Mostly, these views are centred around the sensual aspects of sexy time: deeper penetration of this, increased stimulation of that, better view of those. This is, of course, for good reason. If you’re doing the dirty you had better be making the most of it.
Sometimes, though, positions are driven by more practical motives. For example, there are a number of positions which work better for pregnant women.
Positions can also be used to help people with injuries or illnesses, like back pain.
Back pain affects a huge number of people, and can unfortunately last for quite some time. Sex can also exacerbate or even cause back pain in those predisposed to it. Does this mean you have to lay of the lovin’ for months at a time?
Hell to the no! You just have to be smart about it. Spooning, for example, is a great idea for everyone involved.
