Gang Bang
A gang bang is a form of group sexual activity in which one person becomes the central focus of sexual activity involving several other participants, either sequentially or simultaneously.
The term most commonly refers to one woman with multiple men, while the opposite arrangement — one man with multiple women — is often called a reverse gang bang.
The term became widely associated with the adult entertainment industry, where such scenes are often staged and filmed.
