The only time I've heard that word used is in reference to morbidly obese couples who find sex difficult and therefore just rub up against eachother instead. It was probably size-ist of me not to realize that smaller people might do that as well, and call it the same thing.

And don't forget getting off! There are few better ways to come than geting blown...

Now I can't shake the vision of "frottage cheese curds" from my head.

Never mind the young, can the past and future 30-something-year-olds that have been/will be my girlfriend get this memo?

Or maybe teen I.Q.'s are on an upswing.

I'll say it again, only a serious dumbass gets pregnant when they are a teen.

@3: You're welcome.

@4: You mean... feta?

Luckily, logic and sex are about as compatible as nitro and glycerine.

And thus the orifice-based-sex of Red Blooded Americans with its subsequent, fear, guilt, disease and unwanted babies will be preserved.

@8 good question. but usually abstinence includes oral sex, etc. so, first, std's still might be increasing even if pregnancy is down. and oral sex might be replacing it.

the fear of pregnancy may finally be kicking in enough, mixed with relaxed mores regarding oral sex, to allow for increased sexuality but decreased intercourse.

or maybe the human fertility rate is finally dropping because of all the plastic, and all the medications, and what not.

And maybe many older, less stupid people are not having children because the economy is down and they can't afford it...

I had heard somewhere that teen pregnancy was going up, but I gues not. I don't know where that puts my theory, but I would still say that it is expensive to have children these days, which dissuades a lot of people.

I am SO GLAD I'm not a teenager.

Yeah, I'm finding it hard to imagine adolescent and teenage boys showing much interest in cunnilingus, or any kind of reciprocity.

Personally, I'd rather have teens not getting preggers ...

I think the type of teenage boyfriend who isn't willing to attempt to get the girl off through other means is unlikely to make her orgasm through intercourse anyway, unless she's one of those special (aka lucky) girls who come really quickly and easily. I don't think teens experimenting more with oral sex will have any bearing on the teen girl orgasm rate, though that's something we're unlikely to get solid figures on any time soon.

Slightly more than half of American teenagers ages 15 to 19 have engaged in oral sex, with females and males reporting similar levels of experience, according to the most comprehensive national survey of sexual behaviors ever released by the federal government.

Ah priceless!

Several leaders of organizations that study or work with youth expressed surprise at the level of girls' participation. "You assume that females are more likely to give, males more likely to receive," said Jennifer Manlove, who directs fertility research for the organization Child Trends. "We were surprised that the percentages were similar."

Unreal.

And I don't think it was just hipsters being uberironic. I think it was teh dumb.

I particularly enjoyed Dan's attempt to make sexual acts linear and formulaic, as though handjobs would ever override the instinctual and reflexive physiological drive to fuck to make babies. Too funny. Abortions are down and fertility rates are UP because we're at war. Last time fertility rates were this high was during Nam. It's a sociobiological imperative to replace the dead ones.

Thanks for the laughs though.
