Jackhammer Sex Can Be Really Fucking Good, Actually

Getting pounded can feel oh so good

One of my favorite feelings is getting pounded really fucking hard during sex. I don’t think that should be a controversial opinion, but lately I’ve been getting the feeling that it is.

The missionary position used to be everyone’s favorite shorthand for bad sex. If a guy was just lying on top of you and slowly banging you, that was supposed to be the dullest sex you could have.

People don’t rag on missionary quite as hard these days. Probably because we all finally fessed up and admitted that missionary is really quite good actually.

As far as standard sex positions go, it’s got a lot going for it. It can give you a great angle for penetration, it feels close and intimate, and it’s the only way to get clitoral stimulation from penetration alone.

But now we seem to have come to a new consensus. We can all agree that missionary rules. It’s jackhammer sex that’s terrible.

Jackhammering is exactly what it sounds like. It’s when a guy treats his cock like a piston and fucks you as fast and as hard as he can.

It looks like amazing cardio (though I’m on the receiving end of it so I don’t get to burn a lot of calories), but it’s not supposed to do much to get you off.

It’s a bro move used by a guy who probably watches too much porn, might have given himself death grip because of it, and is more excited about telling his friends that he got to fuck you than he is about actually getting you off.

But I just can’t see it that way. I love getting jackhammered. That means I’m either a total freak or this is the whole “missionary sex is boring” thing all over again.

Slapping Skin

I discovered jackhammer sex when I started sleeping with a guy named Todd.

Todd would come very quickly, but he still fucked like a pornstar.

He’d bend me over or fold our bodies into complicated, controrted sex positions that probably looked better than they felt. Once he had me where he wanted me, he’d pound into me as hard and fast as he could.

He was also multiorgasmic and as far as I could tell he had no refractory period. He would jackhammer me until he came, pull off the condom, replace it with a new one, and go right back to pounding me some more.

Todd was exactly the guy I needed at that time in my life. I had just gotten out of a relationship with a guy who wasn’t very physical with me. It was someone who seemed to be very into me but didn’t show a whole lot of desire for me.

With Todd, it was completely different. I finally got to feel some passion. The pounding was part of that. When he’d grab my hips and slam into me as hard as he could, I felt wanted in a way that I hadn’t felt in months.

It was physically satisfying, too. The way his hips rammed against my ass felt incredible.

It was a deep, intense, pleasurable feeling - like getting spanked and fucked at the same time.

Which, incidentally, is also a lot of fun.

Things didn’t last long with Todd. And sadly, breaking up with him meant breaking up with the pounding, too.

I eventually settled down with a guy who couldn’t jackhammer me. That wasn’t his fault - it was just the way our bodies were made.

First, there was the fact that his cock curves, which made doggystyle very challenging. He could pound me, but I couldn’t take it for very long and it felt uncomfortable while he was doing it.

I also ran into hormonal and libido issues that kept from getting fully aroused. Deep penetration meant his cock was jamming against my cervix but not in a good way.

I made peace with my jackhammer-free life. At least I still had Todd’s athletic banging in my spank bank whenever I needed it.

Thankfully, it was only a temporary problem. Through some trial and error, I eventually found a few ways for my husband to fuck me harder and faster.

Doggystyle can still be tricky, but we found ways to accommodate his curve. Now I can get fucked so hard I have to press my face into our memory foam mattress to muffle the noises I can’t contain.

And of course there’s missionary. Yep, missionary and jackhammering - the two stereotypically bad sex moves combined. If I throw my legs over his shoulders, I can get fucked with so much depth and speed that I can only take it for a couple of minutes before it gets way too intense. 

But what an incredible couple of minutes those are.

Why Jackhammer Sex Gets a Bad Rap

I love being jackhammered, but it’s not something I want every time I fuck. It’s definitely not the only way I want to be fucked. But it’s nice to have it in heavy rotation.

I love the intensity of it, the slapping of flesh against flesh, and having my hips squeezed while getting fucked.

There are risks to getting pounded like that.

Like I said, you can get a cervical jabbing that your body’s just not ready for.

All that speed also increases the odds of him slipping out. That can result in a dick stab or even some accidental anal. Either way, it’s no picnic.

But I don’t think it’s those risks that give jackhammering its bad reputation. I suspect the reason people look down on it isn’t because most women don’t enjoy it - it’s because we want all the other stuff, too.

The same thing happened to missionary. People didn’t consider it boring because missionary sex sucks. They considered it boring because it gets kind of dull if it’s the only position you ever get fucked in.

Jackhammering’s the same. It’s not the actual pounding itself that’s bad. What’s bad is fucking a guy who won’t do anything other than jackhammer you.

The guys who speed through foreplay, the ones who don’t make sure you’re aroused enough before they start slamming into you, the ones who fuck fast, come, and then go to sleep - they’re the reason jackhammering has a bad reputation.

How to Pound Her Good

If you’re a guy, jackhammering should be one of the many ways you get down with your lady. But it’s easy to get it wrong. So, here are the things you need to do to make sure she’s enjoying the pounding as much as you are.

First, pay attention. Going fast and hard isn’t an excuse for being careless. You might slip out, and that’s fine, but make sure you don’t thrust again when you do. Pause for a moment, realign your cock with her pussy, slide it back in, and then start pounding again.

You also have to make sure she’s fully aroused before you start slamming into her. You need lots of foreplay to make sure the cervix won’t be an issue. You can save her a lot of discomfort by making her as horny as you possibly can before pounding her.

Eat her out, too. Jackhammering can be your finishing move, or something you throw into the mix, but you shouldn’t consider it the main event. Give her lots of variety and plenty of focus on her clit.

And use your hands. It’s the intensity of jackhammer sex that feels really good, not just the thrusting. So add to that experience by grabbing her hips, spanking her, and pulling her against you.

Hammer It Home

Jackhammering rules. It feels really fucking good. It’s passionate as hell. Done right, it’s some of the best banging you can get.

It’s just not all that great on its own.

Jackhammering guys aren’t bad in bed as long as they also go down on us, rub our clits, and slow-fuck us into ecstasy first. After I get that kind of treatment, I’m more than happy to get fucked so hard I forgot my name for a fraction of a second.

Guys who do it right deserve a medal and a high five. Because sometimes your pussy needs a really good pounding. It just shouldn’t come at the expense of great sex.
