The Lost Art of the Handjob

Handjobs are an Artform

The humble handjob is an oft-overlooked sexual favor. Sometimes, it seems like it may be forever relegated to the realm of innocence and youth. You might think, “Well, I can do that myself!” But you’re missing out, and here’s why.

Handjobs are highly visual.

Similar to blowjobs, you get to see a lot of the action, and that’s part of the fun. Seeing your partner pleasure you is a turn on, and the more you react, the more into it your partner will get. You’d be amazed by just how steamy a handjob can get!

Get to know the penis

Get to know the penis and its surrounding anatomy. You’re going to want to pay particular attention to the frenulum, the band of skin under the head of the penis (which is connected to the foreskin, if the penis is uncircumcised). You can run your thumbs along the just under the glans once your partner gets going. Try working for one hand along the shaft, up and down, and using the other to stroke the glans and the frenulum.

Don’t forget the balls!

For the love of all that is holy, do not forget the balls. You can cup them lightly, give them a gentle squeeze, bounce them (gently!)…

Which brings us to the ‘taint (perineum):

It definitely ain’t nothin’ to be ignored! The perineal sponge is the area between the testes and the anus, and it’s one of the most frequently forgotten erogenous zones. You can apply a little pressure to it, rub it gently, or stroke it with the same speed and force you’re using on the penis shaft.

Start slow

Start slow, especially if you’re unsure, or if you’re trying to work that penis into a frenzy. Slow, steady strokes with just enough pressure will help get things going for most people. Lube is optional, but we would suggest a tiny bit of a silicone-based lubricant to make things smoother and more exciting.

You’re not limited

You’re not limited to a simple up-and-down, either. Sure, there are some foolproof ways to get to orgasm, and every penis has its own favorites. But experimentation is one of the best things about partnered sex because you never know what you’ll discover! The two-handed twist, the Grapefruit Method, light slapping… you just don’t know until you try.

It can be a great warm-up, but it’s also fun in its own right.

Depending on who you ask, a good handjob either should take less than 15 minutes or should be drawn out, like a particularly erotic massage session. Whichever camp you fall into, it can be a mind-blowing experience. Handjobs are a great way to show your partner that you’re ready to focus entirely on them, at least for the time being.
