sodomize

������ does sodomize mean?

To sodomize is to engage in sodomy with someone. Historically, sodomy has been interpreted as any of a variety of sexual acts that are not intended for reproduction, including anal sex, oral sex, or any nonheterosexual sex act. It is most commonly applied to anal sex between men.Sodomize is often used in an offensive way meant to condemn such sexual activity as deviant. However, when sodomize is used to mean “to commit anal rape (of someone),” it usually does not have an anti-gay connotation.The history of the word, including the legal prohibition of activities labeled sodomy, is inseparable from a long history of institutionalized prejudice and hatred toward  gay people. For this reason, the term is inappropriate or offensive in many contexts.
