sodomizing

Engaging in sodomy

Sodomizing is engaging in sodomy—anal intercourse, or sometimes oral sex or bestiality, depending on jurisdiction.

The term derives from the biblical city of Sodom.

Legal and religious contexts treat sodomy as a specific act; casual usage often implies any non-procreative sex act: He was convicted of sodomizing a minor.

The word carries strong connotations of violation or abuse.
