Facesitting, also known as
queening or
kinging, is a
sexual practice in which one partner sits on or over the other's face, typically to allow or force
oral–genital or
oral–anal contact. In addition to oral-genital and oral-anal contact, the position also leaves the bottom partner's hands free to stimulate other
erogenous zones (e.g., anus, nipples, etc.). The top partner may be facing either direction in this position. It is common for this position to form part of
BDSM, involving
dominance and submission, though this need not be the case. Within a BDSM or D/s context, facesitting can be an form of
erotic humiliation.
