It involves the withdrawal of a penis or sex toy from the receptive partner's anus followed by the immediate insertion into the receptive partner's or another partner's mouth.
Health concerns
If the recipient of ass-to-mouth is performing fellatio on a penis or object that was removed from his/her own rectum, the health risks are generally limited to disturbances of the gastrointestinal tract, which may proceed from introducing normal intestinal flora from the rectum to the mouth and upper digestive tract. If the recipient's ano-rectal area is infected with a sexually transmitted disease like gonorrhea, however, there is an added risk of transmitting the infection to that person's mouth and/or throat. as well as intestinal parasites and other organisms that can be carried in feces, but the risk exists generally only if performing the act on a penis or object that was removed from a third person's rectum. For example, the third person would have to first be infected with Hepatitis A for there to be a risk of infection for the recipient.
It is unknown whether thoroughly washing the anal area and applying an enema results in reduced risk of disease, although general cleanliness is advisable for any sexual act. Porn industry performers often use enemas prior to filming anal sex sequences; however, this is primarily to eliminate the possibility of any fecal matter appearing on film rather than disease prevention.
