Presumably it refers to oral sex....In the past, oral sex among gay men was not comfortably accepted by society, therefore, society had to declare their inability to cope with it by name calling or skirting the issue. (no pun intended)...However, after watching that Steven Hawkins special on black holes...I realize that sucking has to do with increased Gravity in a negative light that brings about the end to whatever or whomever gets stuck in that vortex or increased gravitational pull. Society might have once felt animosity for oral sex as it relates to gay men's sexual practices, but it has nothing to with gay men giving oral sex, anymore...

"Sucking" has taken on a much more global or galactic perspective to the point where the origin of the sucking is more closely related to the earth's gravitational pull, as well as, the increased gravitational pull of an actual black hole...that would bring someone to their knees, or to their demise, for a much different reason...

Therefore, increased gravitational pull or added stress upon our daily lives...is actually what sucks us down further than the normal stress of life...So, things that add gravity to our lives, SUCK! Whether the added gravity is favorable or not seems to be a personal preference...or whether or not someone can express this perceived stress without saying, "That sucks!" is also a personal choice.

I don't think people are saying anything about oral sex when they say things like: you're a sucky driver!, you suck!, this sucks! that sucks! none of this has anything to do with oral sex. Instead, "sucking" has to do with the fact that people are feeling added stress or gravity from an unfavorable situation, but oral sex has nothing to do with feeling increasing gravity in a negative light in today's world.

My understanding is the term predates any reference to oral and refers instead to "soul-es-you-cee-kay-eye-en-gee.", an old term that has to do with a sense an antagonist is stealing one's soul energy.

The phrase "that sucks" comes from when it used to refer to when someone was saying someone "sucked dick", thus it has a most distasteful and very crude origin, and in this writer's opinion, this phrase should be avoided at all cost. It is impolite and improper, crude slang.

It originally had a homosexual connotation attached to the use of a word to describe someone. This was in the 80s.
