Feedback:
Sexuality encompasses more than a physical act. It includes love, warmth, caring, and sharing between individuals and identification with a sexual role. Sexuality may or may not include behavior involving the genital organs. Any physical interaction between two people is not a definition of sexuality. Behavior taken to attract a member of the opposite sex is not a definition of sexuality.
