Smells of Sex

That article describes pheromones and the way smells affect our libido.

What got me to thinking about this subject was that I sat next to a man at the theater the other evening. He was with a date. He had terrible body odor and yet the girl seemed to have no problem holding his hand and kissing him (meanwhile I was dying and gasping for fresh air! LOL) Got me to thinking...

Part 1

Could you kiss someone with bad breath?
Could you have sex with someone who stunk?
Would you suggest taking a shower together? (or for breath, would you hint about brushing teeth and swilling some mouthwash?) How would you handle it?

I realize if you love the person it probably wouldn't matter as much-plus you would be able to tell them without hurting their feelings or being embarrassed to bring it up. Just curious.

Part 2

Does anyone else here besides me LOVE the smell OF sex? Gosh- the way the room (or the car !!!) smells after you're done...well, it is enough to excite me and turn me on all over again. Anybody else feel that way?

Part 1

If it's an occasional thing like he had garlic bread for lunch of just got back from the gym and didn't have time to shower there, I can overlook it. Let's face it...humans stink sometimes.

I've been on the other end of it though, where he was a nice, good looking guy but his personal hygeine was terrible. He ran his own business, mostly from home, so he didn't feel he had a reason to, oh, shower. Ever. Unless we were going someplace. He finally asked why I wasn't more affectionate and I was honest. He cleaned up his act, so to speak.

Smell can also make a big difference if it's a good smell too. I knew a guy a while ago who was just average looking or maybe even a little geeky, but whatever cologne he wore never failed to make me want to tear his clothes off anyway.

Part 2

Don't love it, don't hate it. Doesn't really do much for me though.

I am a confirmed sensualist and loved the tantalizing smells that accompany lovemaking!

I agree with Iris...it depends on the situation. First thing in the morning, I love kissing my husband, but not for very long. I don't have a problem telling him to brush his teeth. We've been married to damn long to pussyfoot around stuff like that!
I can't recall having sex with someone who stank from lack of personal hygiene. However, I have enjoyed several encounters with someone who has just finished a rousing game of football or who was working on the car and got me all dirty, too.
I think the problem with being able to say "Hey! You stink, let's take a shower" stems more from the fact that we don't get to know the people we have sex with. I mean really...if you couldn't say something like that to a person, what the hell are you doing getting naked and exchanging the most intimate act two people can share???

And you're definately not alone -- I LOVE the smell of sex. It makes me want more, usually

I agree. If it is just a one time thing then maybe it is OK, depending on what has happened or where he/ she just came from. But for me, a woman has to take care of herself as I take care of myself. Now morning breath is a common thing, therefore it's a common situation. But if you are going out and you kiss your sig other and smell or taste what should be left on the table or other, then something is wrong.

Then again, some people cannot help it, and it is a glandular problem. I knew a man while I was in the army, and no matter how much he took care of himself, his roomate always complained and and outsider could tell as well. It is just one of those things where the human body doesn't play fair.

Yes being inlove does put a feather in the cap so to speak. What I mean is take this for example. When two get to gether and are dating they clench their ass cheecks together to avoid fartin with the other around. After a while, when the two get used to one another, it doesnt matter. Kind of like walking in while the other is taking a dump or a leak. If a person has a glandular problem as mentioned above, after a while one may get used to it and not be bothered by it as those on the outside are.

Just my two cents worth, if it matters or not.

Well, just so you all know; I think that after sex, the room smells like canteloupe. I'm I weird? Oh well... I don't think I could have sex with someone who stunk. When my little marathon runner boy friend gets home from a 26 mile jog in the park (as he calls it), I always make him take a shower. I don't even want to sit next to him after that! B.O. doesn't really bother me that much, but he brings in the smells of outside as well, like chimney smoke and some other unidentifiable scent. As for bad breath... I don't like milk breath. I know that sounds odd, but milk always leaves a weird taste in my mouth afterwards. Same with coffee, too. I think that covers it...
