There are two variations of the
Friendship Knot. The "Classical
Friendship Knot" or simply "
Friendship Knot", which is when two male friends form a lifelong heterosexual partnership by tying each others' penises together in a knot. There is nothing sexual about this ritual. It is a very meaningful event for the 2 friends participating, as it cements their lifelong bond of brotherhood.
The second variation is the "Oxford
Friendship Knot" or "Underhand Friendship Knot" . This is a more playful event or experience that happens at clubs and parties, weddings, limousines, airports, etc. This is not a ritual or rite of passage, it is a hedonistic activity in most situations. The "Underhander" is when two males, (typically
homosexual although not required or implied in any way) is similar to the Classical, however the penii are replaced by anal prolapses. The two men tie their prolapses anuses and usually colons together into a knot. This demonstration is far less culturally significant than the formal Friendship Knot, however it's popularity is growing rapidly as more and more people are performing it. The public performances have clearly caused a surge in watchers becoming participants soon after witnessing their first Friendship Knot,

Danny: You thinking what I'm thinking?
Lance: Bitch you know it.
Danny: *ties our dicks into a
Friendship Knot and repeatedly slams it in the car door*
