Those are mighty basic basics. I kinda have an issue with the gently gently approach. As a general rule, I like a firmer touch on my breasts. I don't like to be pinched or bitten (usually, there are odd moments), but the feather-light touch just doesn't get me anywhere.
Kimi likes a firm touch on her breasts. This is filed in my personal archive of pleasant information I probably will never need but just in case... Myk
I think this really really really depends on the girl. Observe her reaction when you explore her. The best way to find out what a woman likes is to ask her. Perhaps you can put her hand over hers and ask her to show you how she likes it done.
It seems to depend on the time of the month. Some days a firm squeeze is good others its "no touch" day. Then she will suprise me and asked for a nice lite slap. I never know. Its all good though.
Amen on the "Time of the month" issue. ALso I have found that depending upon the type and dosage of oral contraceptive I'm on will also have an effect on my sensitivity. Although I've never had breast augmentation, a friend who has told me that she has experienced a decreased level of senstivity.
I've heard that women with them sometimes find a decrease in their level of sensitivity. And yes totm does make a difference. For example a week or week and a half before I'm about 5 hex more horny and sensitive lol
I've had varying levels of sensitivity with the boob jobs (plural). After the original I had significant numbness on the right side. Complete numbness in some areas - I got burned once and didn't even know it until I saw the wound later (bumped into with a cigarette at a bachelor party). I had hypersensitivity on the left side. I could barely stand to be touched, and it wasn't pleasant. That was with over-the-muscle implants. After I went under-the-muscle, and the last of the damage to the right side was repaired (I had reconstructive surgery done with my first augmentation.). All sensation returned, and the boobies and nipples feel better than ever (pre-augmentation). At this point, with the right stimulation, I get to the edge of orgasm just from touching the boobies.
Now THAT is amazing! My cousin's girlfriend says she's incredibly sensitive around her nipples after her second augmentation. After her first she had the them re-done as she had lost feeling. Really gotta know where you're going.
I agree that the time of the month plays a big part in how I want my boobs touched. I think a guy should just come out and ask his partner what she wants, each time. That's the best way to ensure that you don't accidentally hurt her. For a long time I had a fluid-filled cyst on the side of my left breast that was tender to the touch, and really painful certain times of the month. Wearing a bra made it hurt, and even grazing my own arm across it made me wince. Several years ago, my GYN told me to cut out caffiene, and it went away. Recently it came back, and I realized I'd fallen off the caffiene wagon. I was drinking coffee, tea and sodas at work to stay awake at work 'til 2am every night, and then I was pounding the coffee in the morning when I got my kid ready for school in the mornings. I cut out the caffiene again, and my boobs don't hurt anymore.
