Sex word is a taboo in many parts of the world. It’s a three letter word that is talked of in hushed tones both inside and outside the bedroom not just in our country but other nations as well. Be it because of the cultural factor or the general shyness associated with the topic, there’s something weird about the word that often discourages people from talking about it. Even though there’s an ‘air of abnormality’ associated with the topic, many places across the globe practice weird sex traditions that will make you scratch your head (literally!).

Here’s a list of some weird traditions that will make you go WTF:

1) Temporary marriage in Iran

We all know that Muslims practice some of the strictest marriage laws in the world. However, contrary to popular practices, young couples in Iran are allowed to get intimate before they are ready to marry by requesting for ‘temporary marriage’ or ‘Nikah Mut’ah‘. A private contract is signed with a declaration of intent to marry.

4) Semen drinking Sambian tribe of Papua, New Guinea

This one will surely make you gag but the Sambian tribe of New Guinea separate boys from girls at the age of 7-10 years. During this period, males undergo piercings and nosebleeds. They even have to drink the semen of the tribe’s mightiest warriors.

5) Sexually active Trobriander tribe of Papua, New Guinea

While there are places, where even thinking of sex is a sin, children in the Trobriander tribe of New Guinea engage in sexual activities from a young age. While the age for boys is 10-12 years, the age for girls is 6-8 years.
