Let me get this straight
Dec. 4th, 2012 09:42 amYou have your characters engage in frottage, hand jobs and fellatio for months, but their relationship isn't going to be consummated until they have penetrative sex in a carefully planned night of lovin' on Valentine's Day?
Here's the thing: frottage, hand jobs and fellatio are sex. This relationship was consummated a long time ago. Romanticizing penetrative sex is so, so ... I cannot even articulate why this is not good, author. Let's just stop perpetuating the myth that the only sex that counts is one where a penis goes into another person via vagina or anus. (Though even the latter doesn't seem to count if it's male/female and that is also a problem. It counts.)
All hail the glory of inserting Tab A into Slot B or whatever, but it isn't the only "real" sex, okay.
