"Also, and more importantly, I believe that a woman takes on a man's karma when they have intercourse."
Sounds like pure 24 karat bullshit, to me, derived from sexual repression, and a desire to escape the mundane existence of a dull nervous system. No offense.:-) Before Awakening, people will do and say anything in the quest for Liberation, and fail completely at ALL of it. After Awakening, despite any attempts to climb back into the aforementioned cage, it will be found to be utterly impossible - Instead, success becomes inevitable, in any domain, as that is the practical definition of Awakening, Enlightenment and Liberation. So this discussion of "spiritual" experiences from those Terrified To Wake Up, is pretty much worthless.

The tidbits are as if floating in the air, swimming in the puddles of melting snow, etc. I don't remember that there was an explanation but it made sense to me given that the feminine is the receptive in the act of intimate congress. However your idea is intriguing also. And your insight is practical.

Where have you encountered that suggestion before? (And why shouldn't a man take on a woman's karma when a couple make love?) Of course, the idea of a man and woman taking on each other's karmas can be used to make a case for fidelity in sexual relationships and to argue against promiscuity.
