BB drinks lots of water and just started the cranberry juice about a week age. She does the pee-sex-go to sleep-wake up-pee or pee-sex-pee rarely if she can. I read several places where you should also (both parties) FM-rinse, M wash/rinse before sex. I would but BB says it/washing dries her out.

BB is kind of set in her ways and somewhat picky like JJ's H I imagine. ( I would like them to be on "Wife Swap" they wouls get along great in the sex dept but with both being picky sometimes, I wonder how that woud go?)

We talked about the fishy / tidal pool smell (or lack of smell from MPOV) but my opinino had little value. I said I think my butt stink sometimes when I sit to pee but standing up, I don't detect any butt smell. I speculated everyone smelled a little if the spread their legs and fanned their crotch a little but you aren't that exposed just walking around normally.

BB does shower often (10AM) and I never smell anything unless I stick my nose in her crotch. BB can't smell the 3 cat boxes, the cat urine on the old carpets (removed) when she had 6 cats but she detects the strangest things sometimes, some from her imagination.

Something stinky happened at work one time and she smelled it at home the next day or two. Sometimes when we come home she smells strange things but says she cant smell her food very well.

We live about 5 miles from a refinery and they remove the sulphur from the crude oil, among many other things, but most of the time the outside air smells OK. One of my customer's live 50 miles from town because she is extremely sensative to sulpherdioxide/SO2. Most people don't notice the SO2.

The fishy smell, real or imagined, is part of her lack of interest in sex, no hormones, no desire problems. Also, She was sucked in to the marketing campaigms back in the 1960 douche companies like Summer's Eve were pushing. I think she still buys in to what I see was the companies hidden message was back then, that vaginas smell and everyone could tell you had sex, from the smell you supposedly emitted.

The UTI articles all say douching and washing with soap internally kill the good bacteria and leaves the bad bacteria a place to grow faster. There is also the PH factor that is disturbed if you douch. Rinseing with with water on the outside is usually the best.

It doesn't last forever, right!



HP. No ths smell does not last for ever but the feeling of going w/o feels like forever IYKWIM!

I'm with you. A little fishy smell is good. It reminds me how connected I felt when we did ML.

I am asking about feelings associated with female condoms so I can have some knowledge before suggesting them again. I don't want to take a taxi ride all over town just to go to the movie theater 6 blocks away.
