According to Oxford,
sex is "sexual activity, including specifically sexual intercourse.",
and pornography is "printed or visual material containing the explicit description or display of sexual organs or activity, intended to stimulate erotic rather than aesthetic or emotional feelings".
If you are erotically stimulated by even the sight of sexual organs or sexual activity, that is a problem you need to deal with, but please do not project your perspective onto others. Many other people are able to look at such things and understand the message being conveyed. Nuance between words is not something we can just hand-wave away when it doesn't suit our argument. Sex and pornography are categorically different things.
It's shameful and sexually repressive to teach people that any form of sexual activity is pornographic. Or that children should wait until they are out of the house, away from parental supervision, to learn even the most basic things about sexuality. It's incredible to me sometimes to think about how much things have shifted back and forth in the last 100 years. In the 80's, you'd often find PG-rated movies containing nudity or sexual references. What happened, why have we slid back?
You would've had a hard time in my high school Sex Ed class, which I personally thought was still too censored and Puritan-influenced.

The example I originally provided, that you and everyone else responded to contains the explicit display of both sexual organs and fellatio. It is indisputable, I gave detailed explanation how to see it for yourself in the book in question.

I would direct you toward my previous two comments and reiterate that your inability to understand the difference does not mean there is not a difference.
