Travel and sex are mutually reinforcing, just like sex and travel. If you, like us, get excited at the thought of these two words together, it's because they evoke all kinds of outdoor adventures. However, the world is a vast and ancient place. Even though your mind is full of imagination, even the most curious consumers of LELO will always encounter some sexual behaviors that are shocking.

Wack Like an Egyptian

In ancient Egypt, the flow of the Nile River was believed to be caused by the ejaculation of the primordial god Atum. To commemorate him, the Egyptian pharaohs would engage in ritual self-pleasure in the Nile River to ensure the longevity of the river.

The More the Marry Her

During the Gerewol festival in Niger, members of the Wodaabe tribe put on ornamental clothing and makeup, with the intention of stealing other men's wives. During the "celebration", men project their inherent courtship abilities towards women. If she falls in love with Tokou, polygamous marriage will be recognized.

All in the Family

Who says three people constitute a group? In the remote and land-scarce depths of the Himalayas, families with multiple sons have to divide the land each time a son gets married. However, in order to keep the land within the family, the parents will find a wife for all the brothers to share, thereby keeping the land within the family.

Wet & Wild

Every July, the local voodoo believers flock to the Saut d'Eau waterfall in central Haiti to pay homage to the god of love. In a rather unconventional expression of love, the participants take off their clothes, roll around in water and mud, and throw in some animal blood, as well as the heads of cows and goats.

Coming of Age

No one understands the coming-of-age ceremony more literally than the Sami people of Papua New Guinea. From the age of seven to eighteen, boys have no contact with women and live only with men. When they officially become men, members of the Inuit tribe must consume the semen of elders to promote growth and strength.
