Oral sex depicted in the Kama Sutra

In ancient Greece and modern Japan, fellatio has been referred to as " playing the flute "; the Kama Sutra has a chapter on auparishtaka ( or oparishtaka ), " mouth congress ".

The Ancient Indian Kama Sutra, dating from the first century AD, describes oral sex, discussing fellatio in great detail and only briefly mentioning cunnilingus.

Sexual manuals have existed since antiquity, such as Ovid's Ars Amatoria, the Kama Sutra of Vatsyayana, the Ananga Ranga and The Perfumed Garden for the Soul's Recreation.

In childhood, Vātsyāyana says, a person should learn how to make a living ; youth is the time for pleasure, and as years pass one should concentrate on living virtuously and hope to escape the cycle of rebirth. The Kama Sutra acknowledges that the senses can be dangerous: ' Just as a horse in full gallop, blinded by the energy of his own speed, pays no attention to any post or hole or ditch on the path, so two lovers, blinded by passion, in the friction of sexual battle, are caught up in their fierce energy and pay no attention to danger '( 2. 7. 33 ).
