the science of sex

A friend of mine and I where wondering about this, and neither of us can figure it out lol....this is gonna sound so stupid. Does the penis go at an angle to reach the vagina or what?! does it go just straight in. We are soo very confused and dont remember biology class at all anymore. Sorry for this topic, we just want to clear this up.:rolleyes:
