Johann Nepomuk Geiger, erotic watercolor, 1840. A woman giving a man a handjob.

A handjob (also spelled hand job) is a manual sex act involving a person stimulating the penis or scrotum of another by using the hand.[1] This is done to induce an erection for sexual pleasure, sexual arousal and may result in orgasm and ejaculation.[2]

A handjob can be performed as either foreplay or as non-penetrative sex. It is analogous to fingering (manual stimulation of the vulva or vagina). Someone may give a handjob so as not to engage in penetrative sexual activity. Besides avoiding the risks associated with sexual penetration, such as sexually transmitted infections (STIs) or pregnancy from penile-vaginal sex, some people engage in non-penetrative sex to preserve virginity.[3]

Practice

General

[edit | edit source]

The main aspect of a handjob is manual stimulation of the penis by stroking with the hand, rubbing with the fingers, or some combination.[4] One common technique is to move the hand (or both hands) up and down on the shaft, glans, and frenulum.[5][6] The movements and speed of the action may vary. Personal lubricants are often used.[7]

Others may also use their hands and fingers to stimulate the scrotum by rubbing, stroking, pulling, or even manipulating the testicles.[8]

Prevalence in massage parlors

[edit | edit source]

In some massage parlors, a masseuse, whether as part of the massage itself or directly after it, may perform a handjob on their customer. This is sometimes known by the euphemism "happy ending".[9][10]

An investigation by Time Out New York in January 2011 found many New York City massage parlors advertising "sensual massage" and providing handjobs. The parlors charged from $60 to $160, with an extra tip for the sex workers (usually $40) for a massage and manual "happy ending". Most of the massage parlors reviewed were "rub and tug joints" where handjobs were the only sexual services provided, and there was a strict policy of the male clients not touching the workers.[11]
