Oral & Anal Sex / Question
Published: September 26, 2001

Dear TeenHealthFX,

I don't know if this is an ok question to ask-but I have heard of giving a guy a blowjob, but I don't really know what it means and how people do it. Any ideas or advice?

Dear Heard Of Blow Jobs,

 

Your question is fine and that is why TeenHealthFX is here. A blowjob generally refers to stimulating a penis with one's mouth. For more information on the subject you may want to read TeenHealthFX's responses to Clueless on Oral Sex, Boyfriend Asked For Oral Sex, and My Girlfriend Gets Sick Giving Me Oral Sex.

TeenHealthFX's advice to you is that you only engage in sexual acts that you feel comfortable with. Any form of intimacy should be mutually enjoyable for both partners and good communication between both partners is essential. Never let anyone pressure you into anything that you are not comfortable with.

If you make the decision to become sexually active then you need to be aware of safer oral sex and safer sex guidelines. It is a good idea for you to be seen at a local teen health center or your local Planned Parenthood. In northern New Jersey you can call the Adolescent/Young Adult Center For Health at 973.889.6350 for an appointment. Health professionals there can go over birth control options and answer any questions you have on a confidential, low/no cost basis.
