_remembers the concept of reverse psychology…_ Oh, I **hate** getting a blow job. Nothing I can’t stand more than a blow job. Yes sir, I am one blow job hating son of a gun. Keep those lips away from my pee-pee. If it were a choice between a blow job and raking my nuts through a pile of hot coals, I’d take the blow job, but only cause I’m not into the pain thing so much anymore. But if you had asked me two years ago…well, the answer would still be blow job. But that don’t mean I like it. _prays reverse psychology works…_ ---

Of course I couldn’t pass this thread up 🙂 Jarbaby,as usual,is right. It’s not about just sucking away,it’s about teasing. Tongue flicks,stroking,scratching the “taint” and sucking-with variations in intensity. And I love to give oral-not as much as I like to receive GOOD oral-but knowing I’m getting my partner excited gets me excited. And an excited hardygrrl,to quote Martha Stewart, is a good thing.🙂 ---

I’m not sure if this thread is (ahem) petering out, but for what it’s worth, I’ve never, **never** climaxed as a result of oral sex. I enjoy it just fine, but it’s more about sensitivity and intimacy than about orgasm. Mostly, after five or ten minutes, I get so hot and bothered I throw my partner off and ravish her unmercifully. Mmmmmm… ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by cuautemhoc \* > \*\* > > 1. I like to _participate_. Getting head is just _sitting_ there. What am I supposed to do with my hands?\*\* Now, I really originally believed I could read this thread and not post. BUT… I’m not giving tips, which the OP apparently did not request, I’m just thinking… and wondering… I’ve never met a man who didn’t come from a blow job before. I’ve had men express shock that they _did_ come from a blow job, after it happened. So this whole thread is a bit of a shock to me. But, you know, everybody likes/dislikes something different. As for what to do with your hands, my SO says he gets all tingly and almost paralyzed in his extremeties (with one major exception) while I’m giving him a blow job. But I’ve never really expected him to do anything to me while it’s happening. Don’t mess with me too much, I’m busy doing my thing and having fun. You know? ---

Maybe it’s just the technique or something, but I’ve only managed to come twice from oral sex - once when I was stoned, and once when I was concentrating very intensely. I do enjoy receiving oral sex… for a while. But I’d rather just have intercourse, I’m better at it. ---

Fascinating. One of my favorite George Carlin bits is: _Things you never hear: Stop sucking my dick or I’m calling the police._ Apparently George was wrong. Another BJ joke: _On the morning of the wedding, the Bride – in full wedding mufti – sneaks into the Groom’s room and gives him a wonderful blow job, ‘for old times sake.’ An hour later, the Groom is standing at the front of the church – still smiling. The Best Man asks, “Why the smile?” and the Groom replies, "I just had the best blow job of my life – marriage is gonna be_ great! \*Meanwhile, in the back of the church, the Bride is waiting for the music to begin. She’s still grinning, too. Her Maid of Honor asks, “Why the grin?” and the bride replies, “I just gave the last blow job of my life. Marriage is gonna be \*great!” Maybe **cuautemhoc** should get married. Jess (who does still give the _occasional_ BJ, despite being married. Only to her husband, though.) ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by JillGat \* > \*\*[[Why do you encourage partners to try, knowing that they will not please you?]] > > You don’t _have_ to “encourage” someone to do something that is generally accepted by everyone to be the be-all, end-all activity that males want beyond anything else. Some women do it because they really enjoy performing oral sex, and others do it because they just assume that’s what all guys really want. I think the OP was just suggesting that this is not true of All Males. He also did not say he didn’t enjoy it - just that it isn’t the thing he desires above all else. Many men assume that’s what all women mainly want too - receiving oral sex - and that’s not the case either. \*\* Bravo. Wiser words were not written in this thread. Some of us don’t like blowjobs, and trying to be that special person who will get us off that way for the first time adds a great deal of pleasure and destroys the enjoyment when they’ve turned it into a challenge. On the other hand, I love to give and can suck the chrome off a bumper at fifty feet. ---

Very wise words. But of course, part of Exploding the Blow Job Myth would have to be exploding the that women only do it because they believe it’s the ultimate male fantasy. As has been mentioned, they may be doing it because really really like it. (And should cuautemhoc fall in love with one of those women the tips for enjoying it more contained herein will start to come in handy :). ) ---
