What is Sex?

[lovecraft68]

Getting ready for a date, whether or not they are attractive

I pulled this one line out because it speaks volumes.

You are changing the meaning of sex in your conversation. Equivocation.

At the start "sex" means intercourse.


But later you redefine sex to mean everything surrounding attraction and romance.


Here is an example:
Humans need light to live.
Feathers are light.
Therefore humans need feathers to live.

Feels like a rhetorical trick.

Romance = connection, affection, attention, validation
Sex = physical act

They can overlap and do. But they aren't interchangeable.

You are hiding under a homonym

I’ll take unnecessary trolling for $1000

If you want to see the pattern, you'll see the pattern. If you don't want to see the pattern, you won't see the pattern.

I think for purposes of erotica, the term "sex" should be understood broadly. It's whatever turns you on, or turns the reader on.

For a foot fetishist, "sex" could be covering your partner's toes in chocolate and licking it off. For a voyeur, it could be looking at a naked woman through a window. For an exhibitionist, it could be running naked down a public street. If these activities give sexual pleasure, then they can be considered "sex."
