But the head getting close to the genitals is, in a way, more intimate than letting the genitals do it on their own. Our sensory organs, including the brain, are right down there, and if it happens less frequently in couples as the relationship ages and evolves, it's because it's an act of worship, really. You are worshipping the other person's genitals.
On the other hand, a
lot of this interview with him strikes me as nonsense. I don't buy his excuse that "oral sex drops off as couples age" because the "ardor of worship" wears thin over time. I still love giving head more than almost anything else, but that may just be me.

Date: 2006-06-28 01:01 am (UTC)The alt.sex faq made up my primary jack off material as an adolescent, which led to me actually knowing what the fuck was up (erm, so to speak) when I got to the point where I could play with other people.
Which is how I ended up reading this journal, many years later.
Thank you!
