I thought that post .272 on Adult Christian Thread 88324 ought to be made more widely available for comment.

{{___ Between Husband and Wife: Is Oral Sex a Sin? }}
One thing seems pretty obvious, once you think of it.
(I did not check the 200 some odd posts to see if someone else thought of it.)
The increasing prevalence of oral sex among decent people is a result of technological and economic improvements in the availability of aids to personal cleanliness.
The general availability at trivial costs of such things as hot and cold running water, bath tubs, showers, and scented soap has made aversion to oral sex a rather old fashioned thing in the view of new-fangled people.

** Yes, it is! ** (Qualified as follows.)
I would generally call it a fault, rather than a sin. I do not accept the standard English dictionary and Bible dictionary definitions of "sin" but have a preference for the non-traditional biblical definition, particularly as found in First John and Romans 6-7.
And I would call it a technical fault, particularly if ejaculation takes place later in the proper place.
Even the young women who practiced prostitution in Franco's Spain, being often well instructed in moral theology, were sometimes known to direct, "Fini aqui".
