Meaning
A vulgar dancehall term for a man who boasts of his sexual prowess — from 'jook' (to poke or thrust) plus 'man'. Sexual boasting of this kind is a staple of dancehall lyrics, where a man brags of being a tireless, skilful lover, and the 'jookman' is the swaggering figure of that boast. Crude and sexual, it belongs to the explicit, adult register of the music, and it is documented here for comprehension only, one of the many frank terms with which dancehall talks up male sexual performance.
