i hooked up with my ex once (she had an aversion to oral when we went out), after being married and divorced.. er at least going thru it, we hooked up and she was able to take me all the way till my balls were on her chin and her nose was at my pubes..
at 8" id say thats a pretty decent accomplishment.. my fiance can't do that (she can get about half down, and just a wee bit more if shes drunk or super horny/relaxed), but she's better overall at giving head, and my ex was fantastic. hehe so i can't complain
