Slaps her genitals with the palm of her hand: if, consenting to the contact, she hits her genitals, even with a water-lily leaf, she commits an offense entailing confession.

Non-offenses There is no offense:

if she does it because she is sick; if she is insane; if she is the first offender. The third training rule is finished.

Theravāda Collection on Monastic Law The Nuns’ Analysis The chapter on offenses entailing confession The subchapter on garlic Using a dildo

Origin story At one time the Buddha was staying at Sāvatthī in the Jeta Grove, Anāthapiṇḍika’s Monastery. At that time a woman who had previously belonged to the king’s harem had gone forth as a nun. Another nun who was plagued by lust went to that nun and said, “Venerable, the king only came to you at long intervals. How did you cope?” “With a dildo.” “What’s a dildo?” That nun described a dildo to her. The other nun then used a dildo. But she forgot to wash it before disposing of it in a certain place. The nuns saw it covered with flies, and they said, “Who did this?” “I did it,” she replied.
