Doc, any thoughts?
Perhaps I didn't make clear the intent of this thread.
My intention was to simply allow people to express their various notions of sodomy. The clearest format for doing this is to express those notions in terms of necessary or sufficient conditions.
My intention was not to take as given that there is one true notion of Sodomy and then have everybody try to formulate necessary or sufficient conditions that express it. That is, when I ask for such conditions, there are no incorrect answers (provided the set of conditions given meet some minimal logical coherence). There are only answers that express different notions of sodomy.
So, if one person says parking in the brown zone is a necessary condition, while another says that tongue-poo is sufficient, that's ok.
It's not like there is a true necessary condition for sodomy that I'm trying to have people guess or formulate. If your notion of sodomy has no necessary conditions, that's cool. Eagle's does -- that's fine too. The only reason a struggle should arise is if your notion of sodomy does have some necessary condition that is vague in your mind and you struggle with expressing it.
