    Woman's taste....

    I apologise if this topic has been done before.

    I'm interested in finding out if men notice when they go down on their partner if she tastes different during different times of the month.

    Also curious as to how men describe the taste and if unpleasant so they keep going or stop.....

    For me.....(sorry if too much information) but I know my partner can kiss me immediately after going down on me and sometimes there is no taste of me on his lips other times I can definitely taste myself. When that happens I don't want him going down on me anymore but he insists he wants to - says he loves my taste....in fact he prefers I don't shower immediately before as he says he wants to taste me not soap......

    Is there foods/drinks to stay away from or to have lots of to taste good?

    From my experience, a woman will have a different scent and taste different just before before her period. Of course, this is also true during her period but the day before her period will be subtler. With my wife before menopause I also noted that her skin was softer and she was more likely to be interested in sex. The scent she had was muskier and the taste was a slight metallic taste of iron. My wife used to think I was psychic due to my detecting her muskiness and initiating sex.

    I understand and agree with your husband about going down on a woman. If it happens right after a shower, there is the taste and scent of soap, depending on how well it is washed off. If there isn't the traces of soap then often there is no taste and no scent. Not unpleasant but not as exciting as it could be.

    After a couple of hours it is likely she has taken a pee (she should probably do it before sex, anyhow) and has had a very slight amount of perspiration. That combination of the slightest trace of pee and the slightest trace of perspiration can be intoxicating. I would have to say it seems unique but probably varies a bit due to her diet. Something triggering the memory of that scent/taste will bring back good memories years later.

    Your husband is not kidding you. He is telling you precisely what is turning him on.

      Disregard this if you only wanted men's input, but ....

      I'm not aware of any foods that affect how we taste, don't know that it works the same way as the pineapple/cum thing for men. Also, women's cum (ejaculate) can taste a lot different than our 'natural' flavor and is most often nearly tasteless. The natural lube/moisture/etc. in our vaginas can be very flavorful tho of course, and I think it actually comes down more to general hygiene than anything else. In my experience, a woman with good overall hygiene still tastes good no matter what time of the month it is, even if the taste does change a bit to being a bit more 'earthy,' altho some of us have challenges in that area that can affect that more than others and possibly tip the scales into it being unpleasant.

      All things being equal, while it's hard to describe the taste (because I think there's not a lot in nature that quite tastes like it - certainly no food that I'm aware of), I think personally that it's one of the greatest flavors there is. Pretty much all of my lovers have been devoted to being in the zone there and don't want out under any circumstances, so I think it's actually pretty natural that your man wants to stay there at all costs. Phrases like "you taste amazing" come to mind lol, and they're a bit beyond "you taste okay" or "I can tolerate this I guess." I think you know it must be pretty good when they want to get it all over themselves like a cat in catnip.

        jen, I love comparing notes with you on subjects such as this.

              People's sweat tastes and smells different because of what we eat, so I'm guessing that this is somehow related to food and of course that time of the month.

                I often taste myself on Graham after he goes down on me, or sometimes when I masterbate I taste myself as I love the taste. Mine certainly changes depending on my time of the month, but it's more just the strength of the taste rather than the taste itself. Generally, if a guy wants to keep going, let him, he obviously likes the taste. And don't worry.

                  I TOTALLY! agree with what Jen has said and I couldn't have put it any better.I think that she said all.Out of the few women I that have went down on during sex.I can that I loved the way everyone of them tasted and smell.Going down on a woman or she having me to go down on her is one of my BIGGEST turnons and something that I love doing ALOT!!

                    The way we taste differs according on what TOM it is,, it can go from a bit bitter, ‘not a bad bitter’ to a sweet, semi taste, where guys seem to always taste the same to me, kind of like salty butter.
