A question about smell

---

Ok, so for the first time the other night i was going to go down on my girl friend. She's a virgin and has only had oral once and i've never done it before. When i got down there after doing my foreplay thing making sure she was turned on, it was definetly not a good smell. It was like very musty BO and i could smell it from about about 6 inches away and it was very strong, almost made me gage. Needless to say, i couldn't continue with what i wanted to do. I know it's not supposed to smell really that good by any means, but i mean come on. I talked to some friends about it and they said she should just splash some water in there and that should help.

Anwyay, any other suggestions are much needed. More so i need to know how to bring it up to her in a fashion that she won't get self conscious. She's not to experienced with this kind of thing and has a tendancy to get self concious when it is brought up. I love her very much and really want to please her with this, but the smell was just to much for me. The thing is she takes it as a personal flaw rather then just a natural problem that needs to be taken care of, so any ideas? U guys always come through for me.

she really needs to wash down there. with soap and water.

yup like java said, she needs to wash. Pussy shouldnt smell bad if its clean. I heard someone else say this on another post similar to this. Maybe you two should shower together, get in there and start fingering her, but in reality you are just cleaning her. After the shower when you go down on her again tell her you love how she smells right after a shower.

oh good idea, that way you can take care of the problem and please her at the same time (course you'll have to do it regularly to keep the smell away)

i think it would be good if he told her after the shower that he loved the "fresh" smell, like everytime you know. That way its in her head that he likes it clean smelling.on yea one more thing, i dunno what kinda of reaction soap may cause if you got it into her vagina and rubbed it around. For most guys getting soap in their urethra would cause a burning and itching sensation until he pisses a few times. Not a pleasant feeling. All I'm saying is becareful about rubbing soap directly into her vagina.Any girls here, if you can tell us what happens if soap gets into your vaginas please tell.

ive never really had any soap get up there when washing my self, and im a very clean person (almost to neat freak standards) but if i had, i couldnt notice or tell.

Wow, i love that shower idea. I didn't think it was supposed to smell that bad and like i said, it's something i really want to do for her, but it was just to much. Thanks so much for your help, really appreciate it. The soap thing i don't know about, but water would be better then nothing i assume.I've also heard that the smell flucuates depending on where the girl is on her cycle, is there any truth to this? Thanks again.

if shes on her period there is a smell thats for sure (but why in hell would you eat her out on her period?!) other then that i do not think so. and your right, it is NOT supposed to smell lmao and i dont blame you for not being able to continue.

You are not the first with this dilemma. Guys stink too but you never hear girls complain about it. You are a nice guy to be concerned about her self esteem and this is really a sensitive subject. I think the best approach would be the shower routine. However depending on where you are it may not be an option. Tell her that you want to make sure that you are "squeaky" clean for her and perhaps she will get the hint. Other options would be to have some fragranced towelettes like Mothers use on babies to clean yourself in front of her. You can give her some as well to do the same. I have never tried the flavored lubrication gels but they might help mask the odor. If the odor is internal the smell will continue. If it is external the wipes should take care of it. Soiled underwear is often a source of odors. Good luck.

No No No No No. No fragrent anything down there with a girl. bacteria, allergies, rashes, (hell lets call it the 10 plagues of the vagina)

I use baby wipes on myself, after sex, if its late at night and i can't be bothered to get in the shower straight away etc........and since they are designed for babies bottoms, they are fine. As for soap, well i have always used soap to wash myself down there, even tho now you're told not to use soap, but i have used it every day and never had any stinging etc............I think abc's idea of the shower is a lovely idea, showering together is really nice, and can get VERY steamy and not just cos of the hot water LOL I think its lovely that you are so concerned about her self esteem..........good luck hon

Hello everyone I'm new on this site. Nice photo Angelwitch! I have to agree, taking a shower with your mate is great. You can both scrub each other up and down and all around.

oh im sure baby whipes are fine i dont want him getting the idea that he can spray body spray or something to make the smell go away lmao.

Hey hon welcome to the boards.....and thanks

I like the shower idea that has been suggested. I would do that first, then if it still smells bad just bring up something about hygenie, but do it not BAM YOU SMELL thing, but bring it up slightly. See if she can do something about it.

wow, great ideas, definetly going to try this stuff out. I just had another idea. I've played around with ice before and what not, what if i do this and while my hands are wet go down there and start to finger for a while. After a bit of that go for oral? My only concern is cold hands, but i think it's a concept i could work with. The water from my hand would clean it out at least a bit and she wouldn't even really be aware of that's what i was doing and if she likes the ice, even better!

that might not do anything due to no rinsing.

Does she have alot of hair, sometimes the hair can capture the musty smell.

Agreed, would be best to stick to the shower first.
