Gay sex has a lot of aspects that straight sex just doesn't have, and that will influence what positions work best. Some positions that are just okay for straight people turn into mind-blowing sex positions for gay couples as well. There are many sex positions for straight couples out there that gay men simply can't enjoy due to the equipment differences out there. One of the biggest differences between straight sex and gay sex, aside from the genders of participants, are the sex positions that are used. No one can deny that gay sex is different than straight sex.
