Cumshot

As cumshot [ kʌmˌʃɒt ] (also Money Shot ) referred to in the porn industry either pictures or scenes that the ejaculation hold of the man; often the semen ends up on the face. Cumshots have been found in early pornographic films since the late 1940s (stag films) and have become iconographic for hardcore porn .

commitment

In porn, scenes are often ended with a cumshot in order to make an ejaculation , i.e. a male orgasm , visible to the viewer and to prove authenticity. That is why a controlled and clearly visible ejaculation is often required for the payment of the male performer. The performer often ejaculates on the face (often called the facial ) or in the partner's open mouth; often on the vulva , chest , buttocks and anus , stomach or feet .

There are different perspectives on cultural classification. The classification as a sexist symbol of male dominance over women in heterosexual porn is common. To what extent sperm is to be regarded as a “dirty” liquid in this context (compare saliromania ) is controversial. In the case of male actors, self-control and the visible conclusion of a performance are in the foreground of the staging in heterosexual hardcore. In contrast, in gay hardcore porn, the visualization of male ecstasy is given a bigger role.

In addition to hardcore films , cumshots can also be found in some art house films and video art scenes in which the stimulation of the male sexual organ, including ejaculation, is explicitly shown. Examples are films such as Der Pornograph (2001) or 9 Songs (2004), which are approved by the FSK for young people aged 16 and over, and Shortbus (2006, FSK 16) should also be mentioned.

Extensions

  • Bukkake (from Japanese bukkakeru , "splashing water") is the visible ejaculation of several people on one person.
  • Creampie is the term used for letting the sperm run out of a body opening in order to make ejaculation visible in this body opening.
  • Facial (from English) or facial insemination describes the visible ejaculation on a person's face.

About the term Moneyshot

In the parlance of the American film industry, the expression “ money shot ” originally referred to the scene whose production was most expensive. In general, a film's money shot is a particularly spectacular sequence that is believed to have had a significant impact on its commercial success. In an action movie, for example, this could be a fast-paced chase. According to Steven Ziplow, author of The Film Maker's Guide to Pornography , “The most important element in a film is the cumshot, or, as some say, the moneyshot; if necessary, everything else should be sacrificed for his sake.
