Если кто-то сожительствует со своей йевамой (он приобретает ее) —будь то невольно [думая, что она другая женщина], умышленно, [бессмысленно, а не ради мицвы], принужденно или сообразительно. Даже если он невольный и она умышленная; он умышленный, а она невольная; он, сдержанный и она, без ограничений; она, сдержанная, а он, без ограничений. [Не только (она приобрела), когда она намеревается мицва; но даже там, где оба не намерены мицвы, как, например, когда он намеревается сделать другую женщину, а она намерена совершить бессмысленный поступок, он приобретает ее, и в ней написано (Второзаконие 25: 5): «Явом ее пойдет на нее»— в любом случае.] Является ли он махаре [Если он не завершает свой половой акт, а просто вставляет только одну корону (касание короны без входа называется нешиками, «поцелуями») или завершает акт, он приобретает ее. [И он наследует (своего мертвого брата), и он должен дать ей выгоду, если он хочет отослать ее.] И не было сделано никакого различия между одним типом общения и другим [будь то нормальное или ненормальное (анальное) общение). (Левит 18:22): «Лживость» женщины, Писание, в которой говорится о «лживости» для женщины.]

English Explanation of Mishnah Yevamot
One who has intercourse with his yevamah, whether in error or with presumption, whether under compulsion or of his own free will, even if he acted in error and she in presumption, or he in presumption and she in error, or he under compulsion and she not under compulsion, or she under compulsion and he not under compulsion, whether he only began to have intercourse or he completed having intercourse, he has acquired her as a wife. The laws do not make a distinction between different types of intercourse. Whether in error or with presumption: In error means that he did not know that she was his yevamah. With presumption means that he did not intend to fulfill the mitzvah of yibbum, but rather just to have intercourse with her for the sake of pleasure. Whether under compulsion or of his own free will: Under compulsion means that someone forced him to have relations with the yevamah. Of his own free will means that he intended to fulfill the mitzvah. Even if he acted in error and she in presumption: He did not know that she was the yevamah, but she knew that he was the yavam but she did not intend to fulfill the mitzvah. Or he in presumption and she in error: He did not intend to fulfill the mitzah and she did not know who he was. Or he under compulsion and she not under compulsion: He was forced and she intended to fulfill the mitzvah. Or she under compulsion and he not under compulsion: She was forced but he was not. The same is true if both were forced, or both were presumptuous. The intercourse always counts. Whether he only began to have intercourse or he completed having intercourse: It does not matter if they complete having intercourse (assumedly referring to ejaculation). The laws do not make a distinction between different types of intercourse. According to the talmud, this means that even “non-natural” intercourse (anal sex) counts as intercourse for the sake of yibbum. In all of these cases, the mere act of intercourse means that he has acquired her as a wife.

אפילו הוא שוגג והיא מזידה – needless to say where she intended [to fulfill] the Mitzvah but rather even where both of them don’t have the intention [of fulfilling] the Mitzvah such as the case where he intends for another woman, and she had the intention for the sake of unchastity, he has acquired her [as his wife], as it states in Scripture (Deuteronomy 25:5): “ Her husband’s brother shall unite with her: [he shall take her as his wife and perform the levir’s duty],” anyway.

Bartenura on Mishnah Yevamot
לא חלק בין ביאה לביאה – whether a coition in its proper manner or a coition not in its proper manner, as it is written (Leviticus 20:13): “[If a man lies with a male] as one lies with a woman,” the Biblical verse tells us that there are two ways of sexual gratification.
