Oral sex or oral-genital sex means both mouth contact with the vagina, which is called cunnilingus, and mouth contact with the penis, which is called fellatio. Cunnilingus comes from a Latin word for vulva (a woman’s exterior sex organs), cunnus, and from the Latin word for licking, lingere.

Oral sex is when the mouth, tongue and/or lips are used to stimulate the genitals. The official term for oral sex on a woman is cunnilingus; on a man, fellatio. Common slang terms for oral sex include “giving head,” “going down,” “blow job” (on a man) and “eating out” (on a woman). The term “69″ means simultaneous oral sex.

The only entirely safe way to perform oral sex on a man is by using a condom on the penis. Some condoms are flavored for this purpose (chocolate and mint in particular). And the only entirely safe way to perform oral sex on a woman is by using a “dental dam” on the vagina.

A dental dam is a square piece of thin latex that is sometimes used in dental procedures. They are available at dental and medical supply stores. A homemade dam can be made by splitting a condom lengthwise or cutting a piece of plastic wrap (though plastic wrap is not necessarily effective against HIV).

Oral sex can be very pleasurable for both people involved–both on the receiving and the giving end. It can continue through to orgasm (generally for the person receiving) or not.
