Sixty-nine or 69, also known by its French name soixante-neuf (sixty-nine), is a group of sex positions in which two people align themselves so that each person's mouth is near the other's genitals, simultaneously performing oral sex.[1] The participants are thus mutually inverted like the numerals 6 and 9. This position can involve any combination of genders.
Method
This position may involve one partner lying on top of the other or with both partners being side by side. Alternatively, one partner can stand while holding the other upside down. In this position, the genitals are stimulated from the opposite direction, which some claim creates a different sensation to that of the basic oral sex positions.
In an act of 69 that includes a female partner, her clitoris is licked, possibly through the clitoral hood, which provides a buffer if the clitoris is too sensitive for direct stimulation.
If a male partner is present and if he is uncircumcised, his frenulum rubs against the roof of the performing partner's mouth, while the foreskin and the front of the glans may be stimulated by his partner's tongue.
Variations of the 69 positions include mutual anilingus or "double rimming," and digital penetration of either partner's anus or vagina.
In these positions the partners are said to experience sexual stimulation simultaneously, but this can also distract those who try to focus solely on pleasuring themselves. The position can also be awkward for partners who are not similar in height.[2]
