Gather 'round couples! We have a question for you! Are there times where penetration is just too much to do? Imagine having a series of long days and wanting nothing but to just lie down in bed and sleep. At the same time, you also want to make love to your partner to release stress and unwanted tension. What do you do? You only have energy to do the bare minimum! Well, we might have the thing for you: mutual masturbation! According to WebMD, it's a sexual activity that involves two or more people masturbating to each other's presence – making it a refreshing yet exciting way to explore sexuality and intimacy between partners. Did we pique your interest yet? Great! That's because we're going to take you down a journey to mutual masturbation – it's different positions and how it can be maximized for the best non-penetrative experience ever.

Face Me

Now that we've covered what it means to participate in mutual masturbation, let's uncover the five common yet delicious positions you and your partner can do right now. The first on the list is called "Face Me" because it's where partners sit or lie facing each other with their legs spread open. This immediately provides an intimate and up-close look at the both of you touching yourselves or each other through your own hands or through a sex toy of choice. It's definitely perfect for couples who want to explore each other's body and find pleasure in their partner feeling utter bliss. Plus, the maintained eye contact just makes things even hotter.

Rockin' Side to Side

This second position has the partners lying on the sides, facing each other – providing a somewhat "sneakier" experience to mutual masturbation because couples can sneak their hands in between to stimulate their intimate parts. This is great for couples who want to cuddle while masturbating without sacrificing any bit of intimacy. In fact, since your bodies are skin-to-skin, you should be able to feel an even greater sense of intimacy!

On Your Feet

If you're the type of couple who doesn't prefer pleasure while sitting or lying down, then maybe this position is for you because you'll have to do this on your feet! This position is simple, all you have to do is stand, in all your naked glory, face each other and explore each other's intimate parts. This is amazing for a few reasons: first, you have more room to move around and try different angles, and second, there's a fun challenge of staying up until the end!

On Your Knees

Don't mistake this for the previous position because that one requires you to be on your feet while this one requires you to be on your knees! Whether that's on the floor, on the couch or on the bed, couples can mutually masturbate while kneeling as it provides more comfort and stability for an extended period of time. If you want to make it extra comfy, then you can use pillows for couch cushions to support the knees.

Spoon Me Up

Last but definitely not the least, couples can try spooning for a decadent way to mutually masturbate. The way you're positioned on the bed is similar to Rockin' Side to Side but what's different here is that the big spoon should have the exclusive time to pleasure the other, and when they're ensured that you're satisfied, you can switch places and be the little spoon this time. This is amazing for couples who may not want the fast-paced nature of doing something at the same time! It is also amazing in providing comfort and intimacy while having easy access to each other's genitals! Perfect for those cold, rainy nights!
