Product Information

The text states that there are two sorts of "third nature", one where a man behaves like a woman, and in the other, a woman behaves like a man. In one of the longest consecutive sets of verses describing a sexual act, the Kamasutra describes fellatio technique between a man dressed like a woman performing fellatio on another man. [89] The text also mentions same-sex behavior between two women, such as a girl losing her virginity with a girlfriend as they use their fingers, [90] as well as oral sex and the use of sex toys between women. [91] Svairini, a term Danielou translates as a lesbian, [92] is described in the text as a woman who lives a conjugal life with another woman or by herself fending for herself, not interested in a husband. [93] Additionally, the text has some fleeting remarks on bisexual relationships. [90] a b Vatsyayana; SC Upadhyaya (transl) (1965).

The Kama Sutra, written by Indian philosopher Vatsyayana, has garnered a lot of attention for acting as a guidebook to what seems like every sex position ever—but the ancient Sanskrit text is so much more than a reference book for intricate genital gymnastics.

Sure, doing two things at once isn’t the simplest thing in the world, but we have faith in your ability. Do your best not to get too distracted by how incredible it feels, even if your partner is a Throat Goat. Sometimes, one partner is so into the experience that the other partner stops while they keep going, says Venus Cuffs, a nightlife entrepreneur and retired pro-dominatrix.

The Kama Sutra has been quite distorted in how it has circulated in translation in the U.S. and other parts of the western world," says Durba Mitra, PhD, an assistant professor of women, gender, and sexuality at Harvard University, and author of Indian Sex Life: Sexuality and the Colonial Origins of Modern Social Thought .

Doggy style is a classic for a reason! Bestial and intense, there are a lot of modifications to give the giver and reciever something they’ll enjoy. Entry from behind and the openness of the hips give a good shot at G-spot penetration. The penetrating partner is standing or kneeling with their hands free to roam, grope, and grip to their heart’s content.

In the colonial era marked by sexual censorship, the Kamasutra became famous as a pirated and underground text for its explicit description of sex positions. The stereotypical image of the text is one where erotic pursuit with sexual intercourse include improbable contortionist forms. [71] In reality, according to Doniger, the real Kamasutra is much more and is a book about "the art of living", about understanding one's body and a partner's body, finding a partner and emotional connection, marriage, the power equation over time in intimate relationships, the nature of adultery and drugs (aphrodisiacs [72]) along with many simple to complex variations in sex positions to explore. It is also a psychological treatise that presents the effect of desire and pleasure on human behavior. [71] The Hindu tradition has the concept of the Purusharthas which outlines "four main goals of life". [26] [27] It holds that every human being has four proper goals that are necessary and sufficient for a fulfilling and happy life: [28] According to Doniger, the Kamasutra teaches adulterous sexual liaison as a means for a man to predispose the involved woman in assisting him, as a strategic means to work against his enemies and to facilitate his successes. It also explains the signs and reasons a woman wants to enter into an adulterous relationship and when she does not want to commit adultery. [84] The Kamasutra teaches strategies to engage in adulterous relationships, but concludes its chapter on sexual liaison stating that one should not commit adultery because adultery pleases only one of two sides in a marriage, hurts the other, it goes against both dharma and artha.

Getting the receiving partner on top is a great way to give them a boost of control (and to give the penetrating partner a hell of a view). In the Seated Scissors position, the partner recieving can straddle the penetrating partner with one leg between theirs and one outside their hip, allowing some extra angles and creative ranges of motion while also giving some additional grinding options for clitoral stimulation. Jyoti Puri, who has published a review and feminist critique of the text, states that the " Kamasutra is frequently appropriated as indisputable evidence of a non-Western and tolerant, indeed celebratory, view of sexuality" and for "the belief that the Kamasutra provides a transparent glimpse into the positive, even exalted, view of sexuality". [115] However, according to Puri, this is a colonial and anticolonial modernist interpretation of the text. These narratives neither resonate with nor provide the "politics of gender, race, nationality and class" in ancient India published by other historians and that may have been prevalent then. [116]

It's best known for its descriptions of different sex positions, though. And if you're looking for some sexual inspiration, it's a great place to start. What are the most popular sexual positions in the Kamasutra? According to the Indologist De, a view with which Doniger agrees, this is one of the many evidences that the kamasutra began in the religious literature of the Vedic era, ideas that were ultimately refined and distilled into a sutra-genre text by Vatsyayana. [45] According to Doniger, this paradigm of celebrating pleasures, enjoyment and sexuality as a dharmic act began in the "earthy, vibrant text known as the Rigveda" of the Hindus. [48] The Kamasutra and celebration of sex, eroticism and pleasure is an integral part of the religious milieu in Hinduism and quite prevalent in its temples. [49] [50] Epics Vatsyayana's Kama Sutra states it has 1,250 verses distributed over 36 chapters in 64 sections organised into 7 books. [55] This statement is included in the opening chapter of the text, a common practice in ancient Hindu texts likely included to prevent major and unauthorized expansions of a popular text. [56] The text that has survived into the modern era has 67 sections, and this list is enumerated in Book 7 and in Yashodhara's Sanskrit commentary ( bhasya) on the text. [56] Doniger and Sudhir Kakar published another translation in 2002, as a part of the Oxford World's Classics series. [108] Along with the translation, Doniger has published numerous articles and book chapters relating to the Kamasutra. [109] [110] [111] The Doniger translation and Kamasutra-related literature has both been praised and criticized. According to David Shulman, the Doniger translation "will change peoples' understanding of this book and of ancient India. Previous translations are hopelessly outdated, inadequate and misguided". [76] Narasingha Sil calls the Doniger's work as "another signature work of translation and exegesis of the much misunderstood and abused Hindu erotology". Her translation has the folksy, "twinkle prose", engaging style, and an original translation of the Sanskrit text. However, adds Sil, Doniger's work mixes her postmodern translation and interpretation of the text with her own "political and polemical" views. She makes sweeping generalizations and flippant insertions that are supported by neither the original text nor the weight of evidence in other related ancient and later Indian literature such as from the Bengal Renaissance movement – one of the scholarly specialty of Narasingha Sil. Doniger's presentation style titillates, yet some details misinform and parts of her interpretations are dubious, states Sil. [112] Reception For that sweeping-off-the-countertop (or desk) hot sex moment that you’ve totally fantasized about, the Countertop sex position can utilize just about any flat surface that is the right height for the penetrating partner. Take turns controlling the depth of penetration (the receiving partner can adjust their legs at their partners shoulders as well) and you’ll both be seeing stars.
