Not that good, but there's plenty of it....
By
Blanche Poubelle
Miss Poubelle confesses her self nonplussed by one of the latest develo pments in straight porn-- a
genre known as bukkake. Bukkake is a fairly recent import from Japan, and all bukkake videos have
essentially the same format-- a young woman, typically on her knees, receives load after load of sperm on her face.
In one recently offered video, 75 men jack off into the mouth of a Japanese girl. After each load, she spits
the cum into a glass, and at the end of the video she drinks the its contents.
What is remarkable about these videos is that little else seems to happen. Occasionally, the
woman will suck one of the men, and in some she masturbates at the end. But there's no fucking in these
videos, and the real focus is the repeated ejaculations from a bunch of faceless men.
Miss Poubelle understands that the Japanese word
bukkake means something like 'douse,
submerge in liquid', and one helpful person on the internet points out that
bukkake udon is udon noodles covered in soup. In these videos, the Japanese women end up covered in a very special sort of soup indeed.
As one porn reviewer has noted, it's hard to see what 'straight' men find particularly erotic
about these videos, since 90% of the film is guys stroking their cocks. On the other hand, the videographers
don't seem to have a gay audience in mind, since the men and their cocks are unremarkable. We don't get to
see very much of the men's faces or bodies, and in typical straight porn fashion, the men therein seem to
be treated as mere appendages to their dicks.
If there is a hook to a more familiar theme in straight porn, it is the so-called 'facial shot', in
which someone comes onto another's face. There are web-sites especially devoted to facials, and a bukkake
video is essentially the marriage of the facial shot and the gang bang.
Although she would not be surprised to learn of their existence, Miss Poubelle could not locate
any gay bukkake videos. The closest thing seems to be a somewhat minor genre of gay porn oriented
around the idea of 'cum pigs', but these videos also seems to feature a lot of standard sucking and fucking.
And they don't approach the bukkake videos in the sheer number of wads shot.
Would bukkake have much appeal to a gay audience? It might if it spent less time on sheer
numbers and more on good-looking men. Five hot gay men would be more of a turn-on than 75 indifferent
extras. So long as the focus is quantity and not quality, Miss Poubelle won't be rushing out for bukkake
anytime soon.
