With the same intention as cutting, except trying to avoid scarring. The scratcher will usually use something sharp to the touch but not pure metal, for example, a bobby pin without the plastic coating or a safety pin as opposed to a knife, scissors, razor, pencil sharpener blade, etc.
It's not cutting, it's scratching.

Verb: To 69, or conduct oral sex with your partner while they simultaneously reciprocate.

In a more common context, the word "scratch" is applied to the activity of rasping, or digging with the fingers, or nails. Examples of this useage can be seen in the phrase, "You scratch my back, I'll scratch yours." In this slang context, that phrase is amended to, "You suck my junk, I'll lick yours." Of course, those verbs can be further amended to allow for gay/lesbian scratching, or different oral techniques.
"John, I've douched... you ready for a nice scratch?"

Verb: The self-stimulation of a female's external reproductive organs, especially through repeated back-and-forth motions. This word is most accurately applied when the female is getting a "quick fix", and masturbating through her undergarments. "Scratch" is both a description of the motions involved with, and sound produced by this word's proper execution.
