OTOH, there’s obviously some appeal to it or it wouldn’t be in so many pornos and so frequently referenced. Assuming the receiver has been ‘purged’ and is hygienic, is there a taste? Waaaaaaaaayyyyy TMI? Very well then. I have rimmed a female partner, and it didn’t have a specific taste, but what with the cunnilingus, squirting, and alcohol that is probably not a middle of the bell curve answer for this near the end of the bell curve question. I’ve been rimmed twice, once by a female partner who didn’t say anything about it and once by a male partner, who mentioned that I had a “really clean ass”. I didn’t ask any followup questions as I was rather distracted at the time. The More You Know… ---

This reminds me of an exchange between a me and a friend of mine: Friend: “Hey **SHAKES**! watch this!” (he kisses my then GF on the lips) ``` Me: "Yeah that's pretty funny wise-ass. Hey, how's my dick taste?" ``` Friend: “Mmm, small.” ``` Me: "Ouch!" ``` ---

I like 'em furry, so add that to the mix. But at the same time, an ass (ideally) doesn’t spend all day making fluids happen, so as long as it’s (reasonably) clean, you don’t have those competing flavors/scents. (And I’ve had my Hep A and Hep B shots ;)) \ ---

Penis- I have no idea, as I can’t reach mine. My wife says it tastes a little like stale sweaty skin, which she evidently enjoys. Other times, it tastes like her. Ass- my wife’s tastes musky. No, it doesn’t taste like shit. There is no shit there. In my experience, they’re actually pretty clean. She says mine tastes the same. Don’t be freaked out by it. It’s a most pleasurable sensation. ---

I know this question is like 9 months old, but I would love to answer it… I don’t thin I can describe the taste; it definitely does NOT taste like shit unless the person being rimmed is very un-hygenic (or the person doing the rimming is in to the uncleaned anus…) The taste is very pleasant - I have rimmed women and men, and there is no difference. There is an almost musky taste, though not like crotch musky. > [@Sampiro](#): > > Since the question’s been pretty much answered (skin), I’m going to ask a waaaaayyyy TMI question for anyone with the guts to answer it. > > What does _ass_ taste like? > > I’ve never rimmed or been rimmed and I have no desire to; it disgusts me on so many levels.
