The 50 Shades of Grey Kamasutra

If you’re a fan of 50 Shades of Grey, you’re bound to have fantasised about experimenting with some of the BDSM positions made famous by Christian Grey and Anastasia Steele.

Christian Grey gets turned on by nibbling, biting and tweaking Anastasia’s nips, bringing them both to the heights of ecstasy.

If you like having your breasts played with, ask your partner to take your nipple gently between his lips and give it a nibble.

Stimulating this ultra-sensitive erogenous zone will make you both super-horny.

This one’s all about you! Put on a sexy skirt, but leave the undies firmly in your knicker drawer, and get your partner to go down on you, exploring your clit with his lips and tongue until you reach the point of no return.

Explosive orgasms guaranteed.

In 50 Shades, Christian Grey manages to make even feet sexy. He leaves Anastasia burning with desire as he kisses and nibbles her toes, so book yourself in for a pedicure and recreate the scene at home.

Start with your partner licking and kissing your feet, moving up to your ankles, legs and inner thighs – with predictable, and earth-moving, results.

There’s something exquisitely erotic about the combination of sex and ice, so if you’ve never tried it, now’s the time!

Get your partner to hold an ice cube in his mouth while he kisses and licks your nipples, then return the favour by taking a swig of ice cold champagne before giving him a blowjob.

The hot and cold sensations will leave you both sweating with desire.

There’s nothing sexier than not being able to see what your partner is about to do.

If you and your partner have been together a while and trust each other implicitly, blindfolding him and then going down on him is a great way to revive the passion in your relationship.

And it’s only fair if he returns the favour, just like Christian does to Anastasia in the novel.

One for the more hardcore couple, bondage involves being tied up so you have no control over what your partner does to you and are entirely at his mercy.

It’s vital that you have complete trust in your partner before trying this out. You won’t be able to move your arms and legs, so take it slowly, and be prepared to stop if you feel panicky or unwell.

But once you’re relaxed and ready, submitting to your partner can intensify sexual feelings and leave you completely under his power.

Having your hair pulled can be intensely erotic, and combining it with doggy-style sex makes it even hotter.

It’s no surprise that Christian Grey tries this position out on Anastasia in 50 Shades.

Spice up the missionary position by handcuffing your partner, or letting him handcuff you.

If he’s the one who’s tied up, straddle him and control the rhythm, depth and direction of your movements.

If you’re the one in cuffs, lie back and let him have his wicked way …

This position is an excellent starting point if you’ve never tried S&M before.

Get your partner to pin your arms down by your sides while he makes love to you, to give you the sensation of being restrained.

If you’re feeling braver, try using a headband to tie your wrists together.

In one of the steamiest scenes in 50 Shades, Christian forces Anastasia to have sex with him on the couch, with her hands on her head so she can’t touch him.

Yep, staying passive during sex is SO difficult, but makes the pleasure SO much more intense.

Ever fantasised about a handsome stranger taking you over your (or his) desk? Christian Grey puts this into practice with Anastasia, stretched across the table-top with her head hanging off the edge.

Having sex in this position not only means you’re submitting to your man, but also makes the blood rush to your head for extra intensity.

Not sure about sneaking into the office after hours? The kitchen table works just as well!

Whether they’re in a lift, on the sofa or in his office, Christian Grey can’t resist an opportunity to get Anastasia hot under the collar (and, err, elsewhere…).

Take a leaf from their book by stealing a quiet moment, unzipping your trousers and letting your partner slip his hand inside.

This 50 Shades inspired foreplay is the perfect starting point for amateur thrill-seekers.

This position will take you out right out of your comfort zone, but if your partner fantasises about being submissive, it’ll leave him begging for more.

First up, he has to be naked. Then, attach him to a lead (available from sex shops) and take him ‘for a walk.’

Forget your usual dog-walking technique and up the sex appeal by wearing sexy lingerie and skyscraper heels. He can admire your anatomy from a whole new angle and feel totally under your control.

What happens next is in your hands …

Some of us are horrified at the idea of using nipple clamps, but pleasure and pain are closely linked, and using them can be extraordinarily erotic.

They strengthen pleasurable sensations, and your partner will get a kick out of seeing how you react, too.

It might be messy, but dripping hot wax onto each other’s naked body is the ultimate in erotic foreplay.

The skin is highly sensitive to changes in temperature, and if you go the extra step and drip wax onto him while he’s blindfolded, he’ll be begging for more (make sure it doesn't burn the skin, though!).

Why not use special wax that melts on the skin and turns into lube for an extra kick?

Fancy being the dominant partner? Here’s an explosive idea: tie your (naked) man to a chair so he can’t move his arms or legs.

Then start teasing him, by dancing, stroking, kissing… Once he’s turned on, straddle his lap and take charge of what happens next.

There are few things more exciting than seeing your man aroused and frustrated all at once because you’ve made him so horny.

Try handcuffing him to the bed, then climb on top of him and start masturbating.

It’s guaranteed to get him squirming with desire – and once you’ve unleashed him, all your desires will be fulfilled, too.
