I discussion that I find really useful. The following is from Cory Silverbegs sexuality blog on about.com
"The belief that sex - "real sex" -- always includes intercourse, that intercourse is in fact the goal of all sex, is one of our most counterproductive sexual beliefs. It serves all sorts of repressive and exclusionary functions, but from a learning and sexual growth perspective, it doesn't do any individual a lick of good. Intercourse is a terrible teacher. Almost every other kind of sexual interaction offers better and more varied opportunities to learn how to communicate verbally and non-verbally with a partner; how to read your partner's body and touch them in a way that communicates your intentions, and how to open up to feeling a partner's touch. Intercourse is great, but it's no way to learn how to have sex, and you waited a long time to have it and now think that once you've had it your done, you're missing out.
I agree with Cory. We need to challenge the notion that intercourse is the be all and end all. Go here to read more.
