How do you think they pass all that time with no technology? Sure, they missed The Wire and Deadwood, but they’ve discovered sexual techniques that are still 150 years out for the rest of us.
If we are talking about devoted Amish, they literally only have sex for the purpose of procreation, sometimes through a sheet in some cases. Sex for recreation, including oral or anal, are verboten under the Amish Ordnung oral traditions.
In practice, there is sexual “deviancey” and sex had with some degree of knowledge that doing so is not strictly for procreation. Due to cultural aspects, there is shame brought in by such things that they have to get right with God about. Rumspringa, think last repreve before devoting to the Amish life, is usually when young Amish sow some wild oats with some abandon with the English(outsiders) if they so choose.
If you are a single man going through Amish country and see a mailbox with a bag on it, it is an invitation to donate your genetics to the community. Don’t expect hot and steamy throws of passion, you are fucking through a sheet while the elders preside over the breeding session in the same room.
To be fair, maybe fucking through a sheet IS the advanced sexual practice of the future and we’re missing out. I, for one, have never tried it. I tend to think I’m above it, because “normal” to me is the horrifying display of unfortunate nude bodies and their fluids clumsily flailing about until she gets upset for one reason or another. Maybe with a sheet, it’d be easier to picture something nice? Tell me more about the elders presiding over my breeding session?
Joking aside, I’m legitimately fascinated now. I know there was a reality show, but are there any more bookish sources about Amish sexual practices, or do you know more? I suddenly have questions.
There was a book written a while ago that talked a lot about the breeding habits and sexuality of the Amish, I haven’t read it so I don’t know if they cover the rare practice of semen donor solicitation from the pre-industrial age.
who hasn’t had this happen to them more than once
A devote Amish, I’d assume.
