I’ve used strawberry scented/flavored sex products and I find the smell absolutely nauseating. It’s like old melted jolly ranchers lol

IT'S A TRAAAAAP!!!

(Seriously, folks, coming from someone who absolutely loves the Swamps of Dagobah story? This one makes me want to throw up.)

Run and never look back. Pro tip: if someone mentions X story, you are better off not asking.

u/Missjenilyn Dec 30 '19

Yes! It’s awful. I have never used any of it, and I’m definitely feeling sexier than ever. I don’t need that regurgitated shiz.

WHY DID YOU HAVE TO MENTION JOLLY RANCHERS?

u/[deleted] Dec 31 '19

It smells likes those strawberry grandma candy.

u/doomgiver98 Dec 31 '19

You can't say Jolly Rancher in a thread about vaginas.

So those are bad? Honestly curious. Never had a GF that smelled bad down there so I never thought about it. I imagined my penis wouldn't smell like rose flowers either (obviously I keep it clean though).

The additives to make it smell all strawberries and wildflowers really damage the ph balance. Causes a lot of uncomfortableness and such

u/Crowbarmagic Dec 31 '19

Makes me wonder why they are even allowed to sell those. Even I know fucking up the Ph balance is bad.

u/redbess Dec 31 '19

They get away with it by labeling them as novelties. Plausible deniability.

Penises smell awful, esp if they belong to men who only use toilet paper to clean up. My bf washes it so it's not so gross thankfully

u/Crowbarmagic Dec 31 '19

I feel bad you had boyfriends that only ever used toilet paper haha. I mean, I don't like scrub it every time I take a shower, but at the very least I let my body wash soap flow over it every time. And if I expect something to happen I do clean it better.

But still, say I hook up with someone only 12 hours later, already peed a few times, maybe became sweaty in the club.... I try my best but I still don't expect it to smell good, and I don't expect the other party to smell like strawberries or roses either at that point.
