frot

Frot, a term derived from the French word for "rub," refers to a sexual act involving mutual rubbing of genitalia through clothing. This practice is a form of non-penetrative sex and can be engaged in by individuals of any gender or sexual orientation. Frot is often considered a safer sexual option as it carries a lower risk of transmitting sexually transmitted infections compared to penetrative sex, although it does not eliminate the risk entirely. It can be a solitary act or performed with a partner. The act typically involves rubbing the penis against the anus, vulva, or penis of another person, or rubbing other erogenous zones through clothing. Frot can be performed in various positions and can be a component of foreplay or a complete sexual encounter. It is a consensual activity and requires the agreement of all participants. The term is sometimes used in a broader sense to describe any form of genital rubbing, even without clothing, but the core definition typically involves clothing.
