Pearl necklace (sexual act) explained

A "pearl necklace" is slang for a sexual act in which a man ejaculates semen on or near the neck or chest of another person.^[1] The term originates from the way the deposited semen resembles a necklace of translucent white pearls.^{[2] [3]}

A pearl necklace can be used as a form of erotic humiliation or degradation of the person receiving the semen. Receiving a pearl necklace is an activity that sex workers use as a safe sex alternative for people who prefer not to wear condoms.^[4]
