A handjob or hand job is a slang term referring to the sexual stimulation of a penis using the hands and fingers. It is a form of outercourse or non-penetrative sex and, not involving the exchange of bodily fluids, is a type of safer sex. The manual stimulation of a female's sex organs is usually called fingering, although sometimes "handjob" is used to refer to this act as well.

A common handjob technique - First, the giving partner grips the receiving partner's penis with their entire hand similar to making a fist (except the fist is made around the penis). An alternative grip is to use only a couple fingers wrapped around the penis. Second, the giving partner moves their hand in an up and down motion, which causes stimulation to the shaft and glans (head) of the penis. Some people prefer to use lubrication to prevent friction on the penis. There are many other techniques that can be used, and some involve the use of both hands. Since each individual male is different, it generally takes patience and practice on behalf of both partners before the most pleasurable hand technique is discovered. (read more . . . )
