What is 69 Sex Position?

The 69 sex position (also known as sixty-nine sex) is a series of sex positions in which two partners perform simultaneous oral sex. It gets its name because the shape of the partners’ bodies involved in this sex position mimics the backward, mirrored, and upside-down appearance of the numbers ‘6’ and ‘9’.

Partners of any sexual orientation or gender can enjoy the 69 sex position, and it is an incredible and riveting method of foreplay and making oral sex more invigorating. 

How Does it work?

Coordination and synchronization are the two most essential requirements for the 69 position. You should be in sync with your partner to both receive and provide heightened amounts of pleasure.

To perform oral sex in the 69 positions, one partner will lie down on his/her back. If the sex partners are opposite-sex couples, the male partner will lie down on his back first while facing upward. 

Next, the female partner (in the case of opposite-sex couples) or the second partner will climb on top and turn around, straddling their partner’s head with genitals above their face, essentially sitting atop of them in another form of facesitting. 

The partner who is on top of the other partner will start the oral sex by leaning forward on the other partner to reach their genitals. Many people have reported that 69 sex is full of intimacy and sexual pleasure for both partners, and it is one of the only oral positions in which both partners receive stimulation at the same time.

What are the different types of 69 Sex?

The 69 sex position, although a singular position, can, in fact, take on many forms which are slightly different from each other in terms of style and difficulty level. Following below are some of the most commonly adopted types of this position:

Classic 69

This type of the 69 sex is exceptional for opposite-sex partners (male and female). The female is usually on top in Classic 69, as described above, facing the opposite direction of the male’s face so that she can lean into his penis while the male performs vaginal oral. 

Inverted 69

Inverted 69 is also for the opposite-sex partners, but the male is on top in this sex type. 

Sideways 69

In sideways 69, both partners lie on their side while lying in opposite directions to meet their genitals to their faces. 

Squatting 69

Both sex partners face the same direction in Squatting 69. To achieve this sex position, one partner sits and the other stands in such a way that the buttocks is in front of the sitting person’s face. For getting access to the genitals of the other partner, the standing partner bends over at the waist and lowers down his/her head toward the genitals. 

Standing 69

It is the most challenging type of the 69 sex position. One partner (physically stronger) stands, picks up his/her partner, and flips him/her upside down. Each partner positions their body so that they face the genitals of each other near their mouths. 

Penetrative 69

In penetrative 69, a dildo or a sex toy is introduced. One or both sex partners introduce a sex toy into their partner while staying in the 69 sex position. 

Analingus 69

In this type of Analingus 69, both the partners’ primary focus is on the anus of each other. The Analingus 69 can also be combined with other types of 69 sex positions, and transitions the oral focus to the butt versus the vagina or penis. 

How to Master the 69 Sex Position?

From the above discussion, doing 69 oral sex is very easy and convenient. But for more intense sexual pleasure, you have to master this position. 

The 69 sex position is extremely hot and sexy, and the best thing about this sex position is its sheer versatility. 

Anyone of any sexuality or gender identity can do (and enjoy) it anywhere. 

Now the question is, how can you master this wonderful position?

We are going to give you some highly beneficial tips which will surely help you in mastering this fantastic sex position. Follow these tips closely, and achieving a mastery of the 69 sex position will no longer be difficult for you and your partner:

Take a shower First

Some people think that taking a shower is just about being clean before 69 sex. However, it is much more beneficial and effective than you think. Taking a shower before your sex session will provide you with peace of mind. Indeed, you want to be relaxed to get a perfect sexual experience. Taking a shower will produce strong relaxation effects in your body with cleanliness, and promotes a sexual confidence that lends for more pleasure.

Warm-Up

The 69 sex position is a very naughty sex position, and as you know, we get more excited when we get naughtier. So, it is very important to adequately warm up before the 69 sex position to satisfy this excitation and naughtiness. 

We recommend fingering and hand play before transitioning into 69 oral.

It will surely set you up for a fantastic ending. You can also take help from sex toys in this regard. A dildo or a vibrator will make sure that both of you are horny by the time you come to the 69, and you can continue to use them even when in the 69 position. 

Both sex partners can warm each other up by using a small bullet vibrator first. Then you can also use a wand massager or clit vibe for targeting the clitoris, vulva, or labia of your female partner to further the intensity, as these vibrators often offer varying speeds and intensities that you can adjust to your liking.

Top or Bottom?

Choosing your position in the 69 sex position is just like flipping a coin. Some people develop confusion about who will stay at the top or who will stay at the bottom etc. 

However, we want to clarify here that it does not matter which partner goes on the top and which on the bottom. The partner on top controls the movement, pressure, and speed of oral sex giving or receiving. Most of the time, the female partner or the partner with vulva always stays in the top position, but you should enjoy exploring both sides of this position together!

Listen

Listening to your partner’s noises is the best way to get excitement and sexual pleasure during the 69 oral Sex. 

In the 69 sex position, both sex partners are giving and receiving oral sex simultaneously. People sometimes get lost in the moment and don’t pay attention or react to their partner’s noises and movements, as they instead focus on their own feelings of pleasure provided by their partner. 

It will surely decrease the true deliciousness, joy, and excitement of the 69 Oral sex. So, to enjoy your 69 positions wholeheartedly, you should pay attention to your partner’s noises and movements and anticipate according to them and their body language.

Use Your Hands as much as possible.

Don’t forget to use your hands during the 69 sex Position. Touch all body parts of your partner with your naked hands, especially the erogenous zones. It will surely produce some naughty feelings and blood-pumping desire. You can run your hands everywhere on your partner’s body, like the neck, inner thighs, nipples, and whatever works for you. 

These tips are best for enjoying the 69 oral sex with full joy, excitement, and pleasure, and the sexual discovery of sensuality that arises with this position should make it a staple in couples’ sex and foreplay.
