Lazzat Un Nisa (Delights of a woman) is an erotic Indian story.[1][2][3] The original manuscript dates back to the Qutb Shahi period. In the fifteenth century, the court of Bidar patronized such erotic works as the Bhog bal, Thadkirat al-Shahawat (List of aphrodisiacs) and Srngaramanjari (erotic Bouquets). Lizzat Un Nisa is one of the few surviving erotics works from the period.[4]

The main subject of the story is a man named Harichand who under orders of a king embarks on a journey to collect exotic gifts and beautiful women for the pleasures of the king. The manuscript provides advise on various sexual techniques. It has a section on how to arouse a woman and observations based on sizes of a woman's vagina.[1]
