Japanese Sex Essentials

Original Post

This position is called The Tripod. In Japanese it's called Tachikanae, and refers to a three-legged kettle that was often used in ancient China.

In this position, the man and woman both stand, while the man lifts up one of the woman's legs, then inserts his penis.



Deep penetration is difficult in this position, and it requires stamina from both parties, but it's also a bit of an acrobatic position, so we recommend it to couples that are looking for a new position to make sex more exciting. In Japan, this position is often used by couples when they're in cramped places, or don't have a bed, yet still want to have sex.

Since it's hard to penetrate deeply, when internal ejaculation is achieved, the semen will drip right out. Sometimes, due to gravity, the semen may even drip out of the vagina while the man is still ejaculating. It's definitely not a position to be used when trying to impregnate a woman.

When using this position, please be careful that you don't lose your balance and end up falling on top of your partner.

This is a rear position called The Covered Hips, or Shiki-Komata.

In this position, the woman lays down face first, then the man climbs on top of her, overlaps his hips with hers, and then inserts his penis from behind. Following this, the woman tightly closes her legs and locks the man in place.



This position only allows for limited penetration, but it greatly enhances stimulation to the G-spot, so it's a favorite among many Japanese women. Additionally, the act of the woman closing her hips tightly increases the tightness the man feels around his penis and crotch, and can enhance his pleasure as well. It's also easy for many women to achieve orgasm in this position.

In addition to the enhanced stimulation of the G-spot, the closed hips allow for enhanced stimulation of the clitoris, which is what makes female orgasm so much easier in this position. It's also easy to switch into the Bell Hammer Bend or cowgirl from this position.

When internal ejaculation is achieved in this position, the semen will most likely slip out right after the penis is removed. It looks like it may be easy to insert the penis deeply in this position, but it actually isn't. Unless the man puts in effort to insert his penis as deeply as possible, the semen will drip right out.

This is a side position called the Duck Head Dive, or Kamo-no-Irikubi.

The woman lies on her side, while the man on his side behind her and then inserts his penis from behind. When inserting, the man should lift up the woman's top leg so that her legs are spread open and her vagina is visible.



In this position, it's easy for the penis to stimulate the woman's G-spot and give her lots of pleasure. Of course, it feels very good for the man as well, and some men may find themselves wanting to ejaculate in no time at all. This position does not allow for very deep penetration, and it's easy for the penis to slip out, so be careful when thrusting quickly. However, it is possible to penetrate deeply if the man tilts his perpendicular to the woman's. Since the woman's legs are spread open in this position, we recommend that the man use his fingers to stimulate the woman's clitoris while thrusting.



In order to achieve internal ejaculation, the man should press his hips tightly against the woman's and thrust up as hard as possible, in order to ensure that the penis is inserted as deeply as possible. If the level of insertion is shallow, chances are the semen may all fall out of the vagina. From this position, it's easy to switch into the Foot of the Mountain and doggy style positions.

This is the True Grind, or Hon-Chausu, a riding pose where the man and woman stick their bodies together. The woman sits on top of the man, who's facing upward, then leans forward and presses her body on his as she inserts his penis into her vagina. In this pose, the woman can move her hips forward, back, and up and down, while the man can thrust his penis upwards into her.



This position allows both the man and the woman to feel the full scope of stimulation from penetration. It's a good one for both the man and the woman. In this pose, I encourage the man to move his hands down the woman's body, embrace her, and fondle her buttocks. (Translator's Note: Many Japanese women enjoy light anal stimulation.) Since both bodies are so close together, it's easy to kiss and show other forms of love.



It's possible to insert the penis deeply in this position, but if internal ejaculation is achieved, the semen will drip right out of the vagina upon removal. Please be careful not to stain your bed. If the woman's body is pushed upright, the pose transforms into the Drizzling Rain Grind (#3).

This is a side position from the Japanese Kama Sutra: The Foot of the Mountain, or the Susono.

As shown in the illustration, in this pose, the woman angles her hips sideways, bends the leg on top, and stretches out the leg on the bottom. Then, the man inserts his penis into the woman's vagina from behind.



In this pose, the man can use his penis to apply intense pressure to the woman's G-spot. The key is to aim the penis toward the woman's belly button when inserting from behind. The good thing about this pose is that it's easy for the man to adjust his penis angle, which allows for accurate, powerful thrusting against the G-spot. This pose also allows the woman to feel intense pleasure in her deepest vaginal zones. It's an easy pose to adjust angles in, and also a pose that allows for easy, quick thrusting. Additionally, since this pose allows for deep penetration, when internal ejaculation is achieved, the semen can safely be sent to the deepest area of the vagina.

It's also possible to move from missionary straight into this position, and then switch from this position straight into doggy style.
