Lesbian Sex Positions: The Scissor

We lesbians know there’s multiple dimensions to sexual play, so today we’re talking about our favorite position for heightened stimulation: scissoring! ✂️ Snip snip, let’s go. 👇

It’s not a myth, we promise! 🙏

Can you believe people think scissoring is just a myth? 🤦‍♀️ It might not look like it does in porn, but the art of scissoring is hella real and hella pleasurable - if you’re doing it right! 😜 And trust us, you’ll be getting it riiiiiiight around here. 🤤

Scissoring is a sex position where you intertwine your and your playmate’s legs together. It’s the perfect position for tribbing - that is, rubbing genitals for sexual pleasure, in this case on each other. If you can wiggle yourselves to that sweet spot, that clit-on-clit and vulva action feels sooooo good for both of you! 🙌

In short, tribbing can be done in many different ways, one of which is scissoring. 👌✂️

Getting in the zone 🧘

Okay, now we’ve got all the lingo down, we’re ready for action. 🎬

This is a unique position, so you’ll wanna stretch your whole body (and especially your hips) before you get to it so you don’t get cramps! 😆

As you start moving, know that it’s okay to laugh. 😆 Sex is a playful and joyful experience, and sometimes getting yourself into position won’t be the smoothest maneuver - this is real life! Go in without perfect porn-esque expectations, and remember that we all have different bodies. Scissoring isn’t for everyone - and if it’s not your thing, you have stacks of other sexy options.

This position does tend to work better for those with more front-facing vulvas, as then the points of peak stimulation (crucially the clit!) are easier to access. 🤔📐😛

🔍 Equipment Definition - Sex Wedge: A prop you place under your back or hips for comfort and ease of access to your sweet spots during sex. Cushions do a pretty good job, too! Sex wedges can help people with more back-facing vulvas get the most out of scissoring. 😘

Switching up positions 🔀

Ooooooo, now we're down and dirty. Our favorite. 😈

Lying down 🛏️

Start with both yourself and your playmate lying on your backs, top-to-toe. Next, each open your legs. Slide one of your legs under your playmates, so you can scooch your body in closer until your genitals make contact. You can try the same position with one of you on your side, too. 😍⚡ Ohhh yeah, that’s it! From here, do what feels good - sit up and make out, play with their nipples, or just get a good, hard look at your playmate’s sweaty, hot, trembling body grinding against yours. 🔥🥵

Top and bottom ⬆️⬇️

Have your playmate lay down on the bed. Open their legs and straddle them diagonally from the top until your genitals touch, then get to grinding, cowgirl. 🤠

You can even lift one of their legs up and use it for support as you ride, filling your cup with more possibilities when it comes to the pressure you’re going for. Experiment with different hip motions - gyrating, humping, faster, slower - until you find a rhythm that drives you wild. 😋

For extra kissing action, get your playmate to sit up in the bed - the more sensual, the merrier, right? And hey, you might be using muscles you’ve never felt before, so give yourself breaks and time to figure it all out! ⏳👍

Tribbing 🦵

Remember that tribbing we talked about earlier? If the scissoring position isn't your favorite (or if you just wanna switch it up!), you can use any part of your playmate’s body to rub your pussy up against. 🤯 Grind against their sensitive upper thigh , their arm, their waist… their face - wherever feels sexiest to you!

Grinding frees up your hands so you can use them to stimulate their body and keep them hot. Tickle, squeeze, and lick their rock-hard nipples, or if it’s their thing, slide a lubed-up finger into their peachy ass. 🍑👅

Keeping it safe 👌

Safe sex is a must, so make sure you’re protected. You can use a dental dam when scissoring! 💦 Make your own dental dam by unrolling a condom and cutting down one side to make a sheet - they’re easier to get hold of (often for free at STD testing clinics). Take that, patriarchal contraception! 😛

Remember our golden rule: there’s no such thing as too much lube. 💧 Splash splash! And you’ll definitely want some if there’s any body hair involved. No one wants it scratchy down there! 🙈

Enhance your sex life with the power of ✨communication✨. Chat to your playmate before, during and after sex to see how they’re doing and what they’re loving. Does that feel good? Is this the right position for you? You can let them know with your moans, but also with your words!

Finding your own pleasure 🤤

Scissoring is a super intimate position - you’ll be closer than ever, so some sultry eye contact will add to the sensuality of your sex. 🥰💕 For some of us, scissoring is what we do during foreplay, while for others, it’s the final orgasmic moment. It’s absolutely possible to climax from scissoring alone. Wowee, aren’t our bodies amazing? 💦

Arousal gel will increase blood flow to your genitals during sex and heighten all that sweet sensitivity. Vibrators are fun too - challenge yourselves to hold one between your genitals, holding it on your clit (or theirs, or both!). 🤯 Oooooft… 😩😍

Getting off

Scissoring stimulates different parts of the genitals - often, parts that we aren’t used to! 🤔 All bodies are different, so the effect will be different for all of us. Your sex is yours to indulge in. 🤗 Are you all having a good time? Then that’s all that matters. 👏
