A fortnight ago, we talked about the penis problem most guys ignore and this week, is the 4 most dangerous sex positions. Let’s go on this fun trip together.
A fortnight ago, we talked about the penis problem most guys ignore and this week, is the 4 most dangerous sex positions. Let’s go on this fun trip together.
Although
in this part of the world, we might not have an active sex life compared to our
western counterparts, It is very important to get one thing straight: Injuries
during sex are unusual. When they do happen, they tend to happen because of where you’re having
sex—not how
you’re doing it. This is according to Debby Herbenick, a Ph.D holder and
research scientist at Indiana University as well as the author of Great in Bed.
Because your footing or other means of support are unfamiliar, sex in unusual places—say, on your office desk or in the toilet of a plane—are a lot more likely to lead to injuries than a complicated pose, Herbenick says, citing research from the University of Maryland.
That said, there are a few positions that are more likely than others to result in injury. From strained back muscles to the dreaded “broken penis,” here are the four you perhaps want to avoid—or at the very least treat with respect.
The Eager Chef
In this position, you’re standing on
your toes while she’s sitting on a counter in front of you. The sex is
spontaneous.And it is risky because in most cases of penile fracture—ruptures
of the blood-filled tubes in your erection—occur from very vigorous sex, Justin
Lehmiller who teaches human sexuality and psychology at Harvard University,
explains.
If your partner is sitting on a
countertop and—in your enthusiasm—you miss your target either high or low, your
unlucky penis has nowhere to go but into her pubic bone or the counter.Also
risky: Any standing position that has you on the tips of your toes. A
momentary lapse of calf strength could send your manhood crashing into an
unforgiving barrier.
The Cowgirl + Lean Back
This position has been talked about
most of the time all over the world. Although fun
In this position, you as the guy are
on your back, she’s sitting on top of you. Rather than leaning forward with her
hands on your chest, she’s leaning waaaay back.It is risky because like an
elbow or knee, your erect penis can be “hyperextended” if you put too much or
too frequent downward pressure on the shaft, finds a study from the University
of California, San Francisco (UCSF). Over time, this hyperextension can lead to
Peyronie’s disease—a buildup of plaques that causes your rod to bend while
erect. That can make sex impossible, the UCSF research suggests. If you feel
tugging—or even a small joint like crack near the base of your penis, the angle
of your intercourse is a little too extreme. Have her lean forward.
Also risky is any pose that creates the sensation of tugging down on
the base of your penis.
The Pogo Stick
In this position, think of it as
standing missionary. You’re holding up all her weight, bending backward, and—to
facilitate the old in-and-out—you’re flexing your knees and bouncing her up and
down on your johnson.Why it’s Risky: Anything acrobatic like this is a
lot more likely to lead to back pain or strains for the guy, says Herbenick.
Not to mention you could topple if your footing is unsure. The other obvious
ouch: The woman’s also at risk of being dropped, Herbenick adds.
The Over-Exuberant Swiss Ball Blitz
Most people particularly enjoy this
sex position.
It may add some bounce to your
thrusts, but beware: “Penis breaks will be more common in any sex position in
which the penis comes fully out of the vagina and then goes back in,” Herbenick
stresses. Because the Swiss ball creates an unusual amount of up and down
inertia, too much oomph could lead to your schlong slipping out of your girl
just before gravity and momentum bring her full weight crashing back down on
you.Any pose where she’s in the driver’s seat and the sex is especially
vigorous is risky. If she’s on top, you have less control over the in-and-out
motion, and so you’re more likely to slip out of her, Herbenick explains.
Now that we are acquainted with
these dangerous positions, I’d advice you be very careful when in bed and
moreover do not forget the ABCs of sexual education. To the couples and
yet-to-be-married especially. Abstinence, Be Faithful, and Condoms.
