Teenage girls say giving head feels
like a lot homework. They have so
much performance anxiety surrounding
the experience.
They don’t enjoy but go ahead because it’s expected
of them. Boys bully them into going down.
It wasn’t like that in my day.
I never liked doing homework.
Having to spend all day at school,
then go home to do more work
wasn’t my idea of pleasure.
I’d rather chase boys, talk about boys, hang
out with boys, freak out about boys, and sneak
into boys’ dorms to do dirty things with them
rather than conjugate Latin verbs.
Many activities other than vaginal sex, including
oral sex, are expressions of human sexuality.
There is some ambiguity in what behavior teens
identify as “sex” or “abstinence.Only about 20
percent of university students considered oral-
genital contact to be “sex.”
Among a sample of teens aged 14-19, roughly 70
percent agreed that someone who had engaged
in oral sex was still a virgin.
About one in seven teens who have not had sexual
intercourse report having ever engaged in oral sex
with an opposite-sex partner (15% of males and females),
Oral Sex
Is Safe Sex
More teens engage in oral sex than in vaginal sex,
and oral sex often precedes vaginal sex.
This is likely because teens consider oral sex to
be more acceptable and to have fewer consequences
––health, emotional, or social––than vaginal sex.
In fact, a substantial minority of teens are completely
unaware of any health risks associated with oral sex.
This perception of low risk is one reason teens give
for why they engage in oral sex. However, the most
common reasons listed by them for engaging in oral sex
were as follows: for pleasure, to improve their relationship,
and for popularity or their reputation.
Very Intimate:
Fellatio & Cunnilingus
How Intimate
Is Oral Sex?
“What is it about Americans and la pipe?” my French friends ask me. La pipe is French slang for fellatio or the common-or-garden blow-job.
Young Americans don’t consider oral sex to be “real” sex. They see it as a stop-gap measure on the way to intercourse. They don’t think it’s intimate the way we do in France.
But it is so intimate! Parce que c’est. It’s “in your face!”
The “base” system is the dominant framework used by American teens. It privileges vaginal intercourse over everything else.
In the bases framework, oral sex happens before intercourse, and it’s simply a stop on the way to the main event. It’s foreplay, not sex. And it’s good, but it’s not as good as the home run.
French teens consider oral sex as real sex. For them, oral sex and intercourse are by and large equal. It’s a sexual act of the same seriousness as penetration. Maybe even more intimate.
When you go to bed with a guy for the first time, you don’t necessarily give him a blow job. That can even often come later, after intercourse.
This order of sexual behaviour makes sense because of the French perception that oral sex is far more intimate than intercourse.
French kids will often have sex with someone they don’t
know very well but they only do oral sex with people
they really like. It’s up close and personal.
Americans could benefit by taking a page out of the
French book. If they could work toward a new sexual
framework, a way of thinking about sex that doesn’t
treat intercourse as the be all and end all, we’d be
a healthier, more equitable, and perhaps a more
sexually satisfied people.
We’re looking at a overhaul here. It means a radical
re-thinking of sex, not just a re-classification of
the blow job.
I think the French have got this one right. Oral sex i
s real sex. It ought to be seen as such. We need to
do away with the base system, or at least with the
idea that intercourse is the most superior form of
sex, the “home run,” the ultimate way to score.
Done properly, it’s the kind of shift that could
make America a healthier and sexier place.
Treating blow jobs as a form of contraception exposes
outdated attitudes towards sexual pleasure.
Drive Him Wild
Every girl wants to drive her man wild in the bedroom.
What’s hotter than sexing a guy so good, he has to go
live in the woods because he doesn’t know
how society works anymore?
There’s nothing like pushing a guy past what
he can psychologically handle so that he lives
the rest of his life as an invalid.
Pluck the sanity right out of your man’s
frontal lobe with these scorching tips:
1. Put his cognitive abilities on ice.
Slip an ice cube into your mouth before going down
on your man for a powerful sensation that’ll knock
him back to the cognitive abilities of a toddler.
You’ll send an icy-hot shiver up his spine that will
make its way to his brain and ruin it forever.
2. Two-hand twist his shaft and his reality.
The next time you go down on your guy, twist your
hands in opposite directions along his member.
This move won’t only give your mouth a break
and increase his pleasure; it’ll also make him
feel so good, he’ll be completely disoriented
and terrified of what is happening.
3. Remove his ability to reason with mid-coital Kegels.
Spice up any cock-in-cunt encounter with a tight squeeze!
He’ll be moaning for more, for his mother and for
his commanding officer.
This sensational “hug” will have him thinking
he’s back in ‘Nam. He never even went to ‘Nam!
He’s in fucking heaven.
4. Imprison him in his own mind with a humming blowjob.
Humans have evolved to fear buzzing sounds, as they
can indicate an earthquake, a cloud of insects, or an
orgasm so intense it shatters your mind into a million pieces.
When you’re giving him a blowjob, simply start
humming any tune. Hum louder and louder. It’ll
be the last song he hears before becoming completely
locked in for the rest of his life.
You know, locked in? Where someone is conscious but
can’t move or communicate at all? You get it!
5. Stroke his prostate until he has cardiac arrest.
It’s well into the new millennium, and straight guys are
evolved enough to enjoy a little backdoor action.
Carefully insert a finger inside him until you feel
a little walnut-shaped knot, and stroke it back
and forth until half his face permanently collapses
into an emotionless shell.
Even years of electroconvulsive therapy won’t
rewire the severed connections in his brain.
