Giving a good blowjob without gagging is a skill that we aren’t born with, we have to learn.
Here are some tips that could help you:
-Alcohol tightens the throat muscles so it’s best to avoid it (especially spirits) if you want to
relax your throat.
-Drinking orange juice can suppress the gag reflex. If you feel like you’re going to gag when
you’ve got a cock in your mouth – swallow. Don’t worry, it won’t go down.
-Breathe through your nose. Exhale before taking his cock in your mouth. It will increase your
oral capacity by about 33%.
-Flatten your tongue. Say “mmm” or “aaah” to relax your mouth beforehand (you may want to
do this quietly or he’ll probably think you’re a bit weird).
-Take the cock into your mouth slowly and allow your throat to relax around it. If he tries to
force it in, you’ll gag for sure.
-You’ll find it easier if you have plenty of saliva. If your mouth feels dry, have a glass of water
handy.
-Don’t just use your mouth – use your hand as well. You can use your hand as a stopper to
ensure that you control the amount of cock you take, as an improvised cock ring to keep him
really hard, to wank him as you work him, or to play with his balls, arsehole, nipples or perine-
um (the area between his balls and arsehole).
Giving someone a blowjob is fairly low risk for HIV [2]. You can reduce the risk even further by
avoiding getting cum in your mouth – there are probably only a very few cases where some-
one has caught HIV without ejaculation into the mouth. Transmission from an HIV-positive guy
with an undetectable viral load is unlikely. You can pick up other STIs from sucking cock, such
as chlamydia, gonorrhoea, syphilis or herpes, and infections in your throat can be less likely to
have symptoms, so it’s worth getting regular sexual health check-ups. If you wanted to reduce
the risk even more, you’d have to use condoms when you suck cock.
