re: #487 ggt

if sex isn’t technically sexual intercourse, then why do the other “forms” need a qualifier?

oral sex
anal sex
internet sex
etc.

Errr… it can be qualified. “Vaginal intercourse” works fine, for instance. And “sexual intercourse” of course already is a qualifier. And the other forms do not “need” a qualifier. If you assume that the people you are adressing only think of sexual intercourse as sex, then maybe. But then again, that is not the primary meaning of “sex”. That really is just a narrowed down meaning created by people who want to try to get away with some forms of sex without calling it such.
