Giving oral sex (cunnilingus) to a woman is centered on communication, exploration, and focusing primarily on the highly sensitive 

clitoris. Every person’s body is unique, so paying attention to your partner’s verbal and non-verbal cues is essential. 

Key Principles

• Communication is paramount: Talk with your partner about their preferences, what feels good, and what does not. Encourage them to provide feedback during the act.
• Start slowly and build anticipation: Don’t go straight for the clitoris immediately. Start with kissing and licking other erogenous zones like the inner thighs, abdomen, and breasts to build arousal first.
• Focus on the clitoris: The clitoris is the primary source of pleasure and usually necessary for an orgasm. The visible part is just the “tip” of a larger internal organ; varying your technique around the entire area is key.
• Use your whole mouth: Combine your lips and tongue for a variety of sensations, including gentle sucking (lightly, as the area is sensitive), licking, and even using your nose for pressure.
• Incorporate your hands: Your hands are great for additional stimulation. Use them to massage breasts, penetrate the vagina with a finger or toy, or spread the labia for better access to the clitoris. 

Techniques to Try

Experiment with different techniques and pressure levels to find what your partner enjoys most. 

• Flat tongue strokes: Use a wide, flat tongue for broad, gentle pressure across the whole vulva.
• Targeted strokes: Use the tip of your tongue in an up-and-down, side-to-side, or circular motion around the clitoral hood.
• Varying speed and pressure: Start light and slow, increasing intensity as your partner gets more aroused. Watch their body language for cues.
• Sucking: Gently suck on the clitoris or clitoral hood, but start lightly as this can be an intense sensation.
• Mixing it up: Alternate between your mouth and fingers, or introduce a sex toy for different sensations. 

Practical Tips

• Hygiene: A warm shower beforehand can help both partners feel clean and comfortable.
• Positions: Common positions include your partner lying on their back with a pillow under their hips, or having them straddle your face so they can control the pressure and movement.
• Safety: Use a dental dam for protection against STIs, especially if you or your partner have multiple partners or during menstruation.
• Make noise: Moaning, slurping, and humming can be a major turn-on and create stimulating vibrations. 

The most important takeaway is that every person is different, so continuous communication and a willingness to explore together are key to a mutually pleasurable experience.
