As this is the most important point in the thread so far, I thought it was worth repeating.

I can’t. ☹
But, if I could I probably wouldn’t ever leave home. 😃

My cousin Walter broke his neck trying to suck his own dick. Bible truth. My aunt found him. On his bed, doubled over himself with his legs on top. Dick in his mouth. My aunt freaked out. It was a mess. Balls resting on his lips. He made it though. But at what a price.

Bible Truth. Posting unattributed quotes from the movie “Clerks” as your own text in GQ with not even a winking smiley for context is not the best way to start your SDMB voyage.

Balls Resting On His Lips
Randal: Balls resting on his lips.
Dante: Wow. He really made it.
Randal: Yeah, but at what a price.

Just the good old, standard Boy Scouts of America.
The ‘Kid’ was a 16 year old - near the top end of the scouting scale. The Scoutmaster was in his tent, asleep. No merit badge, I THINK. If there was, he didn’t wear it in public.

A friend of a friend could do it and did often apparently.
Asked jokingly whether he spits or swallows, he responded -with a straight face no less - “a little of both”
EWWWW!!!

Reminds me of an old joke:
I was two inches away from getting a blow job last night - I just couldn’t bend any further!

If you can, do you spit or swallow?

JellyDonut, you have waaaaaaay to much time on your hands.
Try to improve your social skills.
Have a nice chat with your parents.
Call your grandparents.
Hang out with your friends.
Try getting a girlfriend.
Try getting out of the house.
Stop watching late night HBO.
Give the porn up for awhile.
Pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaase!!!
As cool as you think it is now, I doubt you will ever be able to put ‘can give self blowjobs’ on a resume.
Or mention it at a family reunion. “Oh by the way, Aunt Sally, did you know I can suck my own schlong? Been doin’ it for years.”
Just let it go, please.

does anyone think giving yourself a blowjob would be a good turn on for girls?

I do, but sometimes I don’t and I need an enjoyable activity to fill those times

Hahahaha, you think I haven’t tried that. Ugly guys need pleasure too!

We don’t get HBO…you have to pay extra for it (Grr) but once the cable company screwed up and gave us it by accident for about a week. I still have the videotapes 😉

P.S. Why did you even bother posting to this thread, or even opening it if you know I’ve got such a “serious problem.” I just wanted a little anatomical question answered, a little bit of curiosity fulfilled. It’s not like I’m going to _try_ it…again. 😉

Already alluded to by **Guinastasia** and the four posters after, but it’s a good question: If you **can** -or even if you can’t but **wish you could** (a la **urban1** )-, how does that affect your sexual orientation? People who respond such as **Guinastasia** did are probably flaming heterosexuals, so the question is already answered for them.

Hey isn’t it true that some guy had surgery performed on himself and thus had some ribs removed with the sole purpose of being able to suck his own dick? I’ve heard stories about it but it might be an urban legend. Does anyone know?

This was discussed in another thread and is a matter for GD. If you are a male and like a female doing it, it was said in that thread that you wouldn’t let a male do it unless you are a homosexual. So what if you are blindfolded and cannot see the sex of the person doing it? You’d still enjoy it, provided you thought the person was a female. Even better, your girlfriend. If you can do it to yourself, you know the person is of the same sex, so it is not quite the same. However, the knowledge of the sex of the blower only vitiates the pleasure psychologically. Once you get over the hang-up of the sex, the pleasure is the same. I can’t do it, but, as I said, I love me and would if I could.
