I have the exceptional privilege of having a man that absolutely loves to go down town, if you know what I mean. And I do mean for hours at a time. It’s uh-may-zing.
However, after previously being in a relationship for seven years with a man who’s idea of foreplay was honking my boobs like they were stress release balls, it took me awhile to get used to the new sensations. Not to mention, getting rid of the insecurity of having a man “down there.”
You know, the questions a lot of girls ask themselves when a man goes muff diving:
Should I excuse myself and go wash up first?
Do I smell okay?
What if I taste bad?
Thankfully, I’ve learned a few things that can ease the tension, which allows me to just lay back, relax, and enjoy the ride. Quite literally, as apparently I “buck like a bronco” according to some…
1. Probiotics Help Keep Things In Check
Taking a daily women’s probiotic is an all around good choice. Not only does it help keep things such as Bacterial Vaginosis (BV) and yeast infections at bay, it’ll aid in the smell and taste of your vajayjay.
That’s because probiotics help balance the bacteria down there, so you won’t have to worry about an overabundance of the bad bacteria – the thing that makes you not so fresh.
2. PH Balanced Body Washes Are Your Friend
I love washing with a body wash that smells like coconut and vanilla as much as the next girl, but let’s face it ladies – those washes aren’t doing us any favors when it comes to our hoohaas. The perfumes and additives can lead to a host of problems: irritation, altering the pH balance of our vaginas, and bacteria infections.
3. Cotton Undies: Not Just For Keeping Infections At Bay
Although that should be reason enough to choose a pair of 100% cotton undies over a silky pair. Sure, those silky panties are tres’ chic, but they aren’t doing you any favors in the smell department. The lack of breathability traps sweat and odors, leading to feeling not-so-fresh when it’s time to get down.
You could rush off to the bathroom right before and clean yourself up, but what a mood killer! Go for the cotton panties that lets your bits breath, and you’ll be able to go from making out to eating out without skipping a beat.
4. Put Down The Cigarettes
As if the myriad of other health reasons weren’t good enough to give up the sticks, smoking also affects your smell and taste as well. Ever heard the saying that kissing a smoker is like kissing an ash tray? Well, going down on a smoker is like sticking your tongue directly in the ash tray and slurping it down. No one should be put through that.
5. Pineapple Juice Isn’t Just a Man’s Friend
You might have heard that pineapple juice makes a guy’s cum taste delicious if he drinks enough pre-felatio. It’s true, and the same goes for a woman. Diet is an extremely important factor in how you taste and smell, and the healthier you eat, the better you’ll be.
On days I know my man and I will be getting down, I make sure to avoid things such as red meats, alcohol, coffee, sugar, high processed foods, and asparagus. I’ll totally chow down on fresh fruit such as bananas, pineapples, apples, and berries for the day.
Not only do I feel super sexy at the end of the day from how healthy I’ve eaten, I get compliments about how sweet I taste. Win win for everyone.
There you have it. The best part about being conscious of how you smell and taste to keep your lover enjoying the buffet, is that you’re actually taking care of yourself as well.
The health of your vagina will thank you, your lover will thank you, and the delicious orgasm you’ll achieve when you’re able to let yourself relax and enjoy that amazing pussy licking will be your body’s way of thanking you.
Bon Appétit
