I guess I don't mind one way or the other. Normally, she's got one hand on the base unless she can take it all in. So, when she's off for a breath she can give a stroke or two. And I like it when she pulls off to lick the tip or along my shaft and she holds it. I do love watching a cock disappear into a girls mouth...with or without hands!
I prefer no hands. For both giving & receiving. My 1st bf taught me how to suck cock & to swallow his cum & to use no hands, only my mouth on his cock.
If she is really really good with her tongue then hands off might work. But at my age, nearly 70, my cock is not as sensitive as it was so it needs hands as well. I will often do the hands, while she does the mouth (used to be able to do the lot myself, but alas...) This is rather like just wanking into her mouth - but she does amazing things with her tongue
My fb gave me a phenomenal blowjob last night with her hands on my chest and the base and balls engulfing me as I watched her jet black hair fall down. I moved it back so I could watch
I'm good either way, hands or no hands until I'm ready to cum. Then I demand stroking as I cum. The firm stroke is important to me as I cum.
I love having someone who can deliver without her hands, the skills On the other hand (pun intended and not intended), why waste the extra stimulation and pleasure of someone using her hand and provide more. The only reason would be receiving deepthroat. Then maybe play with the testicles.
I do both I’ll use my mouth, but like others said when he isn’t coming yet and it’s been awhile I’ll use my hands as well. Never met a guy who has complained yet.
