Sinister: Arab Strap enquiry

[Mark Iles]

David kindly explained:

>An arab strap is a leather device that a man wears during sex to help
>enhance the
>experience. It is in the most primitive form simply a
>g-string made of leather, which has a ring of smooth steel that
>accomodates the
>penis. This ring is placed lower than is natural and as such
>forces the penis to stand out more, it is this unnatural position which
>causes the
>sensation to be enhanced and for the erection to be
>maintained. the difference between this and viagra is that on an arab
>strap the
>steel ring will also serve to increase the female sensation as it
>massages the clitoris during sex and helps to give the woman a more intense
>orgasm.

Maybe I'm just a little too innocent or just plain confused, but if this
ring is down at the base of the penis, then how does it get anywhere near
the clitoris?

If it turns out I've said something silly, I'm going to go all red.
