Women in the 69 position.
69, also known by its French name soixante-neuf (sixty-nine), is a sexual position in which two people orient themselves so that each person's mouth is near the other's genitals, simultaneously performing oral sex.[1] This position can be performed in opposite-sex or same-sex pairings.
Method
This can be done lying down, one on top of the other or side by side. Alternatively, one partner can stand while holding the other upside down. In this position, the genitals are approached from the opposite direction, allegedly creating a sensation different from that of ordinary oral sex.
In an act of 69 that includes a female partner, her clitoris is licked, possibly through the clitoral hood, which provides a buffer if the clitoris is too sensitive for direct stimulation.
If a male partner is present, his frenulum rubs against the roof of the performing partner's mouth, while the foreskin and the front of the glans may be stimulated by their tongue.
In an act of 69 between a male and his partner, the partner may choose to be on top so that control on how deep the penis enters the mouth is easier.
One variation on 69 includes digital penetration of either partner's anus or vagina.
The position carries the benefit of allowing partners to experience sexual stimulation simultaneously, but this can also distract those who try to focus solely on pleasuring themselves. The position can also be awkward for partners who are not similar in height.[2]
