What is a sex swing?
At this point you might be asking yourself, “What is a sex swing?”
Great question! A sex swing is a series of harnesses used for partners to engage in sex and sexual acts together. One partner is suspended in the air while the other partner performs oral sex or intercourse. The swing allows for positioning to be flexible, creative and safe. For the most standard of designs a swing will have a reinforced section for one partner’s back, stirrups and/or support for the buttocks.
Various materials are used in sex swings, but the most popular materials are: nylon, leather, neoprene and durable rubber. Most swings use wood, steel or another sturdy metal to be installed in a ceiling or reinforced on the floor. There are all kinds of add-ons, accessories and positions you and your partner can enjoy, but best of all is the versatility that is offered with a swing.
Why choose a sex swing for you and your partner?
A sex swing is great for the adventurous couple who wants a little more spice in the bedroom. A sex swing is easy to use and versatile in the different ways it can be used. For example, one partner might be laying down, back to the seat with his or her hands straddle or tied while their partner is giving them oral sex or intercourse.
There are ways to enjoy sex with a swing that are impossible in a traditional bed or floor position. The straps and free floating allows for a man or a woman to be weightless, flexible and positioned in a stationary way with fluid movement that feels exhilarating for both partners.
What kind of sex swings are the best?
There is much debate on which kind of swing is the best, purely based on individual and couple preference. Some couples prefer a swing that is easy to put up and take down when they want to be a little more private than a more open couple who will permanently hang their swing in the bedroom or playroom. Some couples want more accessories, add-ons and complex swings while others enjoy simple models.
Typical models
One of the most basic and easiest models to use is the door swing. A door swing is easy to set up and even easier to take down. The door is perfect for couples who want the occasional play but haven’t graduated to the more advanced models. The door swing is also perfect for a couple who wants to be able to easily put up and take down a swing when needed.
Hanging sex swings are the most popular models as they allow for more free floating, offer the opportunity for more complex positions and are sturdy. These models can be unhooked from the ceiling but the base you will want to keep in tact for the duration you own the swing.
Freestanding swings stand just above the floor and offer both partners the opportunity to use the swing sat the same time. More complex than the door model but less complex than a full-body swing, this model is perfect for the adventurous couple who has graduated from basic to moderate play.
Sex swing positions
Now that you have it and own a sex swing, how do you use it? Some of our favorite positions are described below. Just know, you don’t have to limit yourself to just these positions! To understand the verbiage, we use the term “receiver” as the person receiving penetration and the “penetrating” as the partner giving penetration during sex.
- Upright swing position: This is a standing position where the penetrator is standing toward the receiving partner in the swing. The receiver has lifted hips during penetration. The benefit here is the receiver can wrap his or her legs around the penetrator. The standing partner can get creative caressing the partner in the swing’s body or breasts.
- Positioned from behind: The receiving partner lowers him or herself down, belly down on the swing. The penetrating partner can hold the receiving partner in his or her hands for intercourse.
- Oral sex (man or woman): The receiver of oral sex can sit positioned whichever way is most comfortable for his or her partner. Whether you have a standing, door or mounted ceiling swing, the freedom to be secure feels simply amazing!
- Receiver on top: A man or woman will lay back on the swing with the lower, upper or both supported. The partner will straddle him or her with straps or without. What we love about this position is that depending on the range of motion with the sex swing, both partners are in control of their pleasure!
Whether you use your swing in the door, on the floor or mounted on the ceiling, there is something very special about a couple looking to broaden their sexual horizon and explore the passion fueled benefits toys like sex swings have to offer!
