I know, the spam, it just doesn't stop.
So I've been reading all this CSI slash and one thing I've been noticing in some of the smut that I never saw in HP is one guy laying down and the other guy kneeling over him, and the one on the bottom sucking him off.
Now, being in this prone position and having to lift up with your neck/shoulder muscles sounds significantly less than comfortable. But beyond that, let's face it: it's tough enough to breathe when you're giving head in the first place. I can't imagine deep throating someone if your neck is bent. It doesn't make sense to me. Hell, I can't even sing sitting like that, much less shove 5 or 6" of penis down my throat and then swallow a teaspoon or so of ejaculate.
[Of course, being in that position as a girl (though a bit farther forward such that you are actually sitting on your partner's face) makes tons of sense, but the angles are so much different and there isn't anything penetrating your partner's throat in that instance.]
So am I just picturing this wrong? Is the giver sitting up from his abdomen rather than his neck, the givee up on his knees rather than down on his haunches? And even if that is so, who wants to give head while doing what amounts to a permanent crunch?
ETA: A friend said that while she can see giving head (though perhaps not deep throating) in this position she can't see being able to be very active about it, and that it sounds more like mouth-fucking to her. I agree. The problem is that these stories are very specifically not talking about mouth-fucking, as the top isn't doing any thrusting and is frequently fairly passive. Neither of us can picture giving head from that position and not being essentially passive.
Thoughts?
