Checking google, all sites said that anal sex and oral sex don't count as outercourse, so I changed the definition. AxelBoldt 01:57 Dec 28, 2002 (UTC)


Armpit, seriously?!?!? -- Anon

This is disgusting. Should this even be on here? Lizzy

I added a warning disclaimer to the external link. The link has good info, but I was startled by the graphics. Jeeves 22:26, 4 Nov 2004 (UTC)


I re-added oral sex with a cautionary note about it because according to Merriam-Webster's Medical Dictionary, it can be considered a form of outercourse (also another dictionary (I can't remember which) has a similar definition). I got the stud(y/ies) information I talked about in the article, from WebMd (http://www.webmd.com) (note that some of the articles contradict themselves and sometimes even have incorrect information (example, one said virgins can't get BV, while it's true that one is a lot less likely to have it if one is a virgin, since it can be caused by one's own bacteria overgrowing, virgins can get it.), but most of it seems correct.)(Side note, I don't know how anyone would consider anal sex outercourse, considering its risks/what it involves, it has always been intercourse and always will be.)

I think maybe this statement: 'No bodily fluids are intended to be exchanged' should be edited out because with some of the outercourse pratices (not even including oral sex, if it can be included), it is very easy to come in contact with bodily fluids.

I'm fine with if someone reverts my edit as long as one posts here with a good reason to revert. Also feel free to phrase what I said better (sorry my phrasing isn't that great for the moment). (This addition wasn't to cause a arguement or anything like that, just to re-added some that *might* have not needed to be cut out.)--Knowi7 22:09, 19 July 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Oral Sex and Pregnancy

Why is this a useful thing?

The risk of pregnancy with oral sex is only through contact between sperm-bearing fluids such as semen or Cowper's fluid and female sex organs, though the sex organs aren't usually in close contact with oral sex.

[edit] outercourse?

Shouldn't this be called "extracourse"? 24ip | lolol 23:23, 26 November 2005 (UTC)

I removed the parenthetical statement after "there is a higher risk" because it was incoherent.

[edit] HIV

What are we basing this warning on? I've seen recent articles detailing studies done on at risk groups practicing unprotected oral sex that showed a 0 percent infection rate. I think the definition implies that this is at risk behavior for HIV infection and there is nothing I'm aware of that would support this. (I used to work at AID Atlanta and have tried to keep up with the literature)

[edit] Cleveland steamers

I don't intend to be yucky, but are Cleveland steamers classed as intercourse (because it involves feces) or outercourse (because there is no penetration involved)? Scott Gall 07:20, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
