We are asking the CD community to please help us settle this argument.

When you use the word, "intercourse" do you mean a penis penetrating a vagina or do you mean any form of sex?

Do you use the word intercourse instead of oral sex (felatio)?

Do you use the word intercourse instead of anal sex (sodomy)?

Do you use the word intercourse instead of a hand job?

Do you use the word intercourse instead of masturbation?

I think the dictionaries have it about right. It can apply to the other acts... but it especially applies to coitus.

Lol, I'm all for vaginal action every day of the week.

Side: Penis / Vagina action.

Traditionally, sexual intercourse has always referred to penis vagina action.

"Sexual Intercourse" means specifically coitus, or vaginal penetration

"Oral intercourse" means specifically oral penetration

and

"Anal intercourse" means specifically anal penetration

"Intercourse" in general has a broad meaning, more akin to "penetration" than simply "genital contact," IMO (you can't really have hand penetration sex).

However, I personally would more readily refer to "sexual intercourse" than any other form when using the term "intercourse" alone.

"Sexual Intercourse" means specifically coitus, or vaginal penetration

Not based off of this definition.

any physical contact between two individuals involving stimulation of the genital organs of at least one.*

So this proves that definitions are not a sound judge of human activity, only humans are. If humans see their actions as sex, then it is sex.

I'm more inclined to take a medical dictionary's word relating to anatomical matters than a general purpose use dictionary. It is a higher authority.

Sexual Intercourse

The act in which the external male reproductive organ—penis—enters the external/accessible female reproductive tract—vagina

From the same link as yours.

Legal Dictionaries and Medical Dictionaries are the proper sources to consult when it comes to disputing word definitions. The layman's language gets bastardized far to quickly and far too often to be of any actual use in understanding others.

Side: Penis / Vagina action.

When I think of sexual intercourse I think of a penis entering a vagina. However I still would classify all other types as sex, except masturbation.

You didn't say it had to be sex. Just as all rectangles are not squares but all squares are rectangles.

It's quite funny I just did the same thing right now. This debate is definitely better formed for the issue though so congrats on that.

Oh I figured that out a bit too late. I'm just too lazy to edit it.

Side: Penis / Vagina action.

physical sexual contact between individuals that involves the genitalia of at least one person

I think this settles my opinion on the other debate too. One penis and any other organ counts, one vagina and any other organ counts.

We try to go for "regular intercourse" but then sometimes, you forget to buy condoms...
