Porn Terms – A Blush-Inducing & Jaw-Dropping Erotic Alphabet

Note: This article has been updated. Hentai Terms will be a new article soon.

Hey there, fellow curious minds! Today, brace yourselves because we’re diving headfirst into the wild world of adult entertainment with an A to Z guide of jaw-dropping porn terms!

Now, before you start blushing or clutching your pearls (porn aficionados will be giggling at that one), let me promise you that we’re not here to judge. Instead, we’re here to take a lighthearted and creative look at the incredible lexicon that surrounds this ever-evolving industry. From peculiar fetishes to creative wording for positions, we’ll leave no stone unturned.

So, get ready to giggle, gasp, and perhaps learn a thing or two.

Porn Terms A to E


porn terms, erotic hypnosis,
Erotic Hypnosis

Analingus – Also called “rimming, rim jobs, tossing salad.” It’s where someone stimulates another person’s anus or perineum with their tongue.

And if you’re wondering why people might like this, it’s probably because there’s a truck-load of nerve endings in this area. So, it can technically count as an erogenous zone. So, you can imagine there are entire categories or collections dedicated to this porn term.

Bukkake – The work is of Japanese origin and the rough translation is “to splash with liquid”. This is close enough to the sexual act where a group of men surround a person and ejaculate all over them. 

Fun fact, it doesn’t have to be a person, it can also be food. And, well, you can use your imagination as to what happens next. As for Bukkake, you’ll always find an entire porn category for this – that’s how popular it it.

Candaulism – “A sexual practice or fantasy in which one person exposes their partner, or images of their partner, to other people for their voyeuristic pleasure.” ~ Thank you Wikipedia. You’ll sometimes see this on porn sites lumped in with things like “caught, exposed, exhibition, voyeurism” or whatnot.

Docking – This sex act involves two uncircumcised men. One fits their penis into the foreskin of the other and they use the “sleeve” (I guess you call it that?) to slide in and out, using the friction for pleasure. If you don’t believe this is a porn thing, I looked it up on PornHub just to be sure. There’s real-life porn and even exaggerated animations. You’re welcome.

Erotic Hypnosis – As you can tell from the name, it’s the use of general hypnosis with a sexual goal in mind. It can be used to enhance something the receiver already enjoys. It can make them reveal things they normally wouldn’t share or even lower inhibitions.

Other things it can do is increase awareness of touch, control pleasure, induce hands-free orgasms, enhance roleplay, transform a kink or fetish, or even simply relax into a pleasurable state of mind.

Porn Terms F to J


porn terms, VR porn, interactive porn, porm gaming
Interactive Porn

Fluffer – This one might be a little heartbreaking or fantasy-destroying. But it’s been a long-time industry myth that there were people on set that would give oral sex to actors who needed to be ready to start performing at a moment’s notice.

The idea that was, a looooooong time ago (when film was expensive) there might have been a few instances where someone needed help. But in general, every porn star or set worker has said there are no fluffers.

Gonzo – Here we have a true-blue porn term that is quite interesting. It’s a style of filmmaking that tossed out the storyline, went straight for the sex, and put the viewer right in the action. This is usually done through far more close-ups and way fewer body shots and no full-scene images.

Jamie Gillis is considered to have started the gonzo pornography genre with his On the Prowl series of films. The name is a reference to gonzo journalism, in which the reporter is part of the event taking place.

Hentai – Any sexually active adult probably comes in contact with this genre in one way or another. The Japanese translation loosely comes out to perversion or abnormality.

But be careful using this word in Japan because it has a totally different meaning than we’ve given it in the West and people will look at you like you have five heads. For us, it just means “A work of anime or manga (or any similar medium) that contains sexual or pornographic art.”

Interactive – Porn and sex toys have come a long way. And, in recent years, the world of teledildonics has exploded. And for those of you who don’t know, teledildonics are sex toys that can be controlled anywhere in the world through an app.

If you’re curious about interactive sex toys you can find some great ones here!

lovense sex toys, lovense store
Lovense app-controlled, interactive sex toys for porn, adult gaming, long-distance relationships, and more!

They can also be synced with porn clips or even adult video/computer games (the company has created a program to complement the toy’s software). So, the sex toys will vibrate with whatever you’re watching – and at various speeds or patterns. Not all clips can do this. So if you like the idea, you’ll have to find the “interactive” category and also have a sex toy that has syncing features.

JOI – This one is easy but also interesting. It’s an acronym for “jerk-off instructions”, where the performer literally teaches the viewer how to masturbate. This can be for men or women. And the purpose can be for just viewing pleasure, to literally learn, or to find ways to break out of masturbation ruts.

Porn Terms K to O


nylon fetish, fetishes, fetish porn
Nylon Fetish

Korean – Stay with me here, okay? Because believe it or not, it’s hard to find a real porn term starting with K that isn’t just slang for penis. So, I’m going to use this as a stepping stone for a larger category – ethnicity.

Now before we start judging, remember we weren’t going to do that today. Why? Because everyone has their own sexual preferences, desires, fantasies, etc. This can include people from different parts of the world. And on literally every porn site you’re going to find a breakdown of major ethnicities.

Long Tongue – Yeah, this one surprised me at first … for three seconds. Then I shook my head and realized why. For men and women long tongue is a porn term you might not see on the front page but you’ll probably find it through the search bar.

tongue sex quote, leonardo da vinci quote, sex quote

Money Shot – Put simply, it’s the scene in porn where the guy ejaculates. But, did you know, it can also mean “a very important, impressive, or memorable picture or scene.” However, I doubt the movie industry uses this a lot because the adult entertainment industry has a tight grasp on it. But I could be wrong. Let me know in the comments!

Nylon Fetish – Again, this is another stepping stone because (believe it or not) “N” is another tricky porn term to find. So, nylon fetish is where someone gets their rocks off with someone wearing, using, or them just playing with pantyhose.

But if this fetish isn’t your thing, there will be a mountain of other fetishes on any porn sites – like feet, cosplay, panties, amazon (strong women), latex, neck, doctor, armpit, etc.

Orgy – This one’s easy! It’s just a bunch of people having sex with each other. It can be paired with other themes like fetishes, ethnicity, parody, BDSM, you name it!

Porn Terms P to T


parody porn, porn terms, batman porn, movie porn
Parody Porn

Parody – This porn is where they take something from mainstream television or movies and make porn out of it. Think of an adult version of Batman or Titanic. This is where the Da Vinci Code becomes the Da Vinci Load. Or we end up with A Midsummer Night’s Cream. Though I doubt they will be orgasming in iambic pentameter.

Older versions we beyond cringe-worthy, but higher production values have made them far less face-palming. But I guess how giggly you find them is of personal preference.

Queening – This is where a woman sits on someone’s face for the purpose of oral pleasure (could be vaginal or anal). The person on the bottom can simply enjoy giving oral sex or they could also love the feeling of being smothered, helpless, dominated, etc. It can be sometimes switched with face sitting. But Queening is more about female control … being the Queen in command.

Roman Showers – If you’re squeamish about people getting sick, you might want to skip this one – just for comfort’s sake. But if you’re curious, Roman showers are when someone vomits on another person for personal gratification or humiliation.

The term probably comes from the idea of Roman vomitoriums (whether the historical fact is true or not doesn’t matter in this case).

“But, of course, my feline friend. You can have your way with the dynamic duo … just before I destory them.

BatmanXXX: A Porn Parody

Stunt Cock – Porn shoots can take quite a while (far longer than what you would see in the final edit). Or an actor might have more than one demand in a day. Either way, stunt cocks are men who have penises the same size and appearance as the main actors.

They stand in for close-ups as a workhorse position when the main actor cannot get an erection. Obviously, the name comes from the movie term “stunt man”.

Tip Vibe – We talked about interactive porn and teledildonics before? Well, these sex toys can do something else in the porn industry. Cam models can use the same sex toys (along with appropriate software) on their streaming sites.

They set up their custom menus for viewers to tip, and these tips will activate the toy in certain ways. For example, smaller tips might make the toy vibrate for a few sections, while larger tips will make it go longer. This gives the viewer literal interaction with the performer.

Porn Terms U to Z


porn terms, web cam, web came models
Yoni Massage Porn

Uncut – U is another tricky word, but there is still a category that some people like to watch – uncut penises. It could be in line with docking (like we talked about earlier) or just liking uncircumcised penises better.

Veggie Scene – It’s a slang term for a scene or entire production with only women. No men/dicks/meat present … hence the veggie part.

Webcam – Webcam models are people who perform live and often interact with their viewers in some way. This can be through talking, games, private rooms/performances, or using tip-activated sex toys. They can have filmed clips or collaborations with other well-known or upcoming models (as extras for paid members, etc.) but the focus is heavily on live streaming.

yoni massage, yoni, yoni porn
Yoni Massage

X-rated – There were no X porn terms so this is what I was stuck with LOL. The rest was stuff revolving around the word “zoo” and I know you can guess what kind of porn that is.

Yoni Massage – You’ve heard of tantric sex? Well, Yoni in Sanskrit loosely translates to “a sacred space.” It’s an intimate massage of the vagina with the focus on being more in tune with the body, working through issues, learning what turns them on, or connecting with a partner, etc.

Since the goal isn’t necessarily to have an orgasm, many people are surprised to find these messages on porn sites. Granted, some are just regular porn masquerading as something spiritual, but there are legitimate ones out there too. See? Not all porn is “bang bang boom” stuff.

Zelophile – This is a person who becomes aroused by jealousy. And while you won’t find anything on a porn site if you type this in a search bar, you will find something if you type jealousy, caught, cheating, etc.

Closing Thoughts about the World of Porn Language


All of this is just stepping into the shallow end of the porn pool. There are so many more, I could write a post just about fetish porn. But this article was just an overview of some porn terms that you might find interesting, amusing, or even educational.

As for people and their preferences, it’s not up to us to judge what people like to watch. And if something exists, it doesn’t mean you have to consume it (keeping in mind I’m talking about legal and ethically made stuff).

I hope this article made you smile, AND if you know any porn terms (things directly related to common porn searches or porn industry language) that are harder to find (like words starting with I, E, N, V, X, Y or Z) share in the comments!

No he is right, loli is the shortterm for lolicon. Describing underaged girls between 9-12 years old or so (not 100% sure though, age might vary). Im not sure if there is a term for older Schoolgirls, but I saw somewhere even terms for much younger childs and toddler.

Thats also what was explained to me by japanese people.
