Going "downtown" (performing oral sex on a man) can be a polarizing activity. Some people enjoy it, while others may not. Regardless of how you feel about it, there are some important things that every woman should know about going downtown, from those who are new to it to those who are more experienced. Here are some tips for all levels of expertise:
1. Slobber is good
While it may seem impolite to spit on someone, it can actually be helpful when it comes to oral sex. A wetter mouth can provide a more enjoyable experience for your partner, as a dry mouth can lead to discomfort and an awkward sensation. Adding saliva can help things slide more smoothly and make the experience more pleasurable for both parties.
2. It's different with every guy
There is often debate about whether size matters in sexual encounters. When it comes to oral sex, size can definitely make a difference, but it can vary greatly from person to person. Some men may be easier to pleasure orally due to their size, while others may be more challenging. It's important to remember that every person is different and what works for one may not work for another.
3. You should definitely use your hands
While the goal of oral sex is to stimulate the penis with your mouth, it is not always possible to take the entire penis into your mouth. This is completely normal and there is no need to worry about it. One technique to try is to use your hand to pleasure the penis in conjunction with your mouth. This can provide added stimulation and can be enjoyable for your partner. Remember, the most important thing is for both partners to feel good and enjoy the experience.
4. He'll enjoy being teased
Just as you may appreciate a slow build-up and teasing during sexual activity, your partner may also enjoy this. To add some anticipation and pleasure, try kissing your partner's thighs and the shaft of their penis before fully taking it into your mouth. This can increase the excitement and make the experience more enjoyable for both of you.
5. Licks are good
If your mouth gets tired while performing oral sex, there are ways to mix things up and provide pleasure in different ways. One technique is to use your tongue to lick the entire length of the penis, from the base to the tip. The top of the penis is especially sensitive, so be sure to pay extra attention to this area. To increase comfort for both parties, try using a flat tongue rather than a pointed one. This will provide more coverage and be more enjoyable for your partner.
6. Apply suction without being a vacuum
During oral sex, it can be helpful to use gentle suction to create more contact between your mouth and your partner's skin. This can be achieved by keeping your lips close together and using them to apply light pressure as you move up and down. The suction should occur naturally if you maintain this technique. Remember, the goal is not to actually try to suck anything out of your partner, but rather to use suction as a way to increase pleasure and intimacy.
7. Don't be afraid of the other dangly bits
The testicles, also known as "the little buddies," should not be overlooked during oral sex. To pleasure them, you can try gently massaging or stroking them, using a similar motion to how you might handle small objects like meditation beads. Experiment with different techniques and pay attention to your partner's response to find out what feels best for them. Remember to be gentle and go at a pace that is comfortable for your partner.
8. Ease up when he's coming
As a man becomes more aroused during oral sex, his penis may become more sensitive. It is important to pay attention to your partner's response and adjust your technique accordingly. If you feel that you are applying too much pressure or your partner is experiencing discomfort, try easing up a bit. It's important to find a balance and ensure that both partners are enjoying the experience.
9. Swallow… if you want
Some men may prefer for their partner to swallow semen during oral sex, but it is important to remember that it is your body and you have the right to do what makes you comfortable. There is no right or wrong answer when it comes to swallowing semen. If you are concerned about the nutritional content of semen, it is worth noting that the average estimate is that it contains less than one calorie per ejaculation. Ultimately, the most important thing is for both partners to feel comfortable and enjoy the experience.
10. If you relax, you might enjoy it, too
Like any skill, performing oral sex well may take some practice. If you are unsure about what your partner enjoys, it is always a good idea to communicate and ask for their preferences. They may have a list of favorite techniques or moves that they would like you to try. The most important thing is for both partners to feel satisfied and happy with the experience. Good communication is key to ensuring that everyone is on the same page and able to enjoy the activity fully.
