How to do the Tea Bag Sex Position

1. Partner A lies face-up on a comfortable, supportive surface such as a bed or padded floor, with their head slightly elevated by a pillow if desired.
2. Partner B kneels or stands over partner A, carefully positioning themselves so that their scrotal area is accessible to partner A’s mouth.
3. Partner B lowers themselves gradually, maintaining control of their weight and depth so that partner A can comfortably provide gentle oral stimulation to the scrotum.
4. Partner A uses soft, varied mouth movements — gentle suction, light licking, and warm breath — to stimulate the sensitive scrotal skin at a pace that feels pleasurable for both.
5. Both partners communicate continuously, with partner B adjusting their position and partner A guiding intensity, ensuring mutual comfort and building arousal together.

Health and wellness benefits

• Enhanced erogenous awareness: Focusing on the scrotum activates nerve-rich tissue that is frequently neglected, expanding both partners’ understanding of the full pleasure map of the body.
• Deeper emotional trust: The vulnerability required from partner B and the attentiveness demanded of partner A foster a powerful sense of intimacy, strengthening the emotional bond between partners.
• Reduced performance pressure: Because this position centres on sensation rather than penetration or climax, it encourages a mindful, pressure-free approach to intimacy that can benefit overall sexual wellbeing.

Variations

Supported Kneel

Partner B kneels on either side of partner A’s head using a wide, stable stance while gripping a headboard or wall for balance, allowing more controlled and sustained positioning.

Edge-of-Bed Approach

Partner A lies with their head at the edge of the bed while partner B stands on the floor, which can be more comfortable for couples where kneeling over a partner feels physically demanding.

Hands-Assisted

Partner A incorporates gentle hand stimulation alongside oral contact, cradling and caressing the surrounding area to add layered sensation and give partner A greater control over the experience.

Comfort and safety tips

• Partner B should never rest their full body weight on partner A’s face — always support yourself with your knees, legs, or a nearby surface to maintain safe, controlled contact.
• For partners with larger body types or limited knee mobility, the edge-of-bed variation allows a standing position that reduces joint strain while keeping the experience equally pleasurable.
• Establish a clear non-verbal signal, such as a tap on the thigh, so partner A can communicate immediately if they need partner B to lift away for breathing or comfort.

Frequently asked questions

Is this position suitable for beginners?

While rated intermediate due to the coordination and communication required, beginners can enjoy it by starting slowly, using the edge-of-bed variation, and prioritising open dialogue about comfort and pressure throughout.

How can I make scrotal stimulation more pleasurable?

The scrotal area responds well to variety — alternating between gentle suction, soft licking, and warm breath keeps sensation dynamic. Ask your partner for real-time feedback, as sensitivity levels vary considerably from person to person.

What if one partner feels self-conscious in this position?

Vulnerability is natural here. Dimming lights, maintaining verbal reassurance, and framing the experience as a generous act of exploration can help both partners feel safe and appreciated rather than exposed.
