It’s not about you that’s the entire point. It’s about how the phrase is used socially. People call other people “retarded” and don’t “mean anything by it” but I think most people agree it’s just not ok to say because of the broader issue. You clearly are not a stupid person. I know you know what I am talking about. Stop trying to win an online argument and think about the people around you for just a second.

Honestly, I think it's a bigger problem to be stigmatising oral sex like this. But you're entitled to your opinion, and no hard feelings.

EDIT: I should add that an unrelated metaphor, saying something/someone "sucks dick", does apply to your argument, and I would agree that it's disparaging. Perhaps you're confusing your fellatio metaphors.
