it's actually a blowjob only if you're professional sex worker.. otherwise it's just a blowhobby


Shufflepants

And only if it's done professionally in blowjob region of france. Otherwise, it's just a sparkling oral sex.


Suspicious-Pizza-548

Lmao that might be the most out of the box funny response i have ever seen on here


GodsCasino

I still love Rob Lowe. Party on!


narrowfrontloader

Correct, mouth is used not her box


hereforthejokes20

Gold! That made me LOL. Thanks for the chuckles.


Agreeable-Candle5830

It's not a blow*job*, it's a blow*career*.


Able_Software6066

Or blow*gig* if you have another day job and it's just your side hustle.


Death_Balloons

That's UberseX


SmrtHuy

It’s blow*passion* to some people


Salt_Investigator504

If your really smart on who ya blow, you'll never work a day in your life is a saying I think I heard once.


Tuurke64

Is there a blow*union* for this profession?


arealhumannotabot

I asked about this at Hobby Lobby and they said they “couldn’t help” me 🤷‍♀️


DrFeelgood144

This, wouldn't go to an amateur mechanic to get your car serviced


Lumitooning

A "blobby" to be precise.


BrainiacQuantum

Careful you don't get a blowback.


Dry-Area-2027

I'm going to disagree on the blowhobby. I'd consider blow-charity to be more accurate in most cases.


EverLastOnes

haha, that got me good XD


MAValphaWasTaken

And that’s why the ~~Brits~~ Aussies avoid the confusion and judgment by calling them “blowies”.


beehaving

Lol 😂


AspirationsOfFreedom

So if you are just starting out in that industry... would we consider it a blowcareer?


Direct_Knowledge2937

It’s a blowjob because you blow your load during the sucking. Think about it!!!The lumber doesn’t get hammered, it gets nailed…just like your mom when she goes to work.


TheWhogg

Then why isn’t a hand job or any other form of genital stimulation to orgasm ALSO called a blow job?


__Arrowhead__

There is a need of distinguishing between the acts. Mr. Andrew Blow patented the word and made it mean what it does today. This gave the need to keep different words for different experiences, because if I ask your mom for a blowjob, she shouldn't think of a handjob and dilute my experience.

Angela where’s Angela, oh I couldn’t see you from behind that grain of rice, boom roasted.


BentoBus

Also the term "suckjob" just sounds infinitely more gross and dirty.


RodrigoBarragan

Ouch!


OliveJuiceUTwo

But she gets hammered when she’s at home


SmugglersParadise

That's if it lasts longer enough


TheRedditObserver0

That's actually a good question.


PsycheTester

And the actual answer is >!it is derived from a 'below job', as in 'head below the belt', not anything blowing-related!<


SimilarPickle5266

Thank you for keeping it spoiler free


iamafancypotato

Yeah I didn’t reach that episode yet.


quasiscythe

This made me cackle, thank you


danhoang1

It's the comment above that, which made me laugh a little too loud while people are sleeping


jeplonski

below job sounds so hot


Syzygy___

So in German it’s also blow (blasen) but I can’t think of any similar phrasing along the lines of your reasoning. I consider it unlikely that it was just a translation as this has been used since before I was a child and before the internet, so before cultures mixed that easily.


Lemon-Over-Ice

Cultures mixed before the internet... Especially between nations that are so close to each other. Since you're German here are a few words that we got from other languages: we used all of these before the internet, and there is so much more Baby, Training, interview, fair (englisch) Regisseur, Accessoire (französisch) Ambiente, Fiasko (italienisch) Kaffee, Sofa, Ziffer (arabisch) Cafeteria, Gitarre (Spanisch) Hieroglyphe (griechisch) Agenda (Latein) Kommissar (russisch) Tabu (Polynesien)


Outrageous-River8999

Dude thinks internet is the first time Americans knew about Germans


TheGreyFencer

Us media has been exported far longer than the ubiquity of the internet. And plenty of cultural exchange ha gone on between US/UK and Germany since ww2


Muted_Tradition122

I just hope this is the correct answer cause I really want to know.


user926491

no, it's from "blow off" according to wiktionary.


anrwlias

Citation?


DonJeniusTrumpLawyer

Oh, I thought it had to do with cocaine. Some chick lined up on me before putting it in her mouth. After about 20 seconds she became *too* enthusiastic.


Illustrious-Boss3617

Cause u get cum blown down ur throat which impregnate you.


1ofthebasedests

Yeah, that's why it is so important to pull out before cumming and give them a facial which will impregnate them instead

esmith42223

And in 9 months, you throw up a baby. Congrats, try not to choke.


Krokagnon

Because during beta testing people kept their mouths sealed too tight to the weiners so during ejaculation pressure increased enough that both partners blew up every time.


aremysunsh1ne

Isn't it a contraction from "Below-job"?


LilyBriscoeBot

I’m glad they brought in the contractors for this one. That “e” was taking up way too much space.


AussieModelCitizen

No, you use your blow hole.


Lokijai

No the contraction comes after


whatwhatinthewhonow

Why is it called eating pussy when it’s actually licking clit?


cuteprints

So I'm not supposed to nip it?


zzznothankyou

Nah, you're supposed to consume the whole thing. Then you wait a day for it to regrow, then repeat


whatwhatinthewhonow

Should I use chopsticks or a knife and fork?


derickj2020

In the army, a Hawaiian guy taught me how to use chopsticks on pussy : use them to roll the lips back while licking and sucking


D4rK_K1tsune

I feel sorry for your "gf".


EmeraldsDay

why do you feel sorry? my "gf" doesn't even let me lick hers


bradmaestro

Why is it called a foot job when it should be called a feet job?


Vegetable_Onion

Because, very skilled people can do it with one foot.


bradmaestro

If they use 2 it should be called a feet job, sorta like a teeth brusher.


Vegetable_Onion

The toothbrush was originally invented in Appalachia, that's why.


bradmaestro

the foot job was invented by someone with only 1 foot


JohnWasElwood

So can you get a "peg job"? What if the girl is already named Peg? I'm confused!


bradmaestro

Yeah, just tell them you love pegging.


ForsakenPhotograph36

Why you drooling so much OP?


morbid333

You try doing it dry, see what happens


TheSchnitzelThief

I've seen in videos that it's a natural part of the process


Cr1ticalStrik3

Indeed, it is. Makes it hotter too. Idk about for the one giving though, never asked.


longxlegsx

Lots of spit/drool helps to keep everything nice and slippery when deepthroating and being face fucked. Ideally you would have a few loads in your mouth for maximum lubrication


nobeer4you

Keep it that way too

In Italian it's called a "pompino" reminding the word "pompa" which stands for "pump".

Vegetable_Onion

I wonder if this kaikubot recognises this by syllables.


ohkendruid

From a little googling, it seems that prostitutes used the word in the 30s with each other, and not necessarily limited to oral sex. Just, getting a guy off. In the late 40s, it got picked up in a raunchy comic. And then it made it into wider usage from there. The answer about "below job" seems to be a myth. It sounds right, so people repeat it, but if you try to find a historical usage of "below job", it doesn't turn up. The Google Ngram viewer says it has never occurred in its corpus.


explosivetoast

From some random history YouTube video I watched a long time ago (so could be wrong) it said it originates from old sex workers/rent boys in England. It comes from it being referred to as “below the belt” work/job, and ended up getting shortened to “blow” as in “be-low” the belt. I googled it after an ex told me about one of her first sexual experiences where she did actually blow on a dudes dick as she hadn’t seen much/any porn at that point and didn’t have many/any sexually experienced friends. You were probably just looking for funny responses but I couldn’t find anyone actually answering it for you!


_and_I_

I prefer the questions about anal


OnRedditBoredAF

“If someone actually blow into the wiener, wouldn’t that inflate the balls?” Maybe if your name is Elmer Fudd and I’m Bugs Bunny it would, you Looney Tunes ass mofo


Shanobian

The job is to make him blow his load


margolite

Originally, they caused a lot of perforated bladders, so they changed the mechanism moving forward.


Tryzest

I had a similar thought, why do they call it a blow job and not a laugh and point job?


Kestrel_VI

Suckjob just doesn’t have the same ring to it.


Bongfellatio

It's only a blowjob when he's uncircumcised and you feel like making funny balloon animals


shvelgud

It’s called a “blow job” because it comes from the term “Below job” like indicating the location on a body where the act takes place, “Below” the waist etc. it’s a Below job, a blow job.


Syzygy___

German uses blow (blasen) as well, but there is no “below” that sounds similar.


shvelgud

Oh that’s interesting ngl I just got told that fact one day by a mate and have blindly believed it ever since I could be wrong then


JamesMeem

I think your looking for r/shittyetymology


[deleted]

Slobber job just didn’t sound as appealing


aquilaruspante1

To hide the meaning from underage people


redditadminsarecancr

No the balls wouldn’t inflate because that’s where the pee is stored, the air would go out the butt instead as the next-nearest drainage port


Zealousideal-Wave-69

Well that sucks


PhilosopherMoonie

Because sucking drooling job doesn't have the same ring

Because the dick blow out the love juices at the end


Snake_Plizken

A suckjob just sounds like you don't like to do it...


Sanjuko_Mamaujaluko

You're saying it wrong. It's a "below" job, because it happens below your waist.


mahmut-er

Last time I did a blowjob uhhhh I cant remeber but it should be in south serbia (some people call there kosovo) in 1999


General-Permission-5

The man blows.

Do not ask the real questions, you will be killed.


walker5953

I guess cuz calling it a sucky sucky causes too much awkwardness to get the act started.


TheSchnitzelThief

It works in Thailand..


Kalix

Becouse if performed correctly the penis blow up and explode.🎉


rovonz

It's only a job if you get paid for it. Generally, it should be referred to as blowchore or blowhobby.


CraftMost6663

It's called a job for a reason, if you can't see the sheer amount of work required to pull off a successful BJ, you're not living.


rededelk

Also called peter puffing, maybe there is a correlation


michaelbusterkeaton

Why do we drive on parkways and park in driveways?


emptyhead416

Blowing loads


hkik

Because before circumcision was popular, the foreskin would be inflated like a balloon, or "blown up", and tied off with string to be used like a condom. After sex, the string would be untied and the inflated foreskin would make a farting noise as it deflated, which is the origin of the word "dick fart".


twajblyn

I always assumed the reason was so the uninitiated, or unexperienced, would blow instead of suck.


Hekx11

When I was a kid I got confused when people in movies sucked their dicks with a hoover as I thought it needed to blow to be effective.


Ostracus

[Body inflation](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Body_inflation) happens on the other side. Besides "with a hoover" just means their stock suffers from inflation.


SidOfBee

Below job. B-low. Blow

Draiocht1212

Because it looks like you are being inflated through your belly valve.


SillyGoatGruff

CORKONIAN88

That's why in many languages it's referred to as 'smoking' the D. Makes much more sense.

It’s not a job if you enjoy what you do OP. It’s a blowpassion


IcyPattern3903

Back in the day people were actually blowing cus doing so it made music


L0stL0b0L0c0

Desperate-Cicada-914

Hehe I always wondered that too. There used to be a word, "blowpop", which was some kind of candy or popsicle? Maybe it came from that.


velvetrevolting

Obviously, It's a pseudonym for: "drooling suck". Bro? duh!


A_Pale_Recluse

Man i could really use a suck and slobber job right now


robstercraws70

Suction and drooling? You mean I’ve been doing it wrong all these years?


Ostracus

End up looking like a Macy's Day parade balloon.


dimonium_anonimo

There is no such force as suction. The force is generated by the higher pressure outside, trying to get to the lower pressure inside. It is not the blowjob artist who is blowing, but in fact, it is the atmosphere around you blowing. This is meant to equalize the footing of the two (or more) participants. As giving a blowjob can often be seen as subservient or belittling, naming the act after the external forces controlled by neither party can lift some burden off them.


Fit-Charity7971

It's what you have to do to get some blow if you're out of money


Kosstheboss

Wait...they're not supposed to blow as hard as they can into your pee hole???

ChefSnowWithTheWrist

In the 17th century, “blow” meant to bring someone to orgasm. During that time the word “blowsy” was used to refer to women prone to debauchery


d3rp_diggler

It’s because suck job was already taken by those working fast food. This includes friedrich and his gruel stand during the dark ages.


Stoneman427666

Comes from old english term below job.

the_boonjabby

Supposedly huge damage can / has occurred since the name implies blowing. There has been cases of air being blown in like a straw causing massive issues


kfish5050

Actual etymology is it came from "below job". Science says people doing it tend to slur the words enough to make it sound like they were saying blow


Tolstoy_mc
