Is mutual masturbation considered sex?

Question - (14 March 2010) 3 Answers - (Newest, 15 March 2010)
A female United States age 30-35, *LH writes:

Just curious about two things. Is mutual masturbation considered sex at all? That is the most I have done and I'm not sure if I count it or not. Also, is there an age at which it's considered weird to still be a virgin? I just turned 21 and I feel like a freak that mutual masturbation is the most I have done. It was with the only real boyfriend I have ever had. I am wlling and have a lot of intereste in sex, I just never found anyone who had genuine interest in both me and sex. Most of my close friends are still virgins too, but they're not as interested in it as I am.

Well, I've heard of some people who wish to remain virgins until marriage (often for religious reasons), yet have done pretty about every sexual act out there *except* penetration. So technically, they remain virgins.

The only thing you have to make sure is that you do what YOU like to do, without any pressure. It doesn't matter what others think, only what you think and what you feel.

It's a subject lots of people will have all sorts of opinions about. Bottom line: you have to be comfortable with it, no one else.

veronika agony auntMutual masturbation is considered sexual, but it's not sexual intercourse so technically it isn't sex. But it's still definitely sexual in nature, and is considered to be a part of foreplay usually.

I've known people older than 21 that are virgins, some by choice. I personally don't think it's weird to be a virgin at any age.

adamantine agony auntNo it's not considered sex, but it is a sexual act. Do not feel like a freak, there are many people your age who are the same. This generation is highly sexualised, but don't give in to any pressure that you may feel. Do what feels right to you.
