'''Sex''' is an activity involving prolonged [[genitals|genital]] contact, such as when the [[penis]] enters part of another person's body, most commonly the [[vagina]], for the purposes of pleasure and sometimes [[sexual reproduction|reproduction]]. Sex can be part of [[homosexuality|homosexual]] ([[gay]]) as well as heterosexual (straight) relationships, and is sometimes discussed as an 'act of [[love]]'. Often, however, sex occurs just so the participants can experience the sensation of pleasure that accompanies the activity, including orgasm, and they may well take steps to avoid a later [[pregnancy]] by using [[contraceptive]]s. Some of these methods, such as [[condom]] use, also reduce the risk of transmitting [[virus]]es that rely on sex to spread. Contraceptives, family planning and responsible attitudes to sex are three reasons that help explain why, while it is the main way of introducing [[sperm]] into a [[woman]]'s body so that a [[man]]'s [[gene]]tic material has the opportunity to fuse with an [[egg (human)|egg]] to form an [[embryology|embryo]], very often acts of sex do not eventually lead to the [[childbirth|birth]] of a [[child]].
