Sex" is not limited to intercourse; not even limited, in fact, to genital activities. In reality, "sex" describes a huge range of activities.

Answer 3

Sex refers to the male and female duality of biology and reproduction, a process in biological DNA that dates back 3.5 - 4.6 billion years.Unlike organisms that only have the ability to reproduce asexually, sexed male and female pairs have the ability to produce offspring through meiosis and fertilisation. The two sexes attract one another and communicate their readiness to procreate through differences in their biology.
