Opossumming

The practice of inserting a opossum into the rectum via pipe with the intention of deriving sexual gratification. Gerbilling often presents as a gateway to opossumming as individuals’ appetite for internal stimulation goes unsatisfied by smaller rodents. The opossum’s solitary, nocturnal tendencies make it particularly well suited for internal use though users report significantly more internal trauma compared to gerbilling.

The tender paws of the gerbil were no match for Rodney’s unique sexual demands. He soon turned to opossumming to satisfy his urges.
