Gender Equality for Going Down?
I’ll admit it, I love reading sex advice. More specifically, I love reading the ridiculousness that people are calling advice targeted towards women and I truly hope that no woman reads most of this shit and actually takes the “advice” given.
Here is the most recent thing I’ve read that I literally wanted to take the writer by the throat and shake them.
“I hate giving blow jobs, but my boyfriend loves them. How can we compromise?”—Not Into Head, via email
And here’s the answer:
“I don’t mean to sound harsh (well, sometimes I do), but stop being selfish. No girl is ever like “OMG OMG it’s blowjob time!! Yaaaayyyy!!”, but we realize that it’s something that gets our guy off. And that’s what should turn YOU on.”
Yes, women who don’t enjoy the lovely lockjaw feeling that is acquired when going down on some guys (Don’t get your hopes up, guys, it’s only some of them) and I am also willing to bet that most women don’t necessarily enjoy the taste of wet garbage in their mouths that is acquired when going down on most guys (Yes guys, most likely you.)
To tell a woman that she is selfish because she doesn’t want to suck dick and then following up with “The only compromise I can tell you is that if your man is going down on you, then you should go down on him.” is bullshit. This writer is telling women that by not going down on her man she is selfish, but a compromise would be for him to reciprocate? Why is sucking dick a standard when going down on a woman is a compromise? If going down on your boyfriend, husband, fuck buddy or what have you, is supposed to turn you on, then don’t you think it should turn him on to give you oral pleasure; I mean, using common sense here, you would naturally think that–But that is not the ’socially acceptable’ answer. Why, exactly, is it socially acceptable to think that all women should go down on men but the men are by no means required to reciprocate? Oh, that’s right, because the sexual pleasure of women does not matter, or if you’re most of the male population, it does not exist.
Here’s my advice for Not Into Head:
Feed your man an entire pineapple (it makes his cum taste a lot sweeter and gives an all around more pleasant experience to him ejaculating), take your pants off, point out where your clitoris is (because sadly, women’s anatomy is lost on most men and your clit is most often two inches over from where he thinks it is) and tell him that you will reciprocate once he gives you sexual pleasure. Remember ladies, you are equals no matter what bullshit your man is trying to feed you and that applies to all facets of life–In and out of the bedroom.
