"Salad tossing" is the act of licking someone's
asshole, often preceded by kissing and licking their ass cheeks and ass crack, and often accompanied by kissing and fingering their
asshole. A true salad tossing enthusiast will also insert the tip of his or her tongue into the
asshole of his or her partner. Salad tossing is often considered a sign of respect, affection, and even
love, because, as should be obvious, you don't stick your tongue up just anybody's
ass.
Salad tossing is often performed as a part of traditional oral sex, before, during, or after it. The "tossee" may lie on his or her stomach, allowing easy access to the entire
ass. Another option is for the tossee to place his or her legs over the tosser's shoulders thus allowing access to the
asshole. This position is particularly useful if the tosser is on his or her knees. Since much of the tossee's weight is supported by the tosser, this position is generally more comfortable for a male tosser and a female tossee. Although this position makes access to the entire
ass more difficult, it does allow access to both the
asshole and the genitalia, so that salad tossing and oral sex may be performed together.
For the sake of reference, the author notes that the salad tossing
scene in HBO's "Girls" series (see below), in which the tosser shakes his head from left to right like a hungry dog in heat with a new rawhide, was poorly performed, but did serve the purpose of exposing salad tossing to a new audience.
