Common camera framing

Side profileLow angleWide / full body

Description: The receiving partner lies back and draws both heels in toward the buttocks with the knees falling wide, and the penetrating partner squats rather than kneels into the space. The folded, splayed leg shape is what the old name is describing.

Variations: Heels tucked right under, or held a hand's width clear so the hips can still move. The penetrating partner may kneel instead of squat, which lowers the angle and softens the depth.

On camera: The wide knees leave the contact point fully open, so it shoots better than most folded positions. Low profile framing is standard.

AI design considerations: Deep knee flexion with heels close to the buttocks and strong external hip rotation. The squatting upper figure is the harder half: the heels stay flat and the knees track outside the elbows.
