A sexual ritual and/or implement of couples’ sex therapy involving a couple (who typically share a sexual bond), foreplay, laxatives, defecation, penetrative sex, and Yoo-hoo chocolate milk. The ritual begins with the penetrator, the designation assigned to the party which will deliver the penetration, consuming a laxative (this ritual is most successful when the penetrator consumes a large amount of food without defecating before the ritual is performed). The penetrator waits until he or she is ready to excrete feces (some may wait until they are on the verge of incontinence to gain explosive power in their defecation) before notifying the penetratee, the designation assigned to the party to be penetrated, that he or she is ready to proceed. The penetratee then opens a bottle of Yoo-hoo chocolate milk, inserting the bottleneck into the orifice designated for penetration; once the bottleneck is fully contained within this orifice, the penetratee squeezes the bottle, thoroughly coating the inner surfaces exposed by the orifice with chocolate milk. The penetratee then exclaims “Yoo-hoo.” The penetrator responds by defecating in the penetratee’s designated orifice and immediately initiating penetrative sex. The ritual is complete when one party vomits or reaches orgasm.

Etymology: the term was inspired by a Reddit discussion chain under r/AskReddit involving Yoo-hoo chocolate milk and feces.
Ex. 1: “Hot yoo-hoos sure lubricate my innards well, but since after my fourth one, guys are telling me that my pussy doesn’t taste like pineapple anymore.”

Ex. 2: “That hot yoo-hoo gave me hepatitis.”

Ex. 3: “Whoever came up with the idea for a ‘hot yoo-hoo’ must be sick in the head.”
