(NSFW) What's the big deal with swallowing?

Asked by fuglyduckling (412points) July 3rd, 2014

The first time I’ve ever had ‘something’ with a boy I swallowed. Some people think it’s strange that it was my first ever experience and I swallowed! I don’t see the big deal and i wanted to know why swallowing is considered so.

There is no big deal, as granpappy used to say, “Sonny, one swallow don’t make a summer”
He would whistle through most of that, daft old bugger :D

Ah, kids.

Spitters are quitters.

I cannot speak for women, who (in my case) have been doing the swallowing.

But as a male, I see swallowing as an intimate deed, accepting me in a very warm and loving (and sexy) way.

Spitting has the undertone of rejection – I use you and then throw you out.

So swallowing, at least to me, means an intimate sharing and trusting action.

I’ve always seen it as placing the woman in a subservient position. Male dominance fantasy. I’m not into it, personally.

That being said, I recognize that some women might enjoy it and it’s, obviously, different for gay couples.

@cookieman I actually feel quite empowered performing the act. I just turned a big strong man into a puddle of pleasure. I pretty much rock in that moment. You taste it more when you keep it in your mouth long enough to spit it – swallowing it is just a lot less messy.

@livelaughlove21 I’ve always heard it as “Spitters are quitters but it’s cool to drool”. Is this not correct?

It’s just another stereotyped sexual behavior that has no meaning. If you want to swallow, swallow, if you don;t, then don’t.
I have done both in my lengthy sexual history, but, quite frankly, it is not my thing and has nothing to do with whether or not I care about the person. It is not an enjoyable thing and most of the whole swallowing hype is more about a passionate show of sexual frenzy than the fact that semen does not taste good, ranging from bearable to absolutely nasty.

Men need to get over their hangups about whether or not someone wants to swallow their seed. If you’re getting some great head don’t be greedy. lol

@livelaughlove21: If that is your road to empowerment, that is cool with me.

I’m not sure of the tone in your response, @cookieman. Playful or snarky?

@livelaughlove21 – are you finding his @cookieman ‘s comment a little hard to swallow?

This reminds of being about 18 and a scandal in my community at the the time involving an anesthesiologist that was convicted of performing fellatio on his unconscious patients behind the curtain. My friends mother was commenting on the scandal and actually said ” It kind of leaves a bad taste in your mouth.” My friend and I just hit the deck laughing.

@cookieman Well I’m glad it’s cool with you, because your approval is important to me.~

cookieman's avatar

@livelaughlove21: I wasn’t approving or disapproving of anything. Just responding to your response to my original opinion of the OP. Pretty simple.

@trailsillustrated Bleach? Do you bleach the member before going to town in it? lol

^ That would be a serious commitment to cleanliness.

The big deal is:
A. Because it is believed men get more from it than women, thus making it something men do to women in a slave position.
B. The taste (if they swallowed fast it would be better than the nasty taste of beer).
C. The texture (again, swallow fast it would slide down no different than a clam).
D. See top of list and duplicate 5 times more.
