Do You Get Off On Top?
Chapter 2

Aside from the above listed benefits, there are other reasons that the woman on top position is so popular. A prime factor is the fact that you are face to face and can make eye contact with your partner. Most couples enjoy watching each other during intercourse; in fact, a major male fantasy component usually involves remembering what his partner looks like during sex. Most men find it a source of arousal, as do women, though perhaps to a lesser degree.

There is also a psychological reason why you may find it exhilarating to practice this position. In most cases men are regarded as the aggressors in the sexual relationship and the woman often plays a more passive role. Many women find the dominant position of being on top very exciting due to being totally in control. Many women feel some sense of sexual release and are more likely to drop their inhibitions as they are in charge of what happens. Also for the man, it is a thrill to feel that a woman wants him enough to take sexual control.

As most males are about 30% larger physically than females, this position also makes sense because the smaller person is not bearing the weight of the larger - a key concern if there are more significant differentials involved or claustrophobic tendencies. The woman on top position is also one of the few positions that is comfortable or even feasible to perform during the latter stages of pregnancy.

If you are a woman who has difficulties with intercourse due to lubrication or penis size issues, it is much more comfortable to be in control of the sex act. The woman on top position has so many advantages that it is cited by the majority of women and also by a large portion of men as their favorite overall.
