evilbeth, ah ha! But I was actually quoting a prior message from the same topic posted in 2000. This topic has been posted so much that it’s easily requoteable. You should know it was a prior topic. ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by jay-c \* > After foolin’ around with the SO last night, I came up with another thought - how many guys will kiss their partner post-swallowing? I’ve had one SO who would squeal like a girl and run if my mouth even came near his afterthe deed. The current SO has no such problems, however. He says that if I don’t have a problem with it, why should he? How common is this attitude? I will and do kiss a partner after she gives me Meep **head** (pardon the pun :D). I figure that if my penis is good enough to go in her mouth, and my semen is part of the deal, then it should be good enough for me to kiss her after the fact. Partners I have done this with seem to think is very erotic, and appreciate the gesture. As for the OP, spit or swallow, it doesn’t matter. I find it a little more pleasurable if she continues her artistry through the full couse of my orgasm, but I would never complain if doing that was a problem for her. The mere fact that she went down there is an honor and a priviledge to be savored and enjoyed, no matter what the outcome. (pardon the pun :D) ---

Sophomore year in HS, I had the (mis)fortune of getting my first head job from a very attractive girl who kept the change. Friends told me that was rare and they were right - it wasn’t til after I graduated from college that I found another girl that actually liked/preferred to swallow. She said it was “rude” to do otherwise. She loved giving head, even more than getting it. I was in absolute heaven. Then we got married. Turns out that we had a limited oral sex clause in the vows. I didn’t hear it, sure didn’t write it, but apparently it was there. I shouldn’t complain. The actual sex is incredible, and there’s plenty of oral, as long as I’m reciprocating at the same time. But I do miss the times where I’d be doing laundry or somethin and it would get interupted by a quaaaality act of fellatio, with her following through by keepin the results. But hey! Marriage is bliss! ---

The only problem I have with kissing my gal after I’ve given her a good bout of cunnilingus is … well … giving cunnilingus feels so darn good that kissing her “regular” lips afterward is taking a step **down**. Normal first-base kissing feels good, but kissing her “other” lips feels really **really** good. (Especially when I get to wrap my arms around her thighs and rub her inner thighs with my hands while I’m going down on her. Damn, I miss getting to do that!) ---

I’m another if those ‘I like it but it’s not a necessity’ guys. My current g/f hasn’t done oral sex before, so she’s working up to it 😃 Still having lots of fun though… ---

Spit? Swallow? Perish the thought. When it’s time for yours truly to release his mighty blast of baby batter, I always prefer _facials._ Yes, there’s nothing like the pleasure I get when my partner strokes my dude-steak directly at her face, leaving her coated with so much quagg, it looks like she had a nasty fall at a glazed doughnut factory. My favorite? When she lets me do the discharging of my weapon. That way, I can aim better. My favorite is to send a hot-sticky blurt of man seed directly up her nostrils. The surprised look, and the cum-bubbles coming from both nostrils (one if she has a cold) are very aesthetically pleasing. Sometimes, in order to provide her with a larger splash than usual, I will collect my semen in a beer bong, and rain it down to her from a ladder. The overflowing river of jizz running down her face and neck never fail to elicit a sigh of satisfaction. _sigh_ ---

I’ve actually ended up swallowing my own. One of the first times I had sex with my wife, I went down on her afterwards, since I came before her (my principle is nobody walks away without an orgasm). I guess I was caught up in the heat of the moment, because it wasn’t until I had a mouthful of my own cum that I realized what had happened. I choked a little, since it had a thick texture, not because I was grossed out or because of the taste (my cum doesn’t taste all that bad - a little salty). Anyway, I wasn’t about to interrupt going down on her. But I did gargle afterwards, just to get the phlegmy feeling out of the back of my throat. ---

23 s/w/m hetero… to put this blunt would be the best way I suppose. o.k., I like it better when the woman swallows… why? Well, because the suction I guess is the best answer. When a woman stops and just kinda lets it go off, it’s an o.k. orgasm, but when it’s the kind where she suckin like she’s looking for the antidote, it’s a much, much better finale. There’s also a thing about the running to the bathroom to spit it out like you just swallowed a nice warm glass of death that is just a turn off. All the ladies i’ve been with have liked to recieve, even if they didn’t like to give, and I’ve never complained about it. Everyone has a different taste, smell, and texture. People should just enjoy thier partner. Punk snot dead, broccoli! (with apologies to chris rock on the ‘antidote’ reference… mmm Robitussin) ---

He says that if I don’t have a problem with it, why should he? How common is this attitude? \*\* [/QUOTE] I had one girlfriend who swallowed, and the first time it happened was in my car after a movie and she could not wait until we made it home. Anyway, after everything was put back I kissed her (with tongue and everything :eek: ) She was very surprised when I did it and asked me why. I feel that if she can swallow it all, I can a least show her in some way that I do appreciate it. ---

Just thought I’d bump this to add my own comments. Quite a bump too, if I do say so. I swallow, in my opinion it doesn’t taste bad and there’s no reason not to. It’ll just make everything more messy, and cleaning up kind of ruins the mood. One of the most fun things I’ve ever done was tie him to the bed, go down on him, and then lick it off his incredibly sexy belly. Grrroowwwwllll… Hot damn, now I’m horny. Wahhhh… ☹ ---

The first time I had sex with one of my exes, we were at her place and had takeaway McDonalds. I’ll ALWAYS remember feeding her my semen from her fanny\* with one of those cheap little sundae spoons after we’d had sex. She definitely swallowed and swallowed a lot as it was the rain that had broken a very long drought for me. 🙂 I saw her for the first time in over a year a fortnight ago and she STILL has that spoon! BTW, I only just worked out what TMI stood for. Was all that stuff TMI? - American fannies are NOT the same sort of thing as Aussie/Kiwi/Brit fannies. That would be just too gross… … for a first date.;)0i ---
