Oral Sex

Recommended Posts

Quote


Not sex in the "classic" sex, i.e. sexual intercourse, but according to that defination, gays and lesbians don't have sex either. But wouldn't you agree there is a continuum of sexual behavior? In that sense, it most certainly IS sex... if it's not, I'd much rather exchange that at a greeting than shaking hands.


That is a good point. It seems to be "wrong" to say that lesbians don't have sex. I guess it's like saying that a certain type of jump isn't a skydive, or that doesn't make a person a skydiver. I do see penetration as sex.

Still, though, when people are asked for the number of people they've had sex with, very few include the "oral only" number. So, if most people don't include their oral sex partners in the "had sex" category, oral sex is not having sex.

Well, it's called "oral SEX" so that seems to imply that it is sex. You can't get pregnant from it, but you can still pass STDs. I wouldn't be any more likely to have oral sex with someone than I would to have intercourse with them - to me, they seem equally intimate.

sorry sweetie, that logic is faulty... it's the same things as those silly school girls who wanted to remain "virgins" so they'd only go down but not "really" put out, as if an intact hymen was the only real criteria for what makes one a "virgin." There's the letter of the law and the spirit...

Personally, when someone has asked me about how many partners I've had, if it's any of their business (which it usually isn't), I've always included anyone I've been ACTIVE with... it just seems more intellectually honest.

No, it's not sex. When someone asks you how many people you've had sex with, do you include those you've had only oral sex with? (I think this was once posted in TalkBack! :D)



I guess I'm old, but if I'm going to have sex with someone, it's not going to be only oral sex.




so butt sex doesn't count either? :)But if you're having oral sex with someone, you're not having sex! :D You can't get pregnant from oral sex!

Then why do they call it Sexual Transmitted Diseases?

Gonorrhoea

Gonorrhoea is caused by Neisseria gonorrhoeae, a bacteria that grows and multiplies quickly in moist, warm areas of the body such as the cervix, urethra, mouth, or rectum. In women, the cervix is the most common site of infection. However, the disease can also spread to the uterus (womb) and fallopian tubes, causing pelvic inflammatory disease leading to infertility. Gonorrhoea is most commonly spread during genital contact, but can also be passed from the genitals of one partner to the throat of the other during oral sex. Gonorrhoea of the rectum can occur in people who practice anal intercourse. In pregnant women, gonorrhoea can be passed from an infected woman to her newborn infant during delivery if left untreated.

You don't know what "old" is, RL.

>So is oral sex or not?

This is about as silly as the argument about whether tandem students are 'real skydivers' or not. Or whether Budweiser or O'Douls are really beer. Or whether some guy is black because only one out of eight grandparents were black.

The answer to all of which is - who cares? Call it whatever you want. If you use semantics to cheat on your SO and get away with it, defining the word more carefully is not going to fix the problem.

Where does the continuum end? Kissing? Handshake? Is making eye contact sex?

;)



i think the continuum STARTS at different places for different people, but from a physiological perspective, just touching another person on the shoulder, or even being physically near a certain other person can be a sexual event. I personally don't call hand holding sexual, and mild kissing either, but deeper kissing, petting, anything involving genitalia certainly is getting there
