Guys Get Real About Whether Or Not Hand Jobs Are Still A Thing

by Candice Jalili

I was under the impression that hand jobs stopped being a thing as soon as real sex started being one.

But the other day, a guy friend was telling me he hooked up with a girl, and she gave him a hand job...

And you know what? He didn't hate it.

ARE HAND JOBS STILL A THING?

Fortunately for everyone, I asked, and the answers I found were certainly surprising.

First off, we had these guys who not only think hand jobs are a thing, but who were, much to my surprise, pretty into them. And by "pretty into," I really mean, like, SUPER into them.

This guy thinks they're a thing, and that's a FACT.

This guy likes that hand jobs leave room for him to kiss his girl:

This guy is very specific about the kind of handy he likes:

This guy says they have a higher chance of making him come than nearly ANYTHING ELSE:

This guy sees them as a nice, hassle-free alternative to blowies:

This guy would even choose a quality handy over a subpar blowie:

This guy thinks they've actually got an edge on blowjobs in general:

And so does this guy:

This guy's girlfriend has figured out the perfect routine with them:

This guy appreciates a really well-done hand job:

This guy thinks they're "neat":

This guy wants them ALL THE TIME:

This guy says one of the best orgasms he ever had was from a hand job:

This guy wishes they were still a thing:

Next, we had these guys who weren't quite as STOKED about them as the guys in the previous group. But they definitely weren't opposed either.

This guy appreciates a nice handy from behind:

This guy thinks lube can make or break a hand job:

This guy sees it as a sort of progression:

This guy isn't totally opposed:

This guy thinks they're pretty commonplace:

This guy thinks the only issue with hand jobs is that girls are bad at them:

This guy knows from firsthand experience that they're still thing:

Finally, we have these guys who confirmed my original suspicions that guys older than 14 are just not into hand jobs... like, at all.

This guy thinks they're only a high school thing:

This guy is team blowjob:

This guy only trusts himself to get the job done:

This guy also only trusts one person to get the job done with hand jobs:

This guy sees himself as a hand job "expert":

This guy is never going to come from a hand job:

This guy compares hand jobs to going to a steakhouse only to get chicken tenders:

This guy thinks the trick to a good handy is turning it into a blowie:

This guy really doesn't get what the big deal is:

This guy thinks they're a TOTAL waste:

This guy has never met a woman who could do it better than he could:

Sure, a lot of guys confirmed my suspicions that hand jobs really aren't a thing anymore... but lots of guys are also pretty into them.

I guess it's time to check in with your BF.
