What is the butterfly sex position?

This sex position is not got for the faint hearted but it sure to add some spice to your sex life.

But once you're confident enough to give it a go, you'll be so glad you did.

To start things off, face away from your man and get him to pick you up, so your bottom half is level with his.

Then place your legs outwards, with your knees bent and your feet facing the floor.

Together, you'll create the look of a butterfly - giving the position its name.

Your partner holds you up by placing his hands underneath your thighs, while you wrap your arm around his shoulder for added support.

And while it sounds strenuous for men, you'll also need quite a bit of stamina.

You'll be doing the bulk of the work - not to mention quite a balancing act.

What are the benefits of the butterfly sex position?

It may take a few tries at first but the butterfly position does come with its benefits.

From this position you can easily switch to others, which is quite important for a position that requires this much strength and stamina - you'll be able to quickly leave it if it becomes too much.

But with this in mind you should use caution when attempting it.
