Taking it all in

by Dr Patti Britton

question
Dear Dr Patti
My boyfriend has shown an interest in me swallowing during oral sex. I tried once at university with another partner, and have never been sure what to do. Is there a way to do this that we will both enjoy? How do I go about it?
S

answer
Dear S
This issue plagues many women. Often women complain about their partners pressuring them into swallowing. Why do men do that? Perhaps it's the sense of submission to his demands that a man feels when a woman succumbs to him in this manner. Another reason men love this act is the intimacy it represents, and if you and your partner like to explore levels of closeness this is one avenue for doing so. It is an act of giving for a lover to swallow the ejaculate.

Although oral sex performed on men is a popular activity, a recent American survey revealed that while 83% of men found fellatio appealing only 57% of women enjoyed it.

While you seem comfortable with the act of oral sex, you're not alone in disliking the finale. Research indicates that many women do not enjoy swallowing.
