But there was a recent survey of men on the subject: 10% of the respondents said they most enjoyed the sensation, 7% said the got off on the feeling of power, and 83% said the best part was having a bit of quiet time. :D:D:D ---

The trout pout look never did it for me, in fact it tends to “undo” it. I do like a woman with a wide mouth, though. Think Julia Roberts, or Clare Calbraith, Jane Moorsum from _Downton Abbey_. ---

Think Julia Roberts, or Clare Calbraith, Jane Moorsum from _Downton Abbey_. In the same vein as the plumped lips…does the wide mouth make any difference or is it just a fantasy difference? Having a girl with a wide mouth have your thingy in her mouth isn’t really going to make your thingy look or feel bigger, I’d imagine! 🙂 ---

I dated a girl in college with a lucious, bee-string lower lip. The fantasy involved kissing and yes, her lips delivered. Thanks for reminding me. Can’t help you with any other lip action. ---

I really do not understand why you think the plumpness or otherwise of lips would affect the quality of blowjobs. Surely, all the stimulation there happens _inside_ the mouth. Like most other things men think look sexy, plump lips look sexy because they are a visual marker of femininity, one of the many subtle and not so subtle cues, like big eyes, a curving waist, a small nose, or high cheek bones that tell you that this is a woman, and therefore you ought to fuck her. No particular “fantasy” about how big lips might affect blowjobs, or even (more plausibly) kissing, has to be involved. Even big breasts, IMHO, function mainly as a visual cue, and the actual tactual difference they make to lovemaking is trivial compared to the psychological effect their appearance can have on a man (myself very much included). There may often be fantasies about how good those boobs would feel involved in this case, but, in my experience, although the fantasy is not _entirely_ baseless, the reality falls far short. Big boobs do feel nice, but not nearly as nice as they look as though they are going to feel. Knowing that does not at all stop them looking damn good though. They are still yelling FEMALE at you. ---

It might have something to do with an ex-GF who had a mouth like that and who was particularly talented in that field. It also might be because my wife says she can’t open her mouth wide enough to get me deeper without her back teeth causing some damage. And it might just be because I like the look of a wide mouth. ---

You know back teeth are actually to the side, right? Your wife may have very good reasons for not wanting to take you deeper (such as her gag reflex, for one thing) but it has nothing to do with her back teeth, or with the size of her lips, come to that. ---

I do. I mean, let’s not get over the top, but yes, full lips and/or a nice tan line are sexy. What men _don’t_ care about? Designer labels. Most make up, other than lipstick. Super-long eyelashes? Meh. ---

> [@corkboard](#): > > And long fingernails. Well, I don’t like short, esp gnawed on nails. So, yeah, as long as it isn’t too extremes, fine. And as far as lips feeling different? More than half of sex is in your brain. So, if you _think_ it’s hot, then yes, the sex will be better. ---

They look good on your dick. That’s the point. Big boobs don’t really “work” better than small ones, but we loves them anyway! Now, feel old and creepy as you remember [this ad](http://adland.tv/files/imagecache/postimage/media/print/loves-baby-soft.jpg) from your youth…😉 ---

I agree with your first sentence. Guys like the visual of full lips on the dick. In hip hop, there were some that called them ‘dick sucking lips’. ---

Well I’ve heard the boys say one set of plump lips is indicative of another set being equally plump which makes me wonder how far the trouters are prepared to plump and whether men with big feet really do wear big shoes. 😃 ---
