From the Archives: In Praise of the Missionary Position

Posted by Nicole Ankowski



While vanilla sex has been bulwarked by pruned-faced housefraus—or slaves to the patriarchy, as the Freidans call it—contributing writer Rebecca Archer's personal narrative, “In Praise of the Missionary Position,” offers a stunning vis-à-vis in defense of “natural sex.” First published on the site in 2002, Archer's kink-free account offers a fresh twist on an old parlor room favorite. She made no bones about bottoming: “I am a lazy fuck,” she wrote. But with her salty anecdotes involving a Hitachi vibrator, “In Praise of the Missionary Position” becomes a movement for the submissive everywoman...just not Phyllis Schlafly.  — Joey Hood
