Well, languages and meanings change over time. Take American English they still, commonly, use words that Brits haven't used in 150 years or so. Also, I guess, when a decent euphemism lands it sticks around for a long long time even if the euphemism, like Blow, is no longer used in that regard. Language is an odd thing.I guess the "Giving someone an orgasm" euphemism of "blow" came from blowing your load.
But it's just odd for sucking dick, which involves the literal opposite.
Giving head makes sense.
Going down makes sense.
Giving a woman a plate (licking the plate clean) makes sense.
Blow job does not, really.
