The Best Sex Positions for Your Penis Type

The Best Sex Positions for Your Penis Type

By now, we should all know that penis size has little to do with having satisfying sex. What actually makes the difference is how you use what you've got — whether that's an XXL or a modest, perfectly respectable S.

That said, it's true that depending on size or shape, some positions do make things more comfortable and pleasurable for both people involved. That's why we put together this quick guide to the positions that work best for your penis type. For reference, we're using a "standard" penis as our baseline: 13.5 cm long, 3.8 cm thick, and essentially straight, with no curve.

Starting from that standard, here are some of the many possibilities.

Penis Types and How to Make the Most of Them

The Colossal (large penis)

A penis above that average can actually be the trickiest when it comes to penetration. If this sounds like you, don't worry — it's not all upside. You'll want to be careful about the discomfort it can cause your partner, since that can throw off the whole experience.

Your best move with a Colossal is to spend real time on foreplay — at least 15 minutes, more if you can. Once things are properly warmed up, ease into penetration gradually, controlling the pace and building up slowly. And most important: always keep lube within reach.

As for position, cowgirl works great here: he stays lying down, and she stays on top, controlling exactly how deep it goes.

The Little One (small penis)

Smaller penises have a real advantage when it comes to one of the most popular fantasies for men and women alike: anal sex.

If this is you, leaning into anal is your strong suit — you'll need less stretching to get there comfortably, which gives you more room for spontaneity.

The "Hold On, It's Curvy" Penis (curved)

If you haven't run into one yet, give it time. It's not obvious at first, but as it gets erect, it takes on a shape and direction different from the standard penis.

The curve can go right, left, up, or down — genuinely any direction. And depending on where it curves, one position works better than another.

A curved penis usually has better access to the G-spot, which is a real advantage. If it curves upward, try missionary; if it curves to one side, spooning; and if it curves downward, doggy style is your best bet.

Mushroom (very large glans)

When the tip is noticeably wider than the base, it's worth centering things around oral sex.

Beyond that, avoid very deep penetration and let the tip do the work along the vaginal walls instead. Missionary — with the pace kept in check — is one of the best positions for this.

Banana-Shaped Penis

It might sound like an odd shape at first, but it's actually great for penetration. Being narrower at the base and thicker in the middle makes it easier to enter, and your partner will feel exactly where you are.

And the good news: with this shape, you've got the freedom to pretty much do whatever you're in the mood for.

Rocket Penis (narrow at the top, wide at the base)

If your shape reminds you of a rocket, deep penetration is one of your best options.

If you recognize yourself here, let go and experiment until you find what works best for you. You can keep exploring more ideas on our blog.
