You're also perfectly positioned to dabble in impact play, such as erotic spanking or hair-pulling-only if you're both into it, obviously. So why is it so amazing? For one, if you're the top, you get to see your partner's booty bounce. It's the same way dogs hump each other-hence, the name. Doggy style is freakin’ awesome! For those who need a refresher, doggy style is when the receiving partner (or 'bottom') rests on all fours, and the penetrative partner (or 'top') enters them from behind. A 2016 survey of 2,000 people in the U.S., U.K., and Europe found that 35% of people ranked doggy as their all-time fave position, with missionary and cowgirl taking second and third place, respectively. Ask people to name their favorite sex position, and there's a good chance they'll say doggy style.
