Deepthroating is a very popular request on webcam and in clips

Deepthroating is a highly sought after skill by cam and clip performers due to its popularity among customers. Deepthroating is when you give a blowjob (whether to a toy or a real dick) and put the dick all the way in your throat, oftentimes until you gag and your lower lip makes content with the balls on the dildo or penis. This can be a hard skill to learn especially if you are someone who has a tough gag reflex to work with, and although it isn’t necessary if it is something you are uncomfortable with experimenting with, if you are a performer who wants to learn the skill to incorporate it into your shows or maybe even add spice into your own personal bedroom life then here are my tips! (From a former small dildo user who gagged after 2 inches entered her mouth!)

It isn’t going to happen in one go, be patient

You need to get comfortable with pushing your own physical limits and get your gag reflex used to getting messed with. Don’t try to shove a big ol’ dildo or penis down your throat in one go, that will put you on the fast track to throwing up on accident. Take a deep breath and start with smaller objects like fingers, popsicles, or lollipops. Find the parts of your mouth and throat that are good to go and find the sensitive parts and work slowly to get the sensitive parts used to being touched.

Practice in the shower

Whether you practice with a dildo or your fingers, the shower is one of the best places to practice deepthroating. The heat from the shower helps to relax your muscles, the water helps keep things moist, and you can feel free to drool all over yourself because you can shower right off afterwards. The shower is where I successfully deepthroated for the first time, the hot misty air helps to loosen up your throat and makes you much less tense. Once again, take it slow!

Get to know your gag reflex

No gag reflex reacts the same, some can’t handle being pressed against, some react better to being pressed up against, some are fine with a quick poke, and some simply do not want to be touched. Once you are able to get something in there, test out the limits of your gag reflex by holding a dildo or penis in your throat and seeing how long you can hold it for, see if your gag reflex can’t handle being pressed against or if the gagging sensation goes away once the tip of the object passes it. Getting to know your gag reflex will help you avoid oopsies during deepthroating.

Come to terms with the fact it’s going to be uncomfortable

Nobody really likes the feeling of almost throwing up, and until you are used to the sensation of deepthroating you are going to feel that feeling quite a few times. It will start to go away once you get used to it and your body will adapt to the sensation, so it will take some serious dedication to actually deepthroat consistently without getting that “OMG I am going to throw up” feeling. The more you practice, the faster it’ll go away.

Get in practice when you can during your daily life

The more you mess with your gag reflex, the faster it will adapt to being played with regularly. A good way to get your gag reflex used to being messed with is to mess with it often, be really thorough when brushing your teeth and go nice and far back when brushing your tongue. Phallic shaped fruit? You know what to do.

Keep track of your progress

Being unable to deepthroat can be sexually discouraging but if you keep track of your progress it can be motivational! If you have a favorite toy that you use often keep track of your process by deepthroating as far as you can and measuring the length you were able to take. If you find that you get stuck at a specific spot on that toy, check the circumference of your toy. It could be too thick for your throat, try something thinner!

Don’t be scared to get messy

There is a reason that deepthroating is associated with sloppy blowjobs and it’s because when you mess with your gag reflex you start producing more saliva, use this to your advantage and as lubrication for getting toys or penis deeper into your throat. The wetter the better! When there is friction you are more likely to irritate your throat and gag reflex and cause a bad reaction. Spit on your toy and get it really wet before attempted any deepthroat action.

Practice breathing through your nose with something in your mouth

You need to be able to breath and you will be able to get much more air if you are capable of breathing through your nose when your mouth is occupied, practice getting good meaningful breaths through your nose while you have something in your mouth to help prevent issues. Deepthroating is hot, suffocating is not.

Try a dildo with a spine or a soft dildo

Using a dildo that is really soft so it doesn’t irritate your throat but that has a spine so it stays straight and bends easily is a great way to practice deepthroating. Softer dildos are definitely better for learning deepthroating, so go with the softest dildo you have available even if it doesn’t have a spine. You can upgrade to firmer toys once you are more comfortable with deepthroating, because if you gag/choke on a firmer dildo you can cause tears in your throat.
