Donkey punch is a slang term for an apocryphal and potentially lethal sex move allegedly performed during anal sex. The move involves the penetrating partner punching the passive partner in the back of the head or neck.[1]

Overview

The term is not strictly defined or well-documented; at least one source attests to the move being "made up."[2] One source recommends the punch take place just before the penetrating partner's orgasm, producing "heavenly" constriction of the passive partner's anus "if she passes out."[2] The loss of consciousness is found in other, but not all, descriptions.[1] Another source recommends surprising the passive partner to "add ... intensity to the clench."[3]

According to Andrea Nemerson, the sex columnist for the alt weekly San Francisco Bay Guardian newspaper, "There's no such thing as a 'donkey punch.'"[4] Similarly, Dan Savage, the editor of the Seattle alt weekly The Stranger and author of the sex advice column Savage Love, has called it "a sex act that exists only in the imaginations of adolescent boys".[5]

Medical and legal risks

Dan Savage discussed the subject in his October 25, 2006 "Savage Love" newspaper column. Savage 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 Dr. Jeffrey Bahr, a faculty member at the Medical College of Wisconsin,

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 skull 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.

Savage concludes, "Attempt a Donkey Punch and it's likely that your asshole will wind up constricting spasmodically — around your cellmate's cock."[6]

Non-sexual usage

Dustin is a Donkey Puncher. Donkey punch was also one of several slang names for trades conducted by Enron.

In the scandal over Enron manipulating the electricity market in California in order to reap soaring profits, fraudulent schemes designed by Enron traders were given "colorful names" including "Donkey Punch"[7]. 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" which 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.[8]
