A generational difference over defining sex

I was talking with one of my models and made fun of Bill Clinton's idea that a blow job isn't really sex. It turns out she agreed. For her, sex is coitus only.

My arguments to her were:

1) If a blow job isn't sex, then if I force a woman to blow me, it's not rape.

2) If a blow job or anal sex aren't sex, then how come you can get "sexually-transmitted diseases" with them?

3) If oral sex and anal sex aren't sex, then how come they are called "oral sex" and "anal sex"?

She argued:

1) If mere penetration of the vagina (as in finger fucking) is sex, then she has sex when she has a pelvic exam or inserts a tampon.

2) If all these non-coital things are sex, too, then a girl can't have any fun and still think of herself as virginal.

Personally, I think narrowing "sex" down to coitus alone simply in order to allow a range of fun activities which don't make babies does violence to the language and is totally the wrong approach. I think most psychologists would want to widen the definition of sex to include kissing and caressing as sexual behaviors, not narrow it down to just a penis in a vagina.

After all, if sex is just a penis in a vagina, then gays don't have sex at all!
