The best way to explain this is to talk about what NOT to do. With that in mind, I’ll now talk about the top five mistakes guys make when it comes to sexual positions, so that way you won’t continue making them.

Position Mistake 1: Imitating anything seen in a porn movie. This is probably the biggest reason that guys fail with sexual positions. Inexperienced guys think porn is a good model because they see studs banging beautiful broads, and… well, they just don’t know any better. The problem is that sexual positions in those sorts of movies are meant to display a good scene for viewers, not to maximize pleasure for the actors.

And in fact, one of the WORST positions for clitoral and vaginal stimulation is when the woman puts her ankles on your shoulders. With her pelvis bent back that far, she can feel pain in her cervix if you push in too far. Plus it’s a position that puts pressure. (If you ever have a chance to go behind the scenes and watch the making of an adult movie, you’ll see how quickly the mood gets killed when the actress keeps having to stop the scene to go to the bathroom!)

Position Mistake 2: Trying too hard to keep your weight off the woman, in any position. To a woman, sex is a way to get closer to her man. She loves it when he leans on the underside of her thighs. So here’s a tip for you to try… Next time you’re having sex with your woman (while you’re engaged in actual intercourse, that is), get more of your weight on her. You see, during sex, almost every woman enjoys feeling her man’s body pressed hard against her.

So how much weight should you put on her? Make it enough so that after you come, and the sexual frenzy dissipates, your woman will tell you that she feels like she’s being smooshed. Of course, do this within limits! If you’re on top off her grinding her pubic bone for too long, it can feel painful for her.

But the bottom line is that many, many women like to be pressured by at least some of the man’s weight. So save the gentlemanly sex for the royal family’s women!

Position Mistake 3: Letting the woman do all the work when she’s on top. For virtually every woman, sex is mostly a passive activity. So by being the motionless beta male, you destroy the whole purpose of sex for her, which is to open herself up to you penetrating into her body.

Position Mistake 4: Being a wimp. A lot of guys have read too many "Men are From Mars"-type books and think women like it if you ask permission for everything and let them take the lead. Be the alpha male instead and just "do it." Flip her over, move her here and there. Be aggressive and even toss her about like a rag doll when you want to change positions, and… she’ll LOVE it! And don’t worry about it. If something is going on that the woman doesn’t like, she’ll let you know.

Position Mistake 5: Thinking the trickier positions are better. You don’t need to be upside down, hanging from a lamp, and doing something crazy. Just be normal. An old standby like the missionary (man on top, woman lying on her back) can be the best sexual position.

Tricky positions are just frustrating for everybody and often kill the mood because there’s too much "where should I put my arm?"… and not enough "let’s just have fun exploring."

The act of conception has been cloaked in mystery, it seems forever. However, the ancient Indian Rishis who studied all elements of our lives came up with some sexual positions and other techniques that promote conception and pregnancy.

Clearly outlined below, these sexual positions and techniques can be either followed (as an aid to conception), or avoided to prevent conception.

The Act of Conception

Clearly the delivery of a man’s sperm into the woman’s womb is the first condition to becoming pregnant.

However, the woman must be in or near her fertile days, the chemistry of her womb but be correct to facilitate the movement of the man’s sperm, and her mental state has to be such, that the very cells of her body are ready to the conceptual event.

Any one of the three conditions out of balance with the other (available and healthy sperm, body chemistry and mental attitude), can prevent conception.

Addressing the Body Chemistry

The woman’s body chemistry changes throughout her monthly cycle. Near, during and slightly after ovulation, her body chemistry inside the womb becomes less acidic and less hostile to the invading sperm.

In fact, as the man’s ejaculation occurs, a special protective layer (a sort of shield) forms around the sperm, and it facilitates the sperm being able to navigate through the cervical mucus…now much thinner during the woman’s fertile period.

The Woman’s Mental State

Hardly understood, a woman’s mental state determines her body’s reaction to the invading sperm.

The sperm can be welcomed or unwelcomed (to use a metaphor), but in any case, if the sexual act places the woman in a relaxed and stressless condition, her uterine contractions (in response to the freshly deposited sperm) will actually propel the sperm quickly towards the fallopian tubes where awaits a fertile ovum (or egg).

Therefore, the man should discover how to relax and calm his partner, and how to help place her state of mind in a calm and relaxed condition.

The Best Sexual Position for Conception

Called by various names by the Indians in the Kama Sutra, by the Arabs in the Perfumed Garden, the sexual position that is most suited to aid conception is commonly known as the “riding high – missionary variant”. Many ancients called it the Crab position.

Actually, it is technically known as the coital alignment position, and is a variant of the people in the West call the ‘missionary position’ The Crab position however is not only suited to aid conception, but during the sexual act its employment will highly stimulate the clitoris, and often cause a massive clitoral orgasm.

As the sperm is ejaculated into the woman’s womb, the orgasm and strong contraction will actually propel the sperm towards the fallopian tubes.

To do the Crab position, the man lies on top, but above the woman with her legs bent back at the knees, and pulled towards her breast. A small pillow (not too big) should also be placed under the woman’s buttocks.

As the man penetrates her, he, glides forward along her body, with the root of his penis (that part closest to the body) stimulating the woman’s clitoris.

No thrusting should occur, but the man and woman will alternately apply pressure to each other’s pelvic regions A circular motion (often called ‘bump and grind’) can also be applied, and in a short while the woman should arrive at a great and profound orgasm. The man should try to finish as near to that event as possible.

The couple staying in this position after ejaculation will also facilitate the sperm being pooled nearer towards its goal. The chances of becoming pregnant in this position (with the other conditions present), are very high.
