If your partner has a curved penis, consider yourself blessed, because that curve has sexual superpowers just waiting to be discovered. “A curved penis can offer fresh opportunities to try new positions and angles, and stimulate typically untouched erogenous zones,” says relationship therapist Joy Berkheimer, PhD, LMFT, chief sexologist at SXWA.
As Carol Queen, PhD, staff sexologist at Good Vibrations, puts it: There’s a reason why so many internal stimulation toys are curved. They can hit internal hot spots that straight peens usually can’t, unlocking a world of potential sensations you might not have ever felt before. In fact, a well-aimed curved penis has the potential to help you orgasm from penetration alone, even if you typically only orgasm with additional manual stimulation, says NYU professor of human sexuality Zhana Vrangalova, sexpert for Lelo.
Don’t know where to start? "It’s all a case of playing to strengths with curved penis sex positions,” says sex educator Anna Richards, founder of the ethical porn site Frolicme.com. Think about the angles of your bodies and what parts you want where—usually the most pleasurable positions will be ones where the penis slides against internal pleasure spots on the roof of the vaginal canal. It’s a bit like Tetris; moving parts around until you get the perfect fit. “Play around like your bodies are puzzle pieces and have fun feeling out how they fit together best,” says sociologist Sarah Melancon, PhD, clinical sexologist at Sex Toy Collective.
Don’t be afraid to experiment until you find something that works for you both. The best way to do that? Open communication, says Berkheimer. “Talking about what feels good, adjusting positions as needed, and going slow can turn discomfort into a fun exploration of anatomy and sensation,” she says. “Pleasure truly lives in our openness to explore, adapt, and stay curious.”
Ready to hug those curves in the best possible way? Here are 15 positions specially designed for your favorite upward, downward, or sideways-bending penis or strap-on.
The Pretzel Dip
How to Do It: For a sideways curve, work the angles with the pretzel dip position. The receiving partner lies on their side, aligning themselves so they’re facing in the same direction as their partner’s curve. The penetrating partner kneels or sits to straddles their partner’s bottom leg. The penetrating partner then grabs the top leg and wraps it around their side. Add pillows as you’d like for this or any position. “This can help relax the muscles and tilt the pelvis just enough to accommodate any curves, making penetration smoother and more pleasurable, especially for those with more pronounced curves,” says Berkheimer.
Pros: This is great for a left or right curve, but serves deep penetration and eye contact, whether curved or straight.
Cons: There a bit of Twister-esque learning curve. Consult the drawing and keep trying til you get it.
Switch It Up: Try a grinding motion instead of thrusts for more direct pleasure.
Make It Hotter: Feel quite free to add some clitoral stimulation using fingers or a clit-sucking toy.

Reverse Cowgirl
How to Do It: Reverse Cowgirl is an excellent choice to ride a downward curve. To refresh: The giver lies on their back. The receiver sits on top, straddling their partner. It’s like cowgirl except the person on top is facing their partner’s feet (hence the whole “reverse” part.)
Pros: “Cowgirl and reverse cowgirl both provide control over depth and angle, allowing the receiver to adjust their position to suit the curve,” says Berkheimer.
Cons: The person on top can get sore thighs. If they tuck their feet under their partner’s thighs, they’ll get more leverage.
Switch It Up: Try having the person on the bottom do the thrusting while the person on top just enjoys the ride. (They can use a free hand to hold a powerful bullet vibe against the receiver's clit.)
Make It Hotter: A seated version in a cushy chair lets the top person hold onto the arm rests for more leverage and easier thrusting.

Mr. Perfect
How to Do It: If you don’t have a penis handy, you can purchase one! Get a dildo with a noticeable curve (you can eyeball this, but ones designated as g-spot toys tend to be the curvier ones.) Lie on your bed comfortably, spread your legs, and slide the dildo inside your vagina. Go ahead and take your time to seduce yourself.
Pros: No wet spot, whole bed to yourself.
Cons: If you’re not that into penetration, this might not do it for you. But! Even if you’re a super clit-focus person, adding penetration can make regular clit rubbing feel deeper and more intense.
Switch It Up: Experiment with different curve directions—try turning the toy up, down or to either side.
Make It Hotter: Try a rabbit-type vibe for vibration and external stimulation. Some of them also throw in some thrusting or a shaft that flexes up.

Reverse Missionary
How to Do It: Flip missionary to make it fit the curve. “This works best for someone with a downward-pointing penis,” says Richards. The receiver lies on their back with their partner on top facing away, so your heads are facing each other’s feet (like in 69). The giver holds themselves up on their hands and slightly bends their legs to penetrate.
Pros: This one provides a new angle to penetration and works ~very~ well for a downward curve.
Cons: Not great for eye contact. Keep connected with dirty/sweet talk or just emphatic moans and sighs.
Switch It Up: “If it helps your bodies line up, you can put a pillow under your butt to lift yourself up higher,” she says.
Make It Hotter: Pop a butt plug in the giver’s anus for extra sensations.

The Plow
How to Do It: The receiver lies on their back, legs bent back over their body like the plow yoga position. The giver kneels to enter, or they can lean down to rest on their forearms. See what works best for you here.
Pros: “This allows for deep upward-angled penetration even if a penis curves downward. For those whose penises curve upward or sideways, it’ll offer extra intense stimulation of the upper wall of the vagina,” says Richards.
Cons: Doing the full-on plow requires a LOT of flexibility as the receiver. Try a modified version with the receiver’s legs back, but only a far as they feel comfortable.
Switch It Up: Anal, anyone?
Make It Hotter: A vibrating cock ring can further amp the stimulation for both of you.

Cat Style
How to Do It: Get in doggy style position with the receiver on all fours and the giver kneeling behind. The receiver lowers themselves onto their elbows and pushes their butt up to ride that curve.
Pros: "This enables deep penetration and precision with aim,” says Richards.
Cons: Rear-entry positions aren’t great for clitoral stim, so the receiver can get what they need via a partner reach-around or a helpful toy.
Switch It Up: The receiver can shake their ass, both to help guide penetration and just to be sassy.
Make It Hotter: Are you the receiver? “You can let your partner know what side of your vagina is most sensitive—if you don’t know, experiment with your fingers or toys—and they can aim accordingly. If your favorite side is also the side their penis curves to, positions like this one where they're behind you are perfect.”

The Swinging Pogo Stick
How to Do It: Try a door-mounted sex swing for an upward curve. The receiver sits in the swing and the giver stands to enter. The giver can hold onto the swing’s straps for leverage. The giver bobs up and down, and thrusts.
Pros: Deep penetration, plus weightless sex.
Cons: Requires purchase of a sex swing. Some of them aren’t too spendy, though.
Switch It Up: The non-swing version of the pogo stick position is a standing position where the penetrating partner bobs up and down to thrust. Give it a go.
Make It Hotter: Let each other know how much you’re into it but amping up the moans.

The Sidewinder
How to Do It: Working with a sideways curve? Lie on your sides, facing each other. The receiver wraps their arms and legs around their partner to pull them close.
Pros: Lots of close contact and opportunities for eye gazing.
Cons: Not great for hard, fast thrusting. If that’s what you’re craving, turn it over on its side and thrust away.
Switch It Up: “For those who point left or right, a positioning pillow supports the side or hips for extra leverage for both the giver and receiver,” says Brian Robinson, owner of The Pleasure Chest. “A wedge can support the penetrator’s elbow while they lean on their side, while the receiver lies on their back with their legs spread."
Make It Hotter: “The receiver can open their legs even wider for a more filling experience,” says Robinson.
The Grinder
How to Do It: Get in missionary position with receiver on their back and the giver on top. Then—this is the important part—the giver shifts their body higher, so the top of their shaft is rubbing against the clit more directly. The move is more of grind than a thrust.
Pros: This is the Coital Alignment Technique (CAT), and with an upward curve, it’s really really good.
Cons: Can be difficult if the giver has mobility issues. If so, flip it upside down so the giver is on the bottom.
Switch It Up: Mix grinding and thrusting to give everyone what they want.
Make It Hotter: Try for mutual orgasms. Even if the timing isn’t quite right (normal), you’ll still be tuning into to each other in a deeper way.

The Mind Bender
How to Do It: The receiver lies on their back with their legs in the air. The giver kneels to enter. The thrusting is an in-and-up motion, much like the way the receiver’s eyes will be rolling back in their head.
Pros: Delicious upper-vaginal-wall stim.
Cons: The receiver might not be flexible enough to keep their legs up. Totally fine to put them down or lean them against their partner's chest.
Switch It Up: A pillow propped under the receiver’s hips will aim the penis tip with surgical precision.
Make It Hotter: The receiver can look into their partner’s eyes and start rubbing themselves, letting their partner see how turned on they are.
The Downtower
How to Do It: If the giver is rocking a downward curve, it's time to experience the true glory of a rear-entry position. The penetrating partner kneels, sitting back on their heels. The receiver lies flat on their belly raising their hips and bending one leg up.
Pros: Perfectly targeted inner stimulation.
Cons: If you’re the one on the bottom, clit stim comes from you, my friend. Use a hand or toy.
Switch It Up: The receiver gets on all fours, sliding back so they're sitting on their partner’s lap, then leans forward on their elbows (or hands, depending on recent yoga attendance).
Make It Hotter: The receiver can wrap the top of their feet back around their partner’s butt to pull them deeper while the penetrating partner does a reach-around to stroke their partner.
The Curve Ball
How to Do It: The receiver lies on their side. The giver comes in behind to enter. Yes, it’s basically spooning, but spooning with a purpose.
Pros: This position makes excellent use of an upward curve to give the receiver extra stimulation in the sensitive spot behind their clit.
Cons: If the giver doesn’t have an upward curve, it might not have the same oomph. If that’s y’all, skip to “Make It Hotter.”
Switch It Up: This is a lot more fun if the receiver presses a small bullet vibe to their vulva.
Make It Hotter: Got a left or right curve? Take advantage of it. The giver raises themselves in a plank pose (like in missionary position), and the receiver lies up on their side curled up in a ball. The giver comes in at T-angle with their arms in front of the giver’s chest, legs behind the giver’s back. If the penis curves left, receiver is on their right side, and vice versa.
The Clusterfuck
How to Do It: This one is kind of a gender-reversed, turned and upside-down missionary. The giver lies on their back, resting their upper body on their elbows or some comfortable pillows. The receiver straddles their partner, facing their feet, a la reverse-cowgirl.
Pros: The receiver gets the feeling of being the penetrating partner instead of receiver—which can be pretty damn powerful if that's not their usual role—plus they can put that curve exactly where they want it.
Cons: No clit stim for the receiver, but they can prop themselves up on an elbow and use their other hand to stroke themselves.
Switch It Up: Have the person on top hold themselves still and the person on the bottom can thrust upwards.
Make It Hotter: If you'e craving a super tight fit, the receiver can slide their legs down so their feet are alongside their partner’s head and press their legs together.

The T-Bone
How to Do It: The receiver lies on their back with their legs together and lifted into the air. The giver lies on their side by their partner’s hips and enters perpendicularly. You’ll be forming kind of a T shape.
Pros: An east/west curve turns a fine position into ohmygodyes amazing position.
Cons: It can be tiring for the giver to keep their legs up. Drape ‘em over the giver’s hips and the receiver will have the bonus of being able to pull their partner in closer.
Switch It Up: Which side the giver lies depends on the direction of their curve. Generally, you’ll want the curve pointing upward to stimulate the top wall of the vagina, but switch it around and see what you two like.
Make It Hotter: The giver can stroke themselves during penetration. This is extra good for the shyer among us because they can stroke away while avoiding direct eye contact.
