Facesitting

The act of sitting or hovering over one's partner's face is known as "facesitting." This is frequently done to make oral sex or anal intercourse easier. It may also be a type of humiliation play or D/s.

The bottom partner falls flat on their back to do facesitting. For comfort, they may lie on a bed or the floor. Their spouse lowers their body into a sitting position while straddling their face. The top partner should hold their weight for safety, even if they crouch or kneel. Depending on their inclination, top partners may choose to face their partner's face or feet. They ought to align their anus or genitalia with the mouth of their bottom partner. The bottom partner can engage in analingus or oral sex in this position.

When sitting, the upper partner typically takes off their underwear. Additionally, they might get their submissive to gratify them via their underwear or wear crotchless underwear. The bottom partner could be semi-naked, nude, or fully clothed.

Why are people into facesitting?

Top partners may find that facesitting gives them a sense of complete control and allows them to enjoy oral sex or anal intercourse. Knowing how much they're turning their partners on is typically a source of satisfaction for bottom partners. A lot of bottom partners also like the feelings they get from facesitting. Many bottom partners enjoy the sensation of their partner's entire or partial weight on their face, the moisture from their partner's perspiration and bodily fluids on their skin, and the darkness that allows them to concentrate on these sensations, even when they are not as stimulated as the top partner.

Depending on the gender of the person sitting on their partner's face, facesitting is also referred to as kinging or queening. This is because, like a royal sitting on their throne, the seated partner adopts a commanding sitting position. A comparable but gender-neutral term for this behavior is throning.

More About Facesitting

BDSM scenes, especially Femdom sequences, occasionally include facesitting. In these situations, the dominant spouse is typically the one who sits on their partner's face. Facesitting during a BDSM scenario can degrade a submission and demonstrate the supremacy of the dominating partner. When they expect their subordinate to be ready for sitting, they could treat them like human furniture. Before sitting on their face, the dominating person may physically restrict their submission through bondage. Or they could use their body weight to hold them down.

Facesitting Tips

To improve facesitting for the dominant partner, a bottom partner can use their free hands. They may touch the top partner's nipples, clitoris, or anus with their hands during oral sex or analingus. For the top partner, simultaneously receiving stimulation from the lips and hands can be extremely enjoyable.

Although facesitting is frequently used for oral sex or analgesia, some couples may also use it to satiate coprophilia or urolagnia. The pair assumes the customary facesitting position in this version. The bottom partner waits for the top partner to urinate or defecate on them instead of engaging in oral sex or analingus. They might take pleasure in eating or drinking their partner's body waste, or they might like the feeling of being urinated or defecated.

Facesitting Safety

Facesitting can be erotic, but it can also be harmful and cause asphyxiation. The top partner should avoid sitting directly on the bottom partner's face in order to prevent this. They should hover a little bit rather than resting their entire weight on their companion. They can breathe easier when they relieve their submissive spouse of some of the burden. For extra precaution, couples can utilize a low stool called a "queening stool" that has an aperture in the seat. Another safe option is a smother box, a unique type of queening stool that secures the bottom partner.

There is an extra risk when facesitting involves coprophilia, particularly coprophilia, in which the bottom consumes excrement. HIV and hepatitis A are among the bacteria and viruses that can be found in feces. The top partner may infect a partner if they are infected. This could happen if the bottom partner consumes the contaminated feces or if the waste gets into their mouth or open sores.
