I just realized that the term "penetrative sex" strips women who participate in it off of agency and focuses solely on male perspective of things. If such sex was framed from a woman's perspective, it'd be called something like "enfolding sex" or "encasing sex", as if the woman attaches her vagina, which is an autonomous organ that doesn't need to be filled in order to be complete, onto something unnecessary. Kinda like grabbing a rock with your hand or something. We: 1) fully acknowledge our active participation in the process of grabbing a rock; 2) fully realize that our palms are complete, autonomous organs without a rock in them – and that's why we don't say that a rock enters, or penetrates, our hands, we say that we actively grab it, or encase it.
