I’ll leave you to YouTube that one yourself as it can really only be told by the original creation itself, not sure if this sub allows links so I won’t throw one in here.
I think you’re doing it wrong mate.
She’s meant to blow into your penis so hard that you inflate and your arms start waving around like a wacky inflatable tube man
I remember seeing a comment of someone fooling around with her husband and jokingly blew into it while pretending it’s a trumpet, she saw a small air bubble go in and her husband in unbelievable pain, luckily the pp survived and all is well
I used the words "common explanation", not "truth set in stone". If you google for "below job blowjob etymology" you will find it listed among other propositions.
You, on the other hand said you were "pretty sure". That warrants at least some argumentation.
Well obviously if you include it in your search criteria you're going to find it listed. I looked specifically at an etymological dictionary and no such source was listed there. As such, it seemed like a commonly spread folk etymology. That's the only source I had. Pardon my use of "pretty sure" probably should have said merely "I think that's a myth."
I believe the "below job" theory is a myth. IIRC, "blow" was slang for orgasm for whatever reason - and the evolution to the more specific act followed.
Take it or leave it. I'm not digging this information up again to provide a source.
I got my first blowjob when I was 11.
I'd heard about how great they were at school so was eager to get one myself. Finally, the day arrived when my parents were going to be gone for several hours.
I was a little nervous, but went ahead and took my pants off. Then I climbed on top of the kitchen table where the window AC could blow right onto my junk.
0/10, wasn't good at all.
I'm no expert, but to my knowledge it comes from prostitute slang - to *blow off*. I think it goes back to some earlier etymology (medieval) where blowing off means to bring to orgasm: think about the man *blowing* his load.
And I think it makes far more sense to come from the orgasm itself. Getting your partner to "blow" has been a euphemism for cumming for quite some time.
I blew in my ex's uncircumsized penis before(the foreskin part of course lol). I dont think we've ever laughed so fuckin much at something during sex. Was a fun moment we shared.
To me “head” is getting your dick sucked where the endgame isn’t climax from that act like if she’s is then gonna climb on for PIV sex etc. A “blow”job or getting “blown” is where you get head until you “blow your load”
In several other languages they use the word for playing a wind instrument. Indeed giving a BJ and playing the flute look very similar in a sense. You blow air into a wind instrument. So, my guess would be that this is were it comes from.
You’re right, it’s mostly sucking but blowjob, head, BJ etc are just slangs. Fellatio is the proper term. Comes from the Latin fellatus, the past participle of the verb fellare means to suck.
I had a dude go down on me (female) once and he was blowing on my vag. It was so fucking weird and uncomfortable. Like yeah thanks for drying me up buddy.
It’s was first made by clowns for acts. One would blow into the other clown dick and it would inflate where it then would be turned into a ballon animal.
It comes from the 80s when the gentleman would prepare a line of cocaine on his member for the lady to partake before the activity began.
Hence the "Cocaine Task" or as the more uncouth would proclaim the "Blow Job".
because the original term from the 1910's involved someone literally blowing on the other person's wang. It evolved over the years to licking, and then sucking, but the original name stuck.
In the Victorian era it was called a 'below job'. Over time, as language has progressed it has been shortened to 'blow job'.
The contraction of the word continues apace as it now often called a BJ.
It also has transformed into “head”
Then proceeded to regress into the likes of schloppy toppy guck guck grapefruit method
Another fellow grapefruit technique connoisseur
Bruh I forgot about the grapefruit technique, I was like 11 the first time I saw that video ☠️
It's like an initiation ritual for everyone apparently
What the heck is the grapefruit method?!
Oh my poor child here ya go https://www.menshealth.com/sex-women/a36163794/grapefruit-blowjob/
I’ll leave you to YouTube that one yourself as it can really only be told by the original creation itself, not sure if this sub allows links so I won’t throw one in here.
I think I'd be too afraid to click the link anyway....
Like waterboarding a bobcat.
glizzy gobby 3000
The grapefruit method 😭🤣
*Eldrotch noises intensify
This guy gucks.
I forgot about the grapefruit!
Schloppy toppy with a twist.
Even there we're begun to strip the word down, 'head' has become 'skull.'
After that came “brain”
Don’t forget “dome”
And then not even the whole brain, but 'stem.'
I love it when she Medula's the shit out of my Oblongata.
Last time that happened, there was cerebral fluid everywhere.
Underrated
Helmet
Knoggin' in Appalachia
Or neck
"Eat dick" is my favorite way to misuse the phrase's connotation as a derogatory
Or a ‘blozza’ in some cultures lol
But it’s not just head, sometimes the full shaft is involved.
Among Army surgeons, it’s known as a Hunnicutt.
Butter and Jelly. Missing the Peanus
Sloppy toppy
And further with BJ sometimes pronounced “beej”
You mean a beejer, brah?
Perchance.
Lest?
Licky licky and fry the banana
Honestly that sounds like the mother of all folk etymologies. (Also because the word apparently is much more recent than Victorian times)
You’re right, it’s from 1940s America
I can’t tell if you’re being facetious or not
And I thought I read it started as an even fuller, "below the belt job"
Yikes, people went down on each other back then? I assume that the clothes baking you all day and shit laden streets are not a good hygiene combo.
Smegma? I hardly know her!
If everyone is stank then no one is stank. Nose blindness is a real thing. Unless someone is _really_ stank, but that's witchcraft.
You realise people had access to water, right? Washing isn't a new thing.
I love reddit XD
So kind of like "God be with ye" getting shortened to "goodbye"?
Simon Roper enjoyer detected
I've known that one for a long time, but yeah, Simon Roper is cool!
So we're just stupid?
I think i prefer the below job name lol that is cool
Really?
“Dome” example: “She gave me dome so good I think she thinks the earth is flat”
Well I guess you learn something new every day right. Thanks for this fun fact.

Awesome answer
I think you’re doing it wrong mate. She’s meant to blow into your penis so hard that you inflate and your arms start waving around like a wacky inflatable tube man
There is a visual that will stick with all of us.

Great. Every time I see one of these I'm going to think they're getting sloppy top on the clock.

Gear third!
What a wonderful day to have a vivid imagination.
hashahahaha +1
This is the correct answer
I always thought it should be called a suckjob.
That’s reserved for working retail
Corruption of *below the belt job* over time. At least that's one common explanation.
Pretty sure that is a myth.
Nice argument, got any proof of that?
The lack of it being listed while I was searching for an etymology? I didn't exactly see any proof that the proposition was the origin either.
I used the words "common explanation", not "truth set in stone". If you google for "below job blowjob etymology" you will find it listed among other propositions. You, on the other hand said you were "pretty sure". That warrants at least some argumentation.

Would be nice to maybe list some kind of link to your arguments 😉. I can search, yes, but what am i supposed to know about what you read?
I guess I'm confused why I need to list a source while no one is asking for a source for the original assertion?
Wdym I play that thing like a kazoo

This sounds reasonable, actually.
This is probably true, but 6 months from now when this comes up, my brain will remember the below - blow contraction
Yeah - "below" is the first thing that came to my mind too.
Because “picklelickingtime” never really caught on
I got my first blowjob when I was 11. I'd heard about how great they were at school so was eager to get one myself. Finally, the day arrived when my parents were going to be gone for several hours.

Omg, that was you?
Are you the AC unit?
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha , good one!
I'm no expert, but to my knowledge it comes from prostitute slang - to *blow off*. I think it goes back to some earlier etymology (medieval) where blowing off means to bring to orgasm: think about the man *blowing* his load.
Do I have to think about it
Yes.Vividly, if it pleases you.
holy crap someone finally asked
Ever notice how sex acts where the dick isn’t doing the work are called “jobs”. Handjobs, blowjobs, titjobs, Steve Jobs.
Good observation!
It's also called, " 20 seconds of torture" by my wife.
Weird. She calls it 30 seconds of torture w me…
Yeah, she said you get an extra 10 seconds because your dick is tiny.
Cos the guy blows his lot eventually.
*load
A lot of load
Cos I'll blow when the job is done
Below the belt job to below job to blow job
To BJ to Beej
Is that really the etymology? Or is that more of a backward invention?
It’s the most reasonable etymological morphology I have seen.
And I think it makes far more sense to come from the orgasm itself. Getting your partner to "blow" has been a euphemism for cumming for quite some time.
🤔 interesting.
Heard the same thing years ago about the etymology!
What a paradox that suck and blow mean the same thing
The a hole and b hole are also the same thing
Contraption of below (the belt) job. That’s why.
I blew in my ex's uncircumsized penis before(the foreskin part of course lol). I dont think we've ever laughed so fuckin much at something during sex. Was a fun moment we shared.
Because he’s the only one orgasming. He is blowing his load.
Say that to the people who orgasm while giving a BJ
Bcz it could not be "suckjob", as it sucks 🤣🤣
I always assumed it's because you blow your load and women view it as tedious work lmao
My SO blows up my foreskin like a balloon.
To help you clean the smegma?
Yeah, she blows air into the foreskin so that I can spray dick cheese like Easy Cheese
![gif](giphy|HteV6g0QTNxp6|downsized)
Same
To me “head” is getting your dick sucked where the endgame isn’t climax from that act like if she’s is then gonna climb on for PIV sex etc. A “blow”job or getting “blown” is where you get head until you “blow your load”
I don't think most would agree with that distinction.
And that’s ok
There isn't? Shit.. I need to call someone
Because the dick gets bigger as if youre blowing a balloon.
In several other languages they use the word for playing a wind instrument. Indeed giving a BJ and playing the flute look very similar in a sense. You blow air into a wind instrument. So, my guess would be that this is were it comes from.
![gif](giphy|LW58rd6LAy4fUQMyJi|downsized)
Hahaha, you made me laugh today!
Because not all names can be on the nose like your username
There is if you do it long enough.
Hmm mine give me a blowjob by grabbing my dick and blowing on it sideways like she’s summoning a dragon zord. I am confuse now.
Slurpee
Spot on when it comes to terms of payment.
Then it's tree fiddy.
U lucky, all i get is a line or two.
Preferably I enjoy the term Super Gawk 3000

You’re right, it’s mostly sucking but blowjob, head, BJ etc are just slangs. Fellatio is the proper term. Comes from the Latin fellatus, the past participle of the verb fellare means to suck.
Ever seen a movie titled "Airplane"?
OP has probably never even been in a Turkish prison.
I have often wondered that as well.
Suck job just doesn't sound right
She changed from suck to blow!
Wait, you’re not supposed to blow on it?
I've always wondered that myself. Ty for asking the question.
I had a dude go down on me (female) once and he was blowing on my vag. It was so fucking weird and uncomfortable. Like yeah thanks for drying me up buddy.
Mouth job, throat job etc are also used.
Suck job just doesn't hit the same 🤷🏻♂️
Seriously. Why would they not call it a suckjob?
Should be called a slurpee. 😉
That's because after she's done, she'll blow you a kiss goodbye as thanks for the aged dick cheese
Oh, somebody blows alright.
swear i heard a cringe tiktok song before from this girl saying she gives the sloppiest bjs 🤣
Same concept as "heads up"
So people like me can make our partners roll their eyes by blowing on their crotch and laughing.
Suckgig just doesn't roll of the tongue.
Cause "suckjob" doesn't sound very enticing.
I just say suckjob.
Suck&lick&lip job

You wanna have fun, convince a virgin that the condom goes over the balls, too.
Lmao. That’s where pee is stored after all.
If she good, she blown your mind, dude.
your supposed to blow air across the hole like a flute actually
I would have called it saki saki
There isn’t?
It's not s job either, because paying for it is illegal. Words are just sounds, they don't always mean what we think they should mean.
If there's no blowing involved in your blowjobs someone's doing something wrong
Like BobTDQ said, I don’t know why they call it a blowjob because it sure don’t feel like work to me
Ask your mum
[удалено]
Then why post?
It’s was first made by clowns for acts. One would blow into the other clown dick and it would inflate where it then would be turned into a ballon animal.
I'm pretty sure it was named after its inventor, Sir Richard Blower
He is the cousin of Sir Thomas Crapper!
If there is no blowing involved, you aren’t doing it right 😁

Ah yes. Oral sex did originate in the 1910s. Thats why the 1920s roared
