Dirty Sanchez is commonly mistaken to be an act where the fecal matter is purposefully smeared onto a partner's upper lip. The term 'dirty sanchez' originated in the porn industry, particularly films involving ass to mouth action. It describes the (originally unintentional, i.e. blooper) act of leaving a fecal matter "moustache" on a partner's face by taking the penis out of the anus and putting it in the mouth without wiping it off first. The result is that as the penis is thrust between the lips, fecal matter is scraped off and comes to rest on the upper lip in a moustache configuration.

[edit] Etymology

Gustavo Arellano in his ¡Ask a Mexican! column contends the origin of the term by the fact that thick moustache is a stereotype of a Mexican in the United States.[1] Tate states that the term was coined during the Mexican-American War when American soldiers would often wipe fecal matter under the nose of captured Mexican soldiers as a dehumanizing tactic.[2]

The term for the sex act entered British gay cant Polari in the 1960s.[3]

[edit] Veracity

Sex-advice columnist Dan Savage says the act is completely fictional.[4] Brian Bouldrey in Dirty Words: A Literary Encyclopedia of Sex says the act is an urban legend.[5]

In 2006 there was widespread media reporting of a celebrity sex tape involving Dustin Diamond which concluded with the act.[6][7] David Hans Schmidt, who was behind the marketing of Diamond's tape, said on the Howard Stern Show in October 2006 that Diamond did perform the act.[8] Stern watched the tape and confirmed that the act was performed.[8]

[edit] Legal issues

The US Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has ruled that the term is actionably indecent. WKRK-FM in Detroit, Michigan has twice been fined for using the term on air.[9][10] However, Rosenblat notes that the act was discussed and the term used frequently by Howard Stern.[11]
