Who doesn’t love oral sex?

It turns out, more people than you may think. In fact, some don’t really think oral sex is all that important in the bedroom.

In a survey of 1,100 people conducted by Superdrug Online Doctor, researchers asked how important blow jobs are in their sexual repertoire, and this is what respondents revealed:

• Extremely important (16 percent men; 11 percent women)
• Moderately important (22 percent men; 26 percent women)
• Somewhat important (35 percent men; 25 percent women)
• Slightly important (19 percent men; 21 percent women)
• Not at all important (9 percent men; 17 percent women)

Not surprisingly, men generally put a bit more importance on oral sex than women did, with about 30 percent of them admitting that they’d rather receive a blow job than have intercourse with their partner. But do they care about swallowing?

Not necessarily.

“When it comes to giving or receiving the best blow job, the secret might not be so mysterious after all.”
