I don't think it would work for me, but I think for certain people it might.

I have tried it and it really did nothing for me or my partner. Like others have said there are so many other positons that bring pleasure as well as closeness.

Yea, that's the impression I get. Sensually, wonderful

I have always loved scissoring! You have to have plenty of wetness. Get really close, press your pussies together and grind. Feel her wet, hot pussy gliding lusciously on your clit. Grab her thighs and really get into it. Orgasm is beautiful, especially when you feel her juice running down your own pussy and dripping from your thigh.

I think it all depends on a person. It's very hard for me to get off sometimes, no matter what we're doing. But we like to scissor mostly because of the friction and how sexy it is to be *so* close. Try it with an egg, works wonders!

I enjoy it with a double dildo on occasion, but my partner is not that flexible so I kinda have to be comitted to doing on the work. But I definitely get off to it.

Scissoring was pleasant and very intimate. I didn't have an orgasm but I felt very connected to my mate in a way hadn't before. The slow breathing, movement, and touching was very erotic.

We tried it, and it felt nice but was more of a foreplay thing. It didn't actually lead anywhere by itself.

I've tried to convince my girlfriend to try this way. She's very skeptical and isn't into it. These posts are so diverse, I'd love to try it at least a couple times to see if we can work it out...if not, there are lots of other ways to enjoy ourselves!

I've seen it done only in porn. It seems like it would work, but I'd like to try it out for myself.

Its not that big of a deal to be honest, in my opinion.

It works, but for me, it just takes a lot more stamina than it is worth.

I did not answer the poll, as a totally hetero woman, but I did ask my good friend who is a married (to her female partner) and very open "not" hetero woman, and she laughed at the notion. She thought your "hetero-man-made-myth" description was as accurate and eloquent as she had ever heard for something she has only "heard about" in porn videos. She said she and a prior lover "tried it once..just because it was in the movie" and despite a valiant attempt to make it work, it was an "awkward" and silly thing to do. Thought I would share HER insight.

I agree with Storm about just laying on top of her, or vice versa, and rubbing together that way. It feels good to me that way.

We've never tried scissoring, not seriously anyway, because we both think it's kind of silly. And the one time we did try to seriously, we ended up laughing.

Works a lot better with clothes on, to be honest. XD But yeah, in a way, something very similar to 'scissoring' works.

Edit: Actually it's more like leg-humping, what I did. I haven't tried 100% book-definition scissoring, but I'd imagine it would be good depending on the body shapes of the two gals.

With a male partner, it works. With a female partner I've only ever gotten it to work with toys.

It seems like other things would work better, but maybe it's worth a try.
