sible. Over-the-edge is a common position for deepthroating. In this position, the giving partner lies on their
back with the head hanging o the edge of the bed and

Deep-throating is a sexual act in which a person takes

their partners entire erect penis deep into their own
mouth and into the throat. The practice is a type of
fellatio when the giving partner is in control, while deep
throat penetration by an actively thrusting partner is
called irrumatio; both are a form of oral sex.[1][2] For
deep-throating, the penis has to be long enough so that it
can reach the back of the recipients throat.[1] The person
whose penis is inserted is usually referred to as the receiving partner, and the person who performs deep-throating
is referred to as the giving partner. The technique and
term were popularized by the 1972 pornographic lm
Deep Throat.

phantasy, that a vulture opened the mouth of the child and
forcefully belabored it with its tail, corresponds to the idea
of fellatio, a sexual act in which the member is placed into
the mouth of the woman.

It is dicult for most people to perform deep-throating,

due to the natural gag reex[3] evoked when the soft palate
is touched.[4] Dierent people have dierent sensitivities
to the reex; with practice some people learn to suppress
it. Deep-throating leads to an entirely dierent kind of
oral stimulation in comparison to regular fellatio, while
the giving partners tongue is immobilized during deepthroating and they are unable to suck;[5] the receivers
glans penis is intensely stimulated by the tightness of the
giving partners throat.

Sex positions

There are several positions that are well suited for performing deep throat. Relaxation of the throat muscles
of the giving partner is the most important aspect of
positioning. One common position is to align the giving partners mouth and throat into a straight line (like a
