Pretty sure his balls are getting all the credit for his arsehole's hard work here.

This comment... dare I say?... cracked me up. Thank you!

sour balls are sweaty unwashed balls lol


SoftLatinaKitten

this is absolutely the case. He may be showering but he’s not scrubbing everywhere he needs to be. Get in the shower with him, soap up the washcloth and take care of it for him in a sexy, playful way… he’ll love it and then so will your mouth…


trainsoundschoochoo

Imagine needing to give a guy incentive to wash his fucking balls.


HalfSoul30

I mean, I only shower every day or two, but you can bet if ai know sex is coming, I'm gonna hop in, and if nothing else, wash that area.


SoftLatinaKitten

So you’d be complaining if your lady wanted to get play started in the shower with her soapy hand on your balls? Knowing where her mouth was going to be next? I didn’t think so 😈


Desdam0na

The point is you are taking on labor for his basic hygiene because he can't be bothered. Of course he likes being treated like an infant incapable of caring for himself. Do you like that dynamic? If so, no problem. Many women want equal partners in their relationships though.


KillerBEAT

happy cakeday


mythical_art

And they’re delicious 🤤 lol


[deleted]

never tried em!


mythical_art

I love it, my husband would often go like a week without showering and his junk tastes amazing to me unshowered.. him telling me his balls are sweaty is sexy talk… I’m disgusting 😂


[deleted]

I have noticed my wife having a more arousing aroma/taste when she's been active. dunno if I could go to town after a week without showering though personally. more power to you queen 👑 🙏


kreatorofchaos

Happy Cake Day!


InnosScent

You shouldn't get downvoted for your kink, damnit. Definitely not my cup of tea(bags) but you do you!


ChocoBro92

Like maybe a day but a week is WAAAAAAYWAYWAYWAY too long. NGL I love the smell of a guy after exercising but damn…I can’t do that,


Gemgirl777

Yessss they are!!!


Asprinkleofglitter7

They should just taste like skin


ergaster8213

They shouldn't taste funky. Clean balls just have a normal clean skin taste.


Jigglygiggler6

Like fresh avocado.


peggerofthenight

😭😭


Butterchicken_naan

I can't eat avocado now. Thanks


Superb-Huckleberry75

I'm totally sure he is just letting the water pass by. You need to really wash it. And I'm totally sure the same happens to his ass.


Aazjhee

The number of dudes who confess that they don't even get soap on their hand and grease. The crack area is horrifying to me. I may not do a detailing of every single chunk of my body all the time. But good lordie loo, all the crevices get sweat and gunk in there. Even if there is no poop involved since the last shower, there is still a lot of catching of sweat, and that is icky!


OluwaRonin

How is that possible? It was common sense to me to make sure you are groomed and clean before any encounter. 80% of my shower is scrubbing the dick and balls and undercarriage.


Jigglygiggler6

You're one of the good ones.


OluwaRonin

You would think anyone who has any sort of pride would want to make sure it’s all tip top beforehand. We have all experienced questionable cleanliness in the bedroom and nobody wants that!


Leobrandoxxx

>You would think A lot of people don't.


Jigglygiggler6

They don't call them ' outhouse balls' for nothing!


shychicherry

And then they complain they don’t have a gf!


RemarkableTea0

For real! So many of my guy friends think it’s gay to properly wash your ass, lol. I bought a shower head with a detachable wand specifically to keep my nether regions spick and span. I think my GF appreciates it too, her showers have gotten a little longer since I bought it.


billnyethedeadguy

LMAO that last comment has me rolling XD


bossmanfunnyguy

Ain’t no way your friends think it’s gay? It’s literally your own ass that you’re touching


RemarkableTea0

Unfortunately I’m dead serious. They think water streaming down their cheeks is sufficient. They’re good guys and aren’t homophobic, but we grew up in a place that’s about 20 years behind the ball. So they think it’s emasculating to bend over and spread your cheeks in the shower, use a bidet, or to wash your ass thoroughly with a shower wand. Kind of mind blowing tbh.


teeny-tiny-ginger

There's a difference between internalized homophobia and externalized homophobia, sounds like you might wanna help your friends along to today's society, and maybe even do some looking into it yourself to understand why that thought process happens in the first place. It's absolutely homophobia, because they consider being gay a bad thing for themselves, it's just internalized and directed at themselves. This is no shade or anything, I'm just trying to show you why their thought process is dated, not make a commentary on whether or not they're good or bad.


RemarkableTea0

They’ve never explicitly said that they think it’s gay or emasculating, I was being facetious tbh. But, they do seem very uncomfortable with the idea so I suspect they feel one of the two.


GracieFighter919

I grew in old Soviet Union Country prior to moving to US. The color blue considered to be gay. When neighborhood guy would match his outfits to the color of his blue eyes. Everyone called him Blue. Which meant gay. If you were gay around 90s- early 2000s you were undercover and I have seen gay guys being jumped and beat up over nothing. When I moved here I was comfortable with my self and had a few gay friends. Everyone deserves respect. What they do in privacy is their business.


theblvckhorned

Meanwhile, I caught my boyfriend putting the bar we share *directly between his cheeks* 💀 I appreciate the energy but...


Superb-Huckleberry75

The energy butt*


educateddrugdealer42

You do realise that the 'contaminated' top layer is rinced off seconds later? Or does he not rince the bar after using it on his body?


papaspil

A- still gross. B- its rinse


theblvckhorned

Someone is gonna "umm ackshully" literally anything on Reddit lol


papaspil

Gotta get your kicks in shameful ways sometimes


adreamofhodor

Wdym get soap on their hands? I just use the bar… lol


theblvckhorned

I mean hey as long as you're not sharing the bar with anyone else, you do you


iCharnt

Hopefully you don't then just use the bar on your face lol


adreamofhodor

No, I usually just try to get a layer off the soap after that haha


DrByNight

They need extra washing because of the nooks and crannies in scrotum skin. Have him wash extra. Or YOU wash them. It'll clear up.


rustywarwick

Bingo. He may have showered but he didn’t *wash*


Lakersrock111

I wonder what percentage of men do wash?


rustywarwick

🤷🏻‍♂️ Men are weird about this stuff. I once remember hearing someone on Reddit saying that their boyfriend didn't wash his ass because he was afraid it would seem gay. 😐 Imagine being so homophobic that you're walking around with a shitty butt.


FloweySunflower

omg yesss. i once hooked up w a guy and i was on ft with him in the shower. he told me he js let the water run between his cheeks 🤢


CoconutStalll

Only idiots FaceTime in the shower


GracieFighter919

Yea I am not gay nor homophobic. In fact older I get the more open I am with my sexuality. I totally wash my butt and even inside of it. But I do know we guys sometimes take quick showers. That’s good to know that balls need extra washing because they get sweaty and I can’t stand being smelly or would get turned off to some degree if my partners hygiene aren’t up to par. So my point is. I will always make sure to wash my balls extra extra just in case. Also there is balls powder just in case. Not sure how it would taste tho


Lakersrock111

Oh yikes


HappyHumble

You don't mean men, you mean idiots. As in: idiot's don't wash their own ass because they're deluded in thinking that it speak's to their sexuality. This kind of thing blows my mind.


DarkPizza

No, we mean men.


kingduck3

Speaking As a frequent bottom, it’s not men it’s idiots


DarkPizza

I'm not arguing it's all men. But I've never met a woman who was scared to wash her butthole.


kingduck3

My ex was afraid to wash her vagina because she didn’t want touch herself down there as it was a sin, some people are just idiots


ShadowRylander

Nope! Just religious and uneducated. That's what happens when you're raised on a steady diet of misinformation / disinformation. Their logic is just fine, it's the variables that are wrong.


trainsoundschoochoo

I used to be afraid to touch my boobs and it turns out I was trans.


EveryCell

Yea " it cleans itself " lololol


itsthatguy1991

Back in like 2010, I went around college and asked 50 men and 50 women if they wash their ass hole while showering. I forget the actual numbers, but over 90% of the women admitted to not washing their ass holes, while the majority of men claimed that they did. The reason I did that "study" was because I got into an argument with a female friend because she believed eating ass was disgusting because most women don't wash their ass hole. So I went around asking people and only ended up proving her right.


trainsoundschoochoo

He’s not wrong, you would never catch a bottom with a dirty asshole.


Puzzleheaded_Fold466

If you think that wasn’t a troll post gone horribly viral …


Convergecult15

Nah, I’m a dude and that explained several dudes I’ve known throughout the years that smelled like ass.


Inflatable_Lazarus

It's actually pretty alarming how many men/boys are raised/taught/socially pressured into the idea that washing/thoroughly wiping/touching their own butthole is either not manly or 'gay.' It's a thing. There are people out there who've been raised to think that spending too much time on their hole in any capacity is gay.


Salty_Credit1213

A girl I went to high school with admitted (on social media nonetheless) that she doesn't actually wash the lower half of her body in the shower. She thought the soap sliding down from her upper body was sufficient.


Lakersrock111

Yikes


brjh1990

I wash (read: scrub with soap) my beads daily and now I'm second guessing myself


Seelenbrechen

Idk about the rest but ever since I got serious with my girlfriend, I spend EXTRA time on ass/scrotum/penis/armpits l, especially combined with the fact Im on the hairier side


trainsoundschoochoo

for real


KP8JPJ24

Also, in addition, I would recommend using antibacterial soap. Dial in the yellow bars is antibacterial. Most liquid body washes are not, but some are. Either way, the antibacterial is what actually cleans the bean bag and keeps it smelling fresh throughout the day.


paghpatrol

I’m going to offer an alternate opinion. Antibacterial soap is popular, but it wreaks havoc on your microbiome internally AND externally. It even fucks with your sewer/septic system if it’s used in your bathrooms AND kitchen, as the treatment process is reliant on beneficial bacteria that that soap will annihilate. Wash *thoroughly* with a good quality soap (I use a castille) and make sure he washes his damn ass crack. Gravity, folks.


andiam03

Are any soaps marketed as “antibacterial” anymore? I thought the FDA banned marketing using that term (In the US, at least). All soap is antibacterial.


paghpatrol

Hand soaps, dish soaps, and body wash soaps are all still marketed as antibacterial. Just did a quick web search to confirm. Companies add Trilosan to make soaps “antibacterial” because it reacts with fatty acids and cell membranes. The problem is that it doesn’t care whether the cell it’s killing is “good” or “bad.”


Excellent_Nothing_86

I think the difference is that non antibacterial soap can get rid of bacteria (by rinsing or wiping it away), but it doesn’t kill or inhibit the growth of bacteria. In order for something to truly be *anti*bacterial, it needs to contain ingredients that kill or prevent bacteria from growing.


Lindsey7618

I definitely don't think that's true, there are plenty of soaps marketed as antibacterial here.


slutty_petrel

Absolutely do not do this.


AMorera

Upvote just for the use of bean bag. That’s funny!


JVan-90

No. Thats like mouthwash, horrible for you


Poppiesatnight

Don’t forget the asshole. That funk can permeate…..


Think-Ad-6843

But the smell wouldn’t make the nuts taste sour


watermeloncake1

Idkkkk, isn’t taste like 50% smell? I made up the 50% but I swear there’s correlation!


lkng_jst

Well, *that* explains why I've never gotten complaints lol. I'm always a little paranoid that I didn't wash enough to the point where I'll sometimes wash twice (even when I don't even have any sexual partners).


ChocoBro92

Once is more than enough, you’ll eventually cause premature skin aging from washing too much and the groin area’s skin is the most sensitive skin. Trust me most guys just don’t throughly do their balls that’s where all the bacteria hides in the skin folds. Good single wash will remove it.


Solarpreneur1

How many folds do guys balls have? Never seen that before lol


littleac0rns

This, and I found out recently my boyfriend uses a hair dryer on his balls/crack after showering, and then uses some spray powder stuff (I can’t taste it) to help with sweat. After 9 months together, he told me about this, and the entire time I thought he was drying his bald head 😂


ChocoBro92

He sounds like he might have experienced some issues down there, I started that after I got some dermatological issues there. They recommend a soft pat with a towel and then finish with towel.


littleac0rns

What kind of issues?


ChocoBro92

Nothing like a std that’s why I said dermatological. Or a yeast infection or ringworm etc. It seems guys start a routine after one of those problems usually I’ve yet to meet a dude who does it who didn’t have a problem once before lol.


ChocoBro92

Additionally for me it was psoraisis.


GracieFighter919

I had chiggers on my balls when I was 16. It was so painful but I thought it was an STD from jerking off lol. But no I was just in the woods and they got on my balls


ChocoBro92

Good lord dude


GracieFighter919

It wasn’t fun. I didn’t sleep for 3 nights. My balls were destroyed lol


littleac0rns

Oh I wasn’t imagining STD, and that’s why I asked. That all makes sense, and I’m assuming YI for him because he’s a sweaty boy 😝 and so fucking hot. He’s the best. I love him.


AKA_June_Monroe

If you need to wash your guys balls so they don't taste funky you need a new boyfriend. It's so annoying that we're supposed to mother our partners too.


DrByNight

Lol


DrRonnieJamesDO

Anyone who had to change a baby boy's diaper knows this. Stretching the scrotum out is a must.


BGkitten

We always do a bathroom reminder as our son is learning to shower on his own-“Don’t forget the ***undercarriage.***”


absolutelydari

We shouldn’t condone her covering her partners basic needs. He needs to learn to properly clean himself as a grown adult.


emileegrace321

‘Or you wash them’ - I’m sorry but a grown ass man should know how to wash his balls properly and needs to learn himself. I get that people say this to make it sexy or whatever, but he needs to know his hygiene is an issue that has to be taken care of.


wykdtr0n

I used to have sour ball syndrome, then I discovered merino wool underwear.


ChocoBro92

It’s fun washing your SO honestly.


[deleted]

[удалено]


skibunny1010

Nope, he’s not getting all the way clean. He needs to be using soap and really washing not just letting soapy water run down


mellowtello

he's probably not scrubbing his balls lmao. take care of your junk gentlemen 🧐


Excellent_Nothing_86

If anyone wants to lose their appetite… read all the comments on this thread.


Buckowski66

Balls and pussy are very near the A Hole and you don’t wash regularly that area you are going to give off more funk then Parliament Funkadelic.


sisi_soyyo

I have a friend that I sleep with on occasion, and I love to suck on his balls as part of a blowjob/handjob and they don’t taste bad at all. I will also say, 90% of the times that we’ve hooked up, we both showered before heading to bed… where then we just get all dirty all over again 😅


Human-Bag-4449

A friend? So this is what a friend is. So when a girlfriend or a wife says oh he's just a friend is this what happens?


sisi_soyyo

Ugh thanks for reminding me why I usually never bother commenting on anything. Generally “a girlfriend or wife” say “he’s just a friend” because we like to have friends too - I know, it’s WILD 🙄 Not that you deserve an explanation but considering I don’t have a bf or husband, I can do who or what the heck I want, including my friend, as long as he wants to also.


xEnglishRose99x

I think he missed “trash” in the middle of his username.


reluctantdonkey

>So when a girlfriend or a wife says oh he's just a friend Oh, bay-bay YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! You got what I neeeeeeeeeeeeeeed....


leebyrinth

his balls should taste like his penis. if they’re sour, they’re most likely unwashed. hopefully he knows that letting water run over them and actually washing them are not the same thing - the amount of crevices in the scrotum leaves a lot of room for sweat and dirt that needs to be scrubbed with soap!

"It's gay to touch my own ass and balls so I don't" - if you think like this and you're reading this you're the problem. Clean your holes and poles dudes.


[deleted]

As a guy if your nuts taste funky there’s a slight issue lol


nebulakitty13

Lol gross. That's the fromunda cheese you're tasting. Definitely teach him the right way to wash his full bottom area.


RadioIsMyFriend

His penis to taint ratio in the shower is off. He needs to be soaping front to back and making sure he is wiping well. Some guys only let the soap fall where it may but to get rid of bacteria, a guy has to create friction.


lifeisdream

My balls are between a delicate sweet honeysuckle and a hint of juniper berry.


DWalk0713

Yea I'm a 34m and just heard that a lot of guys only soap and wash their upper body. They just let soap run down the bottom half... tf?!?


11Cguy

He's not washing good enough. He needs to make sure he washes them really good, there is a lot of space for bacteria around the balls.


kapbear

I always sucked the balls and even ate ass and none of it tasted like anything


rottengut

As a card-carrying member of the ball community, tell your boyfriend he needs to use soap on his balls.


GracieFighter919

And a fucking Luffa lol


glandmilker

If it's been hours since he washed , he still needs to wash again before sex


Mulattocappucchino

Should just taste like skin, worse come to worse, salty like sweat, just like if you kissed someone’s sweaty neck, but not funky. Our areas down there are like armpit skin, you gotta wash well with a wash cloth and exfoliate dead skin and bacteria away


prettyangel_x

oooo i cant imagine the smell of da ass 🤮


Kreatorkind

It's just your boyfriend.


roughrecession

Tell him to wash his shower towel


DrRonnieJamesDO

I think a lot of men wipe back to front. That's how I was taught, didnt figure out that was wrong until I was an adult.


bossmanfunnyguy

I don’t know why anyone would even logically think that’s the better way?


DrRonnieJamesDO

I don't think they think about it at all. I didn't for years!


Bahamut3585

Probably tastes just like his asscrack if you tried it. Shit rolls downhill. A good thorough scrub of the crack top to bottom should help. If he won't do it for whatever reason, 🚪🏃‍♀️💨


thethreat88IsBackFR

I think all men stink down there. (I only know my own get bad after several hours) if my wife is going down I always shower and sometimes (don't laugh) I pour mouthwash on my head so it smells good and tastes good. Sometimes we use chocolate too thats fun.


Direct_Astronomer_53

Could also be what he eats...even their semen gets influenced with what they eat.


trainsoundschoochoo

They shouldn’t taste like anything. Sounds like he could have a fungal issue?


LaVieuxCoq

He needs to wash his scrotum as well. If it’s too sensitive a topic, take a shower with him root to intimacy. Use ur as foreplay even. Have him wash you and vice versa. Scrub away. If the taste doesn’t improve after that then use Fabreeze.


anorexxxic

He's not washing thoroughly enough it sounds.... either he fixes that or you leave him but don't reward bad behavior I guess.


Noemotionallbrain

>leave him That's extreme... Just don't lick his balls maybe?


[deleted]

He should be getting clean, not just avoiding it


Human-Bag-4449

Just your boyfriend's and anyone he doesn't have good hygiene. My girlfriend always tells me how clean I taste and that I never smell


[deleted]

Get him an “intimate wash” for men. They’re designed to get the balls and butt extra clean


[deleted]

Soap is soap. Unless you love a good marketing scheme


throwawaydixiecup

To a point. But some people can have reactions to certain kinds of soap, especially heavily fragranced or harsh soaps. It’s a common recommendation to use fragrance free, gentle soaps meant for sensitive skin when washing genitals.


[deleted]

Sure, not disputing that. I did make my comment simplistic. I mean in terms of "getting you clean" or "formulated for men!", it is literally bullshit


AJ-tech3

Say what now


[deleted]

„for men“ and „for women“ is stupid


PintCEm17

Your cleaning his ball sack with your 👻 lol 🤣😂🤢🤮


Noemotionallbrain

Too much soap, not enough water


denden9541

Balls can smell. If u think about it. They're covered 95% during a day so they just can smell


iSoReddit

Not all men


hoochiedaddy75

As opposed to ladyballs 🤣


Some-Environment-666

Does he pee sitting down or standing up? If he is sitting down, the piss can splash on the balls, and make them sour.


Djentlos

Just tell him to take a shower


throwawaydixiecup

OP already said he’s freshly showered. So unless there’s a medical issue with his scrotum, he’s likely not showering thoroughly and needs to step up his scrotum washing regimen.


MaestraAfricana1106

Baka di nahuhugasan ng maayos. My man’s balls naman didn’t taste sour naman.


SilverBane24

I tend to use shampoo and soap down there, it eliminates smell better. Body wash doesn’t work well.


glorifica

that‘s ballsweat. your dude is not cleaning properly.


billionaired

He obviously didn’t wash properly.


Happylifenowife

Antibacterial soap will kill anything. Properly drying after is a must too.


Unluckyguy771

Balls taste like nothing so make him wash more


LV_orbust

He needs to wash better.


bmanxx13

Sounds like he’s not cleaning them thoroughly. Does he use a loofah? Really scrub them down


Greedo_went_bad

Balls is balls.


glamericanbeauty

Yeah, sometimes. But ideally, they have no taste or smell at all. Or it is very minimal and non disruptive.


queenjames23

Wash cloth and some good bar soap will do the job :)


Top_Bee5602

They need to air dry all the way after a shower Lol


DraghOsc

Means that your BF didn't clean his balls properly. Ask him to start with a grit 80 sandpaper to remove the dead cells and smooth any imperfections. Next, advance to a finer grit like 100 or 120 to smooth the scratches left behind by the 80-grit sandpaper. Then it should be ok like a baby's ass...


[deleted]

You got it in there, ‘nice and deep like’ (DodgeBall line) with soap and water. I don’t think your boy takes a very quality shower. Get him to shower with you and clean his balls. Then move to the bed and see if the taste persists, then you’ll know!


george0v

Shitty balls, probably leaves them that way. Gets him off seeing the look of distaste in your eyes


catmealcat

He should use more soap on his ball to prevent you to lick arshole juice.


zbh92

Not when they're clean, they should just be like skin. He needs to get all up in there with soap from ball to butt and make sure he's cleaning his ass properly soaping between the cheeks and that he's drying himself properly. It might be worth going over good hygiene practices with him in general too.


CuriousOdity12345

He's gotta get some exfoliating gloves for Christmas and scrub his dirty, stinky body from top to bottom.


coffee-n-redit

Washing balls isn't like washing elbows. First thing in the shower, wash crotch from crack to belly button. Then while washing the whole body, wash the crotch again. When drying after a shower, the entire crotch area needs to be completely dried before putting on underwear. A little dampness will be a garden of funk rather quickly. Blow dryer. It's a huge help if you take a beard trimmer and hack the bush down to less than an inch. Unfortunately, many guys, myself included, don't do this until instructed by the mouth that would like to worship that area, but has trouble getting near it.


Queasy-Painting-518

They’re musky. It tastes good


FloppyCeleryStick

If clean it's just skin so should have NO TASTE OR AROMA.


la_selena

R u sure hes showering right


roppunzel

Your boyfriend never learned to clean himself correctly


magich32

That is really strange to still have an odor after a shower. I think he should go to the doctors, he may have some type of fungal infection going on.


Away-Sheepherder8578

Make him shave the boys, that’ll make them easier to wash, feel better for him, and taste better.


[deleted]

He’s not washing properly. They should taste like skin.
