So if I get drunk (drunkards) and/or play with with my wife's asshole (sodomy) I don't get to inherit the kingdom of God? To be clear, I would not be asking for forgiveness in either case because I don't do either to excess.
When Jesus heard it, he saith unto them, They that are whole have no need of the physician, but they that are sick: I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.
Drunkard is typically defined as one who abuses alcohol.
The bunghole example, best I got is if you can fathom such a question as being negative, then you must question whether the act is negative yourself. Sexual pleasure outside nature's intended implication towards reproduction in of itself could be scientifically incorrect. Thus an error. Sin/error, whatever you wanna call it.
Being a drunkard is dif than getting drunk. Also, drunk can be a matter of perspective. 🤷🏻♀️
As far as anal sex between husband and wife…I actually wondered about the same kind of thing myself. I grew up in a home that had a very unhealthy view of sex. I went in search of answers. The Bible says a lot about sex believe it or not. The Song of Solomon is a great example. The entire thing is about sex between a husband and wife and it didn’t mean a picnic in the woods when it said “he Feeds among the lillies.” From what I understand in my searches, sex being good was a gift from God to the husband and wife. God wanted us to enjoy each other (husband and wife) so we would be close and become one. It’s SUPPOSE to be about more than just procreation. When it boiled down to it, if a husband and wife enjoy a little anal and it adds to their closeness and enjoyment of each other, it’s all good. Sodomy in the sinful sense, is where a man has anal sex with another man. As long as it’s not involving bringing other people into it then it’s fine. That’s the way I understand it anyway.

Dude. You're going to heaven. Jesus died for all our sins. Love the life God gave you. Nothing in this life happens that is not God's plan.
Mark 2:17
When Jesus heard it, he saith unto them, They that are whole have no need of the physician, but they that are sick: I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.
How does this address my original question?
Repentance is changing one's mind about sin.
