Both are judged by "the eye of the beholder", beautiful is almost static and more closely related to looks and sexy is fluid/ motion. A beautiful lady might get a second glance but sexy will get the hormones pumping.

I feel there are many people that might think they have above average looks but have no intuition on how to be sexy. I'll personally rather be with someone that can flaunt it and be sexy that someone that believes their looks make up for everything .

Thanks for your reply, I'll rather say missionary is the only option left and excludes any gymnastics ankle behind the ear moves. Doggy is especially  a no no I find for myself there are a number of what I call foreplay / sex play positions  - like the position you describe  and as part of love making and the allover touching / being one is great but I  find it difficult to actually achieve orgasm in those positions. 

Maybe contributing is the fact that we never really have what I would call a night of passionate sex as she  likes it short and sweet and does not enjoy anything longer than an hour.

I appreciate all the ideas, please keep them coming.

Puss, you do raise interesting topics. This is a contentious issue in my marriage. My wife has a tilted uterus and even slightly deeper penetration in the missionary position becomes unbearable.  She reaches orgasm easily. However as soon as I'm getting to the point and wants harder, deeper penetration then all goes pear shape and the whole experience becomes  a downer. We have tried numerous positions without success, or rather it works as foreplay or play sex but as soon as we get to the climax then.. Interesting I've never felt like I'm hitting something or banging the tip but I can feel and see how she tenses up when I start to speed up. Not sure how to have the same sensation of deep penetration without really doing it, maybe a donut sponge to fill the gap or act as a buffer?
