The Thigh Thing

15 September 2026

This week’s shape is one you may be more familiar with, but with an added twist that offers even more friction and support. The Thigh Thing is a playful twist on reverse cowgirl. To get into this position, the lower partner starts in a comfortable reclined position; propping up some pillows under the base partner’s head will allow them to enjoy the view. Once comfortable, the base partner will bend their knees so that the other partner can move into a reverse-facing position on top, leaning against the thigh for that added bit of friction.

 

Once both partners are comfortable, the top partner can take the lead with gentle, controlled movements. Experiment with small hip movements and subtle changes in angle while leaning into the thigh to explore different sensations. Communication is key, so check in with each other and adjust the positioning or pace to find what feels best for both partners. 


The beauty of this shape: one partner enjoys the sensations with an incredible view, while the top partner is able to control the sensations they need. As always, go slow with these shapes, keep communication high and play with what works best for your bodies.
