Donkey punch is a slang term for a fictitious sexual practice, supposedly performed during doggy style anal sex. The purported practice involves the penetrating partner punching the receiving partner in the back of the head or neck, causing the receiving partner's anal passage to tense up, thereby increasing the pleasure of the penetrative partner.[1] In fact, there is no reflex in humans that would cause such tensing, while on the other hand striking a partner in this manner could cause severe, potentially lethal injury.[2]
Urban legend
In 2004, sex columnist Dan Savage referred to the donkey punch as "a sex act that exists only in the imaginations of adolescent boys".[3] Responding to an enquiry from Wikipedia editors, he again discussed the donkey punch urban legend in his "Savage Love" column in 2006. He wrote, "attempting a Donkey Punch can lead to ... unpleasant outcomes," including "injury, death, or incarceration;" he also pointed out that it "doesn't even work." He quoted Jeffrey Bahr, a faculty member at the Medical College of Wisconsin,[2]
To the best of my knowledge, there is no definitive reflex in the human neurophysiology that induces involuntary tightening of the anal sphincter after receiving blunt force trauma to the occiput, or back of the head. ... Trauma to any part of the head can have serious ramifications. Pain, intracranial hemorrhage, memory loss, neck injury, and possibly some related sensory deficits in the arms and legs. A strong enough blow to the back of an unsuspecting person's head could result in a vertebral fracture which, I hope most people know, could cause paralysis or even death.
Non-sexual usage
Donkey punch was also one of several slang names for trades conducted by Enron.
In the scandal over Enron's manipulation of the electricity market in California, fraudulent schemes designed by Enron traders were given "colorful names" including "Donkey Punch."[4] U.S. Senator Maria Cantwell, in a 2004 press release about the Enron hearings, identified the Donkey Punch as "a crude pornographic term", one of many "lewd acts" that Enron employees used to describe their schemes. Cantwell asked the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission to take down the e-mails that were on its website due to the content.[5]
