While not moving, a human can be in one of the following main positions.

It is also possible to classify these main positions into further detail, as well as to consider intermediate forms.

For sitting and lying softness and cleanliness are relevant factors. Sometimes paper, cardboard or cloth is used when sitting or lying on the ground, a dirty bench, etc. Sitting or lying in the grass or on a sandy beach is comfortably soft.

For sleeping and sexual activities one often lies down.

Squatting may be difficult because of being too unstable, unless it is possible to lean against something.
