Re:
https://www.dictionary.com/e/farther-vs-further/
"The widely accepted rule is to use
farther when being literal and discussing a physical distance,
as in 'He went farther down the road.'
Further is used when discussing a more symbolic distance
or to discuss a degree or extent, as in 'I wanted to discuss it further, but we didn’t have time.' "

Still confusing when describing sexual encounters ...
"Second base" is
further or
farther, depending on:
1) base location relative to starting point.
2) type of activity at that second base.

Young daughter to father:
"When do I let my boyfriend get to second base?
Is it
further or
farther from our starting point?
