Dogging

Dogging is a slang term primarily used in the UK and some other parts of Europe to describe the practice of engaging in or watching sexual activities in public places, typically in secluded areas such as parks or car parks. It often involves people meeting strangers for sexual encounters, with the added thrill of potentially being observed by others. The term "dogging" is believed to have originated from the excuse of "walking the dog" used by participants to explain their presence in these areas.

Additional Information

Dogging combines elements of exhibitionism, voyeurism, and group sex. Participants may use car headlights, interior lights, or mobile phones to signal their interest or presence. While the practice has gained a subculture following, it's important to note that public sexual activity is illegal in many jurisdictions and can lead to legal consequences.

Dogging communities often use online forums or apps to arrange meetups or share locations. Safety and consent are crucial concerns, as the public nature of the activity can pose risks. Some participants only engage in watching, while others may participate in sexual acts.
