I don’t know why peopel are so grossed out by it. You do realize you can clean “down there” right? It’s not like you’re taking a dump while it happens. For me, part of the fun is showering togethre (or bathing) can cleaning each other. It’s all intimate and soapy, and afterwards, you can pretty much do anything comfortably. 😛 ---

female no no n/a i dunno if i’d be comfortable with it or not. I’m pretty sure my SO would not like it. maybe someday i might try it. i’m not repulsed or anything, i just dont find any pleasure in stimulating that area myself, so i doubt i would like anyone else doing it ---

I would never presume to say YOUR tongue had been anywhere near any cunnies, if that’s not what you’re in to. Although I still believe in being flexible 😛 Oh, and for everybody talking about the “ewww” factor, you do realize the penis is also an excretory organ, don’t you? Ewwww! And look at some of the stuff that comes in and out of the mouth. And yet people kiss on the first date! Look, wash first, get over it, live a little 😛 😛 😛 ---

OK, who else saw that episode of _Sex in the City?_ I just have this image of a guy wiggling his ass in Miranda’s nervous face, with her finally blurting out “I DON’T WANT TO DO THAT!” When the foursome were chatting over lunch, they all squealed “EWWWWW!” except little wholesome Charlotte, who said her hubby loved it. (Miranda: “Okay, I am definitely behind on the times when _Charlotte_ is further up the sexual curve than I am.” My personal opinion: Ew. I wouldn’t mind trying to digitally stimulate the area, but licking it I just ain’t ready for. ---

F N Y More surprised than anything. I kept wondering what would drive him to do this, and has he really thought this through. ---

1)Male. 2)Yes. 3)Yes 4)Natch. I fail to see what the big deal is… maybe it’s because GF is fairly uninhibited. It’s just a normal part of everyday nookie. ---

Um, Musicat, we’ve already established that this is generally done pretty immediately post-washing. Why wouldn’t one kiss? By definition, it’s cleaner than the mouth being kissed. What do you think, buttholes are toxic? It was Lady Macbeth’s _hands_ that resisted “all the perfumes of Arabia…” ---

Yeah, you can wash it all you want, but unless you’re willing to scrub up in and around there with a toilet brush I ain’t believing it’s clean enough for my tongue. But you all do what you want 🙂 ---
