Bad Smell *Down There* - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

Battlefield · 06-26-2003, 01:12 AM

Well, lately I've been going down on my gf. This is my first gf that I've done that for and I always expected the taste to be bad(although it really isn't). What shocked me was the SMELL. Sometimes it reeks like I dont know what, maybe shit + sweat? I've never smelled someone's ass before but this is probably as close as I've gotten.

Anyway it's pretty revolting and I'm not really sure how to tell her. I assume the smell comes from farting too much + a days worth of perspiration. So is there anyway to let her know and how can you solve the problem?

Nisses · 06-26-2003, 01:19 AM

you could suggest showering together? Would be fun as a warm-up too

Unfortunately after a few times I'm sure she'll have figured it out even without you telling her. Although that might be a solution too.

Jim Kata · 06-26-2003, 05:36 AM

Mrs. Kata doesn't let me go down there unless she has been in the shower within the past two hours. If not, she is overly cautious about me catching a whiff. Honestly...I don't even care. The very very few times I've been down there after a long while of no bathing, the smell and the taste were no problem. I just wish she would let me do it more often.

rogue49 · 06-26-2003, 05:49 AM

start with a shower for both of you at the same time.
a wash & play session is always fun.

SiN · 06-26-2003, 05:52 AM

if proper cleansing doesn't work, get her to a doctor (gynecologist) ASAP.

she could have an infection or soemthing.

ganon · 06-26-2003, 10:06 AM

But remember, once you get past the smell, you've got it licked!!
Just talk to her, let her know how much you like pleasuring her, but just like an armpit, ya gotta wash that thing before you start getting all up in it. I clean myself up before my wife goes to knobbing on me.

dimbulb · 06-26-2003, 11:35 AM

both of you should wash up together before starting. =)
its fun too...

its not nice to give oral if the other party hasn't washed it in a while.

bermuDa · 06-28-2003, 07:23 PM

is she a redhead? I've heard things x_X

Vizzini · 06-29-2003, 09:02 AM

Ya what was said above. Definately shower together. Also depends on the time of day (rather how long since last shower).

Besides taking a shower together is fun.

Bobaphat · 06-29-2003, 10:00 PM

Its common courtesy to at leave do a little clean up before going down. This goes both ways, remember that when she's sucking your dick

Jesus Malverde · 06-30-2003, 12:35 AM

Get her some Vagisil or something like a "feminine deodorant" for her panocha. But the shower will probably work best guey.

And just think: one day, you'll hit 40 and you'll be paying somebody for their used panties just so you can recapture that same smell.

gibingus · 06-30-2003, 01:03 PM

if all the hygenic suggestions fail, might i suggest a shave... or at least a close cropping with an electric trimmer... of the hair on the labia.

hair collects and retains those microscopic things that might smell funky.... like armpits for instance. as a bonus, she'll have increased sensitivity. try to be delicate in making the suggestion, some ladies take great offense at being asked to trim up their downunders. offering to trim (or let her trim) your own jungle is a good way to get it to happen.

as dr evil says, a freshly shaved scrotum can be quite breathtaking.

it was easy to convince the wife that she needed to get that wild thing under control... i told her it was much easier for me to go down on her and not pick hair outta my teeth hours later...

she's not missed a day yet.

World's King · 06-30-2003, 04:50 PM

Gross.

QuasiMojo · 06-30-2003, 05:45 PM

I think my face just fell off

don't worry, it won't happen to you!

good posted advice here...if all else fails, add a little something to the mix like a can of Bartlett pears and some whipped cream.
seriously!

LittleOralAnnie · 07-01-2003, 07:14 AM

The shoe being on the other foot here, men can have the same sweaty ballsack and butt stench as the ladies can.

Good solution is definitely to take a shower together, it's very erotic and gets the area clean.

Doing this will only work so many times before the other person might begin to wonder why you want them showered first. I think being honest is the best way to go. If the person stinks, try to tell them in a nice way to clean up first.

I prefer myself to be clean before I let anyone down in my southern region and prefer the same from my love.

oscar0308 · 07-01-2003, 07:51 AM

i cant believe you'd treat any woman that way Forks. its sounds condescending. is she your child? she's not dumb, if you start talking like that and making such oh-so-subtle hints like that, she's gonna figure it out and either be offended or embarassed.

also, it may have nothing to with hygiene. i had a gf that had a very strong odor no matter what we did or when we did it. trust me, it wasnt the hair.. you stick your nose in there enough, you'll figure out where it's coming from. my wife is just the opposite. we've spontaneously started fooling around when we had nothing but sleep planned after a long day and i've noticed any funk. it might be her personal odor.. as unsettling as that sounds.

i dont think this sounds like an infection. most infections have a fishy odor that is quite noticeable or a yeasty smell(like bread). she probably just sweats quite a bit during the day and needs to shower first- which by all means you should inspire her to do. also, you might suggest she do a bit of shaving down there as hair can retain odor even after washing.

sometimes certain individuals just have lax grooming habits. she may not be washing as thoroughly as she needs to and the odor is a result of that. invite her to your house and get in the shower with her. you should wash her areas and just happen to have some strong antibacterial soap ready(im talking medical quality stuff here). make it a very pleasant experience for her- but dont go soaping up her vagina that much as it may give her an infection she doesn't need(and this is not the source of the odor). stick to the other hole. use a soft bristle brush or a loofah and tell her you "like to wash it, it turns you on". i mean clean that thing well, its likely it hasnt been washed like this before(probably just a cursory rinse here and there). spread it apart and really get the crevices nice and clean. when you are satisfied its cleaned to your standards, reward her with a little licky licky. she will be looking forward to this the next time, i promise. (by the way, toss the loofah afterwards)

buy her some new underwear as old ones retain all kinds of nasty microbes that start rebreeding as soon as they are back on again- make sure they are breathable cotton. encourage her to take long soaking baths by purchasing some bath salts or mustard bath packets(these are great for skin purification and feel real nice).

finally (and most importantly) discuss wiping habits. toilet paper wiping is not sufficient for good hygiene. the odor is not affected by wiping. it is a good practice to wash after wiping whenever possible or to use some kind of flushable sanitary wet wipes. the odor is the enemy here, as allowing it to remain in this area will create further problems. how on Earth could you possibly discuss this with her? again, just bring her to your house and have the wipes in your bathroom for your personal use. talk about how important hygiene is to you and how you love using them. she will be intrigued and may even try yours. buy her a pack when you are at the store together and say, "you really should try these, they are great". anyways, good luck and don't be discouraged. hygiene is contagious and when she feels what really being clean feels like she will find it difficult to be unclean. im sure she will convert easily.

Forks, your a genius. Not only have you easily remedied his situation but you have also provided enough information here for anyone that will and has come across this type of similar situation. Great work and much appreciated by all who read it.

07-01-2003, 09:01 AM

I've come across women with strong odors and to my knowledge, they are particularly clean. But the smell being described here all together, (shit + sweat), that's just poor hygiene. Believe it or not, some women have little sense of the odors that can ooze from there. Some just have poor hygiene all together. I have one rule when it comes to going down on chicks. I have you know she just took a shower. and I don't mean within two hours I mean within the last half hour.

gibingus · 07-02-2003, 10:34 AM

nice rebuttal, forks. i wouldn't say you are extreme, you're just you. and the tfp is all about being just who you are.

i've shaved my body hair many times for swimming and for cycling. a lot of athletes and body builders do. the down side is that it if you shave and let it grow back, the hair is more coarse when it grows back in. and ingrown hairs suck. but getting into a bed with clean sheets just after shaving is a very cool feeling. a number of girls back then found the shaved thing to be a real turn on... but i also was working out constantly and was in the best shape of my life... so that might have had something to do with it too. these days i still keep my body hair trimmed with an electric clipper using a very low guard.

use of a bidet can also be a pretty nice thing for all parties concerned. they're quite common internationally, and in some countries, water pipes are built into the toilets.

i think good grooming is part of being polite and is not necessarily against nature or obsessive or repressive. i remember reading the "joy of sex" and noting a part where the smell of your lover's armit was supposed to be a turnon in some kind of earthy 70s pheremones kind of way. maybe that was liberating when it first came out, but it seems like the brazillian wax is the here and now.

Yeah thats kinda like me too. I don't want to go down on my wife unless she had showered recetly and the same for when she goes down on I just have this strange thing about piss and germs. I guess that leaves water sports out of the question.

Charlatan · 07-02-2003, 11:19 AM

Soap and water are all that is needed... Stay away from hygene spays, etc.

lostAtSea · 07-05-2003, 08:12 PM

What kind of tampons does she use?

I know a girl who wears the nicely scented tampons everyday, even when she's not on their period. Her excuse is that they want to stay fresh. And indeed, she usually smells like spring flowers down there!

You may want to buy her several boxes to start out and see if it doesn't improve the smell ...

smooth · 07-06-2003, 01:26 AM

Surprised no one has mentioned it...

besides all the tips you already have, odor is related to diet. Even after you've done all the other stuff feed up on a bunch of fruit.

Makes both of your juices tasty.

rodimus · 07-06-2003, 07:24 PM

no offense, but she probibly needs to scrub better down there

... i practically border on having OCD.

now that you mentioned that, yes, it does make sense the directions you gave and the in depth details. no, this isnt sarcasm or an insult.. i'm just saying that after reading that and looking back, yup, i can see it.

i dont fully agree with you on the extreme measures you take, but i also dont have the same exact idea of clean. in regards to the hair issue... if i washed my stinky pits well and shaved some hair off, came back 1/2 hr later, no.. i wouldnt expect it to smell, nor would i expect ass hair to smell either. i believe that any smell lingering down there that cant be attributed to personal odor to be due to something lacking in hygiene. ok, so i agree with you to an extent.

i also believe in trying to tell the truth your SO no matter what the issue. i'm not saying i have a good idea on how to tell her that her bits stink to high heaven, but i think that there's got to be a way rather than risk her figuring out what you were trying to trick her into. i think that would make any person feel embarassed and very insulted as opposed to just embarassed.

Nova_Dust · 07-07-2003, 01:01 PM

No matter how bad it smells, lick it.

I have seem worse, and I am still healthy and walking fine. That stuff won't kill ya...

trialzin · 07-09-2003, 03:49 PM

Nova_Dust Lick a smelly pussy? no way! I keep myself trimmed and very clean and I would expect he same from my partner, one night stand or not. The old saying once you get past the smell you got it licked is very wrong. I will agree each woman has her own oder but when it curls the hair in my nose there is something wrong here. Besides if you have facial hair the smell can stay with you a few days LOL

deadbabiesrhot · 07-09-2003, 03:59 PM

i, personally, like the smell. very much. its almost addictive...

actionplant · 07-10-2003, 12:26 AM

Chemistry IS a big part of it, but I know the nasty sweaty smell from wearing tight jeans and working in the sun all day, when I peel off for a shower at night I smell the exact same thing and don't get turned on by it. That would be a little odd.

And yes, I've been researching diet, simply because we've had a smell issue working against us for several months. I thought it was due to diet, but on talking with more people, she was recommended to talk with her gynecologist, who confirmed that something was amiss. They're now working to correct it; meanwhile, she shaved (to surprise me) and will sometimes take two long baths a day. Honestly, it really does help, and the diet change to fruit hasn't hurt either. There's still a lingering of whatever the problem is (quite possibly a resurgance of a yeast infection from a few years ago) but it isn't nearly as strong as it used to be.

As for talking about it, she asked one day if I didn't like to go down there. I told her of course I DID, or rather USED TO, but told her that lately it's just been really strong. I didn't say really bad, I know a lady's self esteem is a delicate and important thing. I didn't say bad, I just said stronger than usual and occasionally overwhelming, it just took some getting used to. I think that that was a lot easier for her to hear than "yeah, I hate it now, you reek like a dead fish." Be gentle, but be honest in as caring a manner as possible. It's not just her problem, it's something for the two of you to research and solve together. If she feels like you're a part of the solution, she'll be a lot more comfortable solving it WITH you and it won't be a point of contention at all.

They're now working to correct it; meanwhile, she shaved (to surprise me) and will sometimes take two long baths a day. Honestly, it really does help, and the diet change to fruit hasn't hurt either. There's still a lingering of whatever the problem is (quite possibly a resurgance of a yeast infection from a few years ago) but it isn't nearly as strong as it used to be. As for talking about it, she asked one day if I didn't like to go down there. I told her of course I DID, or rather USED TO, but told her that lately it's just been really strong. I didn't say really bad, I know a lady's self esteem is a delicate and important thing. I didn't say bad, I just said stronger than usual and occasionally overwhelming, it just took some getting used to. I think that that was a lot easier for her to hear than "yeah, I hate it now, you reek like a dead fish." Be gentle, but be honest in as caring a manner as possible. It's not just her problem, it's something for the two of you to research and solve together. If she feels like you're a part of the solution, she'll be a lot more comfortable solving it WITH you and it won't be a point of contention at all. __________________ I can't plug! Huh? Why not?
