Scissoring

We’ve been in the business of lesbian sex movies for a long time, over 20 years, but this was a new one on us: scissoring. Supposedly a sex act where two lesbians interlink their legs to form two sets of “scissors” and rub their girl parts together, not only the term but the act itself is one we’ve never seen or done!

What gives? Is this some new position lesbians have suddenly “discovered”? Is it a term made up by some guys who haven’t really witnessed lesbian sex in the flesh or movies?

An article, “It’s Lesbian Sex 101 with Professor Tam,” first clued us in to this odd expression. And no, scissoring is not the same as tribadism, which is our experience is usually done face to face.

The idea of using a double-headed dildo in this scissors position crossed our minds, but women’s insides aren’t shaped like shotgun apartments. That’s why most double-headed dildos are shaped like the letter U.

Besides, what fun is sex if you can’t kiss each other, play with each other’s nipples and watch her face as she comes?

What do you think? You can comment here.

Yours in good love and sex,

    Yep, I have heard of scissors for about 20 years now. I had one girlfriend who always wanted to do it. I think it was the only way she could come. If one woman is lying down with her legs up (and open of course) and the other straddles her kind of sideways, then you can look at each other and depending on how your bodies fit together you might be able to reach eachother’s nipples. Kissing isn’t possible, but it is before and after. You have to have the right body types to fit together and the right pussies to fit together. My girlfriend and I both have “innies” so we can’t do it. “Do you feel anything? Nope. Me neither. Okay forget it.” The girlfriend who always wanted to do it definitely had an “outie”.

    i must say i’m very surprised that the ladies at fatale media have not heard of scissoring! i first heard about the position from a friend in college ten years ago. sadly, i had to wait a few years before an opportunity arrived to explore this amazing delight!!

    in my experience, you can still do all the usual stuff, after all you’re not in that position the whole time from start to finish. at first, my lover( at the time) and i were trying out a new double-headed dildo we just purchased. very quickly it became clear it was not big enough for either of our preferences. so, in an attempt to get more penetration we inched closer and closer, eventually getting so close our lips were rubbing up against the other’s. we remained face to face the whole time. occasionally, i was able to reach over and lightly play with her breasts. very soon, i found myself over whelmed with pleasure and not caring about much else. by the look on my lover’s face, i could tell she was equally aroused. before long i could feel both my body temperature rising, as well as her’s. i knew a double-synchronized climax was soon to erupt! :O

    Oh, for goodness sake. This is nothing new. I’ve seen it, first hand and on video dating back decades. Haven’t seen it with a double-headed dildo because most are too long to be comfortable in such a position.

    Have to disagree with you, too, on the “most double-headed dildos are shaped like the letter U” statement. Don’t know where you are shopping (Fatale’s own search function gets only two hits, neither with a picture) but Google comes up with plenty of examples. Other than the FeelDoe, most double-headed dildos are straight.

    Research, research, research or you’ll never find the location, location, location… regardless of your search.

    actually, vixen creations has a double-headed dildo they’ve been marketing for years the “nexus”. its more of an “L” shape, and well worth the money! you can see a pic on their site, vixencreations.com.

    there is nothing like watching 2 hot girls rubbing and grinding their hot clits against one another then using a double headed vibrator to finish the job and have that explosive orgasm. the expression of the girls faces as they near and then orgasm is amazing. I just love watching it.

    This position is very awesome because you can feel the wetness of your partner. I have an ‘outie’ so I can feel a little better than my partners that have had an ‘innie’ but overall its an awesome feeling. I think I have a better orgasmn – not because of the rubbing – but because of the wetness and feeling my clit against or in the mix. I love a butch woman – but you have to be with a woman (butch or femme) who doesn’t mind opening her legs and letting all of you – go there.

    Definately a way for someone who has never done it to try a new position to achieve an intense orgasm.

    I am thinking that the terms scissoring and tribadism are being used interchangeably. I read the article referenced, and think the writer has done so as well.
    Whatever you call it, however you describe it, CLIT to CLIT ROCKS!!!!!!
    I agree with Erica, if one of you can open those legs, you can invite, and guide, your partner to engage in intense direct simulation.
    For me, the orgasim is intense, and the bonding experience is without equal.
    I am also able to ejaculate from that position. Don’t know how it is, but I can.
    Give it a try!!!!! Happy orgasims to all.

    One of our favorite things. Agreed that the positioning has to be just right but that comes with practice. The fact that you can’t kiss is more than made up for by the extreme feeling of intimacy and the wetness. It is perfect mutual give and take.
    We have tried it wearing sheer tights too which was nice but getting naked is better.

    yeah. maybe some women do like the scissoring but I’d rather love the dildo stuff. Because i think it more fun as well as the pleasure it self by penetrating the dildo inside you. So i think that’s the best thing about dildo’s specially when its huge it really rocks!
