Tribadism

From WikiPorn

Tribadism or tribbing is a form of mutual masturbation, sometimes called "non-penetrative sex," in which a woman rubs her vulva against her partner's body for sexual stimulation. The term is most often used in the context of lesbian sexual practices, but is not exclusive to lesbians. Tribadism sometimes involves female-to-female genital contact, but more often refers to a female rubbing her vulva against her partner's thigh, arm or stomach. Tribadism can also refer to a masturbation technique in which a woman rubs her vulva against an inanimate object such as a bolster in an effort to achieve orgasm.

[edit] History

Until the 20th century, the term was used to refer to lesbian sexual practices in general. Therefore, lesbians were occasionally called tribades.

[edit] Colloquialisms

Genital-genital tribadism is known by many colloquialisms such as "scissoring" - which refers to the leg movements, "bumping donuts", "clit-clatting", "clam clashing", "pussy grinding", "mashing cookies", "grinding beans", "clam jousting", "touching tacos", "taco bumping" or "bumping fur". In the Philippines, this practice is known as kiskisan.

[edit] Tribadism in popular culture

• The glam Pop music band Scissor Sisters derive their name from the scissoring position.
• Other bands named after tribadism include Scissorfight and the lesbian Punk band Tribe.
• Genital-genital tribadism was depicted three times during the D-Yikes! episode of the cartoon South Park, referred to in that episode as "scissoring"

[edit] Disease

Since genital to genital contact with possible fluidic exchange does indeed occur in tribadism, it is possible to contract a sexually transmitted disease from the practice. Thus, it should be practiced with the same regard for safety as any other sexual act where genital to genital contact occurs to avoid transmission.
