Okay, so I’m watching, um, a documentary about porn, and on comes a scene with the man standing up and the girl on her knees practicing her sword swallowing. Now, call me a lazy bastard, but I’m not going to to stand around in the middle of the room for five seconds, er, minutes to get my BJ. I imagine (quite often, actually) that I’d be leaning up against the wall if nothing else. (Seriously, shouldn’t a _good_ BJ leave you too weak to stand anyway?) So what say you? Do people actually do this, or is it a sexual urban legend, along the lines of the elusive facial? ---

I don’t understand how you could get the blow job to work since the penis curves upward. Unless the blower were quite tall, wouldn’t it just end up putting the penis at an unnatural angle? ---

I used to date girl who had a peculiar habit of deciding to give me oral sex whenever I was standing in the room, on the phone with my mother. She was a pretty odd bird (the girlfriend, not my mother). Anyway, she just kinda crouched or something. Hey, if they’re doing it in porn, it’s gotta at least be possible. ---

My wife given me one while I was shaving once. It worked fine for me. Or sometimes I’ll stand by the bed while she sits on the edge of the bed and that seems to work as well. oh I’m sorry to much information?😃 ---

I’ve given uhm…plenty of blow jobs while kneeling and my boyfriend is standing. He usually helps by _softly_ thrusting forward while I .uhm…perform. I had one boyfriend though who could not do this whatsoever. The minute I’d start he’s get weak in the knees and ask if he could sit down somewhere. \*\* Kayeby \*\* Not ALL penises turn upward. ---

Indeed, mine turne downward. But I’m a freak. FWIW, standing naked in the middle of the room recieving a BJ is my idea of paradise. Only happened a couple of times, though. ---

I started in on an ex one time while he was standing at the sink brushing his teeth. He stopped me after a couple minutes because he had to a) spit and b) sit down. 😃 ---

I was just wondering…why is a facial elusive? I can’t possibly be the only one who’s gotten one and actually requested it. ---

No, it is defininitely not a myth… See, if you only get to be with your SO/stud-muffin one day a week and you spend a good deal of that time in damp forests in a damp English summer/winter and sitting down is not an option…then er… Then the stand up fellatio thing is not a myth and don’t ask me how I know that okay? 🙂 ---

Standing BJs are great and easy to give. I’m kinda tall (5’ 9") so kneeling works just fine. I guess if you’re quite a bit shorter than the guy you may have some problems but nothing that sitting on the edge of the bed won’t fix. I know several women who have given standing BJs. (Women talk about these things you know so there’s nothing weird about me knowing that my friends do this.) 🙂 ---

The “knee trembler” is a very real phenomenon (at least in the plnnr household). ---

There was a gal that I used to work with who’d do that out in the warehouse, in the bathroom, wherever, and quite well I might add. Although, as far as blow jobs are concerned, I can recall the worst one I ever got, and I **loved** it. [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/the-standing-blow-job-porn-myth/94173.md?page=2)
