Top (sex)
In human sexuality, top, bottom, and versatile are roles during sexual activity, especially between two (or more) males. A ''top'' is usually a person who penetrates, a ''bottom'' is usually one who receives penetration, and someone who is ''versatile'' engages in either or both roles. These terms may be elements of self-identity that indicate an individual's usual preference and habits, but might also describe broader sexual identities and social roles. The terms ''top'' and ''bottom'' do not refer to the literal physical position during sex. For men who have sex with men and do not engage in anal sex, the term "side" has been proposed and has seen commercial use. Side men do not engage in anal sex but rather enjoy outercourse.

''Top'' is also used as a verb meaning "to penetra ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
