Bukkake (Japanese: ブッカケ) pronunciation (roughly /bɯkːakeː/ in IPA) is historically a sex practice that features a woman being ejaculated on by multiple men.[1] [2] [3] [4] The definition has expanded more recently by the explosive growth of pornographic films that include the subject being male or female, multiple subjects, and ejaculation on any part of the body, not just on the face,or ejaculation in various types of containers and then poured onto the subject(s) or ingested by the subject(s). Also, the ejaculation of one or more women on a subject has been called bukkake as well.

History

A popular theory states that bukkake originates in ancient Japan, where unfaithful women were publicly humiliated by being tied up as every man in town ejaculated over her. If a woman were to act out or disobey her husband then the men of the family, neighbors or even the whole town would ejaculate on her. This was to humiliate her and punish her for her "infraction." [5]. However, no historical records of such a practice are known, and some assert that the theory was invented by an adult website designer.[6]

The first known recorded and publicly released act of bukkake in Japanese pornography was in the movie Mascot Note (マスカットノート) starring Matsuoka Aiko, released in December 1986. The term bukkake, however, appears to date only to the late 90s, the act being previously known simply as gansha (顔射, "facial ejaculation").

Etymology

Bukkake is the noun form of the Japanese verb bukkakeru (打っかける, meaning "to splash forcefully." The compound verb can be decomposed into two verbs: butsu (ぶつ) and kakeru (掛ける). Butsu literally means to hit, but in this usage it appears to be an intensive prefix as in buttamageru (ぶったまげる, "completely astonished") or bucchigiri (ぶっちぎり, "overwhelming win"). Kakeru in this context means to shower or pour. The word bukkake is often used in Japanese to describe pouring out water (or other liquids) with sufficient momentum to cause splashing or spilling.[7] Indeed, bukkake is used in Japan to describe a type of dish where the toppings are poured on top of noodles, as in bukkake-udon and bukkake-soba.

It can be assumed that a significant factor in the development of bukkake as a pornographic form was the mandatory censorship of genitalia in Japan.[citation needed] Since the directors could not show penetration they sought other ways to depict sex acts without violating Japanese law. Semen was not required to be censored, thus creating a loophole for harder sex scenes.
