Who performs oral sex on their partner? Is it unusual to never do it?

321 replies

How many couples are there out there who do oral sex?

Does your male partner goes down on you?

Do you perform oral sex on them?

My husband and I have never done it. I was wondering if we are unusual not to.

Do most couples do it?

When I see a sex scene in a film, the man often goes down on the woman first. Does this represent sex in most relationships?

I just have no idea, because I don't ask my friends about this.

Mutilating a penis is disgusting. Besides the morality/abuse aspect of doing so without the recipient's consent, having a scarred penis from an accident, that cannot be helped, but deliberately disfiguring it is heinous.

@ConsiderabloiRicherthanYow

What on earth are you on about? I told you my DH was circumcised because he WANTED it done. He chose to have it done, and he had it done privately, and paid for it himself. IN HIS EARLY 20s!

As I said before, it was done 3 years before I met him too, so nothing to do with me. So keep your agenda and your extreme opinions to yourself. My DH CHOSE to have his foreskin removed. It was nothing to do with me, and it certainly has NOTHING to do with YOU!

I reiterate, after having a man for over 25 years who does not have a foreskin, I would NEVER go back.

As I said before, in the past before I met DH, the men I went down on who had foreskins (5 or 6 of them) all stunk. A couple only a bit, but a couple were BLEURGH! I did wonder if I just got unlucky, and several posters have said yes I probably did. Funny how so many women on here don't want to go down on their men though. I wonder if these men have foreskins.......🤔

I reckon whilst a man with a foreskin isn't going to automatically have a stinky dick, he is more likely to have a stinky dick than a man with no foreskin. You would have to be deluded to deny that.

Yeah I can't imagine why anyone would want to do oral sex after being together 41 years. That would put you in yours 60s probably. Oral sex in your 60s or older??? Just no!!!!!!!!!!!! Shock 😆

Fuck off, ageist prick

Your reply made me laugh 😂 (and you're not wrong!)

Been with my DP nearly 10 years and neither of us particularly like it.

Find that hard to believe, never met a man who didn't like it. Isn't it one of the best feeling in the world for them?

LikeWhoUsesTypewritersAnyway · 27/05/2024 22:17

Calm down @CobsNobs I'm entitled to my opinion. The poster I quoted said SHE has been married 41 years and would never do oral now as 'all the bits are not the same anymore.' I don't see you having a go at her though.

As I said, calm down....

And breathe..............

Hope you feel better now. Smile

Mumtobabyhavoc · 27/05/2024 22:22

If I never give another bj again it'll be too soon. 🤮

Mumwithbaggage · 27/05/2024 22:23

@LikeWhoUsesTypewritersAnyway not sure if it's age or just been there done that - very very many times!! You are indeed entitled to your opinion. As am I - I'm 60, dh is 64 and I just don't fancy it any more. Obviously, respect to those who do!

Inastatus · 27/05/2024 22:24

there is no age limit on sexual enjoyment.

EarringsandLipstick · 27/05/2024 22:25

@LikeWhoUsesTypewritersAnyway

But you were being ageist 🤔 it's irrelevant about the other describing their experience.

MrsElijahMikaelson1 · 27/05/2024 22:29

DH loves giving and is good at it, so most times we have sex he will. I don’t enjoy as much giving it but I do as he likes it; but I don’t like him to come in my mouth so he gives me a nudge to stop before I tip him over the edge and I finish with my hand or PIV

brunettemic · 27/05/2024 22:30

I LOVE oral, giving and receiving. There’s just something about it, DH likes it when I hold his head if he’s going down on me and I just love the noises he makes when I’m going down on him. Honestly couldn’t not have it in my (sex) life.

Why not? Men in their 60s can still be fit and sexually active. No smelly dick if they wash, foreskin or not, and everyone should wash anyway.

As for whether women come with PiV or not, I assume it depends on each one's anatomy, whether positions reach the clitoris or G-spot.

I think oral is a pretty common part of relationships, both giving and receiving, but not essential for everyone, and if you're both happy with not doing it, then it's fine. The problems come when one wants it and the other does not.

Thank you @Mumwithbaggage Yeah, I didn't think there was anything 'ageist' about what I said. Just that I couldn't imagine 'oral' after a certain age, and I was responding to a poster who said the same, yet the poster who called me an 'ageist prick' and told me to fuck off, said nothing to that other poster.

And now you have said the same. Over 60 and don't fancy oral. I imagine many other over 60s feel the same. For some reason that poster who had a go at me is very upset by MY comment. I don't know why. It's just the random opinions of someone on a message forum who she doesn't know. Confused (And as I said, she only targeted me.)

If others (over 60) like to give a good BJ, and like to have their man go down on them, then crack on, but I am entitled to feel that I doubt I would fancy it then.

As I said, it's just an opinion of a random stranger. So calm down............ ☮

MintTwirl · 27/05/2024 22:31

Me giving him oral sex is a pretty normal part of our sex life, not every time but it’s something we both enjoy. He is also circumcised and having been up close to many penises with and without foreskins I definitely prefer without when it comes to giving oral.

I don’t like receiving it, I never really have enjoyed it. I had a boyfriend once who bragged that he was amazing at it and that he would change my mind but nope I still don’t enjoy it and it got pretty tedious.

Everyone is different though and I think that as long as both parties are happy then crack on.

adviceneeded1990 · 27/05/2024 22:32

I don’t like to receive. I think it’s trauma based though as my ex was really into giving oral and there’s a lot of trauma from that relationship around sexual coercion. DH just accepts that I don’t like it. He does though and I enjoy giving so works out fine!

What a ridiculous comment, you sound like a 13year old who finds the idea of their parents having sex as a bit ick. Suck it up junior but granny and grandad enjoy sex too. We are both early sixties, married 35years, still like to get it on once or twice a week, and oral pretty much always in play.

Ilovechocolate87 · 27/05/2024 22:34

I used to do it with blokes years ago to impress them, but I hate it.

I probably did it afew times with DH many years ago but not much.
We don't do it now, haven't for years...feels like something younger couples do.If he really wanted to I would only do it if he trimmed his public hair first, wore a condom, and used some flavoured lubricant 😂

It would be begrudgingly though, I certainly wouldn't enjoy it, it would only be for his sake...and the thought of him doing it to make makes me feel gross.

I know he would love it either way though!

Ilovechocolate87 · 27/05/2024 22:36

I just can't get over the hygiene stuff....genitals are dirty places and I think its really gross putting your mouth near that area! 🤢

Lovelybuns · 27/05/2024 22:38

Hi yes myself and hubby love it I like to please him that way and we often do it to each other at the same time

Oblomov24 · 27/05/2024 22:42

Why are you asking?
Some people do, some people don't. Some hate it.
I've always loved it, I am BJ Queen, I give a good BJ. Dh is superb at giving it to me. Some don't like it, so?
