Multicucharita: group spooning with two couples lying side by side in a chain

The Multicucharita is a group position that links two spooning couples into one chain. All four people lie on their sides on a large bed, facing the same direction, with knees slightly bent. At the front, the first receiving partner is penetrated vaginally from behind by the partner lying against their back; behind that partner, the second receiving partner hugs them, and the fourth person penetrates the second receiving partner from behind. It is a low-effort position with a lot of body contact and gentle, shallow movements; the challenge is coordinating four bodies, not strength.

Anatomy and biomechanics

Everyone lies on the same side, in a line, with heads on pillows and knees slightly bent, as in classic spooning. The first receiving partner is at the front and draws the upper knee slightly forward. The first penetrating partner lies close behind, pelvis against their buttocks, with the upper arm around their waist. The second receiving partner lies behind the first penetrating partner, chest against their back and an arm around them. The fourth person, the second penetrating partner, lies behind the second receiving partner and enters from behind, also with an arm around the waist. Movements are short and come from the hips; because the bodies are linked, any big movement is passed down the chain. Penetration in spooning is usually shallow.

Why this position works

Some groups enjoy it because it is relaxed and very close: almost every body is touching another, and nobody has to hold their own weight. The chain can create a shared rhythm that some people find very arousing, while the side-lying posture makes it easy to slow down or pause. There is no eye contact between the couples and little room for kissing; the appeal is the warmth of the embrace and the feeling of moving together. The free hand can also reach the front partner's genitals.

Variations of this position

Variation 1: upper knee drawn forward

Both receiving partners draw their upper knee towards their chest, which opens the angle and makes entry from behind easier.

The chain stays the same, but each receiving partner brings the upper knee forward and up, resting it on the bed or on a pillow in front. The pelvis tilts slightly and the entry from behind becomes more comfortable, especially for partners of different heights.

  1. Lie down in the chain as in the basic position.
  2. Each receiving partner draws the upper knee forward towards the chest and rests it on the bed or a pillow.
  3. Each penetrating partner adjusts their hips slightly lower or higher until the angle feels comfortable.
  4. Start with small movements and check that the change works for everyone in the chain.

Variation 2: a longer chain

More people join the chain lying on the same side, each one spooning the person in front.

The mechanics do not change: each extra person lies on the same side behind the last one, hugging them or penetrating them from behind, depending on what has been agreed. The longer the chain, the smaller the movements must be, because every push travels along all the bodies.

  1. Make sure the bed or floor surface is big enough for everyone to lie side by side.
  2. Each new person lies behind the last one in the chain, on the same side, with knees slightly bent.
  3. Agree on who penetrates and who only embraces, and use a new condom for each partner.
  4. Keep the movements very short and pause the whole chain if anyone needs to adjust.

Variation 3: taking turns to move

Instead of moving at the same time, the two couples take turns: one moves while the other stays still and enjoys the motion passed along the chain.

The position does not change; only the rhythm does. The front couple moves for a while and the back couple stays still, then they switch. This avoids the two rhythms clashing and lets each couple rest without breaking the chain.

  1. Settle into the basic chain.
  2. Agree on a simple signal, such as a squeeze of the hand, to swap turns.
  3. The front couple moves with short strokes while the back couple stays still.
  4. At the signal, the front couple pauses and the back couple starts moving.

✓ Tips
  • Agree beforehand on who does what, and check in with everyone during the encounter: anyone can stop or leave at any time.
  • Use condoms and change them whenever you switch partners; in a group, barriers and recent STI testing matter even more.
  • Use lubricant: in spooning the angle is tight and movements are short.
  • Use a large bed and pillows for every head, so nobody ends up on the edge or with a twisted neck.
  • Mistake: making big thrusts. In a chain they push everyone; keep movements small and agree on the rhythm.
  • If any position involves anal sex, use plenty of lubricant and a fresh condom, and never go from anal to vaginal without changing it.

Frequently asked questions

Is previous experience needed?

Not physically: it is a gentle, low-effort position. What matters most is clear agreements, consent from everyone and good communication to coordinate four bodies.

Can more than four people take part?

Yes: the chain can be extended with more couples lying behind, as long as everyone is comfortable and the bed is big enough.

Does it allow deep penetration?

No. As in all spooning positions, penetration is usually shallow. Some people find that pleasant precisely because it is gentle.

How do we protect ourselves from infections?

Use condoms, change them with every change of partner, use lubricant and talk about recent testing before the encounter.
