Why is it called "Busting a Nut"?

When guys cum, why do they use the term "busting a nut", "bust a nut," "nutting"? I'm assuming there's correlation between your testicle (nuts) but you're not technically "busting" it. I think it would hurt! haha.. Anyway, do you use it? Do you know where it came from? Where did you learn it?

As far as i know, it assimilates say like a coconut, when you bust it open & all the "milk" comes shooting out.

In 62 years, I think I've only heard it a time or two.

I figure, if your nut is busted, you'll know. And you probably won't be bragging.

Busting a nut has the same origins as "ball-buster", something that's difficult or undesirable to do, or a person making you do said activity.

It's an east coast expression. It's not California cool in the slightest.

I'm from CT, but never heard it until reading it on the Internet somewhere a few years ago. I don't know the origin, but I think it's one of a variety of euphemisms for ejaculation used because the average boy or man he grows into is embarrassed to say the real word and needs a cool short word he can blurt out to express something sexual.

The expression here usually means to apply maximum effort to whatever job /project at hand...go all out regardless in accomplishing a goal.

The key word is "a". This is a guy who almost came unraveled by an ordeal and "Liked to have busted a nut." A fully busted nut is one that pops perfectly. Giving the idea that the situation was nut worthy. Yet given the situations when M.F. is used, and has nothing to do with mamas, busting a nut is similar in declaring an extreme was experienced, but involving only one and not both.

Incase one is composing an idiom dictionary for language translation, this is the way I have heard it used most often.

I think it's an expression used by black guys who say, "I'm so horny I think I'm gonna bust a nut!"

Probably started off an expression of tension, but then transitioned to be an expression of release.
