Food and sexuality : ウィキペディア英語版 | Food and sexuality
Food and sexuality have been associated in various ways throughout history. Foods such as chocolate and oysters are said to be aphrodisiacs.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Aphrodisiacs )〕 In some cultures animal testicles and other items are consumed to increase sexual potency. Food items also provide symbolism, such as the biblical "forbidden fruit" or the cherry with its associations related to virginity. Food items are also used metaphorically in slang sexual terminology and poetry. Some foods are considered sensual for their appearance, texture and taste. Whipped cream, melted chocolate, jam, strawberries that are often dipped in chocolate and peanut butter are sometimes used for intimate titillation. The relationship between food and sex has also been explored in books and cinema. ==Art and literature==
The connection between food and sexuality has been explored in various art works. A 1998 art show, ''Reflect'', an exhibition of works by Monali Meher explored connections and themes including voyeurism, stereotypes, consumerism, freedom and advertising.〔Niyatee Shinde (The Same Old Sexuality ) October 28, 1998 〕 A display of food and sex related artworks from 19th- and 20th-century American artists was one of 16 concept groupings at a New York Historical Society show in 1991.〔Molly O'Neill (Of the Palate, From the Palette ) January 18, 1991 New York Times〕
