Examples

“End ikke vores sex er spændende. Hun laver søstjernen hver eneste gang.”

Not even our sex is exciting. She does the starfish every single time.

“Samtidig har forestillingen om den passive og modtagende kvinde været med til at skabe en forventning om, at man som kvinde kan lave ”søstjernen” – lægge sig på ryggen og afvente mandens initiativ.”

Meanwhile, the notion of the passive and receptive woman has contributed to creating an expectation that, as a woman, one can do "the starfish" - lie on one's back and await the man's initiative.
