Common camera framing
Description: The receiving partner lies on the back with the legs raised, and the penetrating partner lies on one side at a right angle across them, so the two bodies meet at the hips in a cross. Neither partner supports any of the other's weight, which is what makes it holdable for a long stretch.
Variations: The receiving partner's legs over the partner's hips or resting on the partner's shoulder, and the crossing angle opened toward parallel to change the depth.
On camera: Legible from overhead and, unusually for a crossed position, also readable in profile because the raised legs mark the junction.
AI design considerations: Two figures whose long axes meet at roughly ninety degrees at the pelvis, one supine and one on its side. The right angle is the identifying feature and is what separates it from the criss-cross, where both partners lie back.

Motion only. The still you condition on must already carry the position, wardrobe and scene: restating them causes drift.

The English label matches this entry, but every defining text on the item describes the whole crossed-legs family: the Japanese description and the four linked articles cover any position in which two women, or a man and a woman, cross the legs and join the genitals between each other's legs, the Japanese article names matsuba-kuzushi as the best-known form, and the item's image is a file named Wiki-tribadism.png. The Cantonese article also gives T-square position as another name, so the item covers the arrangements of the catalog's t-square and scissoring entries as well as this one. It discards the right angle between the supine receiving partner with raised legs and the side-lying penetrating partner that defines this record.
- no identifier existsnone
Relation is none, so there is no mapping and therefore nothing for a loss statement to measure. The blank is deliberate rather than an omission: no live tag denotes a supine partner and a side-lying partner meeting at the hips at a right angle, and the support tags rebuild the two postures and the raised legs but not the crossing angle that names the entry.
Actions this position admits
The position fixes who is where. These are the beats that are physically possible in it, from the action catalog. Contact through the characteristic beat is maintained.
Camera moves that suit the geometry: Overhead descend, Arc (partial), Locked off, Push in.
