Thank you soooo much guys and gals- this has given me much to think about and Milana, thanks for the details of that site, it was a real eye-opener and the whole 'ripped-and-stitched' hang up has been put into perspective. Thank you all!!

Without knowing what exactly the man gets out of administering face-t-fanny (indeed, great term), it's difficult to give an answer. But assuming that he gets turned on by the act itself, as opposed to the hoped-for reaction, can it not just be regarded as an act that gives HIM great pleasure and therefore as a means to stimulating him?

In my younger years, I was all about receiving oral not giving it....but as I have gotten older, I feel so detached from my partner when he is down there. It really is boring to me....& it's not that I haven't had it done right, because TRUST ME, I HAVE! LOL....but I just enjoy other things now, including giving oral....I don't think there is anything wrong with the fact that you don't want it. That's not going to be a reason for him to leave you...just talk about what works & I'm sure you can still have a very fulfilling sex life ;)

Oral has never done anything for me. I feel alone and bored while he's doing his thing. To me it just feel slimey and wiggly. Maybe I've never had anyone "do it right" but I get off quick on most other things, but that's besides the point. The main thing is that after my man realized (I didn't tell him beforehand because I knew he liked to do and I figured I'd play along) I wasn't into it from my reaction, he didn't get that much out of it either.
When we discussed it later, we came to the conclusion that the main reason he liked to give oral with other girls was because of the reaction he got. He gets that from me in other ways, so he has basically given up on it.
My advice is this: if you can at all screw up the courage to do it just once (you will have to both agree to a trial run beforehand. One of three things could happen
1) You really can't get off with oral and he is able to chalk it up to something that just doesn't work for you and move on to discover what it is that does really turn your crank. It's like a treasure hunt, make it a game.
2) You get lost in the moment, get over your self-conciousness and (re)discover something pleasurable and fun.
3) You can't get off (or are too embarrassed to attempt it) and he can't deal with not giving oral. You might have both walk away from the relationship. If it is really something that either of you can get over, then it's not going to change and you may as well both leave on good terms know that you just weren't compatible.

That's my two cents. Take some, all or none of it. Whatever you do, make sure that you are HAPPY!

It does kind of sound like it's not just physiological, it's how you feel about your body -- and really the only thing that can change that is time, to build up trust and confidence.

But also! Cunnilingus is supposed to be the Greatest Thing Ever for women, but...it really doesn't have to be. For two of my friends (that I know of, we don't talk about sex much), it doesn't do anything for them at all, and their partners have just had to get it through their heads. There's no sexual activity that is the *truly* intimate one, or necessary in a relationship, or the *real* way to have sex. You shouldn't feel like your sex life is lacking just because you're not getting oral.

I really sympathise with you. The fact of the matter is that women in every day life very rarely, if ever, see each other's genitals.

What we do see are young women in porn films who all tend to have very neat bald vulva's with miniscule labia. Not many of us looked like that before having kids, let alone after!

I developed a real hang-up about my own fanwa after exposure to porn and it made me self conscious and embarrassed about doing it with the light on, let alone oral!

I was freed from these feelings when I came across the following website:

It isn't porn, it is picture after picture of real women's vulvas. There is an incredible variety of shapes and sizes. We have nothing to feel ashamed about.

I now fully enjoy the delights of oral without a hint of embarrassment, which other half finds a real turn on. I really hope you can find your way there too.

You know, we women should feel proud of our amazing life giving, pleasure giving lady bits!

As a woman, I would encourage you to try to get over whatever "issues" you have with your genitals coming into contact with his face (and you don't mention exactly what you're worried about, so it's a little hard to talk you out of whatever it is).

Suffice it to say, he's experienced your lady bits before and LIKES them, so you shouldn't be worried that he'll get down there and decide that he doesn't like you anymore (unless you forget about personal hygiene for a few days).

If you don't like the sensations he's giving you, explain to him what gets you off and what you could do without. Since he likes going down on you, he shouldn't mind a little instruction, because clearly he would like to see you enjoy yourself.

If you're not sure what really makes you feel good down there, touch yourself alone, touch yourself in front of him, learn what you like, explain your insecurities to him, and if he's the nice sort of guy who likes going down on his partners, he should be excited about all of this and help you get over whatever problems you have with your lady bits (which I'm sure he'll tell you are amazing and sexy, which is why he wants to put his face down there). Good luck!
