You may have already heard this term, both vivid and somewhat abstract: face sitting. In terms of meaning, it refers to sitting on your partner's face (well yes Jean-Mi, you should have taken English as your first foreign language!). But concretely, why do we do it? And above all, how do we do it? Here is everything you need to know about this enigmatic and promising practice.
Direct stimulation + feeling of control = increased pleasure!
You will have understood, the idea of face sitting is to have oro-genital (or oro-anal) contact. Originating from the BDSM scene, the idea of face sitting is to have control over your partner's breathing. Also known as "Queening", this practice allows the vulva owner to take the upper hand over the other and "enslave" them to their own pleasure. Queening can have a very positive effect on self-confidence, allowing mastery of the rhythm, pressure, and angle of the position. Finally, it is a practice conducive to physical and emotional closeness between partners, as it gives one of the two the opportunity to "offer" a part of their body to the other.
With or without accessories
As in everyday life, you can sit directly on the ground, but also on a chair (yes, yes, I assure you!). That is why the "Queening chair" was designed. This somewhat peculiar chair is equipped with a hole at the seat level. It allows those who want to practice face sitting to avoid cutting off the other's breathing (and also thigh cramps). This is when you remember having seen such a chair before and naively thought "Well, this chair is useless without a seat! What's the point?". Well, now you know what this chair was really for. 🙂
In short, whether practiced face or butt to the other, with or without accessories, face sitting is a position to absolutely try if you want to feel master of the situation!
We will therefore help you see a little more clearly in the wonderful but sometimes incomprehensible world of sex toys!
For what purpose?
For pleasure! Yes, certainly, but it is not that simple. There are as many pleasures as there are people, so the idea is not to jump on the "best-seller" but rather to ask yourself what you are looking for.
