Urethral intercourse (pronounced: yoo-ree-thrul in-ter-course) is a sexual practice where an object or penis is inserted into the urethra. This practice is also known as urethral sounding or urethral play.

Etymology

The term "urethral intercourse" is derived from the word "urethra", which comes from the Greek word "ourethra", meaning "a tube for conveying fluid out of the body", and "intercourse", which comes from the Latin word "intercursus", meaning "a running between".
