Wording “maximum penetration” is unclear

What is that supposed to mean? Whatever it does mean, it seems subjective and/or not in an encyclopedic tone Theanswertolifetheuniverseandeverything (talk) 23:44, 26 September 2024 (UTC)

@Theanswertolifetheuniverseandeverything: There are wikilinks for penetration within the article. Are you not finding them helpful to address your questions? Misplaced Pages doesn't shy away from content because it relates to intimate sexual contact, so not sure what your basis is for claiming that the tone is not encyclopedic. Fabrickator (talk) 09:06, 29 December 2024 (UTC)
The issue isn’t with what penetration is. It’s about whether the phrase maximum penetration is clear. To me, the most obvious interpretation is deepest penetration. But this is not immediately clear and this seems like a strange way to express this. It also seems to imply that deep penetration is the canonical measure of “how much” (and how good, owing to the vagueness of the term) penetration (there) is. I would instead write something more explicitly about depth, if this is what was intended. Anselm Schüler (talk) 18:29, 4 January 2025 (UTC)
