How to make the most out of your sex swing

Yes, you read that right: using a sex swing can improve your sex life in ways you never thought possible. From adding new positions to your repertoire to increasing the pleasure your partner experiences, a sex swing can be a valuable addition to any bedroom.

A sex swing can take your love life to new heights with the right positioning and accessories. But while sex swings can be a lot of fun, they can also be a little daunting if you’ve never used one before. In this guide, we will go through everything you have to know about sex swings to spice up your life in the bedroom.

What is a sex swing?

A sex swing is a special swing designed for sexual intercourse, allowing one partner to be suspended in the air, on the door, or on the other partner’s body. It consists of a seat or sling, typically made of leather, nylon, cotton, or micro-suede, attached to ropes or chains suspended from the ceiling or frame.

The person using the swing sits in the seat or sling, and their partner stands behind or in front of them, depending on the position. This allows the person in the swing to be lifted off the ground and held mid-air, creating new and exciting sexual positions.

Sex swings are available in a variety of styles, ranging from simple and straightforward designs to more elaborate swings that feature built-in restraints, vibrators, and other features. All in all, despite having a learning curve, it’s a great, hot alternative to sex toys or BDSM.

Why are sex swings so much fun?

When it comes to having fun in the bedroom, there’s nothing quite like a swing. Whether you’re using it solo or with your partner, a sex swing can add a whole new level of excitement to your sex life.

For starters, swings are simply original and fun. They allow you to experiment with new positions and move in ways you never thought. In addition, they can add an element of suspense and adventure.

Those with previous experience with sex swings will also have a great time experiencing the endless benefits of the accessory. With so many positions with one or the other partner on the swing, they’re so much fun simply for being a new way to enjoy your body. And you don’t even need a sex room to have one.

 

Different types of sex swings

While traditional ones remain a popular choice for many couples, there are many different types of sex swings on the market today. Let’s elaborate on the best ones.

Traditional sex swings

Traditional sex swings are designed to support your body weight while you’re having sex, making it possible to try new positions and achieve deeper penetration. Plus, they can be a great way to add a little excitement to the bedroom.

Traditional sex swings normally have two straps and stirrups and hang from the ceiling, so you’ll have to go through the installation process. To guarantee your safety, make sure to check the weight limit and how to set it up safely.

Finally, if this is your first time, practice using the swing and think about the best positions you would use it for – read onto our next sections for the best positions.

Door swings

Door sex swings are another of the most popular types on the market, and for different reasons. Typically made from nylon, they allow you to be suspended in mid-air against the door while your partner has their way with you.

Most door sex swings have adjustable straps that let you customise the height, angle, and depth of penetration. This makes them perfect for couples who want to experiment with different positions. Door sex swings are also incredibly easy to set up and take down, so you can enjoy them even if you don’t have a lot of space.

Plus, they’re popular because they’re relatively affordable. If you’re looking for a way to spice up your sex life, a door sex swing might be just what you need.

Body sex swings

Unlike the traditional type or the door swings, the standard body sex swing is designed to be used with your partner, and it consists of a seat that you strap yourself into, attached to your partner’s body. Leg straps and handles are provided so that the wearing partner can control the harness. While this is surely a swing that’s more complicated to use than those above, it will certainly heat both of you up.

Sex slings

For something a little more compact, sex slings are just ideal. Working like a hammock and being more comfortable for the swinging partner, they are great alternatives for those above. Attached to the ceiling or coming with a frame, these slings are perfect for adding a layer of excitement to your life. That being said, they are more expensive, especially those made of leather, so be aware of that.

How to stay safe when using a sex swing?

When using a sex swing, it is important to take precautions to ensure your safety. First, be sure to secure the swing properly. If not attached correctly, it could collapse during use and potentially cause serious injury, especially when attached from high up or having your partner fall on the back.

Of course, you will want to check where to attach it safely – if your dropped ceiling isn’t the most stable or your door is already old, you should think of a better place. After all, these are made to enjoy sex, not to hurt you in any way.

Second, use caution when getting into and out of the swing. You don’t want to fall and hurt yourself. Finally, take things slowly at first. Get used to the feel of the swing before trying any acrobatic moves. By following these simple safety tips, you can enjoy all the fun and excitement of a sex swing without risking injury.

How to clean a sex swing?

It’s important to clean any sex toy, mainly when using it with a partner. And while they are one of the most thrilling sex toys, swings aren’t the most straightforward to clean. First, remove the straps and wash them in the washing machine with cold water. This will keep the straps intact and prevent them from shrinking.

The parts in leather or plastic should be cleaned using a specific soap for cleaning sex toys.

Once all the parts are cleaned up, throw the straps and cotton parts in the dryer using a low temperature or the air-dry option. Alternatively, dry them outside.

Keep in mind that the paddling in the sex swings is thick and, therefore, it could take quite a long time to dry, so make sure to squeeze them out from time to time.

 

Best sex positions to try on sex swings

As you understand by now, sex swings are the new perfect way to enjoy different positions and make your relationship exciting again. But which positions are the best? Let’s go through the best ones to try.

Doggy style

Doggy style is a great position on sex swings because it provides a unique perspective and allows for deeper penetration. The swing’s added movement also helps create a more pleasurable experience. In addition, the doggy style allows both partners to be more hands-on.

Missionary

The missionary position is a classic for a reason – it works. When it comes to sex swings, the missionary position is a great and comfortable way to get started. The added support of the swing will allow you to go deeper, and the stability will make it easy to hit all the right spots. Plus, there’s something incredibly hot about being in complete control while your partner is suspended in mid-air.

Cowgirl

The cowgirl position allows the female partner to control the depth and speed of penetration, so she can go as deep or as fast as she likes. The male partner can also use his hands to stimulate his partner’s clitoris or breasts. Plus, the added height from the swing will give your partner a better view of your body. Just be sure to hold on tight, as things can get pretty wild when you’re bouncing around on a sex swing.

69

Sex swings provide a unique way to experience sexual pleasure, and the 69 position is one of the most original ways to take advantage of this new tool. In this position, both partners are suspended in the air, giving and receiving oral sex while enjoying being up in the air.

To get into the 69 position, the man should first lie down on the sex swing, and the partner should then come on top.

While performing the 69 on a sex swing is as exciting as it can be, you must check the weight limit before. You surely don’t want to get hurt because of the excess pressure on the swing.

Face squatting

When the vulva-owning partner squats down or sits in the sex swing, she receives oral sex while the male partner sits on the floor underneath.

This position gives you a great view of your partner while they’re pleasuring you and puts you in complete control, which is great for femdom, if both partners like it. Plus, it’s fun to swing around and experiment with different angles and speeds.

Are you ready to swing?

Sex swings can be a fun addition to your sex life, but it’s important to use them safely and correctly. With the right precautions in place, a sex swing can add excitement and pleasure to your bedroom activities.

And with all the positions we listed here, we’re confident you will make the most of your sex swing, no matter who’s the dominant partner or the one sitting down. Have you ever tried using a sex swing? What did you make of it?
