Oral sex is a common sex position among couples of all ages and genders. Also referred to as fellatio or cunnilingus, this position involves oral stimulation of a partner’s genitals or anus.

Oral sex is often a part of foreplay before intercourse. Many couples use it as a way to warm up or to get in the mood for intercourse, but oral stimulation can also play a part during or after, too. This position can also be just as pleasurable as a stand-alone act.
