What do you think these Bible verses are referring to?
It even outright mentions making out (7:9) & breast stimulation (7:7-8). When it comes to the genitalia, it becomes less explicit (for example, 3:1-4) but it is still clear what it is referring to.
With that context in mind, what do you think these verses mean?
Song 4:16 "Awake, O north wind, and come, wind of the south; make my garden breathe out fragrance. Let its spices be wafted abroad. May my beloved come into his garden and eat its choice fruits!"
Song 5:1 "I have come into my garden, my sister, my bride; I have gathered my myrrh with my spice. I have eaten my honeycomb and my honey; I have drunk my wine and my milk..."
["Sister" refers to the fact they're both children of God.]
6:2 "My beloved is gone down into his garden, to the beds of spices, to feed in the gardens, and to gather lilies."
7:2 "Thy navel is a rounded goblet that never lacks blended wine. Your waist is a mound of wheat encircled by lilies.
8:2 "I would lead you and bring you to my mother's house-- she who has taught me. I would give you spiced wine to drink, the nectar of my pomegranates."
Considering the context of the book I think it's pretty clear what these verses are alluding to. To me, the Song of Solomon is like an instruction manual to have a happy marriage and a satisfying sex life, commanded in 1 Cor 7 and Exodus 21:10.
Oral sex is important for many women to orgasm. If more people followed the example of Song of Solomon, there wouldn't be orgasm inequality.
