We both suffer with arthritis, any ideas on a position for a decent sex life?

Question

We do try, but it ends up in ouch, aarghh or fall about laughing.
If I can get into a position, he can't and vice versa.
Please no smutty replies. We love each other and can please each other but penetration would be preferable for both of us.
Its a good job we have a sense of humour but it is hurting us both now, (no pun intended).

This is a very good question for handicaped or overweight persons and from experience I 've found that the side scissor position works best. He going under her left leg , when she lying on back,and crossing over her right leg with his right leg will position you both adequately and can stop for breath of air and also not weighing down on her. Kissing on the lips will have to wait a bit tho' [good luck]

There are some issues which you haven't any longer seen with reference to the crucifiction. * Jesus is perpetually appropriate and fully harmless. His journey of corruption, suffering and death could have been infinitely amplified whilst in comparison with what we finite people ought to probably journey. * For the 1st time in all of eternity, Jesus additionally experienced the utter rejection and separation from His Father (Matthew 27:40 six). To the appropriate Christ, the journey of the flow replaced into plenty greater then a trifling crucifixion (if that wasn't undesirable adequate). the internal maximum journey of Jesus on the flow replaced into seen by utilising God to be sufficiently, perpetually undesirable such that it happy the appropriate justice of God on our behalf. "shouldn't he nevertheless be alive on the flow suffering" Time is beside the point to God. Jesus experienced infinite suffering in the limited timeframe. From a finite attitude that should look like a paradox, yet from an eternal attitude, time has no relevance.

Know what you mean but, pain or not I have to have sex. By the end of the session my hands are numb and in so much pain as are my legs but still doesn't ruin the moment. I suggest if it's that bad for you both, make you a couple of light suits, I use long johns at times, rub myself down with heat rub (Ben-Gay or Deep heat) and use gloves for my hands. You wouldn't believe it but it works on my worse days........
