(NSFW) What the hell is " plain vanilla sexual penetration"?

Asked by Dutchess_III (46830points) March 1st, 2019

From this NPR Article

In yet another report on sexual abuses within the church, a jury convicted Australian Cardinal George Pell, 77, of sexually abusing two 13-year-old choirboys decades ago.

One of his lawyers, Robert Richter, recently offered an apology after saying in court that Pell’s crimes were “no more than a plain vanilla sexual penetration case.” He apologized by describing the remark as a “terrible choice of phrase.”

What do you think he meant? I’m not even sure, but it angers me off.
