The
Cosmo Kama Sutra
77
Mind-numbing Sex Positions
Cosmo’s latest attempt at reinventing sex falls short of its goal
as do many sex manuals promising many new and exciting techniques.
The Cosmo Kama Sutra: 77 Mind-blowing Sex Positions is supposed
to be based on the sexual guide of the Kama Sutra, an ancient
Sanskrit text. However, what many fail to realize is that the
Kama Sutra is much more than a guide to sexual positions, it is
a treatise on relationships and society, with only one of its
seven parts devoted to sex.
Cosmo’s
version, though updated for the modern reader with clever positions
such as “Romp with a View” is less than revolutionary. Though
it includes small sections on sex-related activities such as “Mood
Makers vs. Deal Breakers” and “Lube Lowdown” (a guide to choosing
the right lubrication), its primary focus — sex positions — is
derivative and trite.
Each
of the 77 positions is illustrated with bright colors and sharp
angles. Unlike other sex guides, which provide elaborate illustrations
or photographs, Cosmo delivers two-dimensional figures that lack
shading, realistic features or detail of any kind. Although the
angles are varied in order to allow the most comprehensive view
of each position, readers will have difficulty understanding the
realistic difficulties or advantages of each pose because of the
absence of any anatomical detail.
Many of the positions described would be impractical for couples
in which either partner is larger than a size three. Twosomes
with great height differences will also have difficulty. The Cosmo
Kama Sutra is a mediocre approach to appease surface, pop culture
sexuality.
