Seks: Verskil tussen weergawes

Die term '''seks''' (afgelei van die [[Latyn|Latynse]] ''sexus'' "geslag") verwys na die praktiese uitoefening van seksualiteit. In die algemene taalgebruik sluit die term [[Menslike seksuele gedrag|seksuele handelings]] tussen twee of meer persone in, veral '''seksuele omgang''' en ander vergelykbare seksuele praktyke – in bepaalde gevalle ook [[masturbasie]]. Dit is ook onder verskeie ander name bekend, soos '''geslagsgemeenskap''' of '''koïtus'''.

 

 

In die engste sin beteken seks die [[penetrasie]] van die vroulike [[vagina]] met die manlike [[penis]]. Dit is ook bekend as "vaginale seks".<ref name="Weiten, 2008">{{cite book|title=Psychology Applied to Modern Life: Adjustment in the 21st Century|isbn = 978-0495553397|publisher=Cengage Learning|year=2008|pages=422–423|accessdate=5 Januarie 2012 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=Y6QRJb40C84C&pg=PA422&lpg=PA422|author1=Wayne Weiten |author2=Margaret A.
