bed trick
The bed trick is a plot device in traditional literature and folklore; it involves a substitution of one partner in the sex act with a third person (in the words of Wendy Doniger, "going to bed with someone whom you mistake for someone else"). In the standard and most common form of the bed trick, a man goes to a sexual assignation with a certain woman, and without his knowledge that woman's place is taken by a substitute.
==In traditional literature==
Instances of the bed trick exist in the traditional literatures of many human cultures.〔Wendy Doniger, ''The Bedtrick: Tales of Sex and Masquerade'', Chicago, University of Chicago Press, 2000.〕 It can be found in the Old Testament: in Genesis Chapter 29 Laban substitutes Leah for Rachel on Jacob's wedding night, as Jacob discovers the following morning. Other examples range throughout the Western canon (several occur in Arthurian romance, as well as in Chaucer's "The Reeve's Tale") and can be paralleled by instances in non-Western cultures.〔Geert Jan Van Gelder, ''Close Relationships: Incest and Inbreeding in Classical Arabic Literature'', New York, I. B. Tauris, 2005; pp. 145–6 and ff.〕
