'Definition' is fairly arbitrary. The best defense of your point of view is the Aristotelean argument that anything that does not satisfy the final cause (goal) of sex, which is reproduction, cannot be classified as sex.
Not necessarily, as sex itself is a dead term (Roman) which is why it’s used for biology. The conflation of sex as social slang for academic purposes shows how subverted “social sciences” are as they can’t even acknowledge the reason we use dead languages without their entire structure of definitions collapsing.
I vaguely remember in my biology classes that distinction sometimes being made among non-human animals. Sexual stimulation that wasn't procreative was termed something like "sexual play", which also would have included acts performed by animals not yet of reproductive age.
I can imagine technical reasons why biologists would want to distinguish between the two.
It's not like he actually believes being a two-pump chump is the only way to have sex. He's just chasing the hot take make number go up effect that all social media addicts chase, and you can't get away from, even here.

Definition isn't arbitrary to anyone who isn't a postmodernist.
OK, what is the objective definition of 'table'?
"A piece of furniture of comparable intelligence to AntonioOfVenice."
There are less sad ways of admitting that you were full of it, Nazi.
