Understanding Cunnilingus
Cunnilingus is a form of oral sex that involves stimulating a woman’s genitals with the mouth, tongue, or lips. It is often referred to as ‘going down on a woman’ or ‘eating her out,’ and can be a pleasurable and intimate experience for both partners.
How Cunnilingus Works
During cunnilingus, the partner uses their tongue and lips to stimulate the clitoris, vulva, and vaginal opening. This can involve licking, sucking, and gentle biting to create sensations that can lead to arousal and orgasm.
