If you have read Trevanian’s novel Shibumi, you remember the hero who was an Übermensch martial arts warrior. He had absolute self-discipline over body and mind, and had mastered the secret art of killing silently, swiftly, and efficiently with no weapons. OK, I know this is all just the ridiculous macho fantasy of a hack fiction writer. But it was the sex part I wanted to know more about.
He had a Japanese girlfriend who was also a master of the physical and mental martial arts. When they made love, they did not do it body-to-body. Oh no, that would have been just like the ordinary humans they despised. Instead, they sat wearing kimonos at opposite sides of the room, facing each other and meditating. They used their mental concentration to give orgasms to each other this way. They even held contests to see who could hold out longer from being orgasmed by the other.
OK, if you can stop laughing long enough to respond, I am seriously wondering if such a sexual technique has ever really been developed at the top levels of such disciplines.
Maybe something like “Demolition Man” where Sandra Bullock’s character thinks that any physical “fluid exchange” is repulsive and old-fashioned? So they use some kind of headset/virtual reality/mindwave thing.
Will it ever come to this? Man, I hope not!
But since telepathy isn’t possible as far as I know, the situation in the OP is not possible.
That sort of thing wouldn’t be possible without some form of telepathy. I doubt you’ll find many believers around here.
However, it may be possible for some people to bring themselves to orgasm mentally (see Uncle Cecil’s column on the subject). If the Japanese girlfriend could do this, she might mistakenly come (heh heh) to believe that the cause was her macho b/f and not her own mental prowess.
Not in the same room, but a former lover and I used to play this game via phone. If you’re one of those people who’s able to orgasm without any physical stimulation, I don’t see why it wouldn’t also work in the situation outlined in the OP.
My brother once ran this through me. He said that the human nervous system must be about 4 volts & if you could connect with everyone else in that mental way, you would be taking in billions of volts. How long could the human nervous system take that?
looks around sheepishlyI can. And while I couldn’t, like, mentally e-mail somebody sitting across the room from me an orgasm, if the other person could make it mentally, too, the over-all effect would be sort of what the OP was saying.
