Why is the advice always 'put your finger up their butthole – they will love it!'

As a hitherto exclusively cunnilingual head-giver I feel uncomfortable answering this poll. Certainly my experiences have been good, but I feel I'd need to bite schlong before an accurate self-assessment could form. I shall have to assume my attributes are transferable.

Why is the advice always 'put your finger up their butthole – they will love it!'

because sometimes they do?

free jazz and mumia (sarahel), Monday, 3 August 2009 23:16 (fifteen years ago) link

The thing is the advice suggests the butthole is the magic lock to orgasm magic & your finger is the key...and (conversely) you can get yrself in a lot of trouble if the butthole-owner panics when it is touched.

The moral is: sex advice is not universal (except, I wld say, "ask first" and "say if you don't like something").

a muttering inbred (called) (not named) (Abbott), Monday, 3 August 2009 23:20 (fifteen years ago) link

btw I mean oral sex here either w/a male or female partner, ain't taking sides here

a muttering inbred (called) (not named) (Abbott), Monday, 3 August 2009 23:21 (fifteen years ago) link

exactly ... the butthole thing is presented as universal, similar to "all women love receiving oral sex" ... when it isn't universal.

No way I'm using my regular sn for this one but, I've been told by erm, more than one person, that I gave the best head they ever received so voted "I have been told consistently and sincerely that I am a giver of awesome head". I really enjoy doing it so I think that's maybe why I guess I do it really well? I'm talking fellatio here but I've also gone down on a couple girls although not sure if I'm as skilled at that. I think the reason I enjoy doing it is because it's just amazingly empowering to make someone feel that awesome.

The snapping off is metaphorical, the vice-like clenching is literal, and the soiling of the ceiling is curiously unmentioned.

ENBB, Thursday, 6 August 2009 15:04 (fifteen years ago) link

Now I've got "everybody loves a little headman" stuck in my head and I've been trying all afternoon to get it out.

I don't think I've ever dated a man who didn't somehow believe he was AMAZING INCREDIBLE A#1 at head. And refused to accept the fact that I didn't like it. They'd be all "oh no, you'll LOVE it the way I do it" and then you have to go through the ignomy of trying to figure out... OK, wow, will they be really upset if I tell them that nope, still don't enjoy it - or should I lie and say it's great, which will save their ego, but it means I'll have to put up with that awful horrible snuffling around down there for the rest of the relationship...

Christ. This makes me so not miss sex at all.

haha I believe you, Kate. Frankly, I don't go crazy for blowjobs myself, even though I've had all kinds, both ineffective and extremely effective. Whatever, I'd rather have more time and more full-body contact than just a blown load and a nap. I understand from what I hear that this puts me in somewhat of a minority.

Black bread and Victory gin AGAIN? (kenan), Thursday, 6 August 2009 15:17 (fifteen years ago) link

Wow I am normally not at all shy when it comes to TMI stuff but let's just say I really appreciate the wise poster who logged out before posting on this particular thread.

So will I. Someone else say something. It's not my turn anymore.

Black bread and Victory gin AGAIN? (kenan), Thursday, 6 August 2009 15:21 (fifteen years ago) link

Does that mean you appreciate them because you can identify with their position? xp

I only rarely come from oral, fact fans. Normally there has to be a whole lot of manual action augmenting it. Only truly out-of-this-world oral gets me off, but it's worth it when it happens. Otherwise it's just like wanking (or being wanked) into their mouth and while this is usually still hot'n'happening for both parties, it's not proper fellatio.

cockles (country matters), Thursday, 6 August 2009 15:24 (fifteen years ago) link

This is probably tmi, too, but even if a girl couldn't come from getting head, I'd probably ask her if I could give her some anyway. No cunnilingus would be a bit of a deal breaker for me.

Louis, I think "it's just like wanking (or being wanked) into their mouth" pretty much describes what a blowjob is. What did you think it was? Was it like, "Look ma, no hands!" and bobbing up and down on your dick like a penguin or something? No, that doesn't work for anyone.

Black bread and Victory gin AGAIN? (kenan), Thursday, 6 August 2009 15:40 (fifteen years ago) link

It has actually worked, once. I'm talking about when the hand motions (mine or theirs) are so vigorous they completely outshine the oral aspects. When it's largely the mouth bringing pleasure, a rare delight is discovered.

Black bread and Victory gin AGAIN? (kenan), Thursday, 6 August 2009 15:46 (fifteen years ago) link

It's not a right or a wrong way, just that one feels a bit more organic and natural not to mention pleasurable during the actual act rather than the fruition anyway gah I am no longer in the mood, enough

see, most people, when they watch him play, seem to focus on what he's doing with his hands/arms ... (granted it's the most visible from a standard audience position). A lot of what he's doing are variations of paradiddles and double paradiddles, etc. His kick drum technique is a lot "harder" ... I've seen plenty of drummers that can't do what he does, even with a double bass pedal.

lol, when I first got into Lightning Bolt, I read about how their shows were really insane and really short and I used to try to recreate the atmosphere of being at one of their shows by listening to Dracula Mtn at full volume in my room really loudly with the lights out and jump around a lot until I was out of breath which took around 15 mins, so I have a short but passionate attention span (aka 2hr Hella doc don't seem so intrstng all in one go imo)
