In the butterfly position:

  • the man stands up
  • the woman lies on her back, on a surface below the man's waist height.

The woman then lifts her pelvis (with the man supporting her weight with his hands) so that her vagina is in alignment with the man's penis, and the man then penetrates her in this position. Since a bed (usually the most convenient place for the woman to lie) is usually lower than the man's waist, the man may have to lean over the woman, or the woman might place a pillow or other object beneath her tailbone to elevate her groin. A combination of these two concepts can be applied as well. Generally speaking, surfaces such as tables and countertops tend to be closer to the proper height. If the position can be accomplished with minimal leaning on the man's part, the man is free to caress the woman's body during intercourse. The pelvis (pl. ... The vagina, (from Latin, literally sheath or scabbard ) is the tubular tract leading from the uterus to the exterior of the body in female placental mammals and marsupials, or to the cloaca in female birds, monotremes, and some reptiles. ... The penis (plural penises, penes) is an external male sexual organ. ...


Features of the butterfly sex position:

  • Good G-spot stimulation for the woman
  • Excellent visual stimulation for the man
  • The man is free to stimulate any place on the front of the woman's body
  • Fairly deep penetration
  • Very relaxing for the woman
  • Allows for easy eye-contact

Naming

As with most sex positions, there is no broad consensus as to its name. At least one author uses "butterfly" to name a completely different position.[1]

Genital sex involves mutual contact of each partner's genitals, such as the penetration of a penis or strap-on dildo into a vagina or anus, although penetration is not required.
Similarly to the previous position, but the receiving partner's legs need not be straight and the penetrating partner wraps their arms around the receiving partner to push their legs as close as possible to their chest.
Positions for anal-oral sex, often known as "rimming", are often variants on those for genital-oral sex.

Butterfly and moth eggs vary greatly in size, shape, pattern and colour, all of them carrying certain characteristics of the species in question, but they are all spherical or ovate.
Butterflies are often confused with moths, but there are a few simple differences between them, including colour, habits, and pupating appearance.The large majority of moths are nocturnal or crepuscular (active at dawn and dusk), while there are no nocturnal butterflies.
Butterflies are attracted by the scent, shape and color of flowers, so planting an assortment of flowers is the easiest way to attract the widest variety of butterflies.
