Group sex is an activity involving three or more participants in sexual intercourse simultaneously. However, it does not mean that all the partners must have contact at the same time. The variety of group sex positions provides for combinations that involve different number of people of both genders. Some group sex positions are possible in a threesome only, others may be practiced by a larger group. The choice of group sex positions is also determined by individual preferences, physical capability, sexual orientation of the participants and the location where the scene is performed. For examples, some people would avoid oral or anal penetration in group sex positions, while others refrain from intimate contact with partners of the same gender, etc. Such devices as erotic furniture (sex swings, bondage gear, smother-boxes and the like) let practice group sex positions that otherwise would appear unattainable.
Unusual group sex positions can often be seen in group sex movies, but what is presented on the screen is not always good for real life, and may be painful or not really satisfying. An example is double, triple or multiple penetration and other similar group sex techniques. Yet again, which group sex positions to choose is the matter of personal boundaries.
The list of group sex positions may be enlarged with the use of various sex toys. These can range from dildos and vibrators to mechanical love chairs, the former being especially popular in lesbian group sex.
Some of the popular group sex positions are the sandwich , when three partners lie or stand one behind the other, daisy chain a group of people of any gender each performing oral sex on the next in the chain, DVDA double vaginal double anal penetration, a popular position in pornography, bukkake group sex multiple ejaculation on a person, line jerk or circle jerk - a group of men masturbating one another, and more.
Group sex positions may include genital-genital, oral-genital, genital-anal and oral-anal contact. They also vary between lesbian and gay group sex, as well as group sex with straight-oriented and bisexual partners.
To describe the arrangement of partners in group sex positions, a system of initialisms can be used. For example, an MMF would stand for contact between a man with another man and a woman. In BDSM, further specification of physical or emotional role in group sex positions is applied, e.g. D/s means Dominant/submissive. |
