For some, it usually is clearly outside the female genitals. In general a girl of the West is beautiful, splendorous, and more courageous than others. Her behavior is coarse, and her face is like a man's. There is even hair around her mouth. Fearless and terrifying, she can be tamed only by passion. Able to suck the phallus at the time of play, the girl of the West is known to drink the seminal fluid. She does it even with dogs, bulls, and any other animals and with father and son, etc. She goes without hesitation with whoever can give the enjoyment of sex. Some of the type who have a large clitoris have both sex signs or change back and forth from one to the other. There are a great many women who, from a little change in physique, have become males. Similarly, it is well known that some men whose penis retracts greatly inside have become women. Whoever's wife has powerful passion, his family lineage will definitely all be boys. Therefore, those who wish to have boys should choose and take a passionate woman. As an example, the Sho-mang1 plant, which is soft and shriveled, when it is soaked by water becomes hard and swells up. Just so, when drops of blood collect together, the male and female organs erect and swell. When bliss is generated in the private parts, the mind's attention goes to that spot; by that cause, the vital winds [i.e., energies] and the blood gather, filling the middle of the male member whereupon the phallus erects. The passion of a man is light and easy to rouse; the passion of a woman is deep and hard to rouse. identified by Sarat Chandra Das, A Tibetan-English Dictionary (Calcutta, 1902), 1245, as a medicinal plant that clears away scars.
