I had to wait on one of my ex's friends tonight. And, by that, I mean one of his drug connections. It was weird and oddly humiliating. Also, the guy tipped worth shit and that made it all the more terrible. I don't know why

The way I've heard it explained to me, the act of penetration between a penis and a woman's vagina is the only religiously accepted mode of sexual intercourse (provided the two are married, of course) and therefore the only "normal" way of having sex. It's all about the potential for procreation.
Here, in NC, as recently as five years ago I think, there was still a law on the books that said the "Missionary position" was the only legal sexual act in the state, which of course takes everything just too far. Of course, it was utterly enforceable.
As an out lesbian in a wonderfully fulfilling relationship, of course I don't listen to all that idiocy. I agree with you; as long as the two people are having fun...
I understand the "morality" of it, coming from a fairly strict religious background. Still, it amazes me that so many of my friends really accept that sex is only sex when it involves insertion of certain parts of anatomy into others. That just seems so archaic.
Also, what is this obsession straight people have with the actual act of intercourse? And, by that, I mean the insertion of the penis into the vagina. So long as two people have fun, what difference does it make? I'm being flippant but I'm also really curious as to why the act of insertion makes "sex" "legitimate."
I know, it's so irritating. I've had a few friends who will give blow jobs all the damn time, be rolling around naked in bed with a boy, but they still insist on calling themselves virgins. And I suppose the term virgin isn't even valid either, cos who really cares? but it's all so puritanical!
I REALLY hate that. My best friend continually says that lesbian sex isn't real sex because she wants to call herself 'a virgin until marriage' but she's done everything except penile insertion.
Oh man, I could have gone my whole life without typing those words.
Ha! I know, I know. One of the reasons I hated going to church so much as a teenager lay in the simple fact that all of the "religious" kids I knew followed that "but his penis hasn't actually been in my vagina" mentality. The hypocrisy of that was just about all I could take, not to mention the stupidity.
I always wonder that as well. I get asked THE Question by gay men a lot too. "What do two girls DO in bed?" It's like, duh, anything and everything and there is no way that what we're doing can't be sex because....seriously.
I think the next time I get asked that question I'm going to hit someone, seriously. I just got asked that question a couple of days ago by one of my straight friends and I've really given up on answering it because you can't. It's like their brains are just too closed to fully comprehend the obviousness of the answer.
