That unscented baby wipes thing isn’t a huge, commonly passed on thing by moms. I use it. I started using it by accident, though. I lived with my sister (who had a baby), so we always had baby wipes around the house. We used them for everything because they were always there. When I moved to a dorm room, I kept a box on my desk. I used it to wipe my hands since there was no sink readily available if I was eating chips. Iused it to clean the soda that someone spilled on my floor. Etc. And it just sort of ended up that I used it after masterbation one day. I was so happy :-) When I got my own place, I put a box in the bathroom.

Since that first time after masterbation, I started using it after sexual encounters. Every partner that I’ve introduced the idea to has thought it was great and wished they’d thought of it sooner! *giggles* There are several women out there now happily sharing the idea with their newest partners. Yay to babywipes.

If I think I may be getting amorous soon, the next time I use the bathroom, I wash my genitals with some water from the faucet (no soap). Sort of rinse ‘em down. And if it’s later in the day, I’ll also change my panties.

I’ve noticed that using various kinds of pads and such tend to make my smell stronger – sometimes to a point that even I don’t like. I think it’s whatever is in the pads reacting with my body. Plain cotton panties (or at least cotton crotches) may also affect you.

I’ve also been told that certain foods (I can’t think of them) will affect your taste/smell. I don’t know how true it is, but citrus is said to be good and garlic and coffee and such are said to be bad. I gave up coffee. Sadness ensued. I drink it once every few weeks now to maek me happy (it’s not a smell thing, it’s a tummy thing that involves needing to take pills in order to survive my every now and then coffee experience). You’d have to REALLY want to make a change in order to miss that yummy, dark goodness!
