Mastering the Spooning Techniques Avoiding Awkwardness
Spoons fit together perfectly. This cuddling position maximizes intimacy and comfort, allowing you and your partner to snuggle into each other like spoons in the drawer. If you want to feel close to your partner, there's no more perfect way than spooning.
1 Establish your spoon size. In most spooning positions, you will need to designate a "little" and a "big" spoon:
The little spoon: This is typically the smaller partner. This position is often considered emasculating, and usually will fall to the feminine partner.
The big spoon: This will often be the dominant partner. This is typically the taller or more masculine partner.
A quick test to figure out which spoon is the big spoon: whomever hugs the other partner while cuddling should be the big spoon. These role aren't always black and white, quite often big spoons will enjoy occasionally being the little spoon.
In this position, The big spoon lays on his or her side, and the little spoon puts his or her back to the stomach of the big spoon while also laying on his or her side. While there are variations of what the bottom arm of the big spoon does in this position, it's well accepted within the spooning community that the big spoon's top arm should be wrapped around the waist of the little spoon.
See "Avoiding Awkwardness" below for information on what the big spoon can do with his or her bottom arm.
In this technique, the big spoon lays on his or her side, and the little spoon puts his or her back to the stomach of the big spoon while also laying on his or her side. The little spoon should then curl into a fetal position.
The big spoon should then use his or her bottom arm to stretch behind him or her, creating a cross, with the top arm laying across the little spoon.
In this position, the big spoon lays on his or her side, and the little spoon should then curl into a fetal position facing the stomach of the big spoon. The big spoon should then hug the little or Baby spoon with both arms.
For this move, the big spoon should lay on his or her back. The little spoon should then lay on top of the big spoon's stomach, face down. For more intimacy, try hugging each other.
To take the same idea behind the "Classic Spoon," try interlocking both spoons' legs so that bottom leg of the big spoon rests on the mattress, then the little spoon's bottom leg, then the big spoon's top leg, then the little spoon's top leg.
To do this maneuver properly, both the little and the big spoon should press their backs to each other's. This will allow for more personal space (and fresh air) while still providing the "warmth" of your partner.
Who says the male has to be the big spoon all the time? Have fun switching it up and changing who is in the position of the big and little spoon. Even if the little spoon is a foot taller than the big spoon, this will be a fun and cute cuddling experience. If you and your partner are really comfortable with one another, then traditional gender and spoon roles won't matter!
