(Consider the title; the posting is thoroughly unsuitable for kids and the sexually modest)
Yes, a heavy-handed, cheerily vulgar pun on summa cum laude (for an undergraduate degree with highest distinction), pretty much what you expect in the titles of porn flicks: here, MEN.com’s 2024 DVD Summa Cum Load Vol. 1, as featured in gay porn emporium Gay Empire’s Back to Class sale ad (in my mail today — just the thing for a gay professor’s birthday!):
(#1) In a classic gay porn genre, the college fraternity initiation, complete with arcane ceremonies and — wait for #2 — butt-paddling; elaborate homosocial bonding (in male dominance structures) that’s easily converted to homoerotic ends
The pun in the title is cum load ‘an ejaculation of semen’, punning on cum laude; the pun is phonologically fairly distant, but then imperfect puns on familiar fixed expressions can wander pretty far from their models while still being recognized, in fact are often valued for the challenge of the phonological disparity they exhibit.
The video stars Ashton Summers, Cristiano, Dom King, Kyle Fletcher, Michael Vente, and Trevor Brooks. There are six parts; the title art for part 1, somewhat altered to conceal the forest of penises, which are, alas, not WordPressable:
(#2) Summers, Fletcher, and Cristiano in this episode; in the ad montage, the guy at the top is jacking off two dicks at once, while the guy at the bottom is sucking cock
Meanwhile, everyone seems so earnest. Where’s the joy, where’s the ecstasy? To judge from the trailers, the actual video is well-produced and the actors are enthusiastic, so SCL looks like it does a good job in getting guys off, which is its reason for being.
A comparison. As it happens, also in today’s e-mail, came an ad for a different seasonal sale, Hunt e-magazine’s Mega Summer Sale on Fort Troff items, with a very different feel to it:
(#3) A gauzy-focus shot of two leathermen in gear, in the midst of hot sex (the guy on the left is jacking himself off with the help of his partner, while getting fucked by his partner; his head is tilted back in ecstasy, and he’s pressing his fucker’s mouth to his so that they can kiss
Wow.
