There are 13 types of casual sex. Who knew?

Have you had a lot of casual sex? Have you had it ever? Even if you have to cast your mind back back back and rummage around your brain underneath monogomy,  marriage or babies, you might just unearth a memory of some casual flinging. Or maybe you're having some right now?
US sex writers Em & Lo have written a whole book on the subject of casual sex and they've top-lined some of the different types on their website….

  1. REC SEX: Any
    sex between two or more consenting adults outside of a long-term
    relationship could be referred to as rec sex. And rec sex doesn’t
    ensure that there won’t be any negative consequences (like heartbreak,
    jealousy, confusion, or STDs). But while you’re doing it, you’re not
    worried about the future: You’re in the moment. Rec sex is often
    employed as a more cheery synonym for casual sex, and is particularly
    common after one has sold a first novel, won the lottery, or received a
    refund on their tax return.

  • 2. BOOTY CALL SEX:
    Sex with a friend-with-benefits or a new lust interest that’s arranged
    via a phone call or text message made after 11pm usually because there
    are no better prospects and/or you’ve been drinking.
  • 3. APPOINTMENT SEX:
    A more formalized version of the booty call. This kind of sex
    scheduling is usually done more than 24 hours in advance, when both
    parties are sober. Email invitations tend to be favored over more
    casual text messaging messages or impromptu phone calls. This kind of
    arrangement happens more frequently among the older set—work-a-holics,
    recovering alcoholics, single parents, people for whom fart jokes have
    lost their charm, i.e., those who no longer have the patience (or the
    liver) to wait until closing time to make a booty call.
