On balls – what do you do with them when you’re giving a blow job?

Image by the excellent Stuart F Taylor

Gentlemen, a word. I know that you all have varying degrees of love for your bollocks. Some guys gain exceptional enjoyment from their balls, and will grab, stroke and jiggle them not just during masturbation but at any time of the day when they think no one’s looking. Other guys crack miserable jokes about them, embarrassed by the wrinkled and sexually unappealing nature of the scrotum and all that it contains.

But however you feel about them and whatever you know, bear in mind that if you’re having sex with a lady she knows even less. What I’m saying here is that I’d like you to tell me – in as much detail as your vocabulary will allow – what you would like me to do with your testicles.

My first ever blow job

The first time a boy was kind enough to let my drooling horny mouth anywhere near his dick, was an understandably tense one. For the record, I was squatting awkwardly next to a tree, trying my hardest to hold on to at least one of: my dignity, my balance, or his cock. I didn’t put a hand anywhere near his balls. I’d read and heard that guys usually like it if you play with their balls while you’re sucking them off, but actually grabbing them seemed a bit advanced – like taking an A-level before you’d sat a GCSE. I barely knew how hard to suck, let alone how much pressure to put on the most pressure-sensitive part of his body.

Older me has discovered a few different things that some guys like having done to their balls.

Gentle testicular fondling

You know what I mean – the kind of simple manipulation that you might use to move Chinese worry balls, for instance. Hardly any pressure, gently running the balls around in your palm through the scrotum until he either says ‘mmm’ or ‘oh no, that doesn’t really do it for me.’

Stroking the balls

If the above doesn’t do it, perhaps stroking will. The key difference here is that you’re focusing on the scrotum rather than the balls themselves. Delicate touches on the outside of the scrotal sack. I’m sorry for getting into such explicit detail, but if your Grandma is reading this over your shoulder, it might be best to close the browser window now.

Licking/sucking the balls

Pretty much the same as both of the above, but done with the mouth. Fun though this is for me (not only do I have a large mouth, I am also keen to rise to the challenge of getting both in at once. You can practise this at home with a couple of Cadbury’s Creme Eggs), there are a few gentlemen for whom this is either unnecessary or actively unpleasant.

Tying shoelaces around the balls until they throb with sexual agony

I’ve mentioned this before in my boywanking post, but this is one of the few things I’ve tried that has elicited a genuinely orgasmic reaction.

Squeezing them a bit too hard

Not hard enough that his chances of having children are hindered, but hard enough that he makes one of those delightfully angry-pained faces, and begs you to let him come. Unfortunately, as with the previous entry, it’s clearly a niche and specialist taste, and one which requires active discussion beforehand. If you surprise a man by squeezing his bollocks, don’t be surprised if he calls the police.

Stamping on balls in stilettos

No one has ever asked me to do this, but I hear that – like animated gifs and Gangnam Style – there are plenty of people I’ve never met who think it is amazing.

So there you go. An almost (but perhaps not quite) exhaustive list of things that some guys like having done to their bollocks. But here’s the problem: I don’t have bollocks. I therefore have absolutely no idea how any of this feels. So I don’t think I’m unreasonable when I ask you for some guidance.

Although you might moan with pleasure when I take the head of your dick into my mouth, or give a satisfying grunt when I shove something solid and prostate-stimulating up your arse, very rarely has a guy moaned or sighed or given me a high-five when I’ve done anything in particular to his nads. I’m not saying I need a high-five, of course, but what I am saying is that I need some hints. A gentle hand over mine showing how firmly you’d like me to squeeze, a short description of something you do to yourself that feels nice, the odd moan of ‘that’s it’ when I’m doing something that isn’t actively annoying.

I can be giving you the time of your life and it doesn’t matter a jot if you’re lying there enjoying it silently. Your cock tells me when I’m doing good things to it – by twitching, throbbing, growing harder, or squirting spunk against the back of my throat. But your testicles don’t speak the language of love quite so loudly. If there’s no obvious reaction from you then I’ll just end up lying there with half a scrotum in my mouth, holding a questioning thumbs-up in the hope that you’ll give me a hint.

Please don’t be shy, boys. I need that hint when I’m giving a blow job. I need that thumbs up. I need you to make some noise. And just as you need me to cry ‘oh fuck that’s amazing’ when you hit the sweet spot, I need you to tell me what the fuck to do with your balls.

    On balls… I have one of these somewhere that hasn’t seen any action since I lost the allen key for it:

    http://www.temptationsdirect.co.uk/x/6359/Buy/Stainless-Steel-ballstretcher-150g.html

    It’s just a ring that fits around the top of the balls and well, it’s just heavy. Feels weird, amazing to shag with it on because when the balls tighten up this thing completely changes how it all feels.

    You can use it as a long-term ball stretching thing, but personally I think short term shagging & wanking use is way more fun.

  • Girl on the net says:

    Ah, am sorry rachel and M – pipped to the post. But I will be sure to run other spurious Twix-related competitions in the future =)

    And thank you rachel – glad you liked it!

  • ExhibitA says:

    Ah, a subject about which I have strong feelings! As far as I’m concerned, this is one where all those ‘how to give the perfect blowjob’ articles in Cosmo/More/etc have done both men and women a gross disservice. My balls are sensitive, they’re easily-harmed, and if you try to take them in your mouth and make popping noises, or to give them a ‘sensual’ squeeze/yank, I will look at you in the sort of way that only a Cosmo ‘sexpert’ could conceivably interpret as anything other than murderous. Yes, it hurts; no, it’s not sexy; and if you want to keep hold of that ‘access all areas’ backstage pass, please please don’t do it again.

    THAT SAID: shoelaces, yes; ditto those combo cock/ball-rings, or various other improvised devices that loop round/over/between my balls, without actually applying the sort of direct pressure that makes me want to cry. And yes to stroking or licking, though if I’m honest I’d rather you did those things to my cock instead (and sometimes that’s the point).

    In short, you’re right to flag this up as an area where communication is key: one man’s ‘fingers-down-the-chalkboard-detumescence’ is another man’s ‘heaven-and-back’, I suppose. From my point-of-view though, my balls are the ultimate red herring: kiss my neck, stroke my back, scratch my chest, and finger my arse, but if you want to keep the production going, make sure no testicles are harmed in the making of it.

  • Appleboy says:

    How big are your stilettos?

  • Mof says:

    This is all pretty good. I’d add that there’s enough of us who like what can only be described as having the scrotum tugged at. You can be pretty rough with it.

    Someone once almost fingered the base of my dick through my balls which was pretty cool too.

    Then, there’s all manner of lotions and such to stimulate that whole area.

    I’m probably quite boring when it comes to my balls. They are VERY sensitive to pain. (and not in a good way) I do like the feel a fingernails gently stroking them. (not in a scratching itchy balls kind of way, although that’s pleasurable too, or we wouldn’t do it so often) Just running your fingernails down my cock, across the balls, then underneath and along the perineum. And if you want to put a finger in my arse too, that’s even better.
    My balls are very sensitive to temperature too, so anything that feels warm is good. Warm hands cupping them, warm breath and lips kissing them, and warm tongue licking them.

  • Kitty says:

    I think you’ve already worked out the most important point, which is “different strokes (hur hur) for different folks.”

    I’d perhaps suggest that as a general rule of thumb, ‘don’t sweat it’ might serve you well. For me, the whole area is “nice”; if you asked me if I’d like you to play with my balls I’d answer “hell yeah,” but I’m never going to get off on it, it’s just nice.

    In my head, I imagine the scrotum is equivalent to your outer labia in terms of sensation, though how accurate that is I don’t know as (obviously) I don’t have a pussy. Mapping girl bits to boy bits helps me work out what to do cos then I can think “how would that feel to me?” (as a starting point anyway).

  • MD says:

    I’m with CBB – just a gentle stroke will do though that will still make me a bit nervous unless ground rules have been established and I know where you’re going with it.

    Put simply, they are amazingly sensitive – but not in a good way. And the problem with that – speaking as someone for whom pain is generally to be avoided – is that apart from very gentle fondling, anything else is a turn-off.

    Sorry.

  • P says:

    A nice cold pair of hands, one around the balls and one base of the cock. Maybe an ice cube in the mouth just teasing the head of the cock. No hard squeezing or pulling, what ever you do if your doing it right you will see them lift and twitch just like a cock moves as its being teased.
    Try getting the man to stand legs apart so balls free to move, run a soft hand up his inner thigh and maybe just touch the scrotum randomly every now and then see if you can make them twitch :)

  • Hyacinth says:

    I’m actually an enormous fan of balls. I love their weird, alien sac and the “worry-ball” feel in my hands (and mouth, if I’m lucky enough).

    I know I’m in the minority. I’m just kinda obsessed with the male body.

  • N. Likes says:

    I thought I had commented days ago, but, evidently, not so much.

    Thank you for this.

    I’m one of those guys who wants his balls approached VERY gently, and then, only held, or maybe tickled. NO pressure, NO squeezing, NO sucking. If you do any of those things, I’m liable to punch you. Seriously.

    Who the fuck told women that they should do those things without clearing it with us first?

  • I stay away from the shoelaces … but I have one hell of a time with ribbon. Amazing what you can do with ribbon :) Mind you, only one of my partners like that. Hooray for communication – the rest (those with bollocks, that is) prefer that I stick to licking and mouthing and whatnot.

  • Ash says:

    I can’t attest to how it feel EXACTLY as I am without a pair of my own, though I do get to play with my boyfriend’s quite often and he LOVES it when I play with his boys. I run my fingernails around them. Massage. Squeeze. Suck. Gently nibble. He goes crazy when I take one in my mouth and suck on it a little roughly while stroking his cock up and down.

    Apparently some of the men above have quite sensitive balls and don’t like them to be touched much. I can’t say my boys balls are any less sensitive but he does like them to be played with: lying on the bed, sitting on the couch, under the table at a restaurant, etc. Any time I have the opportunity to touch his balls, I do.

  • riz says:

    My ex used to play with my balls while riding me…for some reason it would drive me mad, they were so sensitive. It was a beautiful thing.

  • Anonymous says:

    *Puts my Domme hat on* : Slapping and pulling them, ditto for his cock, then watch how hard he gets. yum

    (precaution: start soft with new boys or be prepared for a kick in the face)

  • Rosemary says:

    I’ve handled quite a few testicles (I love that word!) in my 29 years and generally don’t find them to be as delicate as guys would have us think. Yes, I know we can bring you to your knees in agony with a hard blow or render you helpless with pain with a firm squeeze (very empowering!…every girl should try it once!), but gentle to moderately firm handling is not usually painful for him. In fact, if you need him to cum and he’s having trouble finishing a fairly hard squeeze will normally get him there. Guys seem to be prepared to suffer achy balls after an orgasm if it means they don’t have to suffer blue balls if they don’t cum

  • kre8tor says:

    There are a lot of guys that like things a little rougher on their balls than most. Not the extreme stuff. I am 60+ and a short while ago during a sex party a woman carefully garbed my balls and slowly pulled down away from my body as she was sucking my cock. I was not sure what she was doing ans got scared. The longer she sucked the harder she pulled and I got to be ok with it. When I came she pulled as hard as she could and by now my balls were aching. I shot more than ever and she let go slowly. She did this every time she was with us that weekend. I had slightly sore balls all the next day and it made me recall everything we all did together. Since then I have had the wife do it but she is like the original writer some what fearful. Let me tell you if anyone actually hurt the berries I have told them and they let off but I do like it and I never would have thought I would. So…each person can have many varied and even new thing they like sexually so go for those that do not bother you. Just help each other enjoy the fun!

  • Sarah says:

    Okay, so never do anything unsolicited to balls but…

    I discovered early on that balls have to be pulled up into the body in order for a guy to come, so applying very very gentle downward pressure to them as your hand / mouth is sliding up the cock, then releasing as you go down, repeatedly, works very well on every guy I’ve tried it on. The pressure permitted varies on course.

    Nails gently tracing over the scrotum, especially when slippery and warm, is also always a hit :)

  • Heather says:

    I’m a 42 year old female and my lover is a young guy of 21…every time I suck his dick he wants me to pull on his balls while I deep throat his cock…kinda hard too

  • Peter says:

    I have always felt that my balls wernt ole great giver of pleasure as I was lead to believe, I thought they were meant to enjoy the same sensations as a cock. My partner tried licking and stroking them, and it wasn’t bad, but not much pleasure was had. I wonder if a lot of men say nothing much at this point, like me, we are confused at lack of much going on.

    I seem to have figured them out more since though, my balls feel like the amplifier of what happens to my cock. Cupping the balls close to my body stops them swinging about and impacting on me, and the lack of distraction there plus the feeling of them being in a ‘ready to come’ position makes every sensation in my cock feel better. Wanking myself off over my partners tits feels better than if she was sucking my cock, when her hand cups my balls to me.

    Far better still is when she presses hard against the bit just below my scrotum. Everything feels better with pressure there. Our new favourite thing is to have her lick there as I wank myself to orgasm over my chest. The licking alone doesn’t do much, but it makes every stroke along my cock feel so much better.

    So that’s balls, more amplifier for sensations rather than a giver of them. At least for me.

  • Bee says:

    My guy has very large, verrrry hairy balls, I am NOT putting those in my mouth! ;D They are also very sensitive, so if I did anything to them he’d probably yelp.

  • Cara says:

    I’ve been told that a well-shaved scrotum is a passport to paradise – particularly when sucked. It certainly seemed so at the time…

  • Jess says:

    Right, can someone please explain in careful detail, with scanned diagrams if possible, how this shoelace thing works? Because I suspect I’ll only get one shot, and I’m no Girl Scout.

  • Craig says:

    I am a guy who enjoys firm pressure on my balls. The visual aspect of watching your testicles pop into your girls mouth is unreal. I like the gentle pain and sense of vulnerability that wash over me. It would be unreal to have two balls in at once but I’m big and she’s got a sensitive gag reflex.

  • Louise says:

    Lately when I blow my husband, he has been holding his balls up against his cock. We’ve been married for over 10 years and he just started doing this in the past couple of months. If anyone can shed some light I’d appreciate it…i just have a few questions. Does this mean I’m not doing a good enough job any more or has he just discovered something new or could it be that he is just getting older and maybe losing his sensation or drive or something? Why did he start doing this all of a sudden? I guess I’m kind of worried another women showed him or told him about this…is it possible he learned this on his own? Also, how does doing that increase the pleasure? Thanks so much for any thoughts or comments.

    • S4 says:

      It sounds like he’s presenting them to you… have you tried asking him him? 10+ years is a long time to share a bed with someone without talking about what you each like, or maybe you established those things when you first got together/married and have fallen into a routine? As we get older we change and our desires/needs/wants/sexual preferences change too.. maybe he discovered something he enjoyed when having a wank and wants to share it with you but doesn’t know how to verbally bring it up? Lord knows I can empathise with the awkwardness of bringing up the conversation of “So what do you like in bed?” My man doesn’t really know how to talk about what he likes and because he’s so… well…. vanilla, I find it difficult to bring the subject up because it ends up feeling awkward. Example of our conversations in the past:
      *Snuggled up all cosy and post orgasm*
      Me:”So, what do you fantasise about when I’m away?” [I have a stupid job that takes me away for months at a time]
      Him: *shrugs* “I dunno… You(?)”
      Me: “Just Me? Cool, do you think about doing anything in particular with me?”
      Him: “Just.. sex”
      Me: “Is there anything in particular you’d like to do with me?”
      Him: “Urrm, not really, I just love you and being with you” *Snuggles me*

      Bringing up the details of how I’d really like him to handcuff me to the bed and play with my ass for a few hours until I’m able to accommodate his cock in there doesn’t feel very balanced at that point… But sometimes, I just have to share a snippet of my fantasies with him, and he’s not actually adverse to the idea, he’s just really shit at/embarrassed about talking about it!

  • Karen says:

    This thread reminds me of a position called the “bucking bronco” which I’ve read about.
    Apparently you sit astride the guy facing his feet. and slide up and down on him until you’re both ready to cum.
    You then get a firm grip on his balls, one in each hand, and proceed to squeeze the shit out of them!
    He cant get to you to stop you and start bucking about due to the pain. If you can stay astride him long enough you are guaranteed to cum brilliantly.
    I haven’t got around to trying this yet, but it sounds fantastic and might be just the thing for make-up sex following a row LOL

    • Girl on the net says:

      Oh my God that sounds terrible and abusive. Please don’t ever do this to a guy unless he’s expressly said he’s into this kind of pain.

  • Garry says:

    I think every guy is different, so proceed carefully and ask if you are not sure. Personally I find sucking to be painful and scary. Light tickling with fingernails makes me squirm and giggle. Gentle tugging is intensely erotic, and just cupping them softly while gazing into my eyes and smiling makes me feel profoundly safe and loved. YMMV

  • chris says:

    I like my balls completely destroyed. The pain is tremendous. No girl would do it but dayum it would be a great feeling to have a girl stand on them with bare feet.

  • ivan says:

    when my GF pinches the skin with her fingernails while wanking or sucking me it makes me cum very quickly. the trick is to just pinch the surface of the scrotum alternating between different unexpected places and gradually increasing the pressure. whereas squeezing the balls is an instant turnoff for me.

  • RIC CARTER says:

    My neighbor Dixie was the first to ever suck my balls completely inside her mouth when we were teenagers. She was, and probably still is the best cocksucker I have ever had. I’m pretty sure she practiced on her brother at home.
    I didn’t take another man’s balls in my mouth until I was about 62. I found it is something I enjoy, as long as they are shaved. It takes some work for a man with big balls to get them both in my mouth, but the sensation of having them sucked is worth it to the men.
    Balls are tough. I’ve had cock and ball torture done. Slapping, pulling, pierced with multiple needles, castration play. It’s just another way to enjoy sex.

  • Kayla says:

    My hubby is a big fan of having his testicles sucked. With quite a bit of experience, I have a couple more tips to add:

    A. I have him shower or bathe right before, as is the usual. The hot water makes his testicles hang lower and they’re easier to get into my mouth when he’s laying down.

    B. Some people have said to make sure he shaves his scrotum. While I agree, I’m adding a high recommendation that he removes all of his pubic hair. Let me explain. His scrotum has so much surface area, and it borders everything down there. I do a lot more than just “sucking his testicles” the entire time. Throughout the act, my tongue incidentally covers his whole scrotum and the areas that border it (so, literally everything):

    1. When I begin by focusing on the top of his scrotum, my tongue hits along the underside and side areas of his penis. My nose and face are right smack at the base of his penis, so it’s best if he removes not only the hair underneath and along its sides, but also remove all of the hair above his penis. My nose doesn’t get tickled, and my tongue has some leeway to stray off-course to that sensitive place.

    2. The sides of his scrotum touch against where his legs meet his body and his upper thighs. Again, removing all of this hair gives me some wiggle room around his scrotum, and there’s no tickling by having my face against his thigh.

    3. When moving on to the actual testicle play, I’m also sucking in the back of his scrotum, not just the front, so his scrotum should be completely hair-free front and back.

    4. The back of his scrotum connects to his perenium. When I suck in his testicle all the way, my bottom lip is right against that area. Tongue movements at this point, without a doubt, come into contact. Remove that hair to give your tongue some options to explore yet another sensitive area.

    5. Finally, his perenium really is a tiny area spanning only like an inch or two from the back of his scrotum to his bum. With his whole testicle in my mouth, I can easily reach and tease his bumhole with my tongue. This is very, very pleasurable for him, so make sure he’s taken that hot shower, and that he’s removed all of the hair within his bumcrack, too.

    Complete pubic hair removal on your man might not be for every body type or ability, but I can tell you it will make your testicle sucking experience so much easier and way more enjoyable, and it heightens his sensations, too.

    I see pubic hair’s purpose on us ladies as beneficial for protecting our delicate vaginal environment, but I struggle to see any benefit for men to have pubic hair. It gets in the way of everything, and this testicle sucking activity is yet another example. It’s so freaking hot seeing hubby freshly shaven down there with absolutely nothing in-between me and his manhood. Confidence is sexy.
