In popular culture as well as in personal stories told by many people there’s often mentions of spontaneously having sex in random places and sometimes with random people: in cars, in clubs, in bathrooms etc. But how do people do that without taking shower beforehand? Penetration is imaginable - if there’s no strong bad smell, it might be tollerable, but what about oral sex? Sounds vomit inducing.

    I think you will find that people vary widely on their personal taste and tolerance in these matters.

    Just as some love foods that others find completely offputting.

    I mean if both of you are daily bathers and not sweating all day, there is no issue. If anything a tiny bit of smell can be nice, really let’s the pheromones do their work.

      Hmm it’s interesting how different people’s perception of things might be. To mirror my question to other people who shared a similar opinion: but even after peeing once, there’s some urine left. Doesn’t it cause issues?

    If a penis is too dirty to go in my mouth, it’s too dirty to go in my pussy. I strongly believe everyone should live by that rule!

    To echo others here - if everyone involved showered that morning and otherwise wasn’t sweating a lot during the day, it’s fine.

    Humans were having a lot of sex in historical situations where soap and daily bathing weren’t typical. We’re animals, you know.

    But it’s also normal for people to have varied levels of drive and personal thresholds below which it is no longer worth it. I was demisexual most of my life, and I’m functionally asexual now that the mass consensus is that it’s okay to expose each other to sars-cov-2.

    We exist because of a unbroken chain of horny humans existed in all types of conditions, only recently have showers been readily available. The human spirit will make due!

    I’m more curious about how people have sex that spontaneously in random places?

    It takes up to hours to get into the mood and any random place is likely uncomfortable and distracting enough to lose the hard earned mood.

      Less about forcing a mood, it’s more about following when it does hit, exponential bonus points if you’re an exhibitionist.

      Also, chemistry is huge, here. People work really weirdly in the head, so if, say, there’s a positive feedback loop in the dynamic, it can be explosive.

      Clicker training is also valid. Or really any kind of training, which is likely what “pheromones” really is: horny people get stupid, funky unique smells happen, now you’ve built a taste for it.

      Like literally just read about any kink ever.

      And, if you aren’t feeling it, maybe try something or somebody different. Or maybe you’re ace spectrum, that’s totally valid, too.

      Also, shame is a powerful thing. It causes people to do things and to not do things.

      Basically, all people are weird, and that’s okay.

        Yeah over the years I’ve found tha people are different and of course there’s nothing wrong in that. No ill will towards anyone on either end of the spectrum.

        It’s just always surprising to see someone with a complete opposite of my experiences as i tend to forget about it completely and only reminded of it by outside influence and even then it takes effort.

    Pheromones have a big role in sex and pairing. Sex only after shower should be a definite no-no. You should have at least half a days skin excretion on. Otherwise from your bodys perspective you might as well be fucking a silicone doll and subconscious processes for pairing are left out.
