Although some people desire a certain height to their partners, many see height as insignificant when choosing a partner. However, during sex, a certain degree of genital alignment is a necessity, and when there's a height difference between you and your partner, achieving this pelvic synchrony can stump you in the act!

If you or your partner are a shorter man, it's useful to bear in mind that some sex positions will simply work better for you than others. Missionary and doggy are classics that allow for coital alignment, but there are also a variety of sex positions that you can sprinkle into the mix, so here's one to try to give your short king a leg up in the bedroom!
The crossed buttocks
For men who are shorter than their partners, avoiding positions that require you to be face-to-face is a must if you want to avoid any possible awkwardness. Therefore, this position, which angles you away from your partner, is the perfect way to enjoy this pleasurable act without bumping chin to chest.
How to do it
This position might seem hard to achieve, but we promise it's deceptively easy (although there's no need to tell your partner that if you're hoping to impress them)!
If your partner has a vagina, have them lie on their back with their legs open. Position yourself at a 90 degree angle over their waist as you enter from the front (the penetrated person can also flip over for the anal version of this move).
Bonus tip
Take full advantage of this position and have your partner spank you or grab your bum, since it's in such easy reach!
