In teenspeak, refers to actual copulation or other intercourse with end-purpose results as opposed to other sex play; to go all the way / to get to home plate , usually refers to actual penetration of the vagina as the ultimate goal, which is two steps beyond first base and one step beyond second base. See copulation for synonyms. ' -How far did you get with her? Did you reach first base or did you touchhome base? - I went all the way.' When this expression first originated, supposedly during WWII, a man who had gone too far had done so with a woman who went all the way or one who went to the limit.
Quote: Robin (Cary Elwes) and Marian (Amy Yasbeck) in Robin Hood. Men in Tights (1993): -- Robin: ' Darling, I'm ready for that kiss now.' -- Marian: ' But first, I must warn you. It could only be a kiss for I am a virgin and could never go all the way.' -- Robin: ' But...' -- Marian: ' Unless, of course, I were married. Or if a man pledged his endless love to me. Or if I knew that he desperately cared for me. Or if he were really cute.'
