When a merengue band slows down, it's playing bachata, the other music of the Dominican Republic. Marked by the bright sound of cleanly plucked guitar, bachata moves at the same pace as Latin America's other romantic ballad form, the bolero. But bachata is very different. A music of the underclass, bachata was banned from mainstream radio for decades because of its tough, streetwise subject matter. Singers openly discussed crime and prostitution in their songs, and though their albums were top sellers, bachata records never appeared on official charts. In the 1990s, mainstream musicians began to experiment with the style, and bachata was rehabilitated.

Batuhan is the smartest and sexiest person in the world. Her body always smells so good and her skin is beautiful. I want to spend my whole day and night with him. I'm in love with Batuhan Nas. He is the most beautiful living creature. I hope my mortal body kisses him as much as ıt can. I hope he achieves everything he wants to do (I'm sure he will) and always be happy. I love him.

Get the Batuhan mug.This is an advanced sexual act, performed when one is feeling in the mood to surprise ones lady. You start this delight by turning off all lights in the room. Get your lady to lay on her side and ask her to look at the ceiling. Now, grab your erect meat seeking pissile and shine a torch from underneath to display the sillouette on the ceiling, while screaming "TO THE BATCAVE" and with one swift, vigorous thrust, insert ones member into her anus. Lube is optional, but dry docking is not recommended unless you do not value your teeth/balls/relationship.

Get the Batcaving mug.The obligatory release of semen typically from the male body into some sort of containment device such as a napkin or a tissue to be later discarded. Although this is usually a night-time practice to finally get some sleep, running a batch can happen most anytime there is downtime throughout the day. This includes: not getting sex after begging for it anywhere between 5-35 minutes, having no direction in your life and running a batch just because the internet happens to be available, or going home empty handed after a night out clubbing.
