Probably because it ends with the guy blowing his load.

The 'below-job' sounds quite plausible.
Could it be because the giver's cheeks are sometimes distended by something prodding them from inside (can't think what it is) - thus giving the appearance that they are blowing?

Apparently, the term comes from Victorian England. Remember that at that time folks would refer to women of questionable character as "blowsy?" (Think about literature you've read.) Well, "blow" was slang for ejaculate. So, getting a blow job meant creating an ejactuation in the man. Thus, "blow job" is from the masculine perspective of what happens to the man (rather than some odd, ineffective action on the part of the partner). Once again, the masculine bias reigns!

Yup, what kettswingers blow is an old word for the ejaculation. Also the whaling cry of 'thar she blows' is a similar usage.
I don't know so much about blowing hot and cold. Something about menthol and chilli I think.

term blow job comes from old farming practise where a wide tube was inserted into the vagina off a cow, then the farmer would blow into the cows vagina, this stimulated lactation...... milk production.

i remember at school a girl who took the name literally, and when she and her bloke first "did it" she got down on her hands and knees and started to blow on his cock!! very funny

A blowjob is (apparently) a deformation of "a below job" - which was a service provided by prostitutes in pubs or taverns many a year ago. Courtesy of Stephen Fry on QI a few months ago... Dunno if that's the true derivation but sounds good to me.
