Is this really a thing?

[Whatinallthatisholy]

So spent a night with friends and as sometimes happens we end up on a very strange tangent.

Male friend begins telling a story which included a comment about men tasting their own semen. When challenged on it we were assured it was a thing, that men get curious and there's no way that our husbands haven't done this. We've all asked and no one else has, whilst friend is adamant loads of his male friends have done so and it's perfectly normal to be inquisitive about the taste.

Is this a thing!?

IABU: it's a thing
IANBU: wtf? No, it's not a thing!

Promise I'm not a troll, just name changed. Been on here and remember howling at crying in the Sistine Chapel, Mexican house thief, cancel the cheque, penis beaker etc etc.

Omg 😂

Well sure, just like most women have tried their own breast milk?

All a bit gross though.

Did you meet on 1st?

Sounds like it's a thing but also sounds like something you wouldn't admit to women.

No I couldn't try my milk. Not sure why. My husband did though, he was very curious and tasted some I'd pumped.

Normally occurs during the late teens - I can remember boys discussing it not envy

Euwwww

It’s eeeuuuww but then this is men we're talking about. 😳

I think your friend is right. I don't see it as weird or disgusting. After all, you may well have swallowed way more than your man has ever tasted!

We had the same conversation and OF COURSE they’ve done it, anyone who hasn’t is fibbing but embarrassed to say.

Like the proportion of people who admit to tasting their own bogies. Everyone will swear blind they haven’t but I bet most people secretly have.

As if your husbands are going to admit it knowing how grossed out you are about it!

I don’t get why people think this is weird or icky for a man, but absolutely normal if a woman swallowed?

I agree with this comment. It's not poo, it's not toxic. A quick taste out of curiosity isn't insane

I did the mistake of googling.

Apparently a lot of people ask that, and there are lots of pages and yes answers so yes.. it's a thing. Not necessarily a good thing.. but a thing.

Me neither. If a bloke's curious then what's the harm?

Mine is denying it and I think I believe him. Personally I probably would have tasted.

He says post wank men get this awful feeling of ‘like you want to Chuck yourself off a bridge, regret and disgust at yourself’ and apparently this is a common thing among men. They’ve discussed it in the pub. So apparently that puts you off tasting it

How much if your own self have you tasted?

I have met men who would refuse to kiss if I were to swallow, which is fine, no BJ for them, their choice. But I think most have tasted, which I think is only fair if they want me to do do.

Safe from behind the anonymity of the internet I can say that as a small child I tasted my own wee AND my own poo, as an adult I fully embraced the Oedipal ickiness of drinking breast milk straight off the boob (many men find this disgusting which mystifies me), I am generally a taster and a sniffer, and have a very high disgust threshold, but there is no fucking way my seamen is going anywhere near my mouth.
I can’t say why that is, and I know other men have done it, but for me absolutely hell no. Never. Nope.
I couldn’t tell you

*semen
(I don’t have any seamen, but if I did they wouldn’t be going anywhere near my mouth either.)

Sounds like normal curiosity to me.

Urgh, definitely should have clicked on the scrambled egg thread.

I have never tasted any of my bogeys ! Breast milk- yes , I licked it off my arm when it squirted everywhere .

You do know this is what every troll says, right?

I know my OH has tasted it, whether it's been after kissing me after a BJ or going down on me after we've DTD, never a complaint from either of us Xx

I can’t believe I’m actually typing this but my partner will have definitely tasted his own on my mouth. I honestly don’t think he’ll have purposely tasted his own. I’ve never tasted my ‘juices’ and I never tasted my breast milk and never felt curious to.. now I feel I’ve missed that chance

I feel a bit icky now having written that

🤣 that sounds like a complete lie, concocted by someone who doesn't want you to know how much he wanks 🤣
