Fans discuss the rules and techniques of Jerry's signature sexual move from the episode, including requirements like a headboard, height differential, and the proper clockwise swirl technique.
We know the following about Jerry's "move":
(1) You need a headboard on the bed; (2) There shouldn't be more than one inch differential in the couple's heights; (3) Make sure you close with the swirl (no premature swirl, as George found out); (4) Jerry prefers the clockwise swirl (as opposed to the counter clockwise swirl); (5) The copycat used the pinch at the end instead of the swirl.
I think you mean 'a one FOOT differential'.
And don't forget: No knuckles!

"I can't believe you're hoarding sex moves! I'm out there rubbing two sticks together, and you're walking around with a Zippo!" - George, to Jerry, in 'The Fusilli Jerry
isn't there a swirl in there somewhere? d ************************************************************* I can't afford to go to Europe so, since the earth rotates every 24 hours, why couldn't I shoot straight up and hover in some kind of contraption and let Europe come to me? *************************************************************

That's exactly what an airplane does, if you change your point of reference. Unfortunately you don't get a discount for seeing things that way.

I believe he said "inch" -- I was taking notes as I transferred the episode onto a permanent tape. But I will go back and replay it to make sure.
Definitely no knuckles in Jerry's move --the knuckles were part of George's move and they weren't too well received (so to speak).
IMHO.. its a foot...
other opinions,,, delores,,, Just a New Yorker,,, He's self employed,,,etc etc etc..

You are absolutely right!
I just replayed that part of the tape. Jerry said no more than one foot differential. (I originally wrote down inch.)

I thought it was "the twist" not "the pinch"? Pinching sounds painful.
And yes, I believe it's a variation of the "venus butterfly" but don't ask me why headboards, etc are required cause I haven't the foggiest.
Would someone mind filling me in on what the venus butterfly is all about?

I always assumed that it was left to our imagination -- which is what I assumed about Jerry's move too.
The Venus Butterfly was never explained on L.A. Law, but I read a description of it in Playboy years ago when L.A. Law was still huge. I won't post it here as it is quite graphic, but if anyone would like to hear the version that I read email me and I'll send it to you.
The "Venus Butterfly" is some made-up sexual move that was on "L.A. Law"--people wrote in to the show and asked what it was, since it seemed to have such an effect on women on the show. From what I remember, the writers said that they just made up the name and the whole idea themselves. Erik Saran

I really hope there can be no more than a one "foot" differential because I'm 6'6" and if an inch is correct I'll never get this darn move to work.
