So I can get basically every other sexual reference in the show except for this one in "The Rye" it really confuses me. Elaine says her musician friend "doesn't like to do -everything-".
It really confuses me when Jerry adds "Why not? You're there." I honestly have no idea what it's referring to.
Well, it's not that he doesn't like to go below Elaine's "equator". It's that he doesn't like to go below her "equator" with the part of his body that is above his "arctic circle".
ELAINE: I'm sorry to just show up unexpectedly like this. I know you've got your big showcase coming up later and I know how important it is, I know how hard you work for this night, but I just had to tell you that I never told Jerry hot and heavy. I didn't think we were hot and heavy. I mean - I mean, who's hot and who's heavy?
JOHN: Whoa. Hold on, Elaine I.....I'm kinda disappointed.

JOHN: I've been thinking about what we do and I'm thinking..of...adding a new number to my, you know, repertoire.
So you see, he was keen to go below the equator, dispite the usual male 'lack of confidence', but once he realised that it gets VERY HOT when in the tropics, he found that you get out of breath very quickly.
Nuts to you people and your euphemistic sexual references! =)
The reason I asked is -because- I'm so inept at decrypting these things.
Would someone please not be afraid to use real terms here.. "oral sex" see? It's not too bad to say.. now you try it!
And I still don't understand how Jerry's "why not? you're there" comment fits into it-- wouldn't -have- to go there to do something?
The only thing that really made me think it was oral sex to begin with was the bad sax playing at the end of the episode. Everything else seems to vague that it's hard to tell what's being talked about.
