Talk:anilingus
I'd like to see some verification for the synonym "asian". Otherwise I'd like to see that synonym removed, as it is probably just a general derogatory term that can be applied to anyone ?--Richardb 13:41, 8 March 2006 (UTC)
"asian" is slang usage for analingus
In response to the post by "Richardb":
Lots of sexual positions and acts have slang names that refer to cultures or roles:
russian = male genitals on breasts greek = anal sex
... and I can name others. Is the term "missionary sex" derogatory towards missionaries? Is the "cowgirl" sexual position derogatory towards female ranch hands? I submit: no. And, if you are someone who likes anal sex, you wouldn't find the term derogatory toward Greeks.
Who knows how "asian" has come to be equated with analingus, but it is in common usage in the sex trade industry. I don't believe it is any more derogatory towards Asians that stating "doggie style" sex is degrading towards dogs.
Although these citations are far from ironclad academic references, these disparate sources all do recount the same slang usage:
