POSITION GUIDE

SPIDER

Both partners face to face leaning back on hands. Legs interlocked in front. Bodies form a spider shape. Bizarre to look at. Useful for couples curious about face to face seated variants.

SCROLL

The Spider position has both partners sitting facing each other, legs intertwined, hands behind for support. Looks like an actual spider shape from above. Mostly a novelty position with a real but limited place in the rotation.

What It Actually Is

Both partners sit facing each other on the bed. Legs intertwined like a pretzel between them. Both lean back on hands. Penetration happens at the seated angle.

Both partners are seated facing each other. Receivers legs go over the givers thighs. Givers legs go either side. Both lean back on hands behind, supporting their weight. Penetration happens. The bodies form an X shape from above with the legs.

Looks weird. Photographs interesting. Plays as a slow grinding position with limited movement. Best for couples who want a different angle and have core strength.

How To Actually Do It

01
Both sit facing
Sit on the bed facing each other. Knees bent.
02
Interlock legs
Move closer until receivers legs drape over givers thighs. Hips meet. Penetration happens during this approach.
03
Lean back on hands
Both lean back, hands behind for support. Both partners core does some work.
04
Move slow with hips
Small grinding movements. Either partner can drive. The geometry does not allow big motion.
05
Watch core fatigue
Both partners core gets tired. 5 to 10 minute window. Use as a feature, not a base.

The Bottom Line

Spider is a seated face to face novelty position. Worth trying once.

Different angle. Different visual. Limited duration. Not a base position. Use when both partners want something unusual and have the core strength for it.
