There are only a few women who have ever heard the word "tribadism" (or:
"trib") and even less women actually know what it means; although, there are
many women who have done it already or at least thought about trib in their fantasies.
Tribadism comes from the Greek word "tribo" (to rub). Its meaning originally
is the mutual rubbing of the external genitalia of a woman against those of another woman,
particularly clit rubbing against clit or the clit rubbing against any other sensual part
of the other female body, to erect the clits and/or to obtain sexual pleasure for one or
both of the two women.
"Tribadism" in its narrowest meaning is simply "the contact of
two female outer genitalia."

"Tribadism (Trib)" in a broader meaning is the rubbing of
the female genitalia on any parts of the other female body (e.g. on a thigh, breast, back,
foot or on the flexed biceps of the female partner). Also, rubbing of breasts and/or
nipples on the female partner's body might be called tribadism in a broader meaning. Trib
works well in the nude and even fully dressed. Therefore, having a sexual trib experience
with another woman is quite possible in many places, theoretically even in public areas.
For instance, while dancing together, walking closely together in a park, sunbathing on a
beach, standing together in a pool, or with their knees under the table in a restaurant,
women can participate in tribadism. Trib is a perfect test for bisexual or lesbian
beginners who want to try sex with another woman for the first time, particularly when
they are not yet brave enough to touch the intimate parts of another female body with
their tongue or with their fingers. Trib works quite well as a "quickie" in the
dressing room as well as in the restroom, even better in the nude under the showers of the
gym or even more excitingly in the elevator. Women who want to have fun with another woman
and who find other women to be erotic could have lesbian sex without any preparations at
all and come immediately when they try to do some trib.
The gay rubbing of two male bodies or two erect cocks on each other is NOT
called "tribadism" but rather "frot" or "frottage."
This has nothing to do with tribadism and therefore you won't find it on this website at
all. However, frottage is to bisexual and gay men exactly as exciting as what trib is to
women.
It is not clear if the heterosexual rubbing of two bodies, one of a man and one of a
woman, can be called tribadism. There exist different opinions. We believe that it can be
called tribadism as long as the woman is dominant and active and as long as there is no
kind of penetration happening. However, as soon as the man becomes the sexually active
part then we can no longer call this activity "tribadism." In any case, we do
not plan to promote this said heterosexual tribadism on this website.
On this website, we will only regard tribadism as being between two women, but
in as many possible variations and fantasies.

The attempt to penetrate another woman with their own clit, if possible, or rather
using sex toys (e.g. strap-on dildos) is not called "tribadism" today as opposed
to views of the older cultures. This is called "lesbian penetration" today. In
the past however, men believed that the active penetration was impossible for any woman to
do and therefore; all direct contact of the female genitals, including the possible female
clitoral penetration, had been called "tribadism." However today, this is seen
to be different.
The Greeks called any active lesbian women the "TRIBADES." The well known
words "lesbian," "sapphic" or "bisexual" we have only used
for a short while in our languages. Before that, all women who had sex with another woman
and who were the active part in the sexual relationship have been called the
"Tribades." The Tribade (from the Greek word "tribas")
means, a woman who has morbid (pervert) sexual contact with another woman,
particularly by rubbing her genitals on the genitals of the other woman.
Please note the expression "morbid/pervert sexual contact." This negative
expression was only used for tribadism, but not for any other lesbian activity like
fingering or oral sex. This is because men found tribadism as some kind of challenge for
them since it was similar to their own sex.
However, those women who were behaving just passively during tribadism were not seen as
being morbid. They were the "submissive women" who were said to be
"raped" by the Tribade for the purpose of her masturbation goal. The Tribade was
overtaking the part of the man in the imagination of the antique man's' world. Female
homosexuality was not viewed as being immoral before the 20th century so long as the woman
took part as the usually passive woman. Even lesbian tribadism was seen as natural then
except for the role of the active female Tribade.
In Islamic countries, men did tolerate tribadism. They compared the sexual demand of
women for other women with a natural desire creating a strong itching and demand for
warmth in the female genitals. Only the rubbing of the vagina on another woman would solve
the itching. Therefore, they compare the trib love of two women with the grinding of
saffron that is made into powder between two tiny plates. It was not just the demand for
pleasure that pushed the women of the harem to have sex with other girls. They did not
have to fear losing their virginity or becoming pregnant.
We are finding many reports about tribadism from Oriental bath houses where the women,
isolated from men, could care for their bodies and their beauty. Of course, there was a
law that women had to cover their genitals in the bath houses, but they usually either did
not care or they covered their own genitals with the genitals of their girlfriends;
although, in the Orient it was also considered obscene when women had sex with other
women. The little "difference" creating the tolerance, not unlike the Occident,
was the fact that there was no penetration possible between two women, at least in the
belief of men. There has not been any big difference regarding the tolerance of tribadism
in comparing the Orient to the West.
Lesbian love did not exist officially as recently as 100 years ago. Since it did not
officially exist, it could not have been prosecuted. However, the active Tribade always
looked fishy and dubious to men since she represented the demand for
"penetration" of "defenceless" women. Therefore, the Tribade was
always seen as morbid and pervert as she was a competitor of male sexuality while the
passive woman was seen just as the poor victim. Men did not see any REAL penetration being
possible in tribadism, since in their old imaginations "a woman had
nothing to penetrate another woman with." However, the positions of
direct clit to clit contact were dubious enough for men, particularly when the tribade had
a huge clit and when the passive woman got any pleasure thereof. It's interesting that in
the old genre picture regarding tribadism, the men did always think about one
active and one passive woman. In their imaginations, they
translated one woman always into the role of the active and dominant man. They did not
imagine that women can always change their roles during tribadism, often more than once,
from active to passive, both active, or even both being passive. They did not imagine that
women can receive pleasure by exchanging their roles with the other women during sex. Men
probably did not even want think about it.
Up to today, many men view tribadism rather negatively. Sadly, most available lesbian
pictures and clips do not accept tribadism as an exciting sexual pleasure for women. Of
course, men like to watch lesbian women, but particularly when the women are having oral
sex or when they are using dildos on each other. Tribadism, however, isn't represented
enough compared to how important it is for lesbians and bisexual women in real life. This
is probably because many men still fear the competition of women when they are taking on
(at least part of) the male role without using any kind of artificial sex toys.
One should know some facts about tribadism better, at least today, before calling a
woman a Tribade. In the ancient times, women were called Tribades when they did attempt to
penetrate another woman (or sometimes even a man). In other words, they were believed to
have the ability to insert their clit into the vagina of another woman (or even to
penetrate the anus of a man).
By definition, Tribades must have a penis-like clit (erect usually longer than 1.5
inches and the diameter more than 0.5 inch). They are able to use their clits to penetrate
other women like men. Tribades, in the ancient times, were usually fit and athletic women.
Some were even warriors and they did a lot to care for their bodies. Tribades worked out
like men did, particularly in physical sports like wrestling and boxing and some were even
trained for battles and warfare. The use of the word "Tribade" for the woman in
ancient times sometimes had more to do with her position in society than with her sexual
orientation. Therefore, not all of these women who were called "Tribades" in
ancient times were lesbians or had any lesbian sexual relationships. However, it should be
mentioned too that not all people who had been called "Tribades" were actually
even women. Sometimes hermaphrodites or homosexual young men who displayed female
behaviours were called Tribades as well.
If a woman today enjoys lesbian tribadism for her sexual pleasure, then she isn't
necessarily a Tribade. Regardless of if the woman prefers to be active or passive, she
isn't necessarily a Tribade just by enjoying tribadism or by sexually acting as a lesbian.
Today, tribadism is not just defined by being a lesbian. Of course, real tribadism can
only be enjoyed by two or more women. However, a woman doesn't necessarily have to be a
lesbian to enjoy tribadism or trib games because tribadism stimulates heterosexual
sexuality quite similarly. Many heterosexual women have already had some trib experiences
and they have enjoyed themselves in doing so without being Tribades or even lesbians.
Today, as opposed to in ancient times, tribadism isn't just the "active Tribade"
versus the "passive woman." Tribadism is enjoyed by sexually confident women and
it is an exciting sexual activity without any significant passive or active role playing.
Tribadism is by far the most preferred activity in lesbian sexuality.
95% of all bisexual women who have had lesbian sex only once or twice in their lives
answered, in a questionnaire from a sexual science institute when asked about trib, that
they preferred the trib style for their sexual pleasure. It's a normal answer since
tribadism is the most simple, most natural and, for many women, the most exciting way to
give sexual pleasure to each other. Tribadism enables women to look into each other's
eyes. They can kiss each other. Their arms are free to caress the other female body,
particularly the breasts. The positions aren't new for heterosexual women either; it is
just that the sex partner is a female. Women can perform trib in the standing position, as
a so called "Quickie" (e.g. in dressing rooms or in the showers), as well as
when they are sitting or flat on the floor or bed. They do not even need to take their
dresses off to enjoy some exciting trib sex. The chance for a female to have her climax
during trib activity is most likely greater than any other thinkable lesbian activity,
particularly because trib enables both women to control the speed of their body rubbing,
the intensity and the pressure of their own and of the opposite body during their sexual
activity. Both women are always able to do what they feel is best for them and for their
climax.
Interestingly enough, even 70% of experienced lesbians who have had lesbian sex more
than twice in their lives have said that they prefer tribadism. Lesbian sex with
hands/fingers (15%), oral sex (12%), sex toys (dildos and strap-on dildos) (2%) and the
other (1%) does not even come close to tribadistic sexual activities preferred by
lesbians.
Also interesting, is that many men expect lesbian women to have sex like they see it
happen in usual porn movies. If you ask men about "what lesbian women are
doing," they will always say that oral sex is the most popular technique followed by
the use of strap-on dildos.
Since in reality, some kind of trib is actually the most popular female lesbian
fantasy; the male dominated porn industry and many men's fantasies too often ignore this
matter of fact. This is probably because, not unlike the ancient times, tribadism even
today is seen by men as a competition and as a female challenge to their own heterosexual
activity. Men would feel challenged by a woman if she would fuck another woman perhaps
better than they can or when a woman can make another woman come by touching her genitals
with her erect clit. Many men do not want this to be true. Only recently, tribadism has
been made more popular by some special erotic movies and by some websites.

Women who like to enjoy the genitals of their female partners and particularly women
who do not become wet easily when aroused should use some oil or cream for their genitals
because it makes it easier to glide and grind across the other woman. Alternatively, one
might also want to wear a thong. The sexual excitement created from trib can be as strong
as or even more sensational when wearing a thong than if you were nude. Although an
infection with sexually transmitted disease is quite unlikely while doing tribadism as
compared to most other sexual activities, everybody should always think about it before
doing, for example, a "Quickie" with an unknown partner since there is
always a danger of an infection possible, as little as it might be. Tribadism does allow
either one or both females to wear a thong during their sex play. It is quite unlikely
that a woman would lose a lot of sexual excitement by wearing a thong. On the contrary, if
both women do not have a very well shaved crotch, then the excitement and the sexual
pleasure will particularly rise when one wears the thong since it will feel to be much
smoother. Some women even prefer to have their trib sex when both wear tight jeans or even
pantyhose.
Whatever positions during trib one chooses, it is certainly recommended to shave your
pubic area when you prefer it in the nude. It is not a disadvantage to use some oil or
cream to make the grinding easier. Hair, particularly when it is cut short, can often
create real pain or red skin when the grinding becomes erratic. This can reduce the
pleasure and could even prevent a climax. Of course, lots of unshaved pubic hair will
always prevent the feel of your partner, what you originally wanted to feel
.

Positions during trib are various and there are almost no limits when trying to cover
any and all female fantasies. We are trying to submit as many different trib fantasies on
our website as possible.

The open scissors has one big advantage, but has also several smaller
disadvantages. The big advantage is that both females can easily find the crotches and
clits of their partner. They can find and actually touch the top of the other clit exactly
with theirs if they like. They can both control the intensity, pressure and strength of
the actual contact as much as they find it to be convenient and exciting. The weight and
size of the partner, opposed to other positions, is irrelevant. Too much pressure from
their partner can be controlled by moving their own hips in the other direction. Many
women may find great pleasure when performing this position and it creates a wide variety
of additional positions if more than two women are involved. However, beginners should
know that this position does not satisfy all women. Some even hate it. Although most
female trib fantasies are about this position, in reality it lacks visual contact (for
many women it is important to see the face of the partner!) and it lacks the possibility
to touch the rest of the body, except for the thighs, of the other woman (e.g. breasts,
mouth, arms). It also lacks the chance of being touched and caressed by their partner. |

Wrestling is not tribadism by definition. Since it is a sport, no sexual elements
exist. However, as an erotic foreplay, wrestling each other can be certainly erotic, and
some of its accidental positions could be quite similar to tribadism. Particularly, the so
called "sexfight" between two women will systematically ignore the sport and
instead introduce its erotic elements. If two females move each other into tribadistic
positions during an erotic wrestling match, perhaps sometimes even by accident, and if the
two females like and agree to enjoy their bodies, then sometimes they will end up in
tribadism. Ideally this kind of competitive tribadism will end in mutual orgasms for both
women.

The so called pussyfight is a sole lesbian, tribadistic competition between two women.
Both women will try to use many different trib positions either to make their opponent
submit or to make her come first. However, the pussyfight is more a popular male fantasy
than that it is a lesbian reality. However, there are rumours existing that some fashion
models who, due to their jobs, cannot afford to get any bruises from catfighting would
often agree to have a pussyfight with each other to settle their differences and to prove
to her rival who the better woman is. It is perhaps the softest, but, for the two females,
most sexually exciting form of a catfight.
