horizontal mambo
Intimate physical activity
Horizontal mambo is humorous slang for sexual intercourse.
The phrase plays on the image of two bodies moving together rhythmically while lying down—dancing horizontally rather than vertically: They disappeared upstairs to do the horizontal mambo.
The term treats sex with lighthearted euphemism rather than clinical or vulgar directness.
