    Adult thumb sucking

    Adult thumb sucking (ATS) is much more common than most realize and is relatively unknown because of the fact that it is hidden.
    It's actually a much more healthy way of experiencing calm than, say, smoking, gambling or overeating. What's more, it's free, legal, convenient and more. As for the teeth, yea, some are affected (VERY few) but most that are just think it makes the habit more comfortable.

    Give him your thumb and betcha you'll both enjoy the results....

      Wow. The idea of my guy sucking my thumb like a baby is actually quite erotic and intriguing!

        Hmmm, very unusual question and can't say that I've ever heard about a guy actually being a thumb-suck at an age more than say 6+. Most guys I know who would discover such a thing would immediately result in the wildest of eye rolling -- at the least -- to an avalanche of laughter & more at the most. In either event, the dude would never live it down which is why it is understandably kept extraordinarily confidential.

          I am a private thumbsucker, closet smoker and former overeater. I guess oral fixation is what its dubbed by some. I stay busy put in in my mouth, its like a nervous tick. I chew on pens and pencils, pop gum constantly, bite my hair, bite my nails, etc etc.

          I was able to kick the over-eating bit, but have not managed to drop all the other habits. I don't suck my thumb in public, usually it'll happen in the dark, engrossed in a movie and I don't even realize I am doing it until I do and stop.
          Scars remind us of where we've been...they don't have to dictate where we're going.
