Anatomy and biomechanics
In this position, the penetrating partner is on their back, while the receptive partner is on their knees and leaning forward, enabling rear penetration. The receptive partner controls the rhythm and depth of penetration.
Why this position works
This position allows for high levels of control for the receptive partner, facilitating stimulation of the G spot or A point, depending on preference. Additionally, the penetrating partner can enjoy a unique and stimulating view.
Reverse Cowgirl: sexual position with rear penetration
The Inverted Cowgirl is a sexual position where the receptive partner is positioned above the penetrating partner, in an inverted position, allowing for adjustable control and penetration depth.
Also known as: Inverted Cowboy / Inverted Doggy / Reverse Mount
Variations of this position
Reverse Cowgirl with Hand Support
The receptive partner supports themselves on their hands instead of their elbows, allowing for greater mobility and control.
- The penetrating partner lies on their back with their legs slightly bent.
- The receptive partner kneels and leans forward, supporting themselves with their hands on the floor or the bed.
- The receptive partner controls the rhythm and depth of penetration, moving forward and backward.
Reverse Cowgirl with Legs Open
The receptive person opens their legs wider, allowing for deeper penetration and greater stimulation of the G or A spot.
- The penetrating person lies on their back with their legs slightly bent.
- The receptive person kneels and opens their legs wider, leaning forward.
- The receptive person controls the rhythm and depth of penetration, moving back and forth.
Reverse Cowgirl with Forearm Support
The receptive person supports themselves on their forearms, allowing for greater stability and control.
- The penetrating person lies on their back with their legs slightly bent.
- The receptive person gets on their knees and leans forward, supporting themselves on their forearms on the floor or the bed.
- The receptive person controls the rhythm and depth of penetration, moving forward and backward.
✓ Tips
- Ensure that both partners are comfortable and use cushions or pillows to support their knees and hands.
- Communicate your preferences and limits to adjust the rhythm and depth of penetration.
- Avoid sudden movements to prevent lower back or joint injuries.

Safety and evidence
Scientific context for common terms used on this page. Keeping these terms makes the content easier to understand; the sources clarify what is established and what remains uncertain.
G-spot: what the evidence says
“G-spot” is a widely used term for a sensitive area of the anterior vaginal wall. Scientific literature has not established a discrete anatomical structure with an agreed location, size and nature; sensitivity and response can vary between individuals.
A-spot / AFE zone: limited evidence
The “A-spot” or AFE zone has been proposed to describe a deeper area of the anterior vaginal wall. Available evidence is limited and does not support presenting it as a confirmed anatomical structure.
