Gang bang
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A gang bang (or a gangbang) is a situation in which one individual, either a woman or a man, has sexual intercourse with multiple partners in turn. When a man has sex with several women, it is usually known as a reverse gangbang. See other definition sections for slang usage of gangbang (affiliation with gangs).
The term has often been used interchangeably with gang rape but is now increasingly applied only to consensual sexual behavior in the sexual swinging community. It exists as a specialized form of group sex and sometimes figures in sexual fantasy. It is also the subject of a genre of pornography, complete with its own sub-genres ("cream pie gang bang", "anal gang bang", "lesbian gang bang", "drunk gang bang" etc).

[edit] Gangbanging in history
There is ample evidence that the practice was known in various cultures in ancient times, though not by this name. For example, Messalina of the Roman Empire was particularly famous for enjoying gangbangs, and Clodia was accused of it.
Of Messalina, Pliny the Elder writes in his Natural History (Book 10, Chapter 83(63), 172):
| “ | Other animals become sated with venereal pleasures, man hardly knows any satiety. Messalina, the wife of Claudius Cæsar, thinking this a palm quite worthy of an empress, selected, for the purpose of deciding the question, one of the most notorious of the women who followed the profession of a hired prostitute; and the empress outdid her, after continuous intercourse, night and day, at the twenty-fifth embrace. | ” |
Nikah Ijtimah was a pre-Islamic Arabian gang bang, leading to marriage if a child was conceived.
[edit] Gangbanging today
Today, there are numerous swingers clubs around the world that cater to women and their partners in search of gangbangs. A flourishing gangbang culture exists in Italy where thousands of couples advertise in search of men to fill gangbang rosters. Gangbangs parties also flourish in the US, UK, Netherlands, France, and Germany. Most of these gangbangs are made up of amateurs, but there also has been some crossover of professionals providing services to groups of men willing to pay to participate in a gangbang. Gangbangs vary in activity, but most gangbangs include the use of condoms for vaginal penetration combined with bareback oral sex and manual genital stimulation performed by the woman for the men and the men for themselves. At the end of many gangbangs, the men ejaculate on the women's body and/or face sometimes simultaneously.
[edit] Gangbang records in the pornographic industry
Though there have been numerous gangbang movies since the 1980s, they usually involved no more than half a dozen to a dozen men. It wasn't until 1995 The World's Biggest Gangbang, starring Annabel Chong that the pornographic industry took notice and started setting gangbang records. However, it should be noted these record breaking events are un-officiated and the claims often misleading.
[edit] World's Biggest Gangbang series
The events invited unpaid amateur participants, mixed with a few paid professional performers (who could be relied upon to provide better film footage). All were screened for venereal diseases ahead of time. Usually, the men would stand in line to have sex with the actress for a brief period of time, a few minutes or less, then get back into line for the next encounter. The actress could be engaging three to five men at a time, including masturbation and oral sex, and each sex act was "counted" as a separate instance, so a "record" of several hundred usually involved less than a hundred men. All amateur participants were required to wear condoms.
The 3 movies in the World's Biggest Gangbang series were produced by John T. Bone.
- The first was World's Biggest Gangbang in January 1995. Initially aiming for 300, Annabel Chong had participated in 251 sex acts and stopped due to fatigue and pain -- not from the sex as such, but from inadvertent scratches from fingernails on her vagina and anus. Later events would ban fingering. About seventy men [1] showed up for the event, and Chong was quoted as saying that "about 66% were not able to perform." Nevertheless, the event was seen as a success, based on video sales and notoriety, as well as spawning multiple sequels. It is also a feature of the Sundance Festival hit documentary Sex: The Annabel Chong Story.
- World's Biggest Gang Bang II 1996 starred Jasmin St. Claire performing in 300 sexual acts [2], solely with condoms (unlike Chong, who didn't use condoms for oral sex). She had to take a break to ice down her genitals during shooting, and was criticized for bad temper and not appearing to be interested in the event, earning her the title Ice Queen. Luke Ford reports approximately 51 men participated.
- Houston appeared in Metro's Houston 500 (sometimes called Houston 620) [3][4], in which she allegedly had sex 620 times (reportedly 50 or so men turned up and recycled) without interruption on February 6, 1999. Even taking into account she was engaging in multiple sex acts at a given instance, many eyewitness accounts claim even the 620 figure was greatly exaggerated.
[edit] Gangbang 2000
Two separate attempts were made at the Gangbang 2000 title, trying to reach that number of sex acts by the year 2000.
- Porn star Candy Apples, who was a fluffer on the Houston event, tried to have her own record and video (to be called Gangbang 2000) on October 9, 1999, but it was broken up by the Los Angeles police. Allegedly she got to 743 [5].
- Another attempt at Gangbang 2000 came on December 28-29, 1999 by British porn star Sabrina Johnson [6]. She allegedly reached 2000 sex acts over the course of two days in Belgium with no more than a few dozen participants for the event for both days.
After 1999, the United States World's Biggest Gangbang series seemed to have fizzled out, and Europe started producing gangbang events.
[edit] Polish Eroticon conventions
- In February 10, 2002, Klaudia Figura [7], a Polish porn star, claimed 646 instances at the Eroticon 2002 pornography convention in Warsaw, Poland. The event was staged as a live competition between 3 women.
- In 2003, Marianna Rokita, another Polish porn star claimed 759 partners.
- In 2004, Klaudia Figura again won, claiming 919 instances [8], on Oct. 16th, at the Eroticon 2004 convention in Poland, staged as another 3 woman competition.
The Polish series doesn't recognize Candy Apples's or Sabrina Johnson's records, and compare themselves only to Houston's record.
[edit] Other gangbang records
The record for most women gangbanged by a single organized group of men is claimed by West Coast Gangbangs, organized by Rick Lee, who claims 400 women gangbanged by the group.
Victoria Givens [9] claimed the title of World Record Anal Gangbang on October 23, 2004 after having anal sex 101 times without lubrication. The previous claimed record holder, Brooke Ashley, had anal sex 50 times in 1998 in The World's Biggest Anal Gangbang, and claims to have contracted HIV from it.
In 1997, Jon Dough starred in a reverse gangbang in The World's Luckiest Man, where he had sex (mostly fellatio) with 101 women.
In September 2004, American porn star Ariana Jollee attempted the largest number of internal ejaculations (creampies) for the gangbang series Devils Films 50 Guy Creampie [10][11]. The gangbang, staged in Prague, Czech Republic had in fact a total of 65 participants attempting to ejaculate in both her vagina and anus, surpassing the previous attempt by Hungarian porn star Jennifer Red of 50 men in the first installment. Previous known attempt was by a Japanese amateur with 25 men ejaculating into her vagina only.
Ariana Jollee is also believed to have had the largest transsexual gangbang received by a female performer seen on footage. In 2005, Ariana gangbanged 15 Brazilian transexuals for the movie Nacho Vidal's: Bang Bang She-Male.
[edit] Derivative terms
Derivative terms for gangbang include gangie, gang splash and gang slash. When men form a line to have sex with a willing woman, the action of the woman has been referred to as pulling a train. Also, when discussing plans for a gangbang, men often refer to it as 'running a train'; as in "Let's run the train on this girl". When the act is restricted to one woman giving oral sex to several men, it is referred to as a gang blow.
[edit] Other meanings
In software development, the use of large numbers of loosely coupled programmers in an attempt to wedge a great many features into a product in a short time. Though there have been memorable gang bangs (e.g., that over-the-weekend assembler port mentioned in Steven Levy's Hackers), and large numbers of loosely-coupled programmers operating in bazaar mode can do very useful work when they're not on a deadline, most are perpetrated by large companies trying to meet unrealistic deadlines; the inevitable result is enormous buggy masses of code entirely lacking in orthogonality. When market-driven managers make a list of all the features the competition has and assign one programmer to implement each, the probability of maintaining a coherent (or even functional) design goes to epsilon.
