New (More Realistic) Names for 5 Common Sex Positions

en it comes to sex positions, sometimes the names just don't do the actions justice. Worse yet, sometimes the names make the actions seem downright confusing.
In the pursuit of truly great sex, we've often advised readers to stop thinking about how things look during sex and instead focus on how you feel. In that vein, isn't it time to rechristen these moves with monikers that capture what's really going on? We thought so. Here are some new ways to imagine five old favorites.

Old Name: Missionary
New Name: The Dark Horse That Blows Your Mind
You'd think missionary would always guarantee garden-variety sex, but that's entirely incorrect. Fact: women love this position. The reasons vary—from the intimacy effect of skin-to-skin contact to the flexibility of various adjustments to the position—but in any event, missionary is far from boring.
Old Name: Doggy-Style
New Name: Mind Your Cervix
As hot as having sex from behind may be, there's a crucial caveat: Your cervix can get a tremendous clobbering. For many women, that can be the absolute antithesis of sexy. The position does offer a very sexy view of you—which any guy will love—but it's worth being communicative with your man when it comes to how intense things should get.
Old Name: Reverse Cowgirl
New Name: Bounce and Hope for the Best
Why is it so hard to get into a groove in this position? It should be simple, considering it's essentially "girl on top," with your back to him. For some reason, however, rhythm and positioning here proves truly tricky to master.
Old Name: Spooning
New Name: Nap Time for Adults
Spooning is the ideal segue from deep slumber to morning sex—or anytime sex into a truly great nap—so it's logical to consider this the grown-up version of a kid's nap time. Sometimes too it's nice to delight in that space between sleep and awake, which this position certainly invites.
Old Name: Girl on Top
New Name: Orgasm Town
On top, you're in the driver's seat, and when you're in charge, explosive things can result. You can manage the depth, angle forward or backward to better hit your G-spot, and touch yourself. Thanks to all that, this one could also be known as "Be Gone, Orgasm Gap."
