The Top Pegging Positions That Make a Strap-On Feel the Best
When it comes to power exchange, few kinks come close to the liberation you feel when you let down the walls and embrace pegging for the first time. Whether you’re into being totally dominated or just enjoy relinquishing control for a short while, there’s no denying how amazing taking a strap-on can be.
But if you’re new to the exciting (and scientifically proven to be pleasurable) world of getting strapped, you should consider the many position options that you have.
The position you choose plays a huge part in how enjoyable your session is, from how deep the penetration is to how visually stimulated you are, to how much control you retain.
So, we’re going to look at the best positions for pegging and how to get the most out of your strap-on experience.
Preparation Matters As Much As Position
Which position is definitively the best is subjective and really comes down to personal preference. What remains universal, though, is that preparation is essential. Proper preparation involves three main steps. Equipment, hygiene and communication.
Equipment
First things first, you need to make sure you’ve got everything you’ll need for a session. If you’re seeing one of our London strapon escorts, they’ll have all the equipment you’ll need, but it’s good to know.
Having the right toys is important as the size, shape and material of your strapon will affect the experience. As a general rule of thumb, larger, curved, and harder straps require more experience but can be more stimulating on your P-spot if you know how to use them.
Other items you might want are condoms (to prevent the spread of infection and make cleanup easier), gloves (if fingering is on the menu), a butt plug (if you’re going to work up to full insertion) and most importantly, lube (lots of it).
Hygiene
Pegging can get messy, but if you take a few simple steps before your session, you can massively reduce your risk of any accidents:
- Hopefully obvious, but shower regularly and before your session
- Avoid foods that could give you a dicky tummy (spicy and fatty foods in particular) and up your fibre intake for a few days beforehand. Fruits, veggies and beans are your friends when it comes to fibre.
- Douche a few hours beforehand. We recommend taking this step earlier in the day so your body has time to settle from any irritation it may cause.
Communication
Last but not least, make sure you’re both firmly on the same page. Describe what you want to get from the experience and any boundaries you have beforehand, but also make sure that you keep that honest communication up throughout. If something doesn’t feel good, it’s important to say so.
The Classic - Doggy Style
Ok, now we’re all clean and kitted out, we can get into the good stuff, and it makes sense to start with the first position that comes to most people’s minds when you say “pegging”: Doggy style.
What makes this position work well is flexibility. Small changes in stance, spacing, or support can significantly affect comfort. It allows for gradual pacing, which is important for staying relaxed and present.
Once you’ve settled in, experiment with the position. Try your weight on your hands at first, then slowly move down to your forearms, arch your back, bring your legs in or spread them further apart.
Doggy is also one of the best positions for the giver’s leverage, so if you really want to get pounded, this is the one.
Best For Control: Cowboy and Reverse Cowboy
For bottoms who like to stay in control, cowboy will be your go-to. We recommend starting in a squatting position and slowly lowering yourself down so you can ease into it a little more easily. Once that feels comfortable, then you can move to your knees and bounce and grind to your heart’s content.
This is a great position for first-timers, as you don’t need to rely on the “top” as much. If something feels good, you can lean into it instantly, or if something is uncomfortable, you’re in a better position to back off or change angles. Having said that, strapon escorts are known for their patience and intuition with beginners, so don’t worry about not being able to try other positions.
Reverse cowboy requires a little more practice and experience to get the angle just right, but that switch-up can be intensely pleasurable.
Best All-Rounder: Missionary
If it’s raw, intense intimacy and unmatched versatility that you’re looking for, then missionary and its variants are for you, but what makes missionary so great? First off, face-to-face positions are inherently more intimate and visually stimulating than being taken from behind. Eye contact, especially in such a vulnerable position, can be highly erotic, liberating and intimate. Lots of men get a rush of excitement from seeing someone taking control of them in this way, and for a real domme, there’s nothing better than that.
Next, missionary has so many ways to switch it up to change angle, depth and direction. Try lying on the end of a bed or bench with your partner standing, experiment with having your legs up or down, spread wide or tucked in to your body or even one leg at a time. All of these things can change the sensation and bring you closer to that coveted P-spot.
There’s just more to do in missionary. You can see each other, you can touch each other, and you can switch it up easily.
Best for P Spot: Speed Bump
The prostate is so densely packed with nerve endings that stimulating it can result in some of the most intense, full-body orgasms a man can achieve. It’s generally felt just a few inches inside the anus and up towards the belly button. That’s why the speed bump is one of the best positions for prostate stimulation.
Lie on your front with a pillow or support under your hips to angle your bottom upwards. Your partner then penetrates from above, giving that downwards angle needed to hit the prostate.
Not only that, but it’s comfortable and low effort for you. All you need to do is lie back and let her do the work.
Most sensual: Little Spoon
Little spoon is one of the most underrated but effective pegging positions. Side-by-side positioning creates a sense of safety and reassurance that can be extremely relaxing and comforting during an intimate act like this.
With both parties comfortably lying down, it gives your mind more freedom to focus on things like how you use your hands or dirty talk. It also forces you both to be very close physically, which can further heighten the intimacy and sensuality.
So, these are our favourite positions for strapon sex - it’s important to remember that each person is different in terms of both desires and anatomy. What works for one won’t work for another, so it’s all about experimenting and finding which positions work best for you.
