  1. Albur

    In Mexico, an albur is a pun or a double entendre in which one of the possible meanings usually carries sexual undertones. It is very common among groups of predominately male friends; however, its use is considered rude or distasteful when not amongst friends, especially when in the presence of women. Albur is also a form of comedy and many artists and comedians, including Alberto Rojas "El Caballo", Polo Polo, and others are renowned for their skills at performing albures. Brozo has been known for having albureado several prominent political figures in Mexican television such as Mexico's former president, Felipe Calderon. Usually, the game of albures is a subtle, verbal competition in which the players try to show superiority by using albures attempting to leave the opponent without a comeback. There are two general purposes in an albur, sexual and generally degrading: Sexual ⁕To show off the alburero's masculinity by making a remark of him being the "aggressor" in a sexual intercourse ⁕To imply the opponent's lack of virility by stating him to be the "victim" in a sexual encounter. In the context of an albur, the receptive side of the sexual intercourse is considered to be the "losing" side while the male, giving, active side is the "winner". This applies regardless of whether it is male to male or male to female intercourse.
