Ever since I was a kid I have kind of had a thing for these novelty items. I think the board games fascinated me the most. I pictured a very civil gathering of adults who barely know each other sitting around playing these games with such seriousness. You know, like you play Monopoly, taking their turns, doing whatever they were instructed to do.
For some reason, though, when I got older I didn’t really jump on the opportunity to try them out. I’ve checked out a couple of the games, but actually trying to play them seemed too forced. There was no room for flow and spontaneity. I couldn’t see it being the ice-breaker I had imagined either. I have never really needed an ice-breaker anyway.
When I saw the 52 Sex Positions Flash Cards on the SexToy.com website, I expected them to be more of a conversation piece than anything. I had no idea they would have such detailed information. Each card has instructions for him and for her explaining how to get into the position, and instruction for the motion to use, plus a hint and a rating. The instructions actually make sense!
Some of the positions look pretty improbable, but that won’t stop me from giving them a try. Most of them look pretty doable.
The ratings are amusing, but not exactly ratings. For instance, the rating for Counter Top Teaser is “Perfect for a quick one in the kitchen.” Some of the hints are really useful, such as this one for Rhythmic Booty, “She can alternate her position between a straddle and a squat. This will also open up varying speed option too.” Some are just kind of random, for instance, “Prolonging pleasure will intensify your orgasm!”
It is amazing that they fit so much on each card. Some of the letters are pretty tiny, but the main instructions are in larger print. The drawings give you a good idea of how the position goes together. They are not cluttered with unnecessary details.
One thing I did find odd was the complete absence of oral sex. Some, probably most, of the positions could work for anal, but the instructions are clearly not intended that way.
I like the idea of the cards much better than the games. They give you more flexibility. You could always turn it into some kind of game, if you’re into that. I think it’s more fun to pick and choose or take turns choosing.
Yes, these cards could make a good conversation piece, but they are remarkably useful. If you have been thinking of buying a book on sex positions, you might consider trying these cards instead.
