- SUMMARY
The Bible does not criticize or condemn any form of
sex between men (including oral sex, deep kissing,
fondling and mutual masturbation) except for male-male
penetration (anal intercourse).
As in other societies of Biblical times, the prohibition is
aimed at the man being penetrated. This Biblical
prohibition seems to be mainly based on the cultural
view that the penetrated man is acting like a woman
(instead of like a man) in sexual intercourse. The male
penetrator is condemned for helping the penetrated man
to act like a woman. As the prohibition is culturally
based, it does not apply today.
