Bukkake

Bukkake is a sexual act wherein several men proceed to ejaculate on a woman. Bukkake videos are quite prominent in porn films, carving a niche for fetishists to enjoy. It is believed that the attraction for bukkake stems from the overt or implied humiliation that the person being ejaculated upon experiences and the satisfaction of greatly objectifying women, sometimes to the point of degradation. However, some also point out that bukkake may not just be a heterosexual practice since it involves several men in close proximity masturbating together.

Originating in the 1980s in Japan, the genre spread to Europe and North America. Some have commented that bukkake developed because of the mandatory censorship rules that Japan has where genitals have to pixilated. Since focus is taken away from the genitals and trained more on the body and face, bukkake was an excellent way to depict sexual acts without clashing with the rules. Semen need not be censored so it can also be said that bukkake greatly exploited the loophole to give way to raunchier sex scenes. If you must thank anyone for bringing bukkake to the forefront, direct your attention to Kazuhiko Matsumoto.

Bukkake was coined as the noun form of bukkakeru, a Japanese verb that translates to “to sprinkle or dash water.” Bukkake then means “splash”, “heavy splash”, or “to dash.” While the term is definitely defines the sexual act, it can also be used in a number of contexts in Japan so it is not uncommon to see it in everyday places. For instance, bukkake also refers to a certain kind of dish that calls for hot broth to be poured over some noodles, as bukkake soba and bukkake udon. Hence, seeing “bukkake” in a sign does not automatically mean anything sexual. Please do be mindful of this should you find yourself in Japan.
