PORN DICKTIONARY: THE ABC’S OF PORN TERMINOLOGY
All dad jokes aside, this is your essential guide to knowing the ins & outs of all slang, terms, phrases, positions, jargon, acronyms, etc. in sexual activity (as a whole) and pornography. Past and present.
⭐️Continuously updated.
*please note: I will do my best to describe any…racial, ethnic, religious terminology as respectfully as I can. Fact of the matter is, there is a lot of racism, and even homophobic, within the industry. SEX+ does NOT condone or tolerate that behavior and mindset. But there are things that people have never heard of and may be curious as to what it means.

ABROSEXUAL
Abrosexual, or ABRO for short, describes an individual whose sexuality is fluid or changeable.
Abrosexual, or ABRO for short, describes an individual whose sexuality is fluid or changeable.
FOR EXAMPLE: An abrosexual can identify as asexual one day, then the next as lesbian, then another day be pansexual. They can fluctuate between all or some sexualities. The timing also varies. One year they’re with one sex. A few years later another. It doesn’t matter.
AC/DC
Yes, it’s a band. But in the lovely world of SEX, it’s a term used for a person of bisexual orientation. In electrical terms, it means, “alternating current,” and “direct current.” For the sexual orientation, it implies that someone who is attracted to both men and women. It is also used to describe someone who is willing to take both the active and passive sexual roles.

ANAL FINGERING
Yeah, there’s another kind of fingering! Anal Fingering is a sexual act that involves a finger(s) (not a fist) going into a rectum that is performed on themselves or is done by their sexual partner(s). It’s fun as its own thing and it can also help prepare for actual anal penetration.
ATM
Although hitting the ATM would make sense if you’re getting a pricey escort, but in this case…nope, my friends. BIG NOPE. This catchy lil abbreviation in the porn world stands for, “Ass To Mouth.” Heads up, if you get queasy or offended easily, then stop reading right now. Ass To Mouth is the sexual act when someone was just having anal sex and they perform oral sex on the male or TS woman that was just penetrating their anus. [video for the visual learners]
AUTOEROTIC ASPHYXIATION
::sighs:: Okay. This one is a bit of a tough one to fully put into one small definition as there’s many layers to this particular kink, but it is essentially the sexual act of intentionally cutting off oxygen to the brain for sexual pleasure.
PLEASE, FOR THE LOVE OF WHATEVER FUCKING DEITY YOU WORSHIP, BE CAREFUL. MANY PEOPLE GET INJURED BUT MANY ACCIDENTS END IN DEATH.
AKA: Scarfing
BBW
BBW is an abbreviation for, “Big Beautiful Women.” It is typically used in the context of a sexual attraction towards women over a certain weight that are bigger than the, “average,” woman.
AKA: Chubby Chaser (more crass and insulting. Don’t be that piece of shit and say this). [videos]
BUGGERY
Medieval Latin slang for anal sex (sometimes also used to describe oral sex) with a human and an animal.
AKA: Sodomy, bestiality.
CANDAULISM
A paraphilia sexual practice, or can be a fantasy, in which the man exposes his female partner (in person, public, video, and/or photos), to other people (typically their close friends, but also to strangers) for their voyeurism kink. It is both consensual and non consensual (done without their consent or knowledge).
If it is not with the partner’s consent or knowledge, it is unethical and ILLEGAL.
It is also used to describe an appreciation of a spouse (typically the husband) watching their partner have sex with someone else or with multiple partners at once.
AKA: Exhibitionism
DP
DP is an abbreviation for, “Double Penetration.” It is a sexual act when a woman has two males, TS woman, or a woman with a strap-on dildo partnered with any of the aforementioned, performing either vaginally & anally, double vaginal, or double anal.
This act can also be done on a TS woman, gay men, bisexuals, anally. [video - female performer with two men]
DVDA
DVDA is an abbreviation that stands for, “Double Vaginal Double Anal.” HEADS UP: Again…if you’re easily offended or horrified, please don’t continue. In what seems to be an unlikely possibility that four dicks can be in a woman at once in the vagina and ass hole…think again!! It most certainly can be done but not by every woman. You basically have to be a fucking Cirque du Soleil performer and have a body made of rubber to pull this insanity out of your magic hat.
I don’t feel like looking for a video because I FEEL IT when I’m watching it. But if you wanna brave it, I suggest checking out adult film star, Veronica Avluv.
FUN FACT: South Park creators, Matt Stone and Trey Parker had a band called DVDA.
FEMDOM
Femdom is an abbreviation for, “Female Dominance/Domination.” Femdom is a fetish erotic practice that belongs to the BDSM subculture. The Femdom is a woman who takes the dominant role in BDSM activities. The female can be of any sexual orientation but does not require a certain gender of her submissive partner(s).
AKA: Dominatrix, Domme.
FLUFFER:
It’s not a myth and not completely a thing of the past, even with pills for erectile dysfunction, you can still lose an erection, for a number of reasons. Anyway. A Fluffer is a job of a professional on a pornographic set that arouses the actors to help them prepare to perform as well as helping them remain erect, if they are not in frame performing, typically at a gangbang/orgy.
FULL NELSON:
It’s not just the catch wrestling move (also known as, “Nelson Hold”), it’s also a sex position. The sex position resembles the wrestling move. For some experts, it is a unique sex position, and say it is a great position for deeper penetration.
The receiver will be lying on their back with their knees bent and feet flat on the bed or floor while the penetrator is on the bottom of the receiver, also on their back.
The receiver’s knees will be bent and pulled back toward the chest & shoulders. The penetrating partner will wrap their arms under and around the receiver’s thighs. The penetrating partner can also place their hands behind the receiver’s neck, like the original wrestling position, if it’s more comfortable for either.
PLEASE NOTE: This is an incredibly dangerous, difficult, and risky position and should honestly only be done by very athletic partners with excellent communication skills. It also helps if you have martial arts skills and experience, as this maneuver can only be accomplished safely. There also has to be 100% trust, mainly given by the receiver as their more at risk of injury, including spinal injury, and death, if the penetrator uses excessive force.
This should also only be done in short intervals as it is tiring and uncomfortable, even for those who are well-practiced. [video]
