Bonus question - If your answer is "NO" - and a blowjob includes male orgasm/ejaculation... if it's NOT SEX... what do you call it?

  • No, I don't think blow jobs are sex. Sex is reproduction. Yes, the male person is ejaculating (releasing sperm), but not where the sperm can actually start the reproduction process. But I think it's unknown, really. I don't believe it's sex, but yet other people have opinions, which is fine.

    • you just described sexual intercourse.

    • So sex is only for reproduction. So any sexual act that is not intercourse is not sex? Anal sex therefore would not be sex? Wait I am getting confused...

  • So if I could convince you that if you give me a BJ that is not really sex, would that work?

    I hate to admit it but BJ's fall into being sexual? Regardless of what other people say. I would never convince my wife that getting a BJ from my neighbor didn't count.

  • it's a difficult question to answer, because I would consider a girl who has only given a blowjob to still be a virgin, but depending on the situation I would say i had sex with someone if we only did oral. It just depends on the context I think

  • If you go by the biological meaning of sex thats penetration with a penis into a vagina but if you go by the legal meaning of sex then anything that involves a penis vagina or butthole is sex

  • Yes of course blow jobs are sex, oral sex. And not to be Debbie downer but if it wasn’t sex, you wouldn’t be able to get a SEXually transmitted disease from it.

    • good point

  • It's oral sex but that's if you're being technical. I just consider it giving a guy a blowjob I don't think about it as sex

  • For me, actual SEX-SEX is either homosexual or regular penetrative sex. Blowjobs are a sex ACT, while I think it makes you sexually active I don't agree that it is the same as railing someone.

  • It isn't to me. Sex is different. It's a sexual act for sure, but not THE "sex".

  • Its sex- in my experience the only people that say otherwise are people trying to skirt the "rules" of virginity.

  • There is a reason it is called oral SEX

  • Yeah, I'd classify it as sex.

  • It is not a penetration so it is not a sex.
    Maybe you can define it as a turn on equipment. Like masturbation

    • It involves male genital. So its oral sex.

  • Yeah, it’s sex

  • No and the ejaculation is your paycheck for your blowjob

  • NO! of coarse not! Blow jobs are the other sex that god can't see.

    BULLSHIT! It's sex.

  • No I don't consider it sex. I think it is a great way to say good night, or an even better way leading to sex.

  • I don't understand how anyone could not see oral sex as sex.

  • Yes it's sex.

  • I guess so but I find it a sickmaking idea. No way I'd do anything like that :-(

    • What is sickmsking about this?

    • @SarahsSummer touching that with my mouth? No way... I would never find my girlfriend dirty but that is totally off limits for me. My mouth is for eating, drinking and kissing, that's how far it goes!

    • I assume your are heterosexual, Given that you said you have a girlfriend, this question doesn’t really have anything to do with YOUR mouth.

  • Black dogs are dogs.
    Oral sex is sex. (Unless you're Bill Clinton. "I did not have sexual relations with that woman, Ms. Lewinsky!")

  • Sex involves penetration of me

    • *To me* ... Jesus lol

    • BAAAAAA HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

  • "Sex" has multiple meanings. It can mean sexuality, or it can mean intercourse. A blow job/cunnilingus and even a hand job/fingering are sexuality.. orgasm isn't a condition. It's a purpose., along with arousal.

  • if done right

    • LOL ok then.

  • I don’t get with men women only.

    • that wasn't the question. Is a blowjob sex or is it not?

  • It's sex.

  • I say no. Sex is intercourses. It’s a sexual act.
