A term for a sex position where the male is the artist and the female is the etch-a-sketch. Coined etch-a-sketch because of the similar actions performed when trying to draw something on an etch-a-sketch. Done by performing the following steps:
1) turn the knobs to draw a picture (twist the nipples to draw a "happy face" on the female)
2) shake to erase the sketch (the "happy face" is removed once the male repeatedly penetrates the female by moving her up and down quickly)
3) repeat.
My favorite childhood toy was an etch-a-sketch. I'm a kid at heart, which is why I'm playful during sex. I'll always etch-a-sketch on a first date. It makes me feel young again.
