Thermostat. Wi-Fi. The TV package. These are things you can happily let your man get, er, fully on top of. You? Not so much. ‘A lot of men like missionary, because they feel in control,’ says sexpert Dr Juliana Morris (drjuliana morris.com). ‘While others think it makes them look good.’ But who has the heart to tell them otherwise, right?
