It begins by teaching you the techniques to orgasm easily and consistently. Then you'll learn how to have multiple vaginal and full body orgasms during sex and masturbation. You can find out more here.
To perform the Scissors sex position with your man, start by lying on your side so that one leg is on the bed and your other leg is right on top of it. Next, raise your leg and bend it so that your man has easy access to your vagina. Your man is also going to be lying on his side. But he will be lying so that his head is close to your feet. He now needs to slip his lower leg underneath your lower leg right by your crotch.
Next, he will put his upper leg over your lower leg and move his crotch towards you until he can penetrate you. So your lower leg will be between his legs. You will be lying on your side, facing away from your man and he will be facing towards your back. After he enters you, he just needs to start thrusting.
What The Girl Does In The Scissors Position
When you are in the Scissors position with your man, you first need to get comfortable. As you will be lying on your man’s thigh, it can feel a little awkward.
Once you are set up in position with your man, then all you need to do is ‘go with the flow’ of your man. In other words, gently thrust back onto your man as he is thrusting into you. You’ll find that you are using your entire body to thrust back into your man, both your arms and legs. You can grab hold of your man’s leg(s) to give yourself some leverage to thrust back onto him.
The position of your hands and his feet – and vice versa – means you can experiment if one of you has a foot fetish. If that’s not your thing, you can try some dirty talk. More dirty talking tips and phrases here.
What The Guy Does In The Scissors Position
Your man also needs to make sure that he is comfortable in the Scissors position. You will be resting part of your weight on his leg after all! Once he is comfortable, then he can just focus on thrusting in and out as you thrust back onto him.
He’ll be able to easily grab hold of your top leg to pull himself in towards you as he is penetrating you.
Things To Consider When Performing The Scissors Position
Having spoken to a few students of the Bad Girls Bible who have performed the Scissors position with their man, I have received some useful feedback that you should consider when doing it with him:
- You may find that you need to fiddle/fool around in the Scissors position for a bit until you find an angle that you both enjoy.
- You can use your hand to provide yourself with some clitoral stimulation while performing the Scissors.
- Performing the Scissors position on a single bed is tricky. You need space!
- It may not be the best position for specific clitoral or G-spot stimulation.
- The scissors position is tricky to perform for heavy couples. If you are on the heavier side, then check out my 12 favorite sex positions for overweight people.

Sean’s Thoughts On The Scissors Sex Position
I like the Scissors position, especially as a change from regular sex. But to be super clear about it: Just because it’s exotic and looks really ‘out there’ it does not mean that it’s more pleasurable. I say this about a lot of exotic sex positions and techniques, and the Scissors is no different.
Orgasm Every Time. Easily. Here’s How...
I want to tell you about my friend Karen.
Karen came to me one day. She was hysterical.
She told me that her marriage was falling apart because she and her husband didn’t have satisfying sex.
Every time they were intimate, Karen was faking her orgasms. It turns out she couldn’t orgasm during sex.
In fact...
She never had an orgasm in her entire life. Not one!
This left her feeling embarrassed and ashamed.
Even worse...
She stopped wanting sex with her husband, slowly driving him away, and...
Almost destroying her marriage. Thankfully...
It turns out that there is a simple solution for women who struggle to orgasm, whether you are having sex or masturbating.
I shared the process with Karen.
After she followed the simple process, she could barely come to terms with how...
Quickly and dramatically her sex life changed.
We met up a few months later and...
She would not stop talking about it,
“I thought I was one of those women who couldn’t orgasm. I used to think I was ‘broken’ and ‘unfixable.’ This saved my sex life, and that saved my marriage.”
Even if you currently struggle to orgasm during sex or while masturbating, this process will also work for you.
And best of all, you don’t need to do anything weird or uncomfortable to start having the best orgasms and sex of your life.

My wife and used the scissors hold and Full Nelson while wrestling 🤼 with each other. We then decided to use them while having sex . Sex was always good but now it’s amazing hot and wild
lizzi says
We naturally use this as our easy no morning breath early wake up sex. As I wake up more I grab his top leg and grind into his thigh more socket style. So good and lazy. He lays on his side and I on my back and wiggle down onto him leg closest to his head over his hip, other leg between his and start grinding torsos slowing inching away from each other. We will lock arms monkey grip for locking leverage too
Ms says
Wow
This is a great way
Liz says
One of my favorites because of the deep penetration. Long time favorite of mine I don’t have problems being stimulated. Not sure if because my guy enters from behind then I throw my leg over his hip. Doggy style or variations thereof is my guys favorite still but the scissors is second favorite
MJ says
