There are other sexual positions that are also harmful. Here’s the top two runner ups:
Runner Up #1: Chef’s Delight
The man is standing on his toes while she’s sitting on a kitchen counter at his waist level for maximum entry in front of him.
Why it can be harmful: Most cases of penile fracture—ruptures of the blood-filled tubes in your erection—occur from very vigorous sex, explains Justin Lehmiller, Ph.D., who teaches human sexuality and psychology at Harvard University. If your partner is sitting on a countertop and—in your enthusiasm—you miss your target either high or low, your unlucky penis has nowhere to go but into her pubic bone or the counter.
Runner Up #2: Pogo Stick
Think of it as standing missionary. You’re holding up all her weight, bending backward, and—to facilitate the old in-and-out—you’re flexing your knees and bouncing her up and down on the man’s penis.
Why it can be harmful: Anything acrobatic like this is a lot more likely to lead to back pain or strains for the man. If your footing is unsure you could fall or the woman’s also at risk of being dropped.
