Reverse Double Cowgirl: threesome with riding and facesitting

The Reverse Double Cowgirl is a threesome position built around one partner lying on their back. A second partner kneels astride their pelvis facing their feet, as in a reverse cowgirl, and is penetrated vaginally or anally. A third partner kneels astride the face of the person underneath, also facing the feet, and receives oral sex. The rider sets the rhythm. It combines penetration and oral sex at the same time, and the partner underneath carries two people, so weight and communication need care.

Anatomy and biomechanics

The partner underneath lies on their back on the bed, head on a low pillow. The rider kneels astride their pelvis facing their feet, knees on the bed on either side of their hips and hands on their thighs, and lowers onto the penis; the rider controls rhythm and depth, which can be deep. The third partner kneels astride the face of the person underneath, also facing the feet, so they look at the rider's back; they keep most of their weight on their knees and lower themselves only as far as needed for oral sex. There is no eye contact with the person underneath, and the two partners on top cannot easily kiss. The person underneath carries part of the weight of two people on the pelvis and face, and their neck and breathing must stay free; the knees of the two partners on top also take load.

Why this position works

Some groups enjoy it because it keeps all three involved at once: the partner underneath gives pleasure in two ways, while the other two can see and touch each other. The rider has full control of rhythm and depth. For the person underneath it can feel like being at the centre of the scene, although it also means giving up control and carrying weight. There is no eye contact with the person underneath, and the experience depends heavily on good communication and trust between the three.

Variations of this position

Variation 1: pillow under the head

A firm pillow under the head and neck of the partner underneath makes oral sex easier.

Everything stays the same, but a firm pillow raises the head and supports the neck of the person lying down. Their mouth reaches the third partner without straining the neck, so the third partner does not need to lower as much weight onto the face.

  1. Place a firm pillow under the head and neck of the partner lying down.
  2. The rider kneels astride their pelvis, facing their feet.
  3. The third partner kneels over their face, facing the feet, and adjusts height to the pillow.
  4. Check the neck is comfortable before starting to move.

Variation 2: third partner hovering

The partner on the face stays upright on their knees, hovering just above the mouth without resting any weight.

The third partner keeps their torso upright and their weight fully on their knees, with hands on their own thighs or on the headboard behind them, hovering a few centimetres above the face. The partner underneath breathes freely and controls contact by lifting their head; it asks more of the third partner's thighs.

  1. Set up the basic position with the rider in place.
  2. The third partner kneels over the face with knees wide and torso upright.
  3. They hold on to the headboard or their thighs and stay just above the mouth.
  4. The partner underneath lifts their head to make contact and lowers it to rest.

Variation 3: rider leaning forward

The rider leans forward and rests their hands on the shins of the partner underneath.

Instead of sitting upright, the rider leans their torso forward towards the feet of the person underneath and places their hands on their shins or knees. Part of the rider's weight moves onto the hands, the angle of penetration changes and the movement becomes a forward-and-back slide that is easier to control.

  1. Start in the basic position.
  2. The rider leans forward slowly towards the feet of the partner underneath.
  3. They rest their hands on the shins or knees of that partner.
  4. They move with a controlled forward-and-back rhythm, without dropping their weight.

✓ Tips

  • Agree on a non-verbal stop signal beforehand, such as two taps on a thigh: the partner underneath has their mouth busy and cannot speak.
  • The partner on the face keeps their weight on their knees and hovers rather than sitting fully, so the person underneath can breathe and move their head.
  • The rider moves with control: when riding facing away, if the penis slips out and the rider comes down on it, it can bend; lift off and guide it back by hand.
  • Use condoms for penetration and a dental dam for oral sex if you want protection against STIs, and change the condom between partners or when moving from anal to vaginal.
  • Use lubricant for penetration, especially for anal sex, and go slowly.
  • Swap roles often: carrying two people is tiring for the partner underneath.

Frequently asked questions

How do we avoid putting too much weight on the partner underneath?

The rider keeps part of their weight on their knees and hands, and the partner on the face hovers on their knees. Check in often and change position at the first sign of discomfort.

How is it different from the Double Facesitting position?

In Double Facesitting (no. 701) the rider faces the head and the two partners on top face each other. Here both face the feet, like a reverse cowgirl, so the partners on top see each other's backs and the person underneath sees neither face.

How can we protect ourselves?

Use condoms for penetration, a dental dam for oral sex if you want protection, and do not share condoms or toys between partners without changing or cleaning them.
