Mammary intercourse is a sex act, performed as either foreplay or as non-penetrative sex, that involves the stimulation of a man's penis by a woman's breasts and vice versa.[1] It involves placing the penis between a woman's breasts and moving the penis up and down to simulate sexual penetration and to create sexual pleasure.

Practice

Mammary intercourse involves a man kneeling or sitting on a woman's stomach or chest, placing his

penetrative sex. A lubricant or saliva
may be used between the breasts or on the penis. Alternatively, the woman can tighten her breasts around the penis and move them back and forth. Other positions involve either the man standing while the woman kneels, or the man laying back with the woman on top.

In some cases, mammary intercourse can be combined with oral sex. Mammary intercourse may be carried out face to face or head to tail.

Mammary intercourse is mostly suited for women with naturally larger breasts, while it is recommended that women with smaller breasts be on top.[2] Smaller female breasts, however, tend to be more sensitive than larger ones.[3]

The woman normally does not receive direct sexual stimulation during mammary intercourse, other than the

fingering
on the woman during mammary intercourse.

Since mammary intercourse is a non-penetrative sex act, the risk of passing a

mucous membranes and pre-ejaculate or semen is greatly reduced. HIV is among the infections that require such direct contact and is therefore very unlikely to be transmitted via mammary intercourse.[6] A study of the condom usage habits of New Zealand's sex workers said that they offered various safe sex alternatives to vaginal sex to clients who refused to wear a condom. One sex worker said that mammary intercourse was one alternative used; mammary intercourse performed by a woman with large breasts felt to the client like penetrative vaginal sex.[7]

Depictions of the practice, at least in advertising, have been described as

erotic.[8] Mammary intercourse has sometimes been considered a perversion.[9] Sigmund Freud, however, considered such extensions of sexual interest to fall within the range of the normal, unless marked out by exclusivity (i.e. the repudiation of all other forms of sexual contact).[10]

Slang terms

Slang terms for mammary intercourse include:

  • Titty-fuck,[11] titjob or titfuck in the United States
  • Tit wank or French fuck in the United Kingdom – the latter term dating back to the 1930s; while a more jocular equivalent is a trip down mammary lane.[12][13]
