Cunnilingus is a term used to describe oral stimulation of a woman’s vagina performed by a man or a woman.
Whatever the relationship situation, homosexual or heterosexual, monogamy, in my opinion, is best as far as safety, hygiene, and health are concerned.
Oral sex can be a beautiful thing if done with the right person, at the right time, and under the right circumstances.
Many women enjoy this act performed on them. For some, it’s a stress reliever. For others, it’s the pathway to a great orgasm. And then for others, they simply just enjoy the intense pleasure from this act.
Vaginal health
The female vagina, when healthy, has a naturally nice and sweet smell. It’s a very clean organ when a female is health conscious.
Consider the naturally acidic pH level of the vagina. When the diet is poor, the pH level decreases and the natural acidic level of the vagina (which is a healthy state, by the way) is lowered and when this happens, the state of the vagina becomes unhealthy because the acidic levels have become too low.
Diet affects vaginal health and influences its smell. What a woman eats and drink will affect the color, taste and aroma of sex fluids, which a man is bound to taste while performing cunnilingus.
Wearing clothes can also impact vaginal health. The sweat and constriction caused by clothing that’s too tight or made of synthetic fibers can prevent the vagina from “breathing” and help to create an unpleasant taste and smell.
Men must remember that the vagina is used for urination, as well as closely located to the rectum. No matter how well a woman wipes herself with toilet paper, there will still be residues. If the woman urinates or defecates before cunnilingus is performed, she should take a wet towel and clean the vagina and rectum as well as possible, or better yet, take a shower.
The vagina is going to be cleanest after a woman bathes or showers. So the best time to perform cunnilingus is right after she gets out of the tub or shower. Now let me say this: for certain women, showering or bathing is not going to guarantee that their vaginas smell pleasant.
There are certain things men need to be aware of when performing cunnilingus, especially when not in a monogamous relationship. STDs – sexually transmitted diseases-can be transferred through oral sex. If you are not in a monogamous relationship, it’s recommended to use a “dental dam,” a latex sheet that can be placed on top of the vagina, but acts as a protective barrier. It”s a lot like the sheet they place in your mouth at the dentist office, thus the name.
Because the vagina is dark, wet, warm, and moist, it can become the perfect environment for bacteria and other microorganisms.
Men must also remember that women bleed from this orifice monthly unless they’re in menopause.
Cunnilingus helps a man out simply because cunnilingus helps many women achieve orgasm. Her bliss will have come from cunnilingus-induced orgasm.
Cunnilingus is a great precursor to sexual intercourse. It gets the vagina nice and wet for easy and smooth penetration. Cunnilingus can actually help a man out if he suffers from poor hang-time, lack of stamina and endurance, and/or premature ejaculation, as many men do suffer from these things.
In closing, as a woman, if you like cunnilingus-cool! If not, still cool! It all boils down to personal choice. An act is not objectively bad, dirty, or immoral simply because you don’t like the act or because your beliefs surrounding it are not positive.
Many people have come to learn that reciprocity exists in sex, pertaining to oral sex, because if the person wanted to receive oral sex, they also had to give it. Many people have come to performing oral sex simply as a condition for receiving it.
There are some basic guidelines to ensure the act is pleasurable for both partners:
- Shower or bathe prior to sexual activity. It removes the daily dirt, sweat and other “collectibles” that accumulate over the course of the day.
- Wear underpants and clothing made of natural fiber. It reduces potentially foul-smelling odors that wouldn’t naturally be there.
- Eat a nutrient-rich vegan or raw diet. What you digest comes through the skin, and the vagina is no different.
