'How they love to make the beast'
What does Klopfner mean? Was he referring to some Jewish sexual practice?
shareIt was an abbreviated version of the phrase "make the beast with two backs," which is a very old saying meaning "to have sex."
Shakespeare used it in Othello.

Why did you think there was such a thing as a "Jewish sexual practice?"
..guess it's called 'doggy style' now a days?
Beast with one back is mastubating, or maybe I'm wrong?
.guess it's called 'doggy style' now a days?
Nope -- the expression refers to two people having sex face-to-face. Since they are facing one another, the "beast" they create has only backs facing out towards the world. share
Hmm, did not know that;-0! But what is the missionary position then. If not the same?
It is the same. It can also apply to face-to-face sex standing up, which I don't think the phrase "missionary position" covers (never thought about it until now, to be honest).
There are probably lots of names for face-to-face sex, as well as for other positions. Humans seem to have a near-infinite ability to make up witty, gross, or slyly euphemistic names for sexual positions and acts, that go out of style and get replaced by others.
I just happened to know the "beast" one, which was still around more in the time the movie is set (and my youth, since I was born about a decade later).
;-D So Doggy style is okay in your good book, or/erh..?
Hmm, might have to recall a few "products" then...Naah NEVER! I'm a Dane(not a great one, at the moment - 2016 boarders etc.) though:-(
OnTOP: Who said NAZI-movies can't be constructive;-P I'll take missionary AND doggy before "numbers" in a "nice house" ANYtime!
Thanks says Gasi'
