wrap both hands around his penis & rotate them in different directions, like you're giving him an indian rug burn. it probably wouldn't have been as bad if they had mentioned using lube... which they didn't.

I find it entertaining to flip through every now and then for a laugh, but I'd never read it religiously. I can't say I'm a fan of how much focus they put on "massaging" a guys ass. I'm pretty sure if I ever tried that I'd get knocked out. lol

Actually I did this with ice one time and my boyfriend really liked it. I didn't keep the ice in my mouth while going down on him though, just before hand so that my mouth was cold. He said it was a shock but that the temperature change was fun. It was also nice for me because I could get a drink of the ice when I was cooling my mouth back down. I think he would have hated it if I still had the ice in my mouth, though.

omg i was just going to say that. LOL i talked to a few guys about that and they said that was a terrible idea

those poor guys who they did try it on owch

...yup.

I am so happy I found this thread! I hate Cosmo so much because it really is just a magazine catering to men and their pleasure, and their sex tips are horrible!

I remember seeing suggestions to use boby pins as nipple clamps, wrapping a warm washcloth around a guys shaft and using the "indian rug burn" technique, as well as kissing the area between a mans scrotum and ass hole.

I know lots of men find pleasure and enjoy ass play with their partner, male or female, but that is a conversation you need to have with him before you do anything. Cosmo never suggests speaking with your partner, just ambushing him with sticking fingers up there, with no idea if that is something he is open to.

It's also pretty frustrating that they don't educate readers on the harmful effects of glycerin and sugars in the vagina and how it can lead to infections. And that it never really suggests the inclustion of lubricant. I don't find it a liberating womens magazine at all. It is offensive to both men and women, and hurting peoples sex lives more then helping it really.

What she said. Majority of them are really bad tips. I think we tried the whole frozen grapes (or ice) trick. The twisting both hands in different directions I have actually seen on the Penny Flames Expert Guide to Handjobs. She used lube at least.

Oooh... for temperature play I guess. I agree that it would be tricky to actually do that.

Heh! I read that one too. After I read it, I couldn't figure out how they would explain to my parents that my guy had literally crushed my head between his thighs when I tried that move... That one.... ridiculous!

Freudian bullshit. That's ... you say you're *not* joking?

And ... what if he's not big enough to fit both hands around?

Well, the point is to pinch just between his actual eggs. Nothing hard, just a gentle squeeze. But as far as I'm concerned, it's probably better to START with that kind of thing. Ambushing a guy's sac right before he comes ... yeah. No.

Well, I guess the lube situation kind of depends on the age of the guy and his religion. Like, if he's older than, say, thirty or Jewish or Muslim, he's probably going to be cut. But if not, you don't need lube to give a handjob. The foreskin acts as a decent cover. I have, on the other hand, had much success gently using my teeth while blowing a guy who was wearing a relatively thick condom. And, of course, if it's not skin-to-skin (or skin-to-latex-to-skin) then you have to bite anyway. Pulling pubic hairs? I've never met anyone who likes that. But most guys I know are shaved, so ...

Is there something I can do for you? Anything? I think you deserve a favour of some kind for saying that. Thank you.
