[QUOTE=Cervaise]  
With regard to (healthy) pussy, does it taste good because it tastes good, or does it taste good because it’s pussy?  
[/QUOTE]

Does beer taste good because it tastes good, or does it taste good because it’s beer? The answer is yes.

[QUOTE=Freudian Slit]  
Huh? I’m not sure what you mean by “whatever went in briefly…”  
[/QUOTE]

Usually, when you stick something in a hoo-ha, it doesn’t stay in there very long (at a time, anyway). I was wondering more what “A few women, when they’ve asked me” meant.

We were discussing this at trivia tonight, and after a long conversation, we came to this conclusion:

We never want to see you in person again, because this was _way_ TM-friggin’-I. Best of luck with your new team, wherever you may find them.

😉

(We also decided that this Ben and Jerry’s flavor would be a ripple, not a chunk.)

Yeah, well, next time our team finishes fourth, you know what I will want to suggest as a round topic.

It’s funny. It’s not a taste I would like to have for dinner, but in its proper context there’s nothing better. When I’m yumming away, I have to stop occasionally just to savour the scent, the taste, the presence. It’s wonderful.

[QUOTE=Autolycus]  
Moments like this call for experimentation.

IMO the part of fanny noshing that really gives out flavor is the juice. So, first, we gather some pussy juices, from a variety of pussy types: young, old, clean, dirty, etc etc. The rest is simple. Half the subjects will be told they are drinking pussy juice, while the other half won’t be told what they are drinking. If the subjects who weren’t told it was pussy juice liked it, then pussy juice is objectively good-tasting.

OK it needs some work but I think it’s on the right track!  
[/QUOTE]  
hmm, provided everything is clean, would a person get into legal trouble for such an experiment? just wondering.

It really depends on the woman, and I do think there is a connection to a healthy lifestyle. My current GF is quite yummy.

On further reflection, it seems clear to me that “The Yumminess of the Healthy Hoo-Ha” is the rightful sequel to “The Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood.”

And you missed your chance at a fourth-place topic last night. I decided I’d pick all the rounds for next week.

I was away, pardon the absence.

**Cervaise** nailed it. Like that. Could be a finger, could be penis, hell, it could be a candy cane (don’t knock it til you try it).

It depends on the woman. Some women have sort a an almost sweet yet musky undertone. Others have a bitter and yes, fishy scent.  
One woman I dated had the best tasting and to me anyway, the best tasting vagina ever.  
I actually kept one hand out of the shower for two days just to keep the scent on my hand.  
It didn’t hurt that she was enthusiastic with my efforts.

Overall, I can get past the taste/smell as long as the woman is enjoying what I’m doing.

While I’m sure that a candy cane would help to make the season bright, it does come with a caveat: Sugary treats may make for fun phalluses, but my (limited) understanding is that they often lead to yeast infections. Ultimately, those are no fun for either participant.

It’s about the (hopefully) moaning, writhing female attached to your mouth. It would have to be a really putrid taste to make _that_ unpleasant.  
[/QUOTE]  
Yep. If you’re in a beautiful, well-tuned, competent sports car you may be getting thrown from side to side like a slinky on a rollercoaster, the sounds you hear may be the wearing of expensive metal and rubber and fully cognizant of the fact you’re in a near-death situation, yet the sensation is insanely freakin’ marvelous.

Driving the healthy hooha of a woman you fancy ain’t a far cry from it.

Your analogy breaks down when you consider that you really only want one of those things fully gassed up.

Actually, I was able to tell when a former girlfriend was about 2 days from a UTI or 3 from a yeast infection because she “went sour”.

Otherwise, it’s fun. Like drinking at your favorite bar, if it was filled with naked women that will have sex with you.

I’ve never really thought about the taste, except for the previously mentioned “copper” taste as iron rich blood rushes to the region during the big O.

I think the taste region of my brain must be the first to lose blood as other regions of my become engorged.
