Bareback Blow Job (BBBJ)

Definition - What does Bareback Blow Job (BBBJ) mean?

A bareback blow job (BBBJ) is a colloquial term for fellatio performed without a condom. Sexual health professionals frown upon this practice, especially when it occurs in casual sex encounters, as there is a risk that either the giver or receiver may contract a sexually transmitted disease.

Kinkly explains Bareback Blow Job (BBBJ)

Many believe that the sensations of oral sex are increased during a bareback blow job. However, removing the condom also removes an important barrier between the mouth and genitals. Unless you know the sexual health of your partner, a BBBJ may put you at risk of contracting a range of sexually transmitted diseases including chlamydia, genital warts, gonorrhoea, hepatitis A, B, and C, and syphilis. The herpes virus can also be transmitted if the person performing oral sex has a cold sore.

There is also a small risk of spreading HIV, and this risk increases if the person performing oral sex has cuts or sores in the mouth, or if the receiver has cuts or sores on their genitals, as viruses and bacteria can be transferred more easily through broken skin. For this reason, partners should not try a BBBJ when these problems are present.
