There are 64 poses to be found in the Kamasutra. In more detail: 8 ways to make love and 8 positions for each way. Hardly everyone knows all of them, but most have heard of the missionary position.
The missionary position is considered the easiest and most accessible position for any couple. And the name itself testifies to the long-standing origins of its origin.
History
In the forties of the last century, Orthodox missionaries decided to introduce the natives from the Pacific to the European culture. With this they arrived on the island of Trobriand. While conducting their sermons, they happened to find out that the ignorant natives were having sex in the position of a man from behind. This plunged them into absolute shock, as it was very much like an animal sexual intercourse. The missionaries tried to instill in the natives the "correct" and godly position for having sex: a woman on her back and a man on top.
This position has already shocked the very inhabitants of the island. And already about this oddity, the natives told the English scientist - ethnographer Bronislav Malinovsky. Thus, the name itself was documented and has survived to our times.
About the pose
So, the missionary or classic position is a position for engaging in vaginal sex during which a woman and a man lie horizontally. As a rule, the man is on top.
Now, when religion no longer has such an influence on the way of having sex, this posture does not seem to be the only correct one. You can choose any pose, depending on your mood and partner.
The missionary position is considered one of the sweetest and most romantic. Since the partners have the opportunity to look each other in the eyes, kiss, caress and whisper all sorts of nonsense to each other.
It is also important that this pose does not require special physical preparation from partners. In addition, it is perfect when you don't want to strain too much and come up with something like that. Plus it can be used under a blanket. So it will come in handy in the winter.
It is also suitable for both partners with little or no experience in sexual affairs.
The advantage is the possibility of stimulating the partner's clitoris, especially considering the fact that most women cannot "cum" without it.
Feminists often protest against this pose. They believe that being on top, a man "presses" on his partner not only physically, but also morally, demonstrating his supremacy and strength. Men, on the other hand, complain that, trying not to crush their partner with all their weight, they have to support themselves with their hands or elbows. And high muscle tension leads to premature ejaculation.
In general, claims to the pose have accumulated over the years. It is even called retrograde. Although in vain, since she undoubtedly has advantages. This, of course, does not mean that you need to use it constantly. After all, the main thing in sex is variety.
