The designation refers to the stereotype of black men having large penises, and has been described by some critics as portraying black men as animalistic and aggressive.[1][4][5][6] The trope is typically invoked in the promotion of pornography featuring a black male performer and a white or Asian female performer.[7]
The stereotype appears in gay, bisexual, and straight media,[1] with the "BBC" acronym also being "ubiquitous among gay men on dating sites, in pornography, and in other gay sexual spaces. Its use extends beyond penis size itself to encompass a number of sexual traits that would establish Black men as prized sexual partners. It often includes specific mention of dominance, aggressiveness, and submission of the White partner," according to sexuality studies scholar Logan D. Trevon.[4] The term also appears in connection with cuckoldry fetishism.[2]
Receptionedit
The term is considered by some to carry racist connotations, to embody the fetishization of black men, and to perpetuate harmful stereotypes about the physical features and sexual appetites and inclinations of black men.[1][8]
Writer and activist Rhammel Afflick said he had found that "my worth is often only perceived sexually. There are always references to me having a 'BBC' (big black cock)".[9]
Lerone Clarke-Oliver opined in The Gay Times that "seeing Black men in porn labelled as 'Thugs' or, 'BBC' (to name but two harmful categorisations) or 'Black [insert search term] has off-line and real-world psychological consequences".[10]
As of 2022[update], the term, "BBC", was the 20th most searched category of pornography on Pornhub. This was noted to be a decrease from previous years.[11]
