Of course, his next piece of advice, should she for some strange reason, not be interested is that in some cases 'she is available, but by force when they are alone.' Not so good. Being able to read these signals is an art. Women are generally going to give off some hints, some signals telling you whether or not they are interested. For example, Vatsyayana says that 'One needs to study a woman's behaviour when making a pass at her.' Very true.

On the other hand, some of the advice is spot on, and modern males could still learn from it. This is something that is often denied still today. 2) Vatsyayana openly says that women can have strong sexual drives. 1) Vatsyayana also wrote this with women in mind, and included discussions of how a woman can come to have power over her lover or husband.

Still, I was somewhat impressed with two things. Now, considering that it's from roughly the third century CE, women are obviously property. One thing I read for particularly was the treatment of women. My own theory is that people came up with a bunch more positions while trying to figure out the ones Vatsyayana described, with limited detail.įrom a historian's viewpoint, this was a really neat book to read. Certainly, Vatsyayana does describe a fair number, but probably not as many as are in the books that have been published. Reading this, I'm a bit curious how the work became known as a book full of pictures of sexual positions. Disappointed? Well, there's always the cover and the inside flaps. This new edition of The Kama Sutra does not have any pictures of how to accomplish the sexual positions. Only one chapter focuses on sexual positions, although the other chapters do include other sexual acts. Yes, it is about sex, but, more than that, it is a study of pleasure, of courtship. Right? Well, for those of you laughing at me or looking at me askance, maybe you don't know quite so much as you think you do. Everyone knows what The Kama Sutra is about.
