At the risk of making this thread NSFW as I guy I've never found the bent over backward position that exciting. Looking at the back of a woman's head and her shoulder blades isn't very much of a turn on for me.
I agreee....I like to see my partner's front.....maybe cause Im so much a breast man...but stilll....I liike to see the look on her face at the right moment also.... but...over 50% of the women I have had carnal knowledge of would claim the greatest pleasure from the "doggie-style" position. ugh...thread effectively derailed
I posted before I got to all of the nipple posts. So much for my concern about NSFW. To explain better. I believe the theory of evolution is substantially correct so while I may have evolved from baboons and dogs my mating preferences don't involve a biological compulsion to approach from a posterior position.
Women? You have got to be kidding me... The guy gets a view of the back of the head and shoulder blades... but also, of course, the derriere. The girl gets a view of... nothing. And, no, putting a mirror in front of the whole thing is just weird and uncomfortable. No romance or eye contact or anything like that... does it even matter who you're with? of course, for those lower on the evolutionary path, the only important thing is that they, in the words of the Bloodhound Gang, "do it like they do on the Discovery Channel".
I was once with someone who wanted to do it en la mode du chien. I told her, "but I want to look your beautiful face" and she said "well its going to take more than $200 to make me want to look at you!"
Romance or eye contact? Pashaw. Doggy-style is all about primal instincts and giving in to your inner animal. Now "Spooning" would give you the best of both worlds. You can enter her from behind, but still give her kisses and fondle her breasts. Whoa, I better close this window quick.
LOL... By the way, guys: if you know a particular woman doesn't like doggy style, but she wants a particular encounter to be that way anyway, something is probably wrong. She doesn't want to be with you, feel anything, or think about it. She doesn't even want to get in a better position, close her eyes, and imagine whoever she'd really want up there. Of course, this might not matter to your inner animal...
