There are simply no limitations as to how many props, toys, and <\/span>kinky extras<\/span> you bring into your bedroom antics. And while (we hope that) getting intimate with your partner is always a good time, there are a few things that could make your trysts even better.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\"what<\/p>\n

While the more obvious choices would include sex toys, <\/span>BDSM props and gear<\/span><\/a>, sexy lingerie, and other sexual wellness products, have you ever heard of a sex pillow? You\u2019re about to\u2026<\/span><\/p>\n

What is a Sex Pillow?<\/span><\/h2>\n

A sex pillow is a firm and angled wedge-shaped \u201cpillow\u201d that is used during sex for extra comfort and\/or deeper <\/span>penetration<\/span>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

It\u2019s been designed to prop up different parts of the body, like the stomach, butt, back, and pelvis so that you\u2019re more comfortable and can explore different kinds of sex positions with ease. For that reason, there are different kinds of sex pillows that vary in shape and size, according to one\u2019s needs.<\/span><\/p>\n

For example, a sex pillow may prove useful for those who suffer from painful joints or have limited mobility<\/a>, those who are looking for extra back and torso support, or those who find it difficult to receive deep penetration.<\/span><\/p>\n

Sex pillows differ from your regular pillows in that they\u2019re made from high-density foam that holds its shape. The higher-end sex pillows are often semi water resistant, which is good news if you\u2019re planning to get messy, and most pillows are washing machine safe.<\/span><\/p>\n

5 Different Kinds of Sex Pillows<\/span><\/h2>\n

You\u2019ll probably find tons of different sex pillows either online or offline, but there are five main types of sex pillows that are the most popular…<\/span><\/p>\n

1. Wedge Sex Pillow<\/span><\/h3>\n

This is arguably the most popular sex pillow that is a triangle shape. It\u2019s perfect for those who\u2019d like to raise their <\/span>butt<\/span> or hips.<\/span><\/p>\n

2. Ramp Sex Pillow<\/span><\/h3>\n

Similar to a wedge sex pillow, the ramp is also triangular but longer, and is more so a gradual slope. This kind of sex pillow is great for those who want to support their body and for those who want to <\/span>experiment with new positions<\/span><\/a> that may be uncomfortable. Tip: combining the wedge and the ramp, it\u2019ll prove useful for those with significant height differences.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

3. Half Moon Sex Pillow<\/span><\/h3>\n

A great sexual aid for bent-over positions, the half-moon sex pillow supports the hips during positions such as <\/span>doggy style<\/span><\/a>. It\u2019s also a useful mount for masturbation and other partnered play.<\/span><\/p>\n

4. Cylinder Sex Pillow<\/span><\/h3>\n

For knee or hip support, the cylinder sex pillow is elongated bolster. This kind of sex pillow is also recommended for sexy fun that involves rolling motions.<\/span><\/p>\n

5. Inflatable Sex Pillow<\/span><\/h3>\n

An inflatable sex pillow will most likely be on of the pillows above, yet is inflatable. This comes in handy for those who\u2019re traveling, and they\u2019re generally cheaper.<\/span><\/p>\n
