IMO, few things in this world are sexier than oral sex (one of those few things being Harry Styles’s performance at the 2021 Grammys). However! There’s no denying that—whether you’re going down on someone or having someone go to town on you—it’s pretty damn intimate to be all up in someone’s ~private business~ for many minutes at a time. Oral sex may even make you feel straight-up uncomfy, and that’s okay! Even if you fancy yourself a fellatio aficionado or cunnilingus connoisseur (go get that watermelon sugar high!), there’s always room for improving your oral sex game, and we’re here to help.

TAKE THE CHALLENGE

Here’s the thing about giving head: Unless you’re participating in mutual oral sex, like in a 69 sex position, it’s typical that only one person is receiving at a time...which means there can be a lot of undue pressure to perform for the giver as well as some potential self-consciousness from being the center of attention for the recipient. But because oral sex puts both the giver and receiver in such a vulnerable position, it can make you feel that much more connected to your partner—plus, some people (especially those with clitorises) may find that it’s waaay more enjoyable than penetrative sex.

If you’re looking to both go down and eat out like a total pro, then this four-week challenge is calling your name. And we won’t just throw a bunch of tips at you (although there will be concrete advice, of course)—this “challenge” is also about becoming more comfortable with getting vulnerable *and* getting off in the process.

Over the course of this four-week challenge, you’ll learn:

  1. How to feel more confident while performing oral sex.
  2. Specific tips and tricks for making oral sex more pleasurable for you and your partner.
  3. How to feel relaxed and comfortable receiving oral sex so you can fully enjoy the experience.
  4. Which accessories you can use to kick your oral sex game up a notch.

This monthlong bootcamp is designed to help you boost your oral aptitude so that when it comes time to put your techniques into practice, you won’t be left staring down your partner’s genitalia like 😶.
