Cunnilingus

The term cunnilingus sounds a little awkward, but it's actually a highly erotic sex practice. You are probably more familiar with terms like licking, tickling the pearl or kissing the yoni. However, all these terms mean the same thing: Oral sex in which the woman is pampered. The word cunnilingus has its origins in the Latin language. It is composed of the terms cunnus for the female pubic area and lingua for the tongue. Now the whole thing makes more sense, right? Since when cunnilingus has been practised is impossible to determine. However, it is probable that mankind has been exploring many ways of gaining pleasure for several centuries, if not for millennia. Therefore, one can confidently assume that pampering the female genitals with the mouth has been known for a very, very long time. However, there are still no fixed rules or specific procedures for licking. It is important to start gently. Every lady reacts differently, and the exact spot where she feels the greatest pleasure can also vary. During cunnilingus, the partner should therefore never concentrate only on the clitoris or push his tongue into the vagina right at the beginning. Arousal in women is a little more complex than in men. And it takes much longer for women to come in most cases, even with fantastic oral sex. Many ladies are thrilled and enjoy it very much when they are stimulated with tongue and lips. But the pleasure-giving partner also enjoys it. Couples like to incorporate cunnilingus into foreplay. No wonder, it is very intimate and exciting for both sides.

There are numerous positions for cunnilingus. For women who are rather inexperienced or particularly shy, the classic lying position is suitable. A little courage is needed if the lady is to spread her legs. A self-respecting lover will certainly pamper his reserved lady to the utmost. Usually, so much so that she soon opens up to him eagerly of her accord. It is also popular for the woman to kneel wide-legged over her partner's face. This gives her the opportunity to control the intensity of the sucking and licking by raising and lowering her pelvis. The man is often particularly turned on by this position. After all, he has a stimulating view and is surrounded by her scent. Have you heard of the “knight's prostration”? This is also a perfect cunnilingus position. The woman sits wide-legged on a chair or the edge of the bed, and the partner kneels in front of her — he does the kneeling, so to speak. In this pose, too, the woman's pubic area is easily accessible and can be stimulated with gentle kisses, teasing nudges or firm tongue strokes.

The use of teeth should be avoided at all costs. The clitoris and labia are covered with thousands of nerve endings and are therefore extremely sensitive. No woman really likes too much spit or wild “digging around”. Otherwise, however, anything that pleases is allowed. By the way, it generally goes down well if you start with gentle kisses and slow tongue movements. As soon as the desire increases, you are usually allowed to increase the pressure or intensity, the tempo and the depth of immersion. If you are new to cunnilingus, you can choose to try out what turns your partner on the most, or you can talk to her about it and simply ask her. Communication is very important in sex in general, and oral sex is no exception.
