Frottage: Giving Frotting Meaning

Let us start at the baseline: what does frotting mean? A less commonly known term, it has more visibility within the gay community. This makes sense due to the nature of the act itself. Frotting is the act of placing two penises side by side along their length in varying positions, and masturbating them as if they were one large penis.

Below, we elaborate further on the different frottage techniques, who enjoys frotting, and some interesting background to the practice.

A Brief History of Frotting

Interestingly, frottage has a long history dating back decades. It might even be more engrained into gay culture and its evolution than one might expect. Infact, in the 1950s and 60s certain segments of the gay population exclusively preferred frotting to anal sex. Not only that, but they would look down upon fellow homosexual men for engaging in anal sex – calling them brownie queen. 

The feeling came from the idea that anal sex was “not quite right,” not even for gay men who “had no other option.” They instead turned to frotting which seemed to fill that sexual desire in a more “acceptable” way. This only gives more weight to the fact that frotting is a very wide spread and sexy way for two cocks to get off at the same time.

Bill Weintraub, a gay activist who claims to have coined the term “frot” in the 1990s, does not condone the use of the latter. Frottage is any general rubbing in French, while Frot specifically denotes genital to genital contact.

Weintraub believes that genital to genital contact is the actual definition of sex. If you really think about it, he has a good point.

Above we see some of the ways to enjoy frotting, now let’s see who enjoys it. Outside of the obvious men enjoying themselves and their hard cocks, who else is there? Often times MMF couples will engage in the act. Women that are turned on by the bisexual nature of the experience and multiple penises will find enjoyment. The video below is a great example of MMF frotting.

For those that enjoy a good cumshot, a mutual orgasm – if properly timed – can be a beautiful sight to see.

In the MMF situation, the men might feel a sense of power from being able to share a woman, feeling that they are able to provide a unique experience. It is difficult to place these acts on a spectrum of sexuality, as so many factors can change what specific things are appealing. Of course, what you label it is the least of everyone’s worries.
