I woulda been the kind of middle school 😃 ---

Swallowing Camp? Hahah. I guess I belong there. It never had any real flavour appeal to me, no, absolutely not. I think it was moreso to make the man happier about the experience. Turns them on more, makes them feel whatever it is they might feel (I can’t say because i’m not a man) The run-to-spit-in-sink examples from above are exactly what I mean. How the hell would it make me feel if a guy went and hosed his mouth out with something after treating me to the deed? Pretty sexy im sure ::eyeroll:: I mean, giving head isn’t exactly something a woman does exclusively for HER pleasure. (Sure, I enjoy doing it, very much, but I’m not doing it because it’s engorging my genitalia in flames of throbbing lust) So it’s part of the project. The final glue that holds the toy boat together, or whatever. The mans pleasure is the ultimate goal here, and if you start something like that, you need to be willing to finish it. ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by girlb0x \* > \*\*… if you start something like that, you need to be willing to finish it. \*\* Hmm, so why is it that some women will start this if they aren’t willing to finish (foreplay before actual intercourse not included of course - that’s perfectly fine with me - helps with lubrication anyway)? Luckily my last SO was of the same mind as you, but I’ve run into several who don’t seem to feel that way. Oh, I’m not necessarily talking about not swallowing here either, I mean literally _not finishing_ (assuming the guy isn’t a complete ass, of course - then it’s understandable)… or is that a whole 'nother thread in itself? This thread probably hasn’t attracted that type of person anyway. I fear we’ve already scared 'em off for good! ---

Did I hear you correctly **fly**? As in _not finish at all_? That’s not very cool. It’s not manditory to swallow (but preferable), but the gentleman in question could cum on another part of her body. That in iteself can turn into an erotic experience, if _handled correctly_. ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by tag \* > \*\*Did I hear you correctly **fly**? As in _not finish at all_? That’s not very cool. \*\* Indeed. Three different girls as a matter of fact. Why hook up with me only to stop short? Needless to say two of those girls didn’t last very long with me (ok, so one night, really). The third I was actually dating for a few months, and she didn’t do it all the time, but I never knew when she was going to follow through and when she wasn’t… talk about playing with your mind (or should I say head?)! The trauma resulting from those experiences has been more than offset by others who were more than willing… 😉 still though, it confuses me. ---

Look Look I’m on topic! and I’m new! Is there maybe a rookie of the thread award? Swallow is the only way to go… or…er…come. I love the taste, the smell, the way it makes me feel and the way ‘it’ feels… but I have a dirty little secret… and I don’t think it’s been mentioned before (why do I always feel the need to read every single post and comment?) My problem begins even before the…payload. As soon as pre-ejaculate enters my mouth my throat gets all coated-feeling where I feel the involuntary reflex to clear my throat, cough and swallow repeatedly. I suppress the need to stop and clear my thought et al but that sure gets annoying and it’s beginning to take away from MY enjoyment of the magnificent male member and its manufactured memento. AND this feeling lasts all day. Any suggestions? ---
