This is not advised, however, as brushing creates tiny cuts in the mouth. So don’t do this, fellators/fellatrices. Brush your teeth, of course, just don’t give head right afterwards. A little toothpaste in the mouth, though, without brushing, is apparently nice, according to a friend of mine.

This friend, by the way, laughed immoderately when I declared that I wanted to have a penis so I could see what blow jobs were like from the receiving end. Sorry. I’m just naturally curious.

Now I am also curious to know if anyone else favors the position I like to give head in.

Oh? And what position might that be?

The giver sits cross-legged, generally on the bed, although it works well on a couch too. The receiver kneels in front of the giver. If sitting cross-legged becomes uncomfortable, it’s easy to stretch out my legs for a bit this way. I find this puts everything in a good alignment for me, and allows the receiver easy access to my breasts or shoulders, if he needs something to do. 😃 It’s also a good position for another part of oral sex I enjoy–wrapping my arms around the man’s hips and holding him close while he thrusts into my mouth.

Well, I tried giving blowjobs by telegram, but that didn’t work out.

Why not do it with enthusiasm, if you’re going to do it at all? That’s my view.

Is it OK that I’m now confused? Because I am.

Have I mentioned there’s a Dopefest in San Diego at midnight tonight? It’s, er, only for out of town Dopers whose usernames start with T, end in N and have a “per” in the middle. Yeah. That Dopefest. You remember.

Heh heh.

So you wouldn’t complain about your knees, then, huh?

Ooh, I know this one. One further tip:

Lots of lube. Saliva may not be sufficient.

Yep. K-Y is fine. Lotion is actually better IMO.

Also, this works great in the bath or hot tub. Just don’t drown anybody. 😉

Flavored, edible lubricant is of course the optimal solution.

I’ve heard stories of purportedly edible lubes that were quite vile, so I am always wary of trying this. First time for everything, though, I guess.

My last GF and I used an edible pina colada flavored lube/massage oil that also warmed up when you breathed on it. It was FANTASTIC.

Neat. A friend of mine had gotten some from somewhere that was cherry-flavored. I put a bit on my wrist and blew on it, and it did warm. Interesting, but I never did anything else with it or her. Darn people and their girlfriends.

Great for back massages; the warming feeling in the small of your back is quite nice. And also good for, well, you know.

Ooh, I hadn’t thought of that. Next time I give or get a back rub, maybe I’ll try that.

Warning: K-Y warming lubricant tastes really awful. Who sells a “personal lubricant” that tastes terrible? Don’t they know what people in the real world are doing with their products? Silly companies.

Holy crap. I’d LOVE to say stuff like this to speed things up and to turn my husband on, but I’m afraid I’d bust out laughing. How can I learn how to talk dirty without laughing?
