"  1. He&amp;#039;s being a dickhead to you. Don&amp;#039;t reward that behavior. 2. You don&amp;#039;t feel like it. Obviously. 3. He won&amp;#039;t return the favor. According to a poll we took, 70 percent of you have gone out with a guy who expected oral sex but wouldn&amp;#039;t give it in return. Be honest with yourself and admit you&amp;#039;d rather date a Nickelback fan than that dude. 4. Too much hair. Just because he doesn&amp;#039;t have a clitoris you need to find does not mean you ordered a hair salad with this sexual encounter. 5. Smell. Shower required. 6. If anything about putting your face down there makes you uncomfortable. Maybe you&amp;#039;ve never been around a really enormous penis, or an uncircumcised one, or a really short and fat one. Be nice about it (he can&amp;#039;t change it, after all, and maybe you&amp;#039;ll come to like it!) but you are under no obligation to put your mouth on a penis that freaks you out. If you want to give it a try, ask him about it. He probably has some tips. 7. If he&amp;#039;s pushing your head down. The worst. 8. If your knees are super-sore from exercise class. That hour-and-a-half power vinyasa can really do a number on you. 9. If you&amp;#039;re too tired. In the words of Mahatma Gandhi Samantha Jones, &amp;quot;They don&amp;#039;t call it a job for nothing.&amp;quot; 10. If your meticulously-applied matte lipstick looks awesome. Besides, he won&amp;#039;t be psyched about having a red ring around his peen afterwards. 11. If you&amp;#039;re only doing it because you feel like it&amp;#039;s required foreplay. Obligatory sexual acts are generally not fun for anybody. And even if it is fun for him, screw it. 12. If he starts doing that thrusting thing down your throat and you&amp;#039;re not into it. Some people like to be gagged during blowjobs, but if you&amp;#039;re not one of them, just stop and wait for him to notice you&amp;#039;ve stopped. It&amp;#039;s the &amp;quot;Third grade teacher holding up her hand in a noisy classroom until all the kids are silent&amp;quot; technique. 13. When it looks like something is wrong with his penis, STD-wise. But I hope I don&amp;#039;t have to tell you that. 14. When you&amp;#039;re annoyed with him for any reason. The moment you sublimate your annoyance in favor of sex (not in the &amp;quot;hot makeup sex&amp;quot; way, in the &amp;quot;lets just get this over so we can watch Modern Family in frosty silence&amp;quot; way) is the moment a relationship starts to shrivel and die like a salt-slug. 15. When you have stuffy nose. When blowjobs turn dangerous! 16. In the shower. There is a reason that &amp;quot;waterboarding&amp;quot; is an official torture technique. 17. If he demands that you swallow. Deciding to swallow yourself is all good. But a guy who expects it of you is pretty uppity. 18. You ask him to wear a condom and he refuses. Whether you use a condom during a blowjob is a personal decision, but if he won&amp;#039;t wear one after you&amp;#039;ve made it clear that you want him to, that&amp;#039;s a dealbreaker. (Ed. note: No. 6 has been rephrased to reflect that lack of circumcision is no reason to refuse oral sex. If it makes you uncomfortable, talk to your partner about how you can both have a comfortable, enjoyable experience.) Follow Anna on Twitter.
