Can Outercourse Lead To Intercourse?
Some people claim that one of the drawbacks of outercourse is that it can lead to intercourse. It’s true that some sexual enjoyment may lead to people wanting more. However, the idea that one activity automatically leads to another is highly problematic. The truth is, even if outercourse leads you to wanting intercourse, you can choose whether or not you want to have intercourse.
