KevCo Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 A large amount of people here would relate somehow to "sex" to describe a wide range of physical and emotional topics other than intercourse. I would like to better understand what people mean by some of these acts. I would like to know how people would differentiate cuddling from making out. Would making out be a more aggressive act that combines cuddling and kissing? Link to post Share on other sites
Lia Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 For me, cuddling is JUST cuddling. No kissing etc. Making out is kissing, and grabby hands in areas where hands usually don't go while in a public setting. Link to post Share on other sites
herlo Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 Cuddling is just holding eachother, maybe a few kisses here and there but making out is lots of kissing and maybe some hands in areas involved Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 I have no idea what cuddling or making out is. Both kinda make me want to puke. Link to post Share on other sites
Jorinda Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 For me, Cuddling is holding one another. Just sit/lay together. Totally non-sexual. Its like a longer version of hugging :) Making out on the other hand, from my perspective is just extreme kissing. Nasty. Link to post Share on other sites
Squirrel Combat Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 I think I could enjoy a little of both. Link to post Share on other sites
CupofCoffee Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 For me, making out is...kissing for long periods of time (sometimes with tongue) and have hands moving (on the other person's body). Cuddling is just sitting together and being close. :) (No kissing or anything like that). Link to post Share on other sites
Kuromi Akumura Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 what would you guys call the difference between passionate kissing and making out? i been told passionate kissing doesn't have any sexual intentions/touching and no french kissing O.o Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 what would you guys call the difference between passionate kissing and making out? i been told passionate kissing doesn't have any sexual intentions/touching and no french kissing O.o A passionate kiss for me can be short, but intense. Doesn't need to include tongue or be long. Making out is passionate kissing for extended periods of time. Doesn't need to include hands roaming into "private areas". And cuddling is .. just cuddling, laying together/holding each other. Link to post Share on other sites
TheLycanthrope Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 Well I don't really want either, but if I had to choose I would prefer a cuddle over a make-out. A make-out establishes a connection between the two people that has the potential to get very awkward while a cuddle can be played off and not cause (as much) awkwardness.Making out is DEFINETLY the more aggressive of the two. Usually involves tongue, being in one another's grasp, some saliva, almost sucking faces etc. Just describing it makes me feel. . . weird. Seeing people do it is even weirder ew no!!!

TrAse Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 For me, Cuddling is holding one another. Just sit/lay together. Totally non-sexual. Its like a longer version of hugging :) Exactly this. Cuddling is hugging, spooning. You touch with the other person, but just to hold. And it doesn't lead to anything sexual. That's the key point for me: minimum touching, maximum safety. ^_^ Even if you don't kiss the other person (gross!), you know when it's making out because there is a lot of touching and you realize that at some point you will have to stop.

Hellcat67 Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 Are both sensual activities? So you could in theory look at someone and want to make out (no sex) and still be ace? (This stems from a conversation I had earlier about defining sensual acts) Link to post Share on other sites

Steph Ace Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 I know some people describe kissing as sex, I don't.Topless cuddling I don't define as sex (even when I'm holding my partners breasts/ armpit as the big spoon, they make for easy grabbing holds :P) Grinding/ manual masturbation/ beyond I do define as sex. Once you involve lower genitals I would consider it as such. Link to post Share on other sites
allrightalready Posted May 9, 2015 Share Posted May 9, 2015 for me cuddling involves adjacent touching whether seated or lying together. it can include skin to skin contact but it qualifies as sex if genitals or breasts are being touched. also i don't even hug people i don't feel safe with. making out is a heavy kissing session and can include petting but too far into that is sex and for me at least only with someone i already am close to and who i trust Link to post Share on other sites
