A Beginner’s Guide to Facesitting

Facesitting is a sexual act that involves sitting on your partner's face. Facesitting is often associated with BDSM role play, where the Dom sits on the face of their sub to assert authority over them. However, it is perfectly possible to enjoy facesitting in more traditional sexual relationships.

Doms love facesitting, as the act gives them total control over their sub. By sitting on their sub's face, they can control their partner’s breathing and even their movements. The dom, in turn, will be aroused by having to endure their Dom’s power.

There is also a physical factor that accounts for the pleasure of facesitting, especially the smell and heat of the genitals (or anus) of the seated partner. These stimuli will sharpen the sub’s senses and increase their desire. The sub is also in the perfect position to stimulate their partner’s genital or anus through oral sex (cunnilingus, fellatio, anilingus) or manual play.

Facesitting is still considered taboo in certain circles, but it's certainly worth trying out, as it combines sensorial play with the excitement of doing something naughty.

Before the session starts, decide on a safeword with your partner. If either partner utters the safeword during the session, everyone must stop what they’re doing immediately. To avoid any ambiguity, the chosen word should be totally random and have nothing to do with sex.
