The act of engaging sexual intercourse while both parties involved keep their clothes on. Analogous to dry humping. Often performed when time factors into coitus.

The urban legend whispered among the friction-deprived—“zipper sparking” refers to that rare and awkward moment when two people get close enough for their denim hardware to make contact, producing a heat so foreign to their bodies it might as well be a fire hazard.
It’s not foreplay. It’s fore-shame. The physical equivalent of two microwaved Hot Pockets colliding in a tragic dance of static cling and unmet expectations. Most who use the term haven’t actually experienced it—they’re just fantasizing about what it might be like to be in the same ZIP code as intimacy.
In the wild, zipper sparking is less a sexy moment and more a clunky cry for help. If it happens, it’s followed not by the sound of someone Googling “do I need aloe for my friction burn?”
