In the former, sex furniture\u2019s unique and adjustable shape can take the pressure off your neck, hips or back in certain sex positions much like a well-placed pillow can come in handy. The latter category can be made to force a partner into a certain position and feature straps or hooks for restraints to be attached to.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Different styles of sex chairs:<\/span><\/h2>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Queening Chairs<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A queening chair (or \u2018throne\u2019) can take the form of a proper chair, a stool, or even an upholstered box. However, the one thing they have in common is a hole right on the seat. The idea being that the queen can sit over the hole and their loyal subject, lying on their back with their head under the chair, can show their appreciation by licking to their hearts\u2019 content. It provides much easier access for <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/paying-lip-service-top-4-cunnilingus-techniques\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">cunnilingus<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/at-the-back-of-your-mind-anal-pleasure-through-oral-sex\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">analingus<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> as the receiver sits and the giver lies down on their back. Will you bend the knee?<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Lounges<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This one is very similar to the traditional furniture of the same name, think of a chaise lounge or \u2018fainting chair\u2019, but with a greatly reduced width that can be straddled by one partner. The lounge sex chair features a raised hump on each end that provides different height variations depending on the position to allow one partner to contort themselves in comfort. When shopping for a sex lounge chair, look for one with a removable, machine-washable cover to make your life easier.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Keep in mind that a lounge is a particularly large piece of sex furniture, so make sure your house or apartment has room for it. Between sessions, you can push it against the end of your bed. However, to the uninitiated, it will simply look like normal furniture with an avant-garde design.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wedges &amp; Pillows<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While they\u2019re not free-standing furniture meant to take up space like a couch or a chair, wedges and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/what-is-a-sex-pillow\/\">pillows<\/a> are designed for comfortably positioning your body in any variety of ways. Wedges are usually bought in a set of small, medium and large pillows of the same shape, but different sizes that can be stacked in many different ways to prop up and take pressure off of different joints and body parts during the act. They\u2019re modular, meaning you can configure them easily and put them away in a closet when not in use. However, like with all sex chairs and sex furniture, keep an eye out for\u00a0the ones made with easy-to-clean materials when buying.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yoga Balls<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The perfect sex chair for absolute beginners, you might even have one in your home gym &#8212; the yoga ball. When lying across one on their back, a partner can be moved around by their partner for easier access and thrusting, and is especially useful for even more comfort during <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/4-ways-to-have-better-doggy-style-sex\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">doggy-style sex<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>To think of \u2018sex furniture\u2019 may bring to mind straps and swings hanging from the rafters of Christian Gray\u2019s red room.
