{{quote| '''Ren:''' ''Holy cow, that looks pretty complicated...''<br />

'''Miu:''' '''''IS SHE SPINNING!?''''' }}

== [[Comic Books]] ==

* The "Elvish Tickler," in ''[[The Incredible Hercules]]''.

* Two of [[Dori Seda]]'s works feature a foursome which look... difficult.

 

* 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| 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 />

 

== [[Literature]] ==

{{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." }}

* 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.

* ''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]] ==

* 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.

* 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.

** 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]].

* 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 Daily Show]]'' likes to make references to these (the "Dirty Sanchez" being a particular favorite).

* 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 />

'''Stephen:''' I said, "It's a piece of jewelry worn in an intimate area..."<br />

'''Danny:''' And he said, "Oh, a ''cock ring''!" }}

* In Brazilian sitcom ''Sai de Baixo'', Caco and Magda's favorite sex position is the "Legless Kangaroo".

* 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]].

'''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://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.

** The Transmission Awesome webcast also makes frequent and cryptic references to [[Noodle Incident|"The Mexican Car Wash"]]

** "He used a pineapple. ''A pineapple.''"

* 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]].

** A sex act called the "Chuck Berry" has been referred to a few times, though they haven't said what it involves.
