As I understand it, the man and woman keep their legs relatively straight. So the image chosen (which is described as "missionary" and has both participants' legs spread) doesn't seem entirely appropriate. Jonathan Harford ( talk) 17:12, 20 December 2008 (UTC)
I'm removing the "tiny pants" comment. Upon further investigation, the item in question is an open condom wrapper, not that this needs to be noted either. bigelectric June 30 2009
This entry is illiterate. I also have a suspicion that it's not really a serious entry, but hey ho - each to their own. GRAHAMUK 04:54 23 Jul 2003 (UTC)
NPOV -- it can't be stimulating to every girl, or inevitably give massive orgasms. -- Calieber 03:12, 28 Sep 2003 (UTC)
Yes and no. It does physically directly stimulate the clitoris. Whether or not the woman enjoys direct clitoral stimulation or if this will generate massive orgasms is certainly an individual thing. Olias7 ( talk) 17:18, 30 June 2009 (UTC)
So CAT is basically one kind of missionary position right? I was wondering whether to include it as a variant at missionary position. It certainly looks like missionary. Sarsaparilla ( talk) 14:16, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
It doesn't necessarily have to be the missionary position. There seems to be some confusion as to this technique, perhaps revolving around the entry stating that the clitoris is stimulated by the "base of the penis". Obviously if the male is penetrating, then no part of the penis is physically able to contact the clitoris. Basically to do this technique, the male penetrates to the point where his mons pubis area is snugly against the female's clitoris, then both partners move their pelvises while maintaing that contact, rather than having these areas separate in the more usual "in-out" sort of penetration. The legs don't need to be relatively straight as mentioned above, and to specifically refer to the positions in the "List of sexual positions" entry, this could be done in the "missionary", "cowgirl" or "lotus" positions.

Flyer22 thanks for your question and for picking me up. I'm happy to concede Eichel defined CAT (I think it said devised previously). CAT can be reversed so the woman is on top, sources 1, 2, 3, 4 and the book Sex: Reference to Go: Playful Positions to Spice Up Your Love Life By Dawn Harper Flat Out let's discuss it 03:15, 6 August 2014 (UTC)

I'm rather disappointed by this Wikipedia item. Usually I rate Wikipedia stuff pretty highly for both interest and accuracy but this description misses some crucial elements and the illustration is way off!
I first came across CAT in an article by Philip Nobile called 'are you a CAT lover?' which I think was published in 'Cosmopolitan' in the late eighties/early nineties. (I've kept the article but there isn't a publication identity or date on any of the pages.) The article describes Edward Eichel as not only studying but having devised the technique. It also seems to be pretty accurate regarding the elements of the technique, matching other descriptions I've found on the web. The acid test will be reading Dr Eichel's book 'The Perfect Fit: How to Achieve Mutual Fulfillment and Monogamous Passion through The New Intercourse.' (published by Signet) which would appear to be the definitive text for laymen. There is also a video 'Orgasm the Natural Way' - check out www.marriagescience.com. As to whether CAT works - when I first read the article nearly two decades ago I wasn't particularly experienced and remember thinking that one would first need to find a bloke with a 'L' shaped penis! I've still not tried CAT as described by Eichel - but from other similar experiences (and a much improved knowledge of the relevant anatomy) I can say that I can't see any reason why, with a willing partner and bit of practice, it wouldn't be very effective. (Which is why I've looked it up in the first place! ;-D) Mrs40Something 20:23, 8 June 2007 (UTC) |
