The receptive partner on top sex position', also called the jackhammer, woman on top, cowboy or cowgirl position, is a sex position in which This list of sex positions includes descriptions of various forms of sexual intercourse and other sexual acts between people. ...

  • the insertive partner lies on their back or sits down in a chair of some kind
  • the receptive partner sits on top of them while facing them, with the insertive partner's body between their legs.
  • the receptive partner aligns their vagina or anus over the phallus to facilitate penetration.

The cowgirl (yeehaw) name derives from the image of the receptive partner "riding" the insertive partner as a cowboy rides a bucking horse. It is one of a number of receptive-partner-superior sexual positions, another being the reverse receptive partner on top sex position. This position is also used as a precursor to the lateral coital position favored by Masters and Johnson. 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. ...

Features

Penetration is quite deep, and the receptive partner can control the depth of penetration and speed of movement if the insertive partner lies still. Genital stimulation of the receptive partner can be provided by hand from either partner. A female receiving in this position may receive genital stimulation if the insertive partner periodically semi-withdraws, and manipulates the phallus against their genitals. The term penetration can mean several things: In business, penetration is often short for market penetration, the degree to which a product or service is known and/or used among potential customers. ...


Proponents of the receptive partner on top position say there are these advantages:

  • Both partners can see one another, and in particular the insertive partner can view and caress the receptive partner's chest. A penetrating partner may caress the breasts of a receiving woman while they are in a more natural position.
  • A male insertive partner may be able to delay orgasm longer in this position.
  • The position is far less tiring for the insertive partner as they do not have to support their weight while also being physically active.
  • The receptive partner may take a relatively static position, so that they do not tire (by supporting their upper body with their extended arms with their torso almost horizontal), while the insertive partner, not having to support their weight, can be quite active without fatigue. This variation may ease the strain upon the receptive partner's knees.
  • The receptive partner can control the depth, intensity, and angle of penetration. Receiving women may enjoy the dominant feeling of being on top and in control.
  • The insertive partner can enjoy receiving pleasure while relaxing.
  • The receptive partner can easily stimulate their genitals with their hand (if in the upright version).
  • The insertive partner can stimulate the receptive partner's genitals with their hand. Receiving women may find the thumb to be more comfortable.
  • If sitting upright, the receptive partner can reach behind them to stimulate the insertive partner's vagina, testicles, or anus.
  • The insertive partner can caress the receptive partner's buttocks and stimulate the anus if the position is not being used for anal sex.
  • In a variant position in which the receptive partner is on top and leaning over the insertive partner, the partners can embrace and kiss while the insertive partner is penetrating the receptive partner. They can also caress one another's chest, neck, and face.
  • Unlike in the missionary position, in this position the receptive partner has the active role while the insertive partner has the passive role.
