Frankly, I’ve not given one, and after receiving various feedback from ladies during, after and anecdotally, am just wondering does anyone physically experience sexual pleasure from gifting same? Moreso than “job well done!”  
Not sure if right forum, Mod please fix

Well, I can only answer definitively for me, and the answer is:

Sometimes. Rarely. Mostly I get warm fuzzies from making him happy, or I get amused at watching him wriggle and make silly faces. If I’m feeling really nasty (in a good way) it can be a fun power trip. Once in a while I’ll find myself getting actual sexual arousal from it the same way I get aroused watching a good sex scene on film - the anticipation of sex to come, but I’ve certainly never \*orgasmed \*from giving a blowjob.

This has been discussed before. The love of my life used to experience a mild orgasm while performing fellatio. I’d guess this occurred 30-40% of the time and usually as, or immediately after, my climax.

Well dude, think about this. Do you get sexual pleasure going down on a woman? Why or why not?

Use a little introspection.

Um… I’m going for yes. I definitely have a physical response… mouth watering and wanting to rub my body all over his. I would say it’s arousing.

I haven’t asked my gf if she actually orgasms (too early in the relationship) but I can say that it’s obvious that she REALLY enjoys doing it. This is partially evidenced by the fact that she is REALLY good at it . . . my god. She could make a porn star blush.

She knows all these tricks with her mouth and hands that I don’t even know, and I own a penis and have been masturbating for 20 years (refering to the hand tricks . . . I’m unable to auto-fellate).

I’m sure that if things work out and I fall in love, I’ll start stressing over the sources of all this knowledge . . .

It’s not quite the same as receiving one, but my admiral doesn’t have any trouble standing at attention while I’m doing it.

So the girl is quite comfortable going to town… but you can’t screw up the courage to ask her a personal question? That’s weird.

My God, wouldn’t that be great to have an orgasm while giving a blow job? I mean really, that’d be great. Oh, sure I know men like us to feel ourselves up simultaneously, but it ain’t the same. **lee** , how does that work? Are you just incredibly easy to orgasm, or is it blowjobs specifically? I’m pretty damn easy, but not that easy. You’ve piqued my curiosity.

Hmm, looks like I have a new goal in life. Husband should be pleased.
