== [[Anime and Manga]] ==
* In episode 9.5 of ''[[Dear SDearS]]'', Miu heads over to Takeya's house to check in on Ren, only to find her "Watching porn to study Takeya's preferences in the earthling ways of sex."
{{quote| '''Ren:''' ''Holy cow, that looks pretty complicated...''<br />
'''Miu:''' '''''IS SHE SPINNING!?''''' }}
Line 23:
== [[Comic Books]] ==
* The "Elvish Tickler," in ''[[The Incredible Hercules]]''.
* During the Dave Micheline/Todd McFarlane run on ''[[Spider -Man]]'', Peter once carried MJ to bed, promising "The Venus Butterfly", a reference to the ''[[LA Law]]'' episode mentioned below.
* Two of [[Dori Seda]]'s works feature a foursome which look... difficult.
 
Line 30:
* At the start of the second ''[[Austin Powers]]'' movie, Austin is gung-ho to try out every single position in the Kama Sutra with Vanessa:
{{quote| ''Don't you wanna try the "Wheel Barrow", or the "Praying Donkey", or 'The Chinese Shag Swing"?''}}
* In ''[[Easy A (Film)|Easy A]]'', when Brandon asks Olive to pretend that the two of them had sex, he goes through a list of these:
{{quote| Brandon: It doesn't have a bonk; it can be anything. It can be an imaginary butterbean, lemonsqueeze, cowbell--<br />
Olive: I don't know what any of that means.<br />
Line 41:
 
== [[Literature]] ==
* The handmaiden Ptraci, from Terry Pratchett's ''[[Discworld (Literature)/Pyramids|Pyramids]]'':
{{quote| Ptraci defused the situation by grabbing Alfonz's arm as he was serving the pheasant.<br />
"The Congress of the Friendly Dog and the Two Small Biscuits!" she exclaimed, examining the intricate tattoo. "You hardly ever see that these days. Isn't it well done? You can even make out the yoghurt." }}
* ''[[Lamb: theThe Gospel According To Biff (Literature)|Lamb the Gospel According To Biff]]'' includes a sequence in India where, while Joshua is learning things like yoga from Gaspar the Magi, Biff learns a number of bizarre sexual positions from a prostitute. It's obviously a take on the Kama Sutra, but seeing as the real Kama Sutra doesn't have positions like "The Rhinoceros Balancing a Jelly Donut on its Horn"...
* In ''[[The Hollows|Dead Witch Walking]]'', Ivy gives Rachel a copy of a vampire dating guide so she won't accidentally set off Ivy's bloodlust. Rachel makes the mistake of reading it on the bus, and being asked about various acts by other bus riders.
** "Oh--my--God. Ivy's book was illustrated. ... Was there a third person in there? And what the hell was that bolted to the wall? ... There were two people. Three if you count the one with the...whatever it was."
* In ''[[Bridge of Birds]]'', Number Ten Ox describes a sexual encounter in very abstract terms by explaining that the best way for two young people to "become acquainted" is through activities such as Fluttering Butterflies, Hounds by the Ninth Day of Autumn, and Six Doves Beneath the Eaves on a Rainy Day.
* ''[[Fear and Loathing Inin Las Vegas]]'' features a scene in a diner where the [[Genius Bruiser|325-pound Samoan lawyer]] "Dr. Gonzo" writes something on a napkin and surreptitiously hands it to a waitress at a [[Greasy Spoon|diner]]. Upon seeing that it says "Backdoor Beauty?", the waitress (apparently a former prostitute) throws a fit.
* ''Fortune's Stroke'', in the ''[[Belisarius Series|Belisarius]]'' series has an un-named book whose contents are never described. Various people, upon glancing at the contents, make remarks along the lines of "maybe ''you're'' flexible enough to do that, but me? Not a chance."
* ''[[The Shadowof the Lion]]'' has a position called the "twin Camellias", which involves a footstool and a number of cushions, and "could very well give a man a permanent back injury".
 
== [[Live Action TV]] ==
* "Mexican Halloween" on an episode of ''[[Community (TV)|Community]]'' isn't just a nickname for the Day of the Dead; Chang, Troy, and Jeff all seem to know what it is, while Abed and Annie don't.
* The above quote from the [[Too Good to Last]] tv show ''[[Action]]''.
** Later in the episode, she admits to another character that she made them up.
Line 60:
* An episode of ''[[How I Met Your Mother]]'' had this, but since Robin was the center of the discussion, all the names were based around Canada. Read about it at www.canadiansexacts.org (a service of the Ministry of Health & Wellness).
* Of the "not named" variety ''[[Bones]]'': discussing a sex scene in her latest novel, people talk about "page 186." Apparently Hodgins invented it (but even he apparently has no name for it; instead, he simply refers to it as "that thing I do"), did it to Angela, and Angela "suggested" to Brennan that the latter put it in her book.
* Similarly, in the ''[[Red Dwarf (TV)|Red Dwarf]]'' episode "Marooned," Lister asks if he can burn ''[[Lolita (Literature)|Lolita]]'', and Rimmer tells him to "save page 61". Lister looks at it and says, "That's disgusting." then he rips it out, puts it in his coat pocket, and chucks the rest of the book in the fire. Kind of a subversion, as ''[[Lolita (Literature)|Lolita]]'' is a real book, so anyone can read it and find out what's so disgusting.
** Considering what [[Lolicon|Lolita is about]] there's of course the odd chance that [[You Do NOT Want to Know]]. Also [[Fridge Horror|what is says about Lister and Rimmer]].
* ''[[Torchwood (TV)|Torchwood]]'''s Jack and Ianto [[Tropers Do It Without Notability|do it with a]] [[Noodle Implements|stopwatch]]. Naturally, in and out of [[Slash Fic]], the fans have puzzled over how that one works.
* Elliot of ''[[Scrubs]]'' renown at one point gained a reputation for [[Buffy-Speak|trampitude]]. When asked her 10 favorite positions, after the two she knew, she just started naming insects. Apparently "the stinkbug" is quite popular.
* The infamous "Venus Butterfly" reference from ''[[LA Law]]''.
** The Venus Butterfly [[Shout -Out|also showed up]] in [[My Own Worst Enemy]]
* ''[[The Daily Show]]'' likes to make references to these (the "Dirty Sanchez" being a particular favorite).
* Jerri Blank on ''[[Strangers Withwith Candy]]'', in keeping with her [[Phrase Catcher|"stupid junkie whore"]] background.
* Not an act, but in the first episode of ''[[QI]]'' [[Stephen Fry]] told a story about having to explain to Prince Charles what a Prince Albert is.
{{quote| '''Danny Baker:''' Did you tell him?!<br />
Line 74:
'''Stephen:''' I said, "It's a piece of jewelry worn in an intimate area..."<br />
'''Danny:''' And he said, "Oh, a ''cock ring''!" }}
* On one skit on ''[[Whose Line Is It Anyway? (TV)|Whose Line Is It Anyway]]'', Colin Mochrie mimes doing a slide-show (presumably) depicting sexual positions; the first example is something called "Pruning the Hibiscus."
* In Brazilian sitcom ''Sai de Baixo'', Caco and Magda's favorite sex position is the "Legless Kangaroo".
* On one of the first episodes of ''[[Conan O 'Brien|Conan]]'', Conan asks TBS' Standards and Practices which terms for sex he can use on the air. Among them were the "Tokyo Sandblaster" and "taking grandma to Applebee's."
* On the sitcom ''[[Two and A Half Men]]'', "Japanese Rain Goggles" is mentioned.
* An episode of ''[[Saturday Night Live]]'' featured [[Dwayne Johnson|The Rock]] as an undercover cop who dressed up as a [[Disguised in Drag|female prostitute]] to arrest Tim Meadows' "[[Chick Magnet|Ladies Man]]" character. The Rock eventually comes clean after he admits that he can't determine if what Meadows is asking for is [[Head-Tiltingly Kinky|even sexual in nature]].
Line 105:
'''Chuck:''' I don't think we can. The supplies are usually on back order. [http://outthere.keenspot.com/d/20080321.html\] }}
** While it's never specifically stated that any of these acts are sexual (and could therefore just be straight [[Noodle Incident|Noodle Incidents]]), Sherry's embarrassment and the mere fact that Miriam is involved is compelling evidence.
* [http://xkcd.com/414/ Our copy of the Kama Sutra has a couple mistranslations...]{{spoiler|[[Xkcd (Webcomic)|which we refuse to fix.]]}}
* [http://www.smbc-comics.com/index.php?db=comics&id=2408#comic This strip] from ''[[Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal]]'' refers to "reverse triple-sodomy" and "electro-sporking". If the name is anything go go by, it's presumably the latter of those that requires [[Noodle Implements|two condoms, a certified induction coil and a three-inch-thick layer of styrofoam insulation]].
 
== [[Web Original]] ==
* The Octopus, as mentioned in ''[[Gaijin Smash]]''. Azrael won't describe the act itself, but his ex-girlfriend injured his penis while performing it on him.
* [[That Guy With theThe Glasses|''Spooning With Spoony'' and ''Linking Up With Linkara'']] had a number of these, mainly referred to by name. Such as The Staten Island Helicopter, The Oklahoma City Taco Stand, the Orlando Dolphin Flip ("[[The Nostalgia Chick (Web Video)|How did he do it with both of us at the same time]]?" "[[Marz Gurl|I thought only monks could do that]]!"), and the Puerto Rico Del Pollo.
** The Transmission Awesome webcast also makes frequent and cryptic references to [[Noodle Incident|"The Mexican Car Wash"]]
** "He used a pineapple. ''A pineapple.''"
Line 118:
* In one episode of ''[[Family Guy]]'', the family is driving along when they see Peter standing on the curb whoring himself out (literally, as he's dressed as a ''female'' prostitute). Lois goes to chew him out, but Peter acts like she's a client, rattling off a list of sex acts he's willing to perform. The one that confuses Lois is "Cleveland Steamer", which Brian starts to helpfully explain, but Peter interrupts because he sees a policeman and pretends to be giving them directions.
** In the audio commentary, the writers confess complete amazement that they got away with this one, suggesting that the censors don't know what a Cleveland Steamer is and assumed it was [[Perfectly Cromulent Word|made-up]], or had to do with [[Black Best Friend|Cleveland]].
* An episode of ''[[American Dad (Animation)|American Dad]]'' had an off-hand reference to the "Tennessee Logjam", which apparently requires three men, one woman, and a ladder.
** A sex act called the "Chuck Berry" has been referred to a few times, though they haven't said what it involves.
