My personal experience...and we won't talk about how much that might be...is that every guy is different. Or at least they fall into various groupings. A prime example of this is teeth...some guys absolutely hate &/or fear it, some like gentle scraping, and I've even known one who liked fairly aggressive chewing (not to break the skin tho, just firm pressure without any sliding around to cause tearing). A lot depends on their anatomy and psychology. And congrats to you less well-endowed guys, cus you're a LOT easier to blow than your horse-hung counterparts. Can do a lot more tricks when your mouth isn't completely stretched to capacity!
As for breath control, the trick is to time your breathing to when he's pulling back. As long as he's moving in and out for friction there will be a time when your throat is clear, you just have to be ready to take advantage of it. Breath restriction enhances orgasm anyway, so try to go with it. *eg*
privatedesire, new master was right...some guys just don't cum from a blow job and even the ones that do won't always. Heck, I couldn't cum from oral for years either. Even today I have to find the right headspace...the sensation is just too subtle, too much like tickling, for my liking. *shrug* But one very determined ex-boyfriend got me over it eventually (bless his heart) and expanded my horizons. So perhaps for those guys it's just a matter of "training" the response too. And if the guy still has his foreskin, try pulling it back while you go at him. And also try different positions...cus sometimes a guy will get into it more if he towers over you with you on your knees and his fist wound tightly in your hair (purrrrr), but sometimes he can't fully relax and enjoy it if he's standing because it distracts him trying not to fall over when his knees go weak! lol
Driveslikeagirl...there are a lot of men out there who don't care if you swallow or not, in fact I'd say most either don't care at all or only have a preference for swallowing but will certainly not turn ya down over it.And I've run across a couple who do think it's gross. As for ball play, it's a lot like breast play for women...most like it, some a whole lot, some not at all.
And I can't find who posted it, but someone mentioned a guy who liked to slap his penis across her face. My husband loves to do that! I've always found it a little funny myself (humorous funny). Only guy I've ever been with that does it; but I've seen it once or twice in porn, so I guess it's not too isolated of a phenomenon. And if your guy did it too, then I guess that makes mine ever so (very) slightly less weird than I thought he was an hour ago.
Now to go try that raspberries trick on him...Thanks redEva!
