With all due respect John, you are wrong. The Catholic Church never
condoned oral sex.

The sole purpose of sex according to the Church is procreation, with birth
control during a woman's period.

I'm not sure that is totally accurate. Humanae Vitae requires that sexual
intercourse be open to life, precluding contraception, but I don't believe
it requires all sexual intercourse to be for procreation. It's about
giving one's all to a marriage, not giving everything but one's fertility.
It is my understanding, oral stimulation, as foreplay, is perfectly
acceptable in a marriage.



Are you Catholic?
