Beast with two backs
text:
Making the beast with two backs is a euphemistic metaphor for two persons engaged in sexual intercourse. It refers to the situation in which a couple—in the missionary position, on their sides, kneeling, or standing—cling to each other as if a single creature, with their backs to the outside. In English, the expression dates back to at least William Shakespeare's Othello: The earliest known occurrence of the phrase is in Rabelais's Gargantua and Pantagruel as the phrase la bête à deux dos.
