Surely it's gotta be even dirtier, otherwise people would be talking about it.

What does Sodomy mean? I think for whatever reason when I was young I used to hear it being referred to people who have sex with animals (probably from family guy or the simpsons)

As far as I understand, it is essentially anal penetration. It is often used nowadays to describe SA in which that occurs, but it used to be (and to some extent still may be) used to criminalize gay sex. Especially since many Christians consider the crime of Sodom and Gamorrah to be homosexuality.
