Revision as of 03:48, 4 February 2005
Autofellatio is a sex act wherein a male performs oral sex on himself as a form of masturbation. This is usually not possible for most men, but can be achieved if the male is sufficiently well-endowed, or is sufficiently flexible. Gymnastics and/or yoga are potential methods by which votaries of this pastime may increase their flexibility, and thus their ability to perform this act.
Autofellatio has been featured in a few pornographic movies, although it is not one of the more popular subjects.
In Egyptian mythology, the god Atum (Ra) created the gods Shu and Tefnut by autofellatio; or at least, it is argued that a proper translation of certain texts demonstrate that the ancient Egyptians believed this. Other translations ascribe this creation to mucus, rather than semen. It has also been argued that the Ouroboros is a symbol of autofellatio.
In his semi-autobiographical novel The Hand-Reared Boy (1970), the writer Brian W. Aldiss describes group masturbation practices at a British boys' boarding school. One boy with an especially large penis is capable of fellating himself, a fact which the narrator, Horatio Stubbs, verifies.
Autocunnilingus for a woman is rumored to be possible, but would be more difficult to perform since the subject's head must move a greater distance.
The topic has also been used as the basis for comedy. Bill Hicks elaborated an oft-quoted riff on the subject of fellatio:
Kevin Smith later developed a similar theme ("He broke his neck trying to suck his own dick") in his debut film Clerks. . Writer/director Larry David, in his 1998 film Sour Grapes, saw fit to throw in a few mentions of the topic, also taking it one step further with muted shots of a lead actor fellating himself occasionally (back trouble allowing) throughout the movie.
