10 Best Oral Sex Positions For Men & Women

Looking for the best oral sex positions in the world, for both men and women? Look no further.

If oral sex isn’t already your favorite type of sex, it’s certainly about to be.

Giving incredible oral sex requires many things to be in place.

The right approach, the right way to touch your partner, the right location, the right things to say (which you can learn here, here, here, and here…)…

But one of the most overlooked aspects of quality oral sex is the position you put your bodies in.

If you want to become an absolute pro at oral sex, the following oral sex positions will immediately launch you into superhero status.

First we’ll dive into the 10 best oral sex positions for women (to receive), and then we’ll dive into the 10 best oral sex positions for men (to receive).

Without further ado, let’s get into it!

The 20 Best Oral Sex Positions For Men And Women

With the following two lists, you don’t need to memorize (or even do) all 20 of the positions.

Simply pick your favorite position, and try that out to begin with.

In no time at all, your sex life will be supercharged into the stratosphere and you’ll both be insatiable.

I hope you’re ready for what’s to come, because your sex lives will never be the same.

The 10 Hottest Oral Sex Positions For Going Down On A Woman

1. The Standard Position

best oral sex positions, best oral sex positions for man and woman

For the Standard oral sex position, the woman lies on her back, and the man licks her from between her legs.

He can straighten his legs and lie flat on his stomach, or prop himself up with the knee and elbow of one side of his body.

For many men and women, this is the default position. But for certain men this position can hurt their neck after a while. But don’t worry! We’ve got some more neck-friendly oral sex positions further on down this list.

2. The Leg Press

With the leg press, you get into the Standard position, and then hold one of the woman’s legs up in the air.

This pose is a fan-favorite for any woman who is significantly more sensitive on one side of her vulva.

3. The Double-Up

In the Double-Up pose, the woman lies on her back and the man holds both of her legs back. This pose allows for a deeper and more vulnerable sense of access to the woman’s genitals.

A couple might also engage in this position because the woman either likes feeling like she’s being lightly dominated, or because she likes having her legs touched during oral sex.

4. Cloud Nine

With the Cloud Nine oral sex position, the woman elevates herself (on a couch, on the edge of a bed, etc.) and the man performs oral sex on her from a lower level.

This position can be especially helpful for men whose necks get stiff in other poses.

Another benefit is that the man doesn’t have to prop himself up on his elbows, so his hands are more free to roam and touch her legs, breasts, and overall body.

If you’re both looking for an amazing oral sex position where you can both easily settle in for the long haul, this one is an absolute winner.

5. Standing Service For Women

The Standing Service For Women position allows the woman to be in more of a dominant position, since she is standing up and her man is either sitting or kneeling beneath her.

This position can also work well for women with more sensitive vulvas/clitorises who want to have more control over the level of stimulation they’re receiving.

Another use-case for this position is for women who are more prone to squirting. After laying down any necessary towels or blankets, the woman can lean in and have as many squirting orgasms as she damn well pleases.

6. Doggy Style Pussy Licking

Alright, now we’re getting into some of the raunchier poses!

With this rear-entry style oral sex position, the woman stands up and bends forward, and the man (kneeling on the floor) licks her from behind.

It has an inherent extra layer of naughtiness to it because the man is basically staring into your butthole the whole time, and it’s super easy for him to grab your butt and breasts from this position.

The closer to a 90 degree angle the woman bends forward, or the lower the man, the easier it’ll be for the man to lick her clitoris in this position. I mean, unless he was blessed with the ability to lick his own eyebrows – in which case, all good!

This one’s a real winner. Don’t knock it ’til you’ve tried it!

7. Face Riding Pose

In this woman-on-top oral sex position, the man lies flat on his back, and the woman gets on her hands and knees and ‘rides’ his face.

Again, this position works well for any woman who likes to control the level of stimulation she receives, or enjoys being in a more dominant position over top of her man.

The man’s hands are free to grab her butt, penetrate her vagina, caress her lower back, or reach around and stimulate her breasts.

8. The Top-Down

In the Top-Down oral sex position, the woman lies on her back and the man kneels next to her and licks her from the top down.

This pose is especially useful for any woman with a highly sensitive clitoris and prefers to have her clit stimulated through her clitoral hood.

Another perk is that if the woman loves intermittently sucking on her man’s penis, this is one lift of the leg away from a modified 69 position.

9. Sideways 69

In the Sideways 69 position the man and woman lie on their sides and both perform oral sex on each other simultaneously.

This pose can either be a foreplay pit-stop, or it can be the entire sexual encounter. It’s entirely up to the two of you whether it’s just the appetizer, or the main course.

10. Cozy Face Sitting

For Cozy Face Sitting, the man lies on his back on a mattress, and the woman sits on his face while placing her feet on the floor.

This pose is highly intimate, and depending on how much weight the woman puts on her partner’s chest, it also has the potential to lean into the more dominant side of the spectrum.

It’s also a great pose for the man to have easy access to touching the woman’s buttocks and/or breasts.

The 10 Sexiest Oral Sex Positions For Going Down On A Man

Alright, that’s it for the top ten best oral sex positions for going down on her. Now, onto the best oral sex positions for men!

And remember, with the following list, no need to do them all. Simply pick your favorite poses, and try those ones out to begin with.

1. Standing Service For Men

For Standing Service For Men, the man stands up and the woman kneels on the floor (or on pillows or blankets, for comfort).

Similar to the Standing Service For Women oral sex position, this pose can take on a more Dom/sub energy, depending on how you engage with it.

And since the woman doesn’t need to use her arms to hold herself up, her hands are free to touch his balls/legs/torso/ass/etc.

2. Seated Service

For the Seated Service oral sex position, the woman sits in a chair (or on the edge of a couch, or bed) and gives a blowjob to the man standing upright.

Similar to the Standing Service position, this pose has potential to be more dominant, depending on how you use it. Or, it can be very sweet and loving if you are both feeling like you’re in a more tender mood.

3. The Face Fuck

For The Face Fuck, the woman lies on her back, and the man straddles her torso and fucks her face.

From where the woman is, she can use her hands to touch the man’s testicles, thighs, butt, or his torso overall.

And a word to the wise: the position looks more claustrophobic than it feels.

4. Standing 69

A list of the best oral sex positions wouldn’t be complete without the epic Standing 69!

This pose takes a bit of athletic prowess, so you’ll want to make sure that you’re both in pretty good shape to pull it off. Because, yes, holding your partner in the air for 5-30 minute is quite a feat of strength… but being upside down for that long is also taxing on the body. So only engage with this one for as long as you both feel safe to do so.

5. Sideways Spoon

This oral sex position is just downright adorable.

You both get to be super comfy, no one has to prop themselves up with their elbows, and your bodies can make a high degree of contact, so you’ll both feel especially connected as it’s happening.

6. Take A Load Off

For Take A Load Off, the woman lies on her side near the edge of the bed, and the man stands upright and brings his penis to her mouth.

This is both one of the laziest blowjob positions on the list (for the woman) as she doesn’t have to exert too much energy, and also one of the hottest, because the man can touch her however he wants and also get into some more aggressive thrusting/face-fucking if both parties are into it.

7. The Standard

For The Standard blowjob position, the man lies on his back, and the woman kneels between his legs, facing towards the man.

The woman can either prop herself up on her elbows, or rest her weight on his thighs – whichever is more comfortable.

8. The Side Winder

The Side Winder oral sex position is like the Standard pose, except that the woman turns 90 degrees so that she is kneeling next to her man.

This position makes it easier for the man to be able to touch her body without having to sit up to do so.

9. The King’s Chair

best blowjob

For The King’s Chair, the man sits upright in a chair, and the woman kneels in front of him, facing towards him.

Again, this oral sex position can lean more towards the Dom/sub dynamic, depending on how you use it, because of the simple fact that you’re playing with and exaggerating the height/levels difference.

10. The Cozy Side Cuddle

blowjob positions, best blowjob

For The Cozy Side Cuddle, the man lies on his back, and the woman lies on her side while facing towards him.

This oral sex pose is a bit more intimate because it’s easier for eye contact to occur, and also for the man to touch his partner with his hands.

The position can also be helpful for certain women whose necks get stiff during blowjobs, and want to prop up their heads with one hand. For more super comfortable blowjob positions (for the woman), make sure to check out this article.
