> [@black\_rabbit](#): > > A little bit of suction is nice. And by “a little bit,” I mean: Purse your lips and inhale for five seconds, just hard enough so that you make a popping sound when you open your mouth. Well if we are talking specifics, what I had in mind in an earlier post was what my partner does: in the middle of a BJ take in all the available penis create a seal, and **slooooooooooooooooowly** pull back then go back to licking, teasing etc ---

In other movies/stand up routines etc., I’ve heard things like “She can suck start a leaf blower” or “She can suck the chrome off a trailer hitch.” Just wanted to have mentioned “she can suck a golf ball through a garden hose” to the list. I fear for an actual BLOW job if these velocities are required. ---

Thanks everyone. I guess what really brought on the question is that I always associated those kinds of lines with characters like I imagine Jenny McCarthy played in Baseketball. It often seems like an apology “your girlfriend’s not too pretty/bright/whatever” “Yeah but she can…” It just seemed really out of place when Meg Ryan was saying it about herself (her character) in The Women. ---

Meh. I could care less with what you do with it afterwards, including running to the bathroom to gargle. After all, it’s not like _I_ would swallow it (or let you snowball me). ---

If you just want a simple rule of thumb, neither suck nor blow. In fact, just hum. ---

> [@tdn](#): > > Meh, I can deal with that. The wrong thing to do is to run to the bathroom and spit, rinse, brush, floss, gargle, and avoid sweets. Yeah, if you don’t like the taste then don’t swallow. We don’t feel good knowing that what was a pleasurable experience for us obviously disgusts you. We want it to be good for everyone. ---

What does the taste have to do with swallowing? You taste it as soon as it’s in your mouth? It’s mostly the texture, to me, but I swallow just the same. I wouldn’t like if someone was spitting and gagging all over the place after going down on me! ---

> [@Giles](#): > > My brief observation: it’s called a blow job rather than a suck job. When I was young and naive, that’s just what I thought it was–just a lot of blowing on the member. I was quite confused about why guys would enjoy that, but I figured, hey, what do I know about being a guy? ---
