The Kama Sutra stands up (pun intended) to anything written today on the subject of sex. Not only does it detail what we think it should, sex positions, it provides detailed descriptions of everything from courting techniques to aphrodisiacs, when, why and how to leave a ‘love mark’, the ‘64′ Arts all cultured folks should know, the ‘64′ love-arts all cultured folks should know and a whole lot more.
The Kama (Pleasure) Sutra (short aphorisms) was meant to be interpreted by an experienced aunt, mom, sister, or confidant for every elegable young woman in the ancient Indian world. If this had been something that continued today our world as ;we know it would be radically different. I still hold out hope!
