SEX WORSHIP RELICS 

Talisman or lucky charm

The ancient Chinese believed that the female genitals had the power to counter evil spells. 

A bird was the symbol of male genitalia, while the fish was a symbol of female genitalia.  A bird with a fish in its mouth indicated worship of sexuality. 

Double –fish symbolises the female genitals. 

The ancient Chinese believed that sexual intercourse could help ward off evil.  So they would hang pictures from the roof beams of their houses in a belief that the Fire God would not dare visit.  It implies worship of sexual intercourse. 

Bone concertina with pictures of sexual intercourse was used to help ward off evil spirits.

Porcelain Boxes

In old China, there was another sex education tool which was called a “yaxiangdi” (literal meaning “at the bottom of the truck”)   It was a porcelain box on the lid and sides of which was some innocuous object such as a boat or flowers.  However on the inside of the lid and the bottom of the base unit were pictures of people engaged in sexual intercourse.

Before a daughter was to be married, a mother would some times take out the “yaxiangdi” and open the lid, giving the daughter some idea of what to expect on her wedding night.
