Triple Missionary Threesome Position

Updated: FEBRUARY 24, 2022

If you're looking for a lot of skin-on-skin contact and intimacy, the Triple Missionary position is for you. This sex position allows for a lot of face-to-face time—and multiple opportunities for making out. While the sex position can include anal or vaginal penetration if you'd like, its main focus is on close proximity—and giving you the chance to use your hands to take pleasure to new heights.


Triple Missionary Threesome sex position: One partner lays down flat on their back, and the second partner lays on top of them like stereotypical missionary position. Then a third partner kneels between the legs in order to penetrate the top-most partner of the two partners.

To get into this position, first have the bottom-most partner lie down on their back. They'll be the base.

From there, have the middle person straddle of the bottom-most partner, like a Missionary position, while facing the bottom-most partner.

The top person, who will be the insertive partner, then kneels behind the middle partner and slides into them.

More About Triple Missionary Threesome Position

The Triple Missionary Threesome position comes with built-in pleasure for the penetrating partner through intercourse. We recommend that this position be reserved for people with less chronic pain and the ability to thrust. We also recognize that, for some disabled folks, this position does not work.

For the other two partners, however, sexual satisfaction isn't built into the equation. As the middle partner will likely be using their hands to hold up their body weight, the penetrating partner can provide a helping hand by reaching around to play with the middle partner's clitoris or penis. Alternatively, the bottom partner can pleasure the person in the middle—or use their hands to pleasure themselves.

If the constant body motion and excitement makes it hard to focus on dedicated finger movements, don't forget about bringing sex toys into the Triple Missionary! For example, if the bottom-most and middle partners both have a clitoris, you can tuck a large wand massager between them to provide easy, minimal-focus stimulation for both people. (This can work just as well for those with a penis; but it may be a new type of stimulation that penis-owning people may not be as familiar with!)

As the Triple Missionary mixes the standard missionary and doggy style positions together in a group-friendly way, most people will easily understand how bodies fit together for this position. However, with people's knees supporting most of the weight in this position, we recommend performing it on a soft bed or sex furniture—or enlisting the help of some pillows to soften pressure points on the joints.

On a similar note, one of the biggest challenges to getting into Triple Missionary position will be to manage all of the knees and thighs. There's only so much space to go around! Ensure everyone is communicating with one another to ensure each person is comfortable with the positioning—and with all of the close, sweaty limbs next to one another, don't be surprised if you need to break for some air! Also, make sure to prioritize discussions about disability, access and chronic pain throughout this position.

As pictured, this sex position assumes one person is capable of penetration. But that's not a requirement—don't forget about a strap-on harness and/or dildo if someone's penetrating parts aren't factory-installed! Or, if you'd rather, you can perform this position this position penetration-free by incorporating a bit of dry humping or frottage (and some creativity).

In fact, if penetration isn't in the cards, the "penetrating" partner can easily move to oral sex if that's a better alternative for everyone. Analingus (AKA rimming) will be especially simple to do with the position of the middle person's body. (It will look something like the Doggy Oral Sex Position.)

Depending on the size of your bodies and the angles you place them in, there may be a lot of weight placed on the bottom-most person. For this reason, check in often with the bottom-most partner to ensure they're still comfortable—and consider swapping positions regularly if the weight starts to feel too intense.

Alternatively, feel free to angle the middle and penetrating partner when getting into this position instead of placing them directly on top of the bottom-most partner. For example, the middle partner can straddle the bottom-most partner's thigh instead of straddling their hips. This will instantly create more room for the bottom-most partner.
