File:Ambigram Ejaculate.gif

English: Vertical axis reflection ambigram ejaculate. This symmetrical word is supposed to read Ejaculate from left to right and from right to left. A fountain above can remind the semen splashing. The three letters E, A and U are naturally symmetric, while the J turns into a T, and the C into a L, both combinations specifically shaped to create this visual palindrome. There is a humorous intention behind this creation to provide an aesthetic object related to a taboo sexual action. This high resolution file can be printed on the paper for a specific publication, on the skin for a humorous tattoo, or on a t-shirt as a modern and trendy design.

Similar sexually connoted ambigrams have been published in books like Ambigrams Revealed, for example Love Fuck page 149 designed by professional calligrapher Seb Lester. The drawing Sex, Drugs & Rock n Roll by artist Awang Purba, page 151, is also displayed on the cover of the book (at the upper left corner). And the artwork I love sex produced by the author of the publication, is the same kind. As a result, this image released in the public domain could be used for similar purpose. Humor often helps to understand calligraphic tricks.

It is a humble artistic material to illustrate literary palindromes, like "Sex at noon taxes" (14 letters that can be read forward and backward), by famous writer Sally Van Doren, the title of the book containing poems on the same topic.
