Sex should be sensual, beautiful, and passionate – but never painful. That’s easier said than done, because women, in particular, can experience pain during penetration. Anatomically, every body is different, and not every position is suitable for every couple. While some seek deep penetration, others find sexual bliss in less penetrative positions. It can still be intense, though – with the right sex position. May we introduce: the Konrad position, ideal for intense sex without excessive penetration .
What is the Konrad position?
In the coming-of-age hit series “The Summer I Turned Pretty,” the two protagonists, Belly and Conrad, finally find each other after some back and forth, including physically. While the series itself and the character of the same name have nothing to do with the “Conrad position,” the way the couple’s first time is portrayed fits well with how this position is perceived: gently, sensitively, and tenderly.
The Conrad position is essentially a particularly gentle and intimate variation of the missionary position. Both partners lie close together, almost like two boards stacked on top of each other , their bodies completely pressed together, their faces very close. The focus is less on acrobatic movements and more on closeness, eye contact, and a slow, conscious connection.
This is how the Konradstellung works
One thing to note upfront: This position isn’t as animalistic as some Kama Sutra positions , but it is particularly intimate – and that can be all the more exciting in a close and trusting relationship. Important: Intense sex isn’t solely about deep penetration; it can also be created through physical closeness, as in the Konrad position. Here’s how to do this sex position correctly:
Now the giving partner can penetrate. Since this technique doesn’t allow for much hip movement, penetration occurs primarily through gentle, small pelvic movements, not through large thrusts. Tip: A pillow under the pelvis of the person on the bottom can change the rather shallow angle of penetration.
As with the missionary position, classically the receiving person (in a heterosexual couple the woman) lies on her back.
The person giving the gift (the man in a heterosexual couple) lies face down on top of her – almost like one board on top of the other. Both have their legs fully extended and together.
The right position for intimate sex? An overview of the advantages and disadvantages.
Of course, everyone has a different idea of sexuality and what constitutes successful sex, and not every position is suitable for everyone. To help you better assess whether the Konrad position is right for you and your partner, we have summarized all the advantages and disadvantages for you.
Advantages of the Konrad position
In bed with the board: Admittedly, it may not sound particularly promising at first, but the position definitely has some advantages – here they all are at a glance.
- Gentler penetration: The penetration depth is somewhat shortened, which makes the position particularly attractive for women who tend to experience pain during penetration or who have had sensitive experiences.
- Pleasant stimulation: Due to the woman’s rather closed leg position, the vaginal opening can be slightly narrowed, which can promote more intense stimulation for both partners.
- Intimacy through physical contact: In this art of love, the focus is clearly on love and not on acrobatic skill. Full-body contact promises a close connection and intimacy, which is intensified by eye contact.
- Room for extra tenderness: As in the classic missionary position, the faces are turned towards each other – ideal for kisses, eye contact, soft talking, or moans right next to the ear. The hands remain free to explore the other person’s body and provide additional stimulation.
- The art of lovemaking is suitable for older people or people with physical limitations: Unlike many series such as “The Summer I Turned Pretty,” which primarily feature very fit, young bodies during lovemaking, the Konrad position is also suitable for people who need a gentler approach. A major advantage: It puts relatively little strain on the hip and knee joints and can therefore be particularly comfortable for older people or those with joint problems.
- Enjoyment instead of exertion: Coitus doesn’t have to be about peak performance. In this position, the physical strain is usually lower, allowing for a relaxed and pleasurable sexual experience.
Disadvantages of the Konrad position
However, intercourse in this position is not always the appropriate technique for a tryst. Possible disadvantages include:
- Limited range of motion: This variant of the missionary position offers less scope for different movements than the original, especially regarding the hips.
- Limited variation in penetration depth: The possibility of greatly varying the depth of penetration is limited.
- Vaginal orgasm in women: Due to the lower level of penetrative stimulation, a vaginal orgasm is usually not possible, but a clitoral orgasm is quite common.
But as they say, practice makes perfect. Try out the Konrad position at your leisure ; perhaps you’ll discover your own personal climax. Ultimately, sexuality feels different for everyone.
