You could argue it has become the ultimate signifier of mind-blowing sex, especially within Black gay porn. Online, especially on Twitter, there are debates over whether or not creaming is a legitimate bodily reaction (it is!) or whether it’s something the person producing the cream should get checked out by a physician (possibly!). While creaming can occur in straight sex, creaming in the context of gay porn is when the bottom, the performer in the receptive position, produces a translucent, sometimes white, substance from their anus, a reaction to the pleasure they’re experiencing from the top, the insertive partner. “I never really knew what creaming was,” Blackstone said, “but I just knew that the tops would always say, ‘You creamy,’ and I would be like, ‘What the fuck is that?’” (He has a regular 9-to-5 job in public health advocating for HIV prevention and awareness.) But in his many years of experience, there’s one aspect of gay sex that, until he turned 25, remained a mystery: the act of creaming. JD Blackstone, a 33-year-old amateur adult performer based in Atlanta, has been working as a porn star - on-again, off-again - for about a decade.
