Description: The penetrating partner kneels and holds the receiving partner's thighs apart at the knees, keeping the position open by hand rather than by the receiving partner's own effort. Transferring that work is the whole point: it lets the receiving partner stay relaxed at an angle that would otherwise take constant tension.

Variations: Hands at the knees, at the backs of the thighs, or at the ankles with the legs raised higher. Letting go turns it into an ordinary kneeling entry.

On camera: One of the most durable framings in production because the hands hold the body open toward the lens without anyone straining. Works low, in profile, and as a point-of-view shot.

AI design considerations: A kneeling figure with both hands on the partner's inner knees, arms extended and taking load. The hands must deform the contact, or they read as hovering.

Image to video (Thrust (deep))

long-range reciprocating motion along the body axis, full amplitude, torso following the hips, camera is locked on a tripod and does not move.

Motion only. The still you condition on must already carry the position, wardrobe and scene: restating them causes drift.

Expected figure count: 2. Global pose conditioning does not make a diffusion model count bodies. Count figures and limbs at full size before judging quality, because thumbnails hide the failure. The tag missionary is broader than this position: missionary covers every supine face-to-face union, and its wiki names holding the partner's legs only as something the position may involve. It discards the hold that defines this entry: the kneeling partner's hands at the receiving partner's knees, keeping the thighs apart so the receiving partner stays relaxed instead of holding the position open. hands_on_another's_knees restores the hand placement, but no tag records that the hold carries the load.

  • The seducercloseThe Perfumed Garden of Sensual Delight

    Attested source name. al-Nafzawi's 29th manner, El moheundi, in which the kneeling partner sits back on the heels, raises and separates the thighs, and carries the legs under the arms or over the shoulders, the hands at the waist or shoulders. The hands-at-the-knees hold this record treats as defining is not in Burton's text.
