Everybody cycles through many different sex positions in their lifetime (or even in one night!), but it’s not a coincidence that you find yourself on top nine out of ten times when you’re having sex with your partner. Sure, there are other factors that contribute to your love of doggie style or missionary — penis size, vagina placement, mood. But we think there must be an, ahem, deeper meaning as well, so we’ve analyzed the personality types that go along with eight common sex positions.

When you go to the coffee shop, you say “the usual” and the barista knows exactly what to make. Sure, you like to play it safe in a lot of ways, and because of it you have excellent credit and a stable job and monogamous, super committed relationships. You don’t see the harm in keeping it simple in bed. You like to look in your partner’s eyes and tell them how much you love them while you do it. That will never go out of style.

You’ve got a tattoo that only three people in the world know about and one of them is the person you’re sleeping with. In your public life you like to portray a more buttoned-up image, but in your private life it’s a whole different story. You listen to death metal on the treadmill at the gym and you like your sex life — and your tacos — extra spicy. You have no problem getting on all fours and taking it like a woman. You’ll get him back later. Pass the hot sauce!

That Sarah McLachlan SPCA commercial had you weeping for hours. And when you were done crying, you went out and adopted a rescue pet. Everyone knows you’re a real softie, especially your partner who you text every few hours just to see how their day is going. You’re easy going and agreeable, sometimes to a fault, but whoever gets to spoon you regularly is a lucky person and better not take advantage of your sensitive heart–or the people who love you will most certainly kill them.

In high school, you used to sneak out of the house to fool around with boys, and you prided your self on never getting caught. Now you don’t care who sees you doing what. You’re a legend at your neighborhood karaoke bar for your rendition of “Cherry Bomb.” You fight for what you believe in — whether it be the 99 percent or your right to watch a little porn to get you in the mood.

You’re the teacher’s pet in hot yoga class because you can do things with your body that most people would only scoff at. You’re a seeker who’s obsessed with finding new ways of connecting — with other people, your partner, your vagina, the earth. You try to stick to eating mostly raw and organic foods and you’ve taken more than one workshop to help you get in touch with the universal feminine. When you have sex, you say things like, “Our souls are touching.” You’re not opposed to participating in an orgy.

For you, life is simply a series of competitions to see who will tire first. And it sure as hell will never be you. Sex is no exception.

You consider LuluLemon to be business casual, and no one’s had the guts to tell you otherwise. Once you find someone who appreciates your strength and stamina, there will be no stopping the two of you.

You performed for the kids in the neighborhood growing up and even as an adult, you never really stopped performing.
