Once again, when JP II speaks of “the inseperable connection of the two significances of the conjugal act” (cf. HV 12), he is speaking of the **unitive and procreative ** significances. An act of sexual intercourse may not be deprived of either significance. This teaching does not refer to the licitness or morality of different methods of foreplay that intend to enable the spouses to complete the act of marital intercourse.Something from other sources mentioned by Mirror Mirror.
"One cannot therefore speak of acting arbitrarily. On the contrary the married couple “must act in conformity with God’s creative intention” (HV 10). Beginning with this principle the encyclical bases its reasoning on the “intimate structure of the conjugal act” and on “the inseperable connection of the two significances of the conjugal act” (cf. HV 12), as was already stated. The relative principle of conjugal morality is, therefore, fidelity to the divine plan manifested in the “intimate structure of the conjugal act” and in the “inseperable connection of the two significances of the conjugal act.”
