I believe the following sexual acts are completely natural and normal for anyone who wants to engage in them. None of them should be seen as harmful or degrading, and none should be stigmatized. This list may get a little redundant, but I really wanted to make my point. It should be noted that by “sex” I mean sexual activities of any kind; not just intercourse.
- Sex for money, whether it’s a person’s only option for making a living, or a way for someone with another job to make extra money on the weekends.
- Sex in front of a camera/video camera, whether you plan to sell the results, put them on the internet, send them to your friends, just watch them on your own, or do anything else you like with them.
- Sex while alone.
- Sex with someone of your own gender, of the opposite gender, or of no gender/both genders/anywhere between the genders.
- Sex with multiple people at the same time (of any combination of genders).
- Sex with someone to whom you are related.
- Sex purely for pleasure.
- Sex with someone you just met, be it the start of a relationship or the last time you ever see each other.
- Sex with a different person (or combination of people) each day, or with different people throughout a day.
- Sex while in a sexual relationship (marital or otherwise) with one or more people – either with your relationship partner(s), or with one or more people outside the relationship, or with one or more people in your relationship and one or more people outside it, etc.
- Sex within the context of open relationships, polyfidelitous relationships, “friends with benefits” relationships, gay relationships, straight relationships, monogamous relationships, marital or non-marital relationships, or any other kind of relationship.
- Sex outside any relationship at all.
- Sex with any kind of toys or other objects, or with the aid of pornographic material (either alone or with someone else).
- Safe, sane and consensual BDSM.
- Vanilla sex.
- Sexual kinks of any kind (ie voyeurism, exhibitionism, etc).
- Any type of sex (oral, anal, vaginal, manual, etc).
- Any part of the swinging lifestyle.
- Sex for people of all genders, sexual orientations, races, classes, religions, body types/sizes, and ages (as long as there are no children involved – what defines a child depends on the person, but anyone under the age of twelve is a child).
- Choosing to have no sex at all, whether you’re a male or a female.
- Sex in which one or more people involved do not consent to everything being done, keeping in mind that there is no consent unless everyone says yes, even if no one says no (it hurts the person/people who don’t consent)
- Sex in which anyone involved is too drunk/high on drugs, or too young, or not mentally fit to consent (it hurts the person being taken advantage of, even if they claim they want to do it)
- Sex that breaks a rule of a relationship one is in – ie if someone is in a monogamous or polyfidelitous relationship and has sex with someone outside it, or if someone films the sex or tells people about it – and the other person or people in the relationship don’t know about it (it hurts the other person or people in the relationship)
- Dishonest sex – ie lying about not having an STD, not being in a relationship, one’s sexual history, one’s intentions towards their sexual partner(s), etc, (it hurts the person or people being lied to)
- Sex for the purpose of manipulating someone or using it against someone (it hurts the person or people being manipulated and having sex used against them, and it often leads to dishonest sex)
- Sex without proper protection against STDs and (if one is trying to avoid it) pregnancy
- Sex that is not done carefully and could involve health risks (ie BDSM without the proper precautions such as safe words, engaging in potentially harmful sexual activities without making sure everyone knows what they’re doing)
