Shallowing Feels So Deep

Sexperts and adventurous lovers alike are buzzing about a counterintuitive new trend in the bedroom. It’s called shallowing, and if you haven’t heard of it yet, get ready to add a surprising move to your sexual repertoire. Don’t let the name fool you – shallowing feels deep. This playful technique is all about less is more when it comes to penetration, focusing on sensation at the entrance rather than diving in full throttle. Yes, we’re talking “just the tip” – but done intentionally and artfully as a way to intensify pleasure for both partners.

What Is Shallowing, Exactly?

Imagine pressing pause on deep thrusting for a moment and savoring the first inch or two – that’s shallowing in a nutshell. Shallowing (or outercourse) is a penetration technique where you enter the vagina with shallow penetration, stimulating just the entrance of the vagina and the first few centimeters inside. Instead of going deep right away, the penetrating partner controls their depth. They keep it “just the tip” or only a couple of inches. There’s no vigorous pumping or full penetration. It’s a teasing in-and-out that barely enters the vagina. This focuses stimulation on an area packed with nerve endings.

The idea might sound simple, but it turns out this shallow insertion technique can lead to mind-blowing sensations and intense orgasms. In fact, some have dubbed it the “shallowing feels so deep” sex position because this shallow approach can feel surprisingly deep in terms of pleasure – almost like you’re getting the benefits of deeper penetration without the strain.

And don’t worry, shallowing isn’t a one-trick pony or a single position. It can be done with various sex positions (we’ll get to the best ones later) and with any combination of body parts or toys – whether it’s a penis, dildo, strap-on, fingers, or one of your favorite sex toys. The common factor is keeping penetration shallow and sensation focused on the entrance. Think of it as the fine art of “tip teasing” turned into a whole new technique in your sexual repertoire.

Why the Vaginal Opening Is the Sweet Spot

Why focus on the entrance? Because nature built the vagina a bit like an amusement park – all the excitement is at the gate! Roughly 90% of the vagina’s nerve endings are concentrated in the first few centimeters (the lower third near the vaginal opening). The deeper sections of the vaginal canal have far fewer nerves. This means that shallow contact – right where penetration begins – can stimulate the majority of those pleasure receptors. No wonder a move that zeroes in on the entrance can yield more pleasure for the receiving partner. By contrast, deeper penetration often isn’t as intensely felt, since it tends to skip over these nerve-rich areas deeper inside.

For many women, that entrance area and the external vulva (think inner and outer labia, the clitoral vestibule, etc.) are extremely sensitive. By staying shallow, you’re essentially lavishing attention on these hot spots instead of skipping past them with deeper thrusts. Light, shallow movements or simply holding the tip just inside create a delightful friction at the opening – often stimulating internal clitoral structures that surround the vaginal entrance. Remember, the clitoris isn’t just the little external nub; it has internal bulbs and legs hugging that entrance. Shallow penetration indirectly engages that internal clitoral stimulation, which is a recipe for toe-curling bliss for the receiving partner.)

One large survey of women found that about 84% used “shallowing” techniques to increase their pleasure during sex, making it one of the top four techniques that work for most women. Clearly, a lot of people with vaginas have discovered that staying near the surface can be wildly pleasurable.

Sensations: Why Shallow Can Feel So Deep

When done right, shallowing can create the illusion of depth, making it feel intense. Slowing down and focusing on the entrance builds up sexual pleasure gradually, often leading to a powerful payoff. Here’s how it plays out for each partner:

For the Receiving Partner

For the receiving partner (the one being penetrated), shallowing can be a game-changer. Instead of the vigorous pounding that some deep penetration sex positions might offer, shallow delivers a gentle yet incredibly stimulating touch right where it counts. Many who try it report sensations of fullness and tingling at the opening, even without anything going deep. Because the shallow strokes continuously stimulate the nerve-rich entrance (and often the lower G-spot area on the front wall, which is only a couple of inches in), it can feel as if every movement is directly targeting your pleasure zones.

The external parts of the vulva get love too. With only shallow insertion, there’s more opportunity for friction against the labia and clitoral area. Each small motion can send a cascade of pleasure through the pelvis. Instead of just a vague fullness from deeper penetration, each shallow stroke directly targets those sensitive nerves, creating a sharper wave of pleasure. Some women even say these shallow sensations bring a different kind of orgasm – a deep, radiating climax that starts at the opening and spreads outward.

If you’re someone who doesn’t always enjoy jackhammer-deep thrusts, shallowing may feel deeply satisfying in a new way. It’s intensely focused on female pleasure at the point of entry, so much so that shallowing feels deep emotionally and physically.

For the Penetrating Partner

Don’t worry – you’re not sacrificing anything by not going deep. If you’re the one doing the penetrating (whether with a penis, strap-on, or toy), shallowing offers its own thrills. First off, there’s the obvious: the head of the penis gets tons of stimulation as it slides just a little way in and out. The glans is super sensitive – that’s why even just the tip can feel amazing. Each shallow thrust creates a tight, sensual sensation around that head, which can actually be more intense than full strokes for many penis-owners.

There’s also a psychological turn-on. Imagine watching your partner gasp and squirm with pleasure from such a subtle motion – it’s a huge ego and libido boost! You might find that shallowing brings a sense of control and connection: you’re carefully tuning in to your partner’s responses, maintaining eye contact, and savoring every inch (or centimeter). This can heighten your own arousal because you’re so mentally engaged, not just physically going through the motions.

Plus, shallowing can help some guys last longer. Since you’re avoiding full strokes and deep impact, you might find it easier to control excitement and delay orgasm. You can always mix in a little grinding or shallow circles to keep things interesting without tipping over the edge too fast. For those who struggle with finishing too quickly during deep thrusts, trying a slower, shallower approach can be a fun way to extend the session while still enjoying intense sensations.

Benefits of Shallowing (When Deeper Isn’t Always Better)

Aside from feeling great, shallowing comes with practical perks – especially if deeper penetration isn’t your cup of tea. Let’s face it, not everyone loves the feeling of something deep inside every time. Here are some situations where shallow sex is a good position (or technique) to try:

• Avoiding Discomfort or Pain: If you experience painful sex with deeper penetration or vigorous thrusting (due to conditions like endometriosis, vaginismus, a tilted cervix, or just general sensitivity), shallowing can be a game-changer. By keeping penetration minimal, you avoid banging the cervix or stretching the vaginal canal too far. No more wincing when things go too deep – shallowing stays in the comfort zone. It lets you enjoy sex without that worry.
• Perfect for Those Who Need Gentle Touch: People often need gentler, shallower options during pregnancy (especially in later trimesters) or right after childbirth. Less depth and more focus on the entrance means less pressure on a sensitive belly or healing tissues. (Positions like spooning or Kneeling Fox, which naturally limit depth, are great here – more on those soon.)
• Great for Smaller (or Larger) Penises: Shallowing is often touted as perfect for men with smaller penises (meaning penis size matters a lot less here). If penetration depth has been a concern, this technique basically says “no worries!” – you’re only using the first few inches anyway. On the flip side, if one partner is very well-endowed, shallowing ensures you don’t accidentally overdo it with deeper penetration (some even use a penis sleeve as a buffer to help with this). It’s a way to connect intimately without any size anxieties on either side.
• Prolonged Pleasure & Anticipation: By holding back from deeper penetration, you build anticipation like crazy. It’s almost like extended foreplay – every shallow dip teases going deeper but intentionally holds off. This slow burn can make the eventual deeper union (if you choose to go for it later) incredibly intense. Even if you never go deep at all, you might find the journey was so exciting that you don’t miss it!
• More Intimacy & Connection: Because shallowing isn’t about wild pounding, it naturally invites more tenderness. You’re often face to face or in a close, cuddly position when doing it. There’s room for eye contact, kissing, whispering – all those loving extras that sometimes get lost in acrobatic, porn-style sex. For couples seeking to deepen emotional intimacy shallowing hits the sweet spot. You get to be present with each other, not just chasing a climax. Many say it brings them closer and feels more “loving” – yet still super hot.

In short, shallowing gives you all the goods of penetrative sex while minimizing the downsides some experience with going too deep. It’s a reminder that deeper penetration isn’t always the holy grail of good sex – sometimes staying near the surface can unlock new levels of pleasure.

Flying Solo: Shallowing on Your Own

You don’t need a partner to explore shallowing. In fact, solo play is a fantastic way to start exploring this technique on your own and discover what shallow penetration feels like. Masturbation usually focuses on external stimulation, but adding a hint of penetration – just a little – can spice up your routine.

Exploring Shallowing with a Vagina

If you have a vagina, try using your own fingers to practice shallowing. Gently insert one finger up to the first knuckle(literally just the fingertip joint) and swirl it around the entrance. That first inch inside can be incredibly sensitive. Experiment with shallow thrusts using one or two fingers, but don’t go deeper than the first knuckle if you want to stay in the shallows. Focus on how it feels as you lightly press and circle just inside. You might find that even this slight insertion play creates intense waves of pleasure. You can also use a small sex toy like a bullet vibrator or dildo, but again, only insert it a little bit – think teasing, not plunging.

Exploring Shallowing with a Penis

If you have a penis, solo shallowing might involve using a masturbation sleeve or masturbator that stimulates just the head of your penis. You could also use your hand in a way that mimics shallow thrusts: form a loop with your thumb and forefinger and move it over just the penis head and upper shaft, rather than stroking the full length. This targets the sensitive glans similar to how shallow penetration during partner sex would. Notice how focusing on that top portion can feel different – often more intense – than a full stroke.

Regardless of anatomy, solo shallowing is about exploring sensitivity at the entrance. It can open up a new frontier for self-pleasure. Bonus: once you know what feels good on your own, you’ll be better at guiding a partner later when you invite them to try shallowing together.

Partner Play: How to Introduce Shallowing to Your Lover

Curious to try shallowing with a partner? A little communication and a sense of adventure go a long way. You might start by simply telling your partner about this idea – maybe you read an article (ahem) or heard that shallow insertion can feel amazing. Bring it up playfully: “Want to try something different tonight? I learned that sometimes less is more…” That might pique their interest.

Here are some tips to get you both on the same page:

• Frame It as Fun Foreplay: It can help to introduce shallowing as an extension of foreplay rather than a sudden change in your normal routine. Maybe you start with your usual kissing and oral sex, and when it’s time to penetrate, you suggest, “Let’s go really slow – I just want you to put in the tip for a while.” This makes it a seductive game rather than a strict rule. Emphasize that you want to savor the feeling of them just inside you.
• Use Plenty of Lube: Since shallowing involves lots of friction at the opening, make sure things are well-lubricated. Good lube keeps those shallow strokes smooth and enjoyable for both. Slower, shallower motions can actually feel more intense with lubrication because every subtle movement is amplified.
• Communicate & Tune In: Because this technique is subtle, it’s all about the feedback loop between you. The person doing the penetrating should go slow and pay close attention to the receiver’s breathing, moans, and body language. The receiver can guide with phrases like “right there, just like that,” or by moving their hips to show what feels good. Shallowing almost forces you to communicate – and that’s a great thing! It can bring you closer and ensures both partners get what they want.
• Combine It With Other Stimulation: One perk of keeping things shallow and gentle is that you’re free to stimulate each other in other ways at the same time. The person penetrating often has their hands free to roam (not having to prop themselves up for wild thrusts). So use those hands! Caress your partner’s body, play with nipples, rub their clit – whatever they enjoy. The receiving partner can also take matters into their own hands (literally) by rubbing their own clit or using a small vibrator on themselves while you stay joined just at the tip. This combo of shallow penetration + external stimulation can lead to explosive results.
• Focus on Intimacy: Many shallow-friendly positions are naturally intimate. Take advantage of that closeness. Look into each other’s eyes, exchange some sexy whispers, steal deep kisses. Shallowing can feel intense, but it’s also an opportunity to slow down and really connect. Couples often report that this technique brought them emotionally closer because it requires trust and attentiveness. Essentially, you’re making love in the richest sense, not just going through the motions. Enjoy that!

And most importantly: have fun with it. If either of you isn’t feeling it or craves something different, you can always switch it up. Some couples use shallowing as a tantalizing prelude before moving into deeper thrusts; others enjoy it as the main event from start to finish. Do whatever feels right for both of you.

Tools and Toys to Enhance Shallow Fun

You don’t need any fancy gadgets to try shallowing, but a few fun tools can take the experience up a notch. Sex toys can add extra stimulation or help ensure things stay shallow. Here are some ideas:

• Vibrating Cock Rings: A cock ring worn at the base of the penis can keep a stronger erection, but add a vibrator to it and you’ve got bonus thrills for both. A vibrating cock ring will send buzzes through the base of the penis (great for the penis-owner) and also press against the external vulva with each shallow thrust. Each time you go just a little inside, the cock ring’s vibrator can rub against the clit or labia, adding external clitoral stimulation to the mix. It also has a side benefit of acting like a bumper – the bulk of the ring can prevent fully deep thrusting, making sure you don’t accidentally slip in too far. (Tip: Position the ring’s vibrator on top, toward your partner’s belly, so it contacts their clitoral area when you’re shallowly inserted.)
• Penis Sleeves & Extenders: This might sound counterintuitive – why add an extender if we’re not going deep, right? But penis sleeves aren’t just for adding length. Many sleeves add girth or texture, and they can really enhance shallow play. A textured penis sleeve, for instance, can make the vaginal entrance feel even more stimulated by adding nubs or ridges that rub against the nerve-rich opening. The receiver gets a new sensation without needing deeper penetration. For the wearer, a sleeve can slightly reduce sensitivity, helping you last longer while you focus on shallow moves. Some sleeves even have a solid closed end or thick padding, effectively limiting how much of the penis goes in and guaranteeing things stay shallow.
• Strap-On Shorties: If you’re a couple that uses strap-ons – or you’re interested in trying – shallowing is great for harness play too. Choose a shorter dildo attachment (in the 4–5 inch range, or even smaller). The strap-on wearer can then insert just an inch or two and focus on shallow, rhythmic rocking. It shows that the key is technique, not going all the way—deeper penetration isn’t necessary to rock your world! This approach works for lesbian couples or any scenario where one partner doesn’t have a biological penis. (In fact, some harness kits even come with a hollow penis sleeve attachment for the wearer – helpful if a male partner wants to rest or if you’re sharing the experience with a different sensation.) Ultimately, shallowing with a toy proves you can absolutely get the same pleasure with a prosthetic penetrator as you do with the real thing.
• Pocket-Sized Vibrators & Suction Toys: While not directly part of penetration, incorporating a small clitoral vibrator or a suction stimulator can heighten the overall shallow-play experience. Because shallow motions leave plenty of space externally, one of you can hold a toy against the clit (or even use a hands-free toy that clips on). Imagine constant external vibes while the penis or toy teases just inside – talk about sensory overload in the best way! Just coordinate with each other; too much all at once can be intense, so find the rhythm and setting that work for you both.

Remember, when introducing any new toy, start exploring slowly. Pause the shallow thrusts when adding a new sensation, check in with each other, then continue. The goal is to enhance, not overwhelm (unless you like being overwhelmed by pleasure – then carry on!).

Best Sex Positions for Shallow Penetration

You might be wondering, “Okay, how do we actually do this shallowing thing in bed?” While you can technically adapt almost any position to keep it shallow, some sex positions lend themselves especially well to shallowing (for example, if the receiving partner keeps their legs straight and together in a face-up pose, it naturally limits how deep they can go). These are the Shallow All-Stars – poses that naturally limit depth or make it easier to stay shallow.

Spooning (aka “Sexy Spoons” or the TV Dinner)

Spooning is a classic for lazy, intimate sex – and it’s naturally shallow-friendly. In this cozy position, both partners lie on their sides facing the same direction, with one partner curled behind the other (like two spoons). The big spoon slides their penis (or toy) into the vagina from behind, entering just a little. Because you’re both on your sides, it’s harder to get deeper penetration without serious flexibility; only a few inches tend to go in comfortably. The receiver can keep their legs together (or slightly bent), which further limits depth.

Spooning is great when you want shallow penetration and romance. It’s super comfortable – if you’re tired, this requires little effort. It also leaves the big spoon’s hands free to reach around and pleasure the receiver. Think clitoral rubs or playful nipple teasing. Meanwhile, shallow thrusts work their magic internally. The nickname “TV Dinner” fits because this position feels very relaxed. It’s like curling up on the couch together. You could even watch Netflix in this pose, though you’ll likely be distracted. Use slow, short thrusts with only a couple inches of movement. Enjoy how deep it can feel despite staying shallow. Whisper something naughty or sweet in your partner’s ear, nuzzle their neck, and let the anticipation build.

The Kneeling Fox (Lazy Doggy Style)

The Kneeling Fox is essentially a modified doggy-style position that’s great for shallow entry. Think of it as doggy style without the jackhammer. In this position, the receiving partner starts on all fours but then lowers their upper body down (leaning onto forearms or a pillow) and keeps their knees and thighs closer together than in regular doggy. They might look a bit like a curled-up fox, hence the name. The partner behind kneels and enters slowly from the rear. Start by inserting only the tip, then shallowly thrust in and out a few inches at most. You’ll notice it feels incredibly snug at the entrance – your shallow moves create lots of friction right where the nerves are.

This position allows intimacy even though it’s “from behind.” The penetrating partner can lean forward and wrap their arms around. They can hug from behind and plant kisses on the receiver’s back or shoulders. The Kneeling Fox is perfect if you enjoy the primal vibe of doggy style. It still keeps the experience gentle and shallow. With the receiver’s legs closer together, the vaginal canal isn’t fully open. You physically can’t go too deep even if you try. The focus stays on shallow, grinding motions. Bonus: the receiver can reach back to touch their partner’s hips. They can also stimulate their own clit during this position for extra pleasure.

The Spider

This one’s a bit acrobatic but inherently shallow – and definitely a position to brag about trying! The Spider involves both partners entangling their limbs (hence the name). Start with both of you sitting upright on the bed facing each other, knees bent and feet on the bed. The receiving partner then leans back, supporting themselves with their arms, while the other partner scoots in and enters shallowly. Next, the other partner also leans back, being careful to stay connected. If done correctly, each of you ends up lying flat on your backs with legs interwoven and buttocks touching. At this point, neither of you can move too much – and penetration stays fairly shallow by default (unless one partner is extremely well-endowed).

Movement in The Spider is more about subtle gyrations and grinding than big thrusts. Picture two spiders mating: you’ll wiggle and rock your hips rather than go in-and-out dramatically. This position is tricky to get into and not the most effortless, which is why many give it a low “comfort” rating. However, it’s a fun challenge and can be quite arousing for the novelty and the skin-to-skin contact. Because of the body entanglement, it naturally prevents anyone from going toodeep – in fact, unless the person doing the penetrating has a very long penis, you’ll only be able to insert a few inches. Consider The Spider a shallow-play adventure for when you’re feeling experimental. Even if you don’t stay in it long, it can be a sexy change-up that reminds you both how creative (and silly) sex can be!

The Close Missionary (Legs Together)

Missionary position doesn’t have to be boring – and a simple tweak makes it shallow-focused. In “Close Missionary,” the receiving partner lies on their back as usual, but keeps their thighs together (and even crosses their ankles). The penetrating partner lies on top facing them, but instead of spreading the receiver’s legs, they keep those legs pressed together between their own. Then the penis (or toy) is inserted between the closed thighs into the vagina. Because the receiver’s legs are closed, the vaginal canal is slightly compressed – this creates a tighter entrance and naturally limits how far in anything can go.

This position is fantastic for shallowing because it emphasizes friction at the entrance and along the vulva. The clitoris often gets indirect pressure because the grinding happens with the thighs together. The penetrating partner should use slow, shallow thrusts here – it might feel so snug that long thrusts aren’t even possible. Each movement will rub the sensitive vaginal opening and clitoral area, potentially leading to quick orgasms. Many couples find that this legs-together version of missionary produces very strong climaxes without ever going deep. It’s also comfortable and intimate – you can easily stay face to face, kiss, and whisper because you’re not jackrabbiting away.

For even more intimacy, the partner on top can slip their arms under the receiver’s shoulders and hold them close while making these shallow movements. It’s a slight adjustment from regular missionary, but it can make a big difference in sensation. Sometimes the simplest changes – like keeping those legs straight and together – turn out to be game-changers.

Cowgirl Hover (Shallow Woman-on-Top)

Woman-on-top positions, like cowgirl or reverse cowgirl, are great for controlling depth. This makes them perfect for shallowing. In standard cowgirl, the person on top decides how far to lower themselves.  They also control how high to lift up.  To turn this into a shallow-only experience, the receiver simply hovers so that only the tip stays in.

Here’s how: The partner on the bottom lies flat on their back. The receiving partner climbs on top, either facing them (cowgirl) or facing away (reverse cowgirl). Instead of sliding all the way down onto the penis, the person on top lowers themselves just enough to get the head of the penis inside – maybe an inch or two – then stops. From here, they can rock their hips back and forth or in small circles, keeping that shallow depth. They might do a slight up-and-down bounce, but never take in the full length. This is basically that tip-only tease turned into a full-on riding technique.

The Cowgirl Hover can be incredibly erotic for both parties. The receiver has full control, ensuring that penetration stays at the perfect shallow depth. The person on the bottom gets an amazing view of their partner riding them.

Lotus (Face to Face Intimacy)

The Lotus is a deeply intimate, face-to-face position that naturally keeps penetration shallow. In the Lotus, one partner sits upright (often cross-legged or with legs slightly apart) and the other partner sits in their lap facing them, wrapping their legs and arms around them. Think of it like a seated bear hug where you’re coupled together. Because of the close embrace and the angle, penetration usually is only a couple of inches and thrusting is minimal – movement is more about rocking together as you hold each other.

This position is all about harmony and intimacy. Many couples enjoy Lotus not just for the physical sensation but for the emotional vibe – you can kiss deeply, gaze into each other’s eyes, even sync your breathing. It’s almost meditative. For shallowing purposes, it’s excellent: you physically can’t jackhammer in Lotus. You’re limited to shallow grinding by the nature of the pose. And that’s a feature, not a bug! Those subtle movements with your bodies pressed together can create intensely sensual feelings. Plus, because you’re sitting up, the receiver can easily move to adjust what spot the penis or toy is rubbing (tilting hips to hit the G-spot, for example, which is only a few inches in – so G-spot stimulation is still on the table).

Lotus proves that you don’t need vigorous motion to have an orgasmic time. A lot of people say this position makes them feel emotionally close. It requires trust and maintaining a slow, steady pace. Physically, shallow penetration mixed with full-body contact feels powerful. Chests together and arms wrapped around can create orgasms that feel deeply satisfying in a new way.

Other Positions and Creative Twists

Honestly, different positions can be adapted for shallowing with a bit of creativity. The key principle is controlling how far things go in.

For instance, in a standing position, you can keep penetration shallow by avoiding bending too much. The receiver can also place their hand on the base of the penis to control depth. In any position, hands can guide how far the thrust goes. The receiver might hold the partner’s hips or butt to prevent deeper pushing.

A fun shallow-play move is the “Edge Tease.” The receiver lies on their back with their butt at the edge. The giver stands or kneels on the floor. Instead of thrusting normally, the giver inserts just the tip. They then stir or swivel it around the entrance for teasing stimulation.

It’s like you’re tracing circles just inside – an agonizingly sexy tease for many! This gives intense stimulation to the vaginal opening and drives both partners wild with anticipation.

Feel free to invent your own shallow variations. Maybe you try a missionary position with the receiver’s legs straight outinstead of spread, or a seated position where you only allow half insertion. The sky’s the limit. As long as you both enjoy the shallower sensation, you’re doing it right. (And hey, if you eventually crave depth, you can always go for it – but you might discover you enjoy this slow-burn style even more.)

Building Anticipation and Intimacy Through Shallowing

One of the most beautiful aspects of shallowing is how it forces you to slow down and truly be present with your partner. By not rushing to the finish line, you cultivate a kind of sexual mindfulness. Every small movement and every inch gained feels significant. This naturally builds anticipation. When you’re giving each other just a little bit at a time, you’ll both find yourselves craving more – which makes everything feel that much hotter. It’s like edging (teasing toward orgasm and then easing off), but with depth instead of time.

This anticipation isn’t just physical – it’s mental and emotional. You’re both keyed into each other’s reactions, maybe maintaining eye contact or exchanging breathy whispers, fully absorbed in the moment. By the time you decide to move into deeper penetration (if you even do), the intensity is off the charts. Some research even suggests women report significantly stronger orgasms when shallowing is used as foreplay before “conventional” sex. It’s like saving the grand finale until you absolutely can’t wait anymore.

Emotional Connection and Intimacy

Emotionally, shallowing can foster deep intimacy. You have to trust your partner to listen to your body’s cues, and vice versa. This mutual attentiveness can bring you two closer together. Because the pace is slower and more deliberate, there’s often more kissing, caressing, and connected lovemaking. Couples often describe shallowing as physically pleasurable and emotionally intimate. It makes them feel profoundly close and perfectly in sync. In today’s world, sex advice often highlights wild positions or marathon sessions. Shallowing reminds couples how powerful, slow, attentive sex can be.

Finally, remember that shallowing is one tool in your box – but a potent one. It doesn’t mean you’ll never enjoy deeper penetration again or that every session has to be shallow. The beauty of learning this technique is having more options. Maybe you start shallow (now that you know how incredible it can be), then transition to deeper strokes when you both can’t take the teasing anymore. Or maybe you have a quickie and end with some gentle shallowing as a sweet, intimate finish. There’s no single way to use it. The goal is simply to explore and have more avenues to pleasure.

So go ahead – try shallowing, maybe grab a new vibrating ring or penis sleeve from JackandJillAdult.com to spice things up, and see why everyone’s talking about it. It might bring a new spark to your sex life – proving that subtle changes can lead to big rewards. Sometimes, shallow penetration really does feel so deep – in all the best ways. Enjoy the journey!
