Question

What is a 'Glory Hole'??

Answer 1

tHE actual MEANING of this phrase - if you look up in a dictionary - actually relates to mining activities underground (such as for oil or minerals) and refers to the activity of drilling upwards from below until the mining equipment breaks through to the surface.... the answers you have received referring to sexual activity is what this phrase has been turned into a slang for .....

Answer 2

Do you really want to know? Cos the answer I have is NOT pretty?

Anyway (assuming you are well over 18) a glory hole is a hole in a wall (generally in a mens toilet cubicle), a man will put his p***s through this hole with the intention of being given fellatio by another man.  This act is meant to be completely anonymous, which is why there is no other contact.

I hope there is another meaning because, as I said, this one is not very nice (unless you like that sort of thing, in which case good luck to ya)!

Answer 3

The ORIGINAL gloryhole was a dark enclosed corner where ships stokers had their quarters.  Also a corner where 'stuff' is thrown and stored in a mess!!  

Answer 4

Nowadays it's also used to refer to a cupboard or room which is used like a loft.  Somewhere to store everything for which you can't find a better storage place.  They usually end up being places where you can't find anything either because you've heaped so much in there; we have a bedroom like that since we have no real loft space.

If you are thinking about it from the gardening angle, it's usually the garden shed.

Answer 5

a glory hole is where there's a hole in the wall and a guy sticks his p***s through the hole in the wall while a woman plays with it. i don't know if they can have s*x through one though.

Answer 6

LOL.  

Answer 7

It's also the term used to describe the overflow on a man made lake or reservoir.  RScott

Answer 8

a glory hole is is small indentation in the ground into which one places morning glory seeds in order to grow them.

i'm stretching the truth considerably but my answer sounds much more in keeping with what is expected in the standard gardening section. i don't believe there is an uphill gardening section in Y!A!  

Answer 9

Well I didn't know a glory hole could have so many meanings  

as a child we had a glory hole, it was a room in the eaves where all the old bits and pieces were stored rather than throwing them away.
