Muff diving is a slang phrase to refer to cunnilingus or the act of performing oral sex on a woman. Muff, historically, refers to a piece of fur clothing. The slang phrase 'muff diving' pertains to a woman's pubic hair, which one needs to dive into in order to reach the clitoris, labia, and the rest of the vulva. Muff diving involves the direct stimulation of the clitoris, the most sexually sensitive part of a woman's body.
Muff diving requires skills, rhythm, and technique. Because the clitoris is the most sensitive part of a woman, it is also the most reactive. A wrong move – too fast, too hard, too slow, and other sensitivities – can ruin the mood. It is important to listen to the woman's verbal and physical cues. The pleasure giver needs to be sensitive about what feels good and what doesn't. Muff diving can be an end in itself, allowing the woman to reach orgasm. It can be used as foreplay before other sex acts, such as vaginal or anal intercourse.
