英语词汇missionary position的起源、历史背景-英语词源词典

missionary position. The face-to-face position, man atop woman, that Christian missionaries allegedly taught converts (who were ignorant of the position) was the only proper way to have sex. I’ve been unable to ascertain whether missionaries taught or advocated this practice, and the expression was first recorded only as recently as about 1965—one would expect that the first references to this would be much older. The term’s slang antonym, dogways, was first recorded in the late 19th century in England, according to Partridge, while in the U.S. The Random House Historical Dictionary of American Slang dates dog fashion to 1900.
