>Does "SO" mean  "sexual partner", without exception?

	I don't think so ... I take SO ("Significant Other") literally;
thus Kathy can be a SO for me, but not a sexual partner (indeed, it's
kinda impossible in this case: she's getting married next month and I'm
gay)...

	Of course, when I am in a relationship with another guy, then
he can be a SO and the sexual aspect can be present ...

	The whole idea of a SO is indeed very fuzzy ... Maybe we can
"define" it here?
