Connoisseurs of Cunnilingus: What does it taste like to you?

I know this may seem pervy, but I ask out of genuine, longtime curiosity, which has not been resolved despite performing in the Vagina Monologues - twice!

As long as I've had my culele, I've wondered what "normal" is, like many women, I'm sure. I have my own ideas, but trying to describe yourself is cognitively bizarre! (lavender and bacon??)

I'd like to hear some generalities and hopefully some refined epicurean descriptions of the good and bad, perhaps illuminated with the nature of your acquaintance with The Pink One.

Fuck off, trolls.

It depends: Some good (yeah--I miss her), mostly a bit sweaty / musky. Even fishy at times. Always 1000% more fun after a shower. Probably not the sexiest description; but true to my own experience.

It really does change with what you eat-- that's not just an urban legend. The first time we had sex, my ex (a nymphomaniac connoisseur) turned to me and said, "You weren't kidding about liking onions!" Another ex ate massive amounts of fruit; she tasted like lemon Jolly Ranchers mixed with chai tea.

Every woman tastes different and diet has a lot to do with it. I don't think there's an easy way to answer the question. It's like asking what chicken tastes like. Yes, chicken tastes like chicken but it also has many other flavors that change depending on the person making it, so to speak. There's no one thing I would compare the taste to.

Yes, it varies from woman to woman, and even then from day to day. Diet is an enormous factor. Vegan girls, I've noticed, can be ... sweet and creamy? The 9volt is getting at the fact that it's definitely tangy.

It's never going to be a flavor at Baskin Robbins, but there is something amazing about it. I think it's due to the fact that, when you're doing it, it's not just a taste ... it's a smell, a sight, and a sensation (warmth, texture, moisture) felt by the nerve-laden face and mouth. In the abstract, the taste doesn't mean a lot because the flavor is supposed to be part of the experience. Yes, I said smell. A lot of women freak about that but, so long as she's healthy, many men find that particular smell very stirring.

Wait, like the outside casing of the battery or the top metal part that you actually attach to the electronics? And why is it a 9 volt and not a double A? You know every girl who reads this is going to be spending the rest of the night trying to find a battery to lick, right? I know I am.
posted by Ugh at 9:17 PM on December 1, 2006 [10 favorites]

Okay, sorry, but I have to ask: under what circumstances would someone lick a battery?! I Googled it and got a couple of ideas (test it, recharge it?) but I'm still confused.

Also, what part of the battery are you all talking about? Or does it all taste the same?
posted by chickletworks at 9:19 PM on December 1, 2006

I think what they mean to say is the "taste" of the current induced in ones tounge by 9V. Not the casing. It's a very particular sort of tangy taste. It's also somewhat dependent on which part of the tounge the voltage is applied to - try it out some time.

As to why one would do this, you can actually get quite good at sensing voltages in that range with the tounge.

While I've licked many a 9V in my day, I am sadly unable to comment on the comparison.
posted by phrontist at 9:33 PM on December 1, 2006

You lick a 9v battery to figure out if it still has any juice in it (eg to find out why your guitar distortion pedal isn't working). You don't lick other batteries because you can't connect the + and - terminals with your tongue.

The taste is like the taste of the terminals of an almost-entirely-discharged 9v battery (ie without the electric shock).

Hope this helps!

It tastes like the color red.

It tastes like animals fucking somewhere in the woods under a full moon.

It tastes like want and desire poured over warm skin, something rough, something soft, something salty.

and of course if you're in love, it tastes like a secret door that is open, where everything that is good in the world is hidden.


You taste wine or meat or cheese, but when you mouth is between her legs, there's a different kind of hunger that taste doesn't cover.

Have you ever bitten your lip and gotten a little bit of blood in your mouth? It's got a very distinct taste. Even when a woman isn't on her period, there's always a hint of that flavor, among all the others.

I, for one, am going to disagree with the battery comment, although I know what you're trying to get at.

Personally, I'm far too overwhelmed with the variety of sensations -- the feel on my tounge, the sound of her reaction, her legs squirming around me, her hands on my head, my hands all over her, etc, to pay special attention to the taste.

Unless something makes it have a seriously strong "off" taste, that is about the lowest sense on the importance list.
posted by SpookyFish at 1:37 AM on December 2, 2006

Hmmm

Definitely musky in a good way, occasionally a bit of taste and smell a bit like truffles, and I note that Caucasian women sometimes have a slight hint of frying butter, East Asian women sometimes taste a bit saltier but redheads have a noticably different taste and every redhead I've, er, sampled, had a similar taste.
posted by xetere at 1:40 AM on December 2, 2006

The electrolysis effect of a low voltage on your tongue is seperating chemicals so that you can discern them out of the organic compounds.

Te taste of vagina is very definitely a combination of many things, there are a lot of pheromonal outlets that make their presence known between the labia minora and majora.

The tangy metallic is iron from the blood. Then there is the almond nutty context probably based on mucus. And the lightly salted melon. And the durian flavor from dead cells. Any of which can come to the fore based on diet and hormone progression.

There is most certainly a racial / cultural / diet element to it.

If you have noticed the different body smell of East Asians, Caucasians, and South Asians, well, the nether regions taste like that, just moreso.

I don't know if I go with xetere's "asians - saltier" distinction, but it is some sort of "not butter" taste, while Caucasian vaginas have that milky / buttery note. Central Asians have a slightly muttony / gamey taste.

South Asians are tangy and spicy... mmmm...

I agree with whoever said that taste is really pretty far down on the list of things you're paying attention to while it's going on.

It does vary depending on the person.

I'll be the first, I think, to come out against the 9v analogy, but obviously I'm a minority there. So I guess I must taste oniony. It's not that metallic; metallic things don't taste that creamy.

I have, on more than one occasion, noted a hint of something that was slightly like cumin. Which is great for both me and her, because I love cumin. I would categorize this flavor under "musky," but there are other elements, as well: salty, slightly tangy (I think lime comes somewhat close; I don't buy the battery thing), and mildly buttery.

To my taste buds, this is a very fine and most enjoyable combination.

In case you're wondering, the poet Charles Baudelaire sez:

...De l'huile de coco, du musc et du goudron.

...which translates to:

...like coconut oil, musk and tar.

...which makes a lot of sense to me, somehow. The context of the poem, by the way, is this:

...I shall plunge my head, adoring drunkenness,
Into this black ocean where the other is imprisoned;
And my subtle spirit caressed by the sway
Will know how to find you, O pregnant idleness!
In an infinite cradle of scented leisure!

Blue hair, house of taut darkness,
You make the blue of the sky seem huge and round for me;
On the downy edges of your twisted locks
I hungrily get drunk on the muddled fragrances
Of coconut oil, of musk and tar...

...but you really should read the whole poem.

For me, bit hard to jump back in after the wife’s given birth, you do tend to regard it as the “holiest of holys” (to paraphrase Jules) but no real difference in taste after that either. Also it seems to change in taste as you go on. Tends to clarify - although that could be because of the saliva as well as new secretion. And if a woman is a squirter that has it’s own taste. Typically saltier than urine - depending on how hydrated a woman is.

Having read through this thread now - mostly anyway.. I will agree with some things - yeah the 9v battery thing, that works for me - it is a unique tangy and metallic taste and that's certainly a part of it. But there's more. The metallicness of 'licking the head of a hammer' (which I've done) is there too. I think there's also an earthy muskiness that I can't compare to anything.

And beyond a somewhat common base 'flavour' there are distinct differences between women - one partner was notably sweet with a stongy 'mustiness'.

I've never encountered (or really understood) the fishy thing - either I've been with the wrong women, or been eating the wrong fish.

Diet has been mentioned several times and I think it plays a key role in the taste/smell of a woman's vagina.

Jesus, I've almost forgotten at this point, but back in my prime I serviced a nice variety of love blossoms. All of them had that thing that's half smell, half hypnotic nerve agent. Guess that's the characteristic pheremone-laden musk thing that really tells you, "Hey, I am totally eating pussy right now." Fantastic. Sometimes lighter, sometimes heavier, sometimes tangier.

But often it does range into armpit territory, a strong but not entirely unpleasant body odor smell. Not like that stale kind on the elevator with the weird old guy from Accounting, but that kind of good kind when gf comes back from a solid workout. Closer to the onset of the period, I've noticed, the stronger and more pungent this can get.

Where we might start to venture into difficult territory is when the cheese element is introduced. I've snorkeled a handful that reminded me of kind of strong Doritos residue. It's workable if you don't think about it. But when thinking about one particularly unfortunate substance that can sometimes form in that region, it can be kind of off-putting.

And as for fish, that is straight-up bacterial vaginosis, that is. Get her down to the clinic and they can straighten that out quick smart. Doctors often do a very unsophisticated test for that, the ol' "sniff test". Fish? Yes? BV. Dine elsewhere until that is resolved.

Here's the kicker. The last muffin I waxed cursed me, I think, and kicked off a punitive dryspell. I've never smelled anything like this. Imagine that you had a summer party in college that started off tame and fun but got crazy later on. You started off with basic party snacks sitting out everywhere, including a bag of Tostitos and a bowl of chunky, hot, habanero salsa. The snacks are quickly forgotten, though, as people turn to liquid diets and get all hammered. Now it's noon the next day. You're waking up all hung over and hot and thirsty and oversensitive to strong smells and you stumble into the living room and the smell of old habanero salsa that's been sitting out unrefrigerated all night and half the day in a hot house just permeates the air, infesting the place like somebody painted the walls with it. It's sharp and hot and spicy and kind of tired and tomatoey and not fresh, and it's sooo not what you want to be smelling. You just throw it out the window, bowl and all, in your weakened state. Gotta get it out.

Well this has nothing to do with college or parties. It's now many years later. Now imagine that that hot, oppressive, intense smell is pouring out from between the legs of that cute girl from work who you've finally landed while staying at the same hotel during the conference. And you've gone down there to get some work done and have landed smack in the middle of habanero central, a punishing, thick miasma of caliente doom overpowering your senses. Uggggh. I swear I thought it was going to burn my face off. WTF did she eat?! I was not a champ that night and just couldn't stay down there. I did yeoman's work for a cursory bit of time, though, just so she wouldn't feel all self conscious, because she seemed to be partly aware of the issue. Sweet girl, but so not hooking up with her again, the poor thing. Can't risk my eyebrows like that.

So there you go. Good musk, b.o., powdered cheese, old, warm, habanero salsa. I want to find some of these lemony girls you all are talking about. A bit of butter would be just fine as well. I note no difference in redheads, btw, and have never been reminded of chicken. *goes searching for a battery to lick*

although time of the month influences it, i think once she gets wet, it generally kind of tastes like clear wet strings of snot from a clean runny nose (that would be a runny nose from cold weather or gentle crying, not gummy boogers from a cold or sinus infection). for the record, that clean, clear kind of snot isn't gross, it's just messy.

sometimes there's a whiff of clean, fresh-workout armpit sweat down there too, which is not unpleasant.
if you're unlucky, or she's had a long day, the pseudo-armpit sweat won't smell so clean (camping pussy!)-
may also have a whiff of old pee or bunched-up wet towel. that's after like 24 hours of sweat and usage.
i think a shower a few hours before face-time is ideal for all concerned.

apparently, mine at its best tastes like snapple elements, RAIN flavour (agave cactus with a hint of pear).

Ok, I think I can offer a unique perspective as a girl who "experimented" in college. I've only tasted one girl so am not as experienced as some of these guys. ;)

I was definitely curious about pussy taste. The closest idea I'd gotten before was whiffs of my own pussy. Unfortunately when the pussy is smelling strong enough that it can travel all the way up to my nose from down there it's usually not a pleasant smell. So I thought it was like that all the time, just sometimes stronger when I needed a shower or was sweating excessively, etc. I was always curious when my boyfriend told me how great it tasted, I thought he was just being nice (or that the "bad" pussy taste was at least tolerable). :)

I was extremely surprised to find a complete absence of that smell when I went down on her. I don't know if she'd just showered or whatever, but the main thing I remember thinking was that the main taste was salty and much more pleasant than I thought it'd be. Kind of like sweat except creamier (and of course pussy juice is produced by fancy schmancy sweat glands, so there ya go).

I can endorse rug-munching as something every girl should try once- just to feel better about her own parts, if anything. And it's always nice to get an up close view of a pussy just to see what's going on in there (so hard to do with your own!). Sometimes it weirds me out that my boyfriend knows more about my pussy than I do! Guys have it easier because their cocks are much more accessible and visible than our secret parts... ;)

And guys, you all should swallow semen at least once if you want your girlfriend to do it, so you can know what she's going through. ;)
