Bum Butter is a product intended to be used to
alleviate nappy rash on the bum of a baby, but which may also be
used to treat a variety of other minor skin complaints on people of
all ages. ---- Bum Butter is a product primarily
used to assist in the placing of one's penis into another's rectum
by providing lubrication of a suitable grade. (Conventional water
based lubricants are usually considered not to be viscous enough
for use as an anal lubricant). This may be regular dairy
butter, or a purpose
produced substance with a similar consistency. Or it may come in a
generic tube labeled "Anal Lube" as seen in Jackass the
Movie.
The film Last Tango in Paris popularised the
use of Bum Butter when it was featured in an anal sex scene.
A
cheaper and inferior version of the product manufactured in the
1960s and 1970s in Eastern Europe was know as 'bum margarine' or
'bumjarine'. A retro version of bumjarine called 'I can't believe
it's not Bum Butter' was produced in the 1990s in Britain, but had
to be withdrawn due to pressure by the legal representatives of the
makers of 'I can't believe it's not butter'.
