This is a woman claiming she is both non-binary and male. This should be very interesting.

This is a woman who got pregnant through PIV like most women ever...

Back in my day we just used to call this "having sex"!

Is it just me or does the term "PIV" literally sound like you now have to specify "Tab A Slot B" to explain how this works? I think we are doomed.

But over the long course of human history, "having sex" has actually involved a lot more acts than just hetero PIV coitus.

Coz a there have always been lesbians and gay men who've been having sex, none of which by definition can be PIV.

Similarly, a lot of the sex that hetero people have been having through human history has not necessarily involved the P inside the V.

Today, when hetero anal sex is (IMO unfortunately) becoming more and more normalized, it seems especially important to use specific language.

Yes the normalization (of kink/trans/etc) is unfortunate. It's also what brought us unnecessarily specific language like "cis".

And I don't mean to dismiss lesbian & gay sex to be clear—still counts as "sex" but somehow we still knew what we meant.
