I am still confused. You seem to have admitted to not doing something, but I am still not sure what. And I have heard of a cocktail called “sex on the beach”. In my younger days at beaches, I am sure I contemplated and quickly ruled out the actuality of engaging in intercourse, directly on the beach. The grittiness of the sand makes that a no-go IMO.
Imagine. You have sand all over, in all crevices and especially on any sticky parts, external or internal that have been contacted by sand granules. You brush at it. You might try shimmying about to get it to shake off. You could try a blow dryer with the heat off, to blow it off. Moist towlets maybe. Or full on soaking bath plus whatever else women have up their sleeve (so to speak) for such occasions.
Better to be in the tent, protected from sand. But if the tent is on the sand, then you ARE having sex on the beach.
But, I digressed. I wanted to say that nowhere have I seen an adequate explanation as to why “throwing sand” should come to have meant having sex on the beach.
But I have taken 30 secs or so to think about it and I now have a hypothesis. Consider someone who was a proponent of people having sex on the beach. Someone who was such a strong proponent that he ventured to secretly observe people who actually were having sex on the beach.
Could it be that in certain sexual positions, the natural carnal motions that accompany those positions, actually thrust forward grains of sand that had accumulated on the lovers’ bodies? And if so, could that projecting forth of granules be seen as “throwing sand”?
Ancient Alien researchers say “Yes”. And I do also. Tho I invite any competing hypotheses.
