Definitions
A versatile slang term primarily used as crude shorthand for sexual intercourse — direct, unambiguous, and definitely not polite company material. Beyond the sexual sense, 'humping' also simply means hauling or carrying something heavy with effort, which gives it an interesting double life. In the military, soldiers 'hump' their gear across terrain; on the street, it means someone's working hard physically. Context makes all the difference when this word comes up.
They spent the whole day humping boxes up four flights of stairs to help their friend move into the new apartment.
