The Eeewww Factor

Warning: this entry may get kind of graphic in a sort of…er…earthy way. If you're looking for a less graphic discussion (but maybe even more provoking) following a little different line, check out my latest in Unsolicited Advice.

So hold on to your butts, because we're going in to some deep psychological waters.

FTN's wife made a post, commenting about some of the difficulties she had with sex. Especially oral sex. Her views are so congruent with my own wife's thoughts on the subject, she might wish to watch my story as to one possible future she's looking at. Maybe it will scare her enough to fly right.

Her objection is primarily the "Eeww" factor of oral sex. The nether regions are the source of pee and poop, not a source of pleasure. This view is reinforced everytime she changes a diaper or uses the bathroom. After any contact with those nether regions, there is much hand washing. How can anyone ever imagine putting their mouth someplace where you don't allow your hands to tread without heavy doses of antibacterial soap? I mean the idea behind the washing is in case you touch your mouth, right?

Putting a penis into a vagina is different than putting your mouth there. Since these are both essentially equally dirty and disgusting organs, they more or less balance out their mutual grossness. Two Eewws make it alright. At least tolerable.

So, ladies. I've read how some of you love cock sucking. You love licking and slurping and sliding your tongues all over it. Some of you even (gasp!) swallow! Is it always after he's totally decontaminated himself with a shower of Lysol disinfectant? Where is the "Eeww" factor?

None of us are surprised that guys might not care. We are, afterall, dirty, disgusting pigs who love to exist in filth. But many women have wondered at how a guy can possibly enjoy the sensations and smells of oral when it is so dirty down there. A place the ladies never touch without a thorough scub down. Now he's putting his mouth down there and (gasp!) might even want to kiss you afterwards! Heaven forbid he had his penis anywhere near there, because then there is the combination of germs, bacteria, bugs, creepy crawlies and cooties to contend with. Diry, nasty, filthy, disgusting cooties. And someone wants to eat yours or, even worse, have you consume theirs.

It's amazing cocksuckers and pussy eaters even sleep at night, unless they happen to be in total denial. What health-concious person would even dream of doing such a thing? Who, in their right mind, would even THINK this is okay? What a bunch of SICK perverts!

Well?

Of course I have a take on this, but I'd like to see what others can do with this vexing dilemma. Especially women, as it is this population who are most often plagued with the Eeww factor. I don't expect the huge outpouring that I had on my previous oral sex post, as this is squeamish territory. It's not nearly as much fun. But it is at least as important, especially those unable to get their minds past "Eeww."

I wonder if I've scared anyone off from oral sex altogether.
