Whats the difference between grinding (in bed or seated), dry humping, and a lap dance?

Question

Is there even a difference between the three or is it the same thing?

Not all lap dances involve grinding/dry-humping - hell, some places don't even allow any physical contact! But, yes, some lap dances do involve grinding.

But otherwise, grinding and dry-humping are much the same thing, except dry-humping is usually more horizontal, while grinding can be done sitting or even standing (such as on the dance floor). Either one involves the rubbing of genital areas together while clothed.

Grinding and dry humping are basically the same as it is simulated sex but with clothes on (grinding you might not have clothes on). A lap dance is totally different and incorporates a more seductive vibe and fluid movements to it, as it is a dance. VERY few girls can do this well without looking dumb, and it is more likely better to be left to professionals (ex. strippers) lol

They're different. Grinding is a sexual dance, dry humping is just humping with your clothes on and a lap dance is a dance where you take your clothes off, lol.

Lap dancing is more of a teasing thing, i'm guessing it stems from sensual dances like Bachata and Salsa (of which i do i might add) Grinding and Dry humping and kinda one in the same (basically sex with clothes on (ofc no penetration)
