in case you're serious - rawdogging in today's slang means doing something without the usual assistance. Eg. rawdogging work by not drinking coffee before it, rawdogging mental illness without taking meds, rawdogging the internet without an adblock
yes it does come from the sex
yep, its new, additonal meaning is roughly equivalent to 'no safeguards' 'training wheels off' 'straight into the deep end' 'balls to the wall' 'EXTREME' ... yeah, doing something in a very 'hardcore' way that is much more likely to result in tragedy or pain or destruction if you don't know exactly what you're doing, because the otherwise normal or helpful safety/protection mechanisms aren't present.
And is still used for the sex. Though in that context it's usually stated as "going in raw" or "hitting it raw"
