Fingering is when a person touches a female’s genitals. Many people think fingering is only when someone puts a finger or fingers inside the vagina. Some females like this, but many like it better when someone rubs or strokes the clitoris, a small bump of skin above the vagina opening. That’s most likely to give a girl an orgasm.

A hand job is when someone rubs and strokes a man’s penis. Most guys like a steady up and down motion. Some like to use powder or lotion to make the penis more slippery and to reduce friction on the skin.

Both hand jobs and fingering are sexual behaviors that can feel really good, create orgasms for people and have little or no risk of disease or pregnancy.
