POSITION GUIDE

SIDE
SADDLE

Cowgirl, but the receiver sits sideways instead of facing forward. Equestrian named position with a unique sideways angle. Heres how to actually pull it off.

SCROLL

Side Saddle is cowgirl with a 90 degree turn. Receiver sits sideways across the giver. Penetration happens at the sideways angle. Underused. Surprisingly fun.

What It Actually Is

Receiver sits across the givers hips, body perpendicular to giver. Both legs to one side. Penetration happens at the sideways angle.

Bottom partner lies flat on back. Receiver sits on top but instead of straddling, both legs are on the same side, body angled across the giver. Penetration happens. The angle is sideways and slightly tilted.

The name comes from horseback riding side saddle, where riders (typically women in formal dress historically) sat sideways. The position evokes the same body angle. Sex position naming sometimes finds elegance.

How To Actually Do It

01
Start in cowgirl
Standard cowgirl. Penetration. Then transition.
02
Receiver swings legs to one side
Both legs come around to one side of the giver. The receivers torso now faces sideways instead of forward. Penetration stays connected.
03
Lean back on hands
Receiver supports themselves with hands on the bed behind. The lean back shifts the angle.
04
Move with hips
Small hip movements. The sideways geometry doesnt support big motion. Grinding works better than thrusting.
05
Switch sides
Both sides give different sensations. Halfway through, swing legs to the other side. Different angle entirely. Worth experiencing both.

The Bottom Line

Side Saddle is cowgirl rotated 90 degrees with a different angle that hits different.

Try it as a transition out of regular cowgirl. Switch sides mid session. Most couples find the sideways angle is novel without being uncomfortable. Deserves more rotation time than it gets.
