A new word for me: Bukakke

Ran into this via Boing-Boing: Bukakke

Cleanup in aisle 11!

I have seen this word over and over and have never known its meaning. Of course, if you search Google, you get lots of hits (if you'll pardon the pun) but if you search the Google dictionary, nothing comes up (again, so to speak).

I don't quite know how to put this on my Christmas list. It seems so less refined to ask for bukakke instead of my normal request for a pearl necklace. But then, apparently I'm of a certain age.

The polite reader probably wouldn't ask what you were doing that you came across this word. Luckily, I don't really aspire to polite.

argh! bukkake!

Despite what Wikipedia conjectures, bukkake primarily describes extreme Japanese porn; no special semen addendum. In fact its more a hardcore s/m thing.

Somehow in the net-i-fied welt the term became associated with hetero semen orgy porn(I figure some afficianado first discovered the term whilst gratifying himself(I highly doubt this hypothetical masturbater was female) to semen-orgy porn and assumed the subsequent denotation as fact.

Now bukkake's been constrained to this misapprehension

The hetero porno world delights in misunderstanding other cultures' sexual terminologies and creates their wildly repulsive own: "cream pie", anyone? Though, I do suppose a "cream pie" might occur during homosexual anal sex...argh!

on another note entirely one of my favorite noise albums is Matthew Bower's Extreme Bukkake

double argh!

I still prefer Japanese tentacle porn

I bow to your superior knowledge. But several sources agree the term in Japanese is closely related to the concept of splashing liquids (and there's a noodle soup by that name), so the porn meaning is plausible. Here's one seemingly authentic source: http://www.asianbukkakeshowers.com/

I know zero about this, just had heard the term and finally saw a discussion of it.

oh to be so knowledgable(thanks for the link)

shrug---I simply noticed what I discerned as connotations diverging from my initial discovery of the world of bukakke. Bukakke was only referenced in connection with extreme Japanese sexplay(mainly in manga). I'd never seen the semen connection made until re-encountering the term on the net. I imagine the truth of the matter submits itself somewhere in the middle of our semiotic circle jerk. :)
