Lampshading

A sexual interaction where one person (ideally a male) is wearing a kilt or skirt, standing with their legs at least shoulder width apart whilst their partner (male or female) is knelt between their legs with their head inside the kilt, stroking the penis of the aforementioned male partner, alternatively fingering the vagina of a female partner, as if they were attempting to pull the draw chain of a light to turn it on. The goal, of course, is to arouse (turn on) the partner.
