Lay With

The first eight books of the Old Testament (and only those, with the exception of First Kings) infrequently state the phrase:

...she lay

Exact references pertaining to such are:

Genesis 19:33 (referring to the first-born of Lot [sexually] laying with her drunken father Lot)
Genesis 19:35 (referring to the younger daughter of Lot [sexually] laying with her drunken father Lot)
Numbers 22:27 (referring to Balaam's donkey [non-sexually] laying down under Balaam)
Ruth 3:14 (referring to Ruth [semi-sexually?] laying at the feet of Boaz at night)
I Kings 3:19 (referring to a woman [non-sexually lethally laying on top of her son at night)

As far as a woman [sexually] laying anyone, Proverbs 7:26 mentions an adulteress who has lethally laid many a victim low.

Conversely, the Old-Testament references of Genesis 30:16, Genesis 34:2, Deuteronomy 22:25 and 29, plus Second Samuel 11:4, 12:24, and 13:14 speak of men [sexually] laying with women. . . .and the Old-Testament references of Genesis 26:10, Numbers 5:19 and 20, Judges 21:11, Jeremiah 3:2, and Ezekiel 23:8 speak of women who have [sexually] lain with men.

Scripture Text (in at least the English translations presently and commonly available) is not explicit HOW those men [sexually] "lay with" those women, nor how those women were "lain with," as to what positioning they were when they did it, nor in what state of dress or undress they were in.

For instance, it does not elaborate on whether the laying with or being lain with occurred within the women's bedrooms, beds themselves, or whatever private-part openings of their bodies men's extended private parts were which could have or did enter those women in whatever aroused or non-aroused condition. That is left to the imagination.
