Doggy style, in English also known as "doggy position," "kitty style," and "retrocopulation;" in Latin as coitus more ferarum ("sex by the custom of beasts"); in the French language as levrette ("female Greyhound"); in the Italian language as pecorina ("little sheep"); and in the Kama Sutra as "the Union of the Cow"; is a sex position. The name of the position refers to the position assumed by dogs when mating (although dogs, unlike most other mammals, actually spend most of their copulation with the partners standing tail to tail, facing in opposite directions; see canine copulation).
In the doggy position, the receiving partner crouches on all fours with the legs slightly spread, while the penetrating partner penetrates the receiver vaginally or anally from behind.
Benefits
For the penetrating partner, the position offers an unobstructed view of the partner's body from the rear as well as leaving the hands and arms free. Having the arms and hands free usually allows the penetrating partner to stimulate the clitoris, penis, or nipples of the receiving partner. For some women this position provides the best stimulation of the G Spot. The receiving partner may also massage the testicles and penis of the penetrating partner.
Drawbacks
One drawback of this position for some is the difficulty of maintaining direct eye contact, or kissing. Some consider the position humiliating or degrading because of its perceived link to animal copulation, or more generally, because of its perceived submissive (or receptive) nature.
