While gokkun can refer to a person drinking the semen of one or more men, the act typically involves multiple ejaculators. For example, there are pornographic films in which a person drinks the semen of as many as 200 people. Pornography commonly shows a woman performing gokkun, the activity can be performed by people of any gender.
Gokkun in Pornography
Gokkun is so common in Japanese porn that the term has even come to refer to a genre of porn. A search of Pornhub for the term reveals hundreds of results.
Kate Sloan, sex journalist and author of 101 Kinky Things Even You Can Do has some advice for those who may be turned on by portrayals of gokkun of pornography but not sure if they actually want to engage in it themselves:
“Sometimes you might see an activity in porn and think, 'Ooh, that’s hot!' while knowing, at the same time, that it’s not something you actually want to try in real life. That’s a very normal and common experience to have while watching porn; not all fantasies are destined to become reality, for various reasons. If you want to explore a gokkun fantasy without actually doing gokkun, dirty talk is a good middle ground – you and your partner can make up a little story together, about all the filthy things you could theoretically do, and the two of you can enjoy that fantasy together without needing to worry about the physical and emotional risks involved in actually enacting that fantasy.”
Gokkun and Safety
Because gokkun involves the ingestion of sexual fluids, it does carry some risk. Some sexually transmitted infections can be transmitted this way.
