Pussy Flavor

[AWhoopsieDaisy]

I'm getting really tired of reading descriptions of vaginal discharge bring sweet in erotica. If her vagina is sweet to the taste without the help of flavored lube, something is medically wrong.

At any given time you're tasting her skin or her fluids. Skin is skin, tastes like skin. Fluids do vary but sweet isn't a healthy option. Tangy, salty, bland, watery, slightly sour are all normal and expected tastes.

This isn't a case where a girl can eat pineapple to taste better. It doesn't work like that. Drinking more water can help balance PH and steer away from sour, but that's about as much as a girl can do without risking infection.

As a lesbian I get whiplash every time I have to read a sentence twice to clarify "Her pussy tastes like WHAT?"

Mmmm, yeast infection, my favorite flavor.

I use "sweet" as a metaphor of it being very enjoyable. But of course it is not sweet. I also use it as an indicator of point on menstrual/ovulation cycle: it being sweetest at ovulation... but again, it is meant as a poetic metaphor for something desirable. What is wrong with that? Maybe it is a case of heterosexual men and lesbian/bi women having a different take?

Maybe it tastes sweet *to that person* because of their feelings for the owner of the pussy in question.

100% correct.

Maybe allow a little bit for poetic license at the expense of accuracy. “Her pussy had the taste and smell of an astringent fruit that had been picked before ripening “ MIGHT be more accurate but still hard to swallow from a literary view.

Daisy, it appears you have opened a can of worms here (if you will forgive me for the unappealing visual)

You're good. I like worms.

At that point why not lean into it and say it tastes like joy, rain or a cold summer morning.

 

[RandallOldman]

I always assumed that when someone says a pussy tastes sweet, it's metaphor or artistic license, whatever you call it.

It would never in a million years occur to me that someone meant that literally.

Light metallic flavors, like steel or iron, or aluminum, are nice and healthy. Fish means you don't wash often enough. To much iron flavor, and watch out, it's time for Ms Flow's monthly visit.

I'm mostly complaining about works that say shit like "her pussy tastes like peaches" or "sugar" or some other such nonsense. I understand poetry, but like, the intended poetry of "sweet" in particular is completely overshadowed by the fact that it's also a common symptom of infection.

It's not literal, but for us girls sweet is a huge red flag for our health. So like wouldn't it make sense to avoid the implication of illness and instead describe the flavor as something positive and beautiful but has no flavor. Like sunshine, joy, warmth or home?

 

[MillieDynamite]

Do lesbian vampires like eating menstruating pussy? Quirky, weird minds want to know.

*makes notes*... not sweet, fishy or yeasty... Al, Na, K, Li Cu, Ag, Au, Ni all ok... Fe ok in small doses or with carbon-based alloys... Mg, Cs, Fr probably going too far... worms, rain, under-ripe fruit and joy also good. Got it.

Can we cover rimming next?

It takes like heaven, or a maybe cold beer with a bourbon chaser which is right next to heaven.

Yes obviously. That's the fucking dream right there. If the narrator is a vampire "she tastes like blood and rain" is 100% flattering.

 

[NancyPan]

As a devoted pussy worshipper, I don’t care what others call it, nor how they experience it. To me, the scent and taste of my wonderful Wife is indescribable, beyond words. Although the scent drives me absolutely wild (I know it releases endorphins in my brain), it is even more so the position of submission of my face between Her legs and Her sounds of pleasure that bring me utter joy. How sweet it is!

For rimming the big concern would be describing it as metallic I think? Gay men chime in here. I eat pussy not ass.

I guess I'll have to think about that. I see the point. Not sure if going even more poetic might sound contrived. Though "home" is a good one. I might have used something like that more broadly about an MMC being between an FMC's legs, doing the deed.

It's a little silly, but it's metaphorical. It's hard to be accurate and to make it appealing at the same time. I'm just not sure if "Ah, the savory taste of the sea!" works that well, although maybe to some it would. Annie Lennox sang, "want to dive into your ocean," so there IS that. "Sweet as honey" might not be accurate, but it gets the appeal across better.

 

[BobbyBrandt]

As long as it doesn't make me wretch, it's "sweet".

In addition to artistic license, we should also consider an olfactory sensor license. While it was proven decades ago that the "taste map" of the tongue that many of us studied in school isn't accurate, it is known that certain taste buds are more sensitive to a particular taste than another and varies between individuals. That's why the same foods appeal to people differently.

Consequently, for someone with a large amount of sweet sensitive taste buds on the tip of their tongue, even what others might consider "fishy" could taste sweet to them.

Call me a pussy connoisseur all you want, I think everyone can come up with an attractive way to describe a pussy without implying it's sweet to the taste.

But does the fact that it COULD, really overshadow the strong association vaginal sweetness has with infection. Do you really want that to be a thought in a girl's head when she reads your work?

If a girl's only frame of reference for what would create a sweet taste is that it has be due to an infection, is that really something that a writer can predict or cater to?
