I feel much more okay with having a shower first.

Cleaner is always better, it is cleaner for him and I tend to feel much less worried if I just cleaned up, less self conscious, you know?

If I've been doing something where I know I'm sweaty and would not be smelling pleasantly (anything that makes me sweaty like working out) I would shower first. However, if I've had a normal day it isn't necessary.

I usually don't mind either way but my gf will insist most of the time. And for her to go down on me it's the same.

If it's a hot day, a shower is kind of necessary.

If things have been sweaty then it's definitely nice.

I prefer to have a shower first, but sometimes being spontaneous doesn't permit that.

Usually, my guy doesn't want/need me to, but if it is after a long day and I've been sweating, whether he asks me to or not, I am at the least going to clean up if not completely shower before he goes down on me.

I always try and use an Eden wipe or something prior to him going down on me, though.

I don't normally shower first because I've already showered that day. Would be sort of ridiculous to shower again just because someone wants to give me oral.

I personally feel more secure if I shower right before getting some oral action...

It depends. If my man is sweaty and dirty from a long day, I'll send him to the shower before he comes near me, or else a quick clean up is sufficient.

If you're JUST going down on her, nothing else? No shower necessary, unless you're so dirty that you smell. If the oral sex is going to transition to other sexual activities (especially her going down on you), then yeah, a shower would be nice.

I've never been too concerned about it. It only 'bit' me once when I tried to go down on a girl for the first time - I almost threw up. I've never had a problem with my wife - she's more worried about it that me.

I personally don't take a shower specifically for that purpose, but I never skip a shower. I don't shower before my partner does that for me because I don't need to. I don't have downstairs issues. No odors, problems or anything like that. Thankfully! No period to worry about so I'm good in that dept. He is happy that way and insists on doing it before intercourse. Lucky me

as is the european custom, i wash myself after going to the bathroom, everytime. so there's no need for a shower before sex acts.

Yay Alice ; )

Great response as always.

I like to wash before anyone goes down on me and I hope the other person does the same. It doesn't always happen but I still prefer it.

I'm a very clean person, and my husband knows that. He doesn't mind if I've showered or not...sometimes he prefers that I don't because then I smell more natural and not so much like my body wash

I prefer to take baths. It seems to get me cleaner. Sometimes though, he just grabs me and doesn't care. "NO, NO bath. NOW!"

The other day I was working in the kitchen all day, and he came home and... licked my chest to say "Hi." I said, "Kind of salty, huh?" and he said, "Oh yeah. Just how I like it."

He's a weird guy. LOVE him.

A couple of passes with a washcloth can help after a hot day as well.

it's kinda gross if you're not clean down there.

I'm not sure if my husband would care, but I'd want to shower beforehand.
