I'd like to think that orgasms are a lot like a freshly opened bag of Lays potato chips: you can't have just one. With a stay-at-home order and nothing but time, space and opportunity, it's safe to say that now is the perfect time to finally explore the Kama Sutra with bae and we have a list of sex positions that are sure to keep you occupied.
If you're the kind of woman who can go more rounds than a Muhammad Ali in his prime, here are 5 sex positions that will throw you into full throttle.
The Caboose Sex Position
For lazy lovers such as myself, the Caboose is a position that allows you get your back blown out without… actually blowing your back out.
Have your partner sit on the bed or floor with on leg extended and one leg bent. Once's your partner is in position, sit on their lap and put your thang down, flip it, and reverse it to keep the fun going even longer. This simple but effective position is perfect for clitoral stimulation and nipple play.
Ballet Dancer Sex Position
Make sure to get a good stretch in before executing this position, which is sure to keep you cumming all night (or day. Or both.)
To execute, stand face to face with your partner as you find your balance to lift one leg and wrap one leg around their waist. While this position doesn't offer much flexibility, it offers the opportunity for optimum face-to-face time and spanking if you and your bae are into that (but then again, who isn't?)
Princess and the Peen Sex Position
When Lil' Jon told you to put a hump in your back and lift your rump, he was preparing you for the moment you discovered the Princess and The Peen, a position that will keep you coming back for more every time.
Get into this position by straddling cylindrical body pillow, a couch cushion, or whatever's clever, allowing your partner to enter you from behind and give you the ride of a lifetime.
Thigh Tide Sex Position
You've used this time to train for Hot Girl Summer 2020 and now it's time to put those Meg The Stallion knees to use, sis.
Think reverse cowgirl, but make it orgasmic. Have your partner lay with his legs spread slightly apart with one leg lifted and one leg bent, then angle yourself to where their thigh is between your legs. Allow them to enter you from behind and bounce that ass like you've never bounced it before using their thigh for clitoral stimulation. Throw an anal vibrator in the mix for twice the fun.
The Good Ex Sex Position
X marks the spot—the g-spot, that is, and this position will help your man find yours with no navigation.
Lay flat on the bed, head-to-toe with your partner. Then, cross your partner's right leg over your left and their left leg over your right. When you find yourselves in the form of an "X", have them sit up and enter you at an angle.
Try toe sucking for maximum pleasure.

Exclusive: Melanie Fiona On Making High-Vibrational Music & Saying Yes To Partnership
Melanie Fiona is back! After taking a little more than a decade-long hiatus, she has officially made her return to music and blessed us with two singles, “Say Yes” and “I Choose You.” While both singles are very different from each other, they both reflect who she is today and the type of music she wants to make. In our conversation, the mom of two expressed what she learned during her time away.
“It's interesting, even when I said it is like coming back, I don't ever feel like I really left because I was always still performing. I've still been public. It's not like I went into being this recluse person or version of myself, but the thing that I really learned in this process is that I think things take time,” Melanie says in a xoNecole exclusive.
“I think often we're so caught up in it, being on the timing of demand or popularity, or, like, striking while the iron is hot and the thing that I've learned is that everything is on God's time. That's it. Every time I thought I would have been ready, or, like, things were taking too long, I had to reship some things, personally, professionally, in my life. I also gave myself permission to make a living, not just make a living, but make a life for myself.”
Making a life for herself included getting married to Grammy-nominated songwriter Jared Cotter, starting a family, and embracing new landscapes, such as podcasting as a co-host of The Mama’s Den podcast. She also began doing more spiritual work and self-care practices like meditation, sound healing, Reiki, acupuncture, and boundary setting, which allowed her to get in touch with her inner voice.
“I wasn't putting out music, and I wasn't experiencing a number one record, but I was being a number one mom,” she says.
“I was experiencing things that were allowing me to heal and get in touch with myself so that I could make new music from a space of joy and freedom, and excitement again because I definitely feel like I did lose some excitement because of just politics and industry and what it can do to your mental health and even your physical health. So giving myself the space to really just say, ‘Hey, it's okay. Everything's right on time.’”
The joy and excitement are felt in one of two new singles, “I Choose You,” which is more of a lovers rock vibe, a tribute to Melanie’s Caribbean roots. While the Grammy award-winner is known for ballads like “It Kills Me” and “Fool For You,” she is becoming more intentional about the music she makes, calling it high-vibrational music. She says her music is a “reflection of my life,” as it captures every facet, from hanging out with friends to riding around in her car.
“Say Yes” has the classic R&B vibe Melanie is known for. However, both songs are inspired by her relationship. Melanie and Jared got married in December 2020, and the Toronto-bred artist dished on their relationship. Fun fact: he is featured in the “Say Yes” music video.
“When we first started dating, I had come into that relationship post a lot of self-work. I had gotten out of a long-term relationship, I had a year and a half to date and be by myself and do a lot of work on myself alone. And when we met, I remember feeling like this has to be my person because I feel it,” she says.
“And so when we went into that relationship, and we started dating, I was very clear. I was like, I know what I want. I'm very clear on what I need, and I'm not going to withhold my truth about myself in this process because of pride or fear of rejection. I know you love me, but I'm coming with my heart in my hand to let you know that if we're gonna get there, we have to put fear aside and say yes. So that was kind of like my open letter to him, which is why the video is us having a conversation.”
Melanie also shares that saying yes to her partner has empowered her in many ways, including motherhood and showing up for herself. Her new EP, also titled Say Yes, will be available at the top of 2025.

Serena Williams Hits Back At Skin-Bleaching Accusations: 'I’m A Dark, Black Woman, And I Love Who I Am'
Serena Williams is clapping back at skin-bleaching accusations. During a makeup tutorial for her beauty brand, Wyn Beauty, the tennis legend took the opportunity to address the "haters."
“And then I put just that neutral color, that is actually my skin color, and no, for you haters out there, I do not bleach my skin,” she said. “There is a thing called sunlight, and in that sunlight, you get different colors.”
The rumors started after the mom of two posted a video of herself and her husband, Alexis Ohanian, at their daughter's school play. In the video, she appeared to look a few shades lighter. During her response, she revealed that she was volunteering at the play and wore stage makeup.
“Yes, I’m calling you out on this because it is ridiculous that everyone’s like, ‘Oh, she bleached her skin,’" she said. "I’m a dark, Black woman, and I love who I am, and I love how I look and that's just not my thing.”
The 23-time Grand Slam champion also said that she doesn't judge anyone who bleaches their skin as she "stays in my lane."
Serena has always had style on and off the court, and even collaborated with Nike with her own collection Serena Williams Design Crew. However, the tennis champ has now pivoted into beauty.
Wyn Beauty was launched in April 2024 with at 10-piece collection of lip, eye, and complexion products. The brand was inspired by Serena's time on the court and the packaging is reminiscent of a tennis ball due to its chartreuse color.
“Throughout my career, I was always searching for makeup that looked good after hours on the court, mixing products myself and creating my own formulas while traveling the world,” she said in a statement. As she continues to make a name for herself in the beauty industry, I'm sure we will see a lot more looks from the tennis star.
