Autofellatio

Autofellatio is the act of a person performing oral sex on their own penis. Like masturbation, it is a form of sexual pleasure derived from one’s own body without a partner’s involvement. It can also be done as a fetish performance. The interest in autofellatio may be more common in the gay community, where it is seen as a form of self-worship and an expression of body confidence. Autofellatio requires exceptional flexibility as well as a longer-than-average penis. The actual practice of autofellatio, therefore, is likely quite rare. Sex Researcher Alfred Kinsey argued that about 0.2-0.3% of the population would be able to achieve autofellatio. Depending on a person's flexibility and the length of their penis, they may be able to reach the tip of the penis, the glans, or most of the shaft. ### Why People Are Into It For many people who try it, autofellatio can be exciting for its novelty. It is often considered an erotic milestone, because it typically takes practice to achieve. But people's feelings about the payoff are mixed. For some, it can feel more like giving oral sex than receiving it. The physical positioning required for autofellatio can also make enjoying the act even more difficult. Neck and back pain are common and muscle sprain and strain can be an issue as well. Some people also say that the physical contortion required can make it very hard to cum. ### Origins of the Term Autofellatio has a long history. It's not surprising that many creative people over the ages have considered or tried this sexual act. Autofellatio appears in Ancient Egyptian and other mythologies. In 19th century medicine, autofellatio was categorized - along with many other sexual activities, but it wasn't until the 1980s that it emerged in pop culture, when rumors that Marilyn Manson had ribs removed to perform it circulated widely. At this time, many online forums and communities began forming where people encouraged each other and provided advice on how to achieve autofellatio. Porn stars like Parker Woods, who produces a lot of autofellatio-focused videos, provides inspiration as well as tips and techniques. ### Ways to Play: Tips for Trying Autofellatio Most practitioners say it will take at least six months to achieve autofellatio - if your body allows you to achieve it at all. Here are a few tips for making the attempt: - Stretch Daily: Focus on hamstrings, hips, and lower back (forward fold, downward dog, happy baby, and plough pose are helpful). - Increase Core Strength: Try planks, boat pose, and pilates. This helps give you the strength to pull yourself down to the penis. - Experiment: Try different positions. Lying on the back with legs overhead is common, but some people find it easier to sit and use the chair to pull themselves down. - Be Consistent: Remember that you are training your body for a difficult physical task. Improving strength and flexibility takes time, so don't push too hard. Note that back and neck injuries are definitely possible here, which is why taking things slow is important. Most people who practice autofellatio say they take a warm bath and do some basic stretches to slowly loosen their muscles and make the positioning easier.
