.........

I consider myself pretty open-minded, but I've never understood the whole ass-to-mouth thing that has become so commonplace in porn. Nothing about it appeals to me. I would be especially wary of the potential exposure to E. coli.

I would recommend researching the side effects... E-coli reactions/ bacterial infection, Hepatitis,.... to name a few.

The problem is first.... what lube can you use that is edible and doesnt taste weird

Yeah, cause don't you just hate it when you're sucking on a freshly used anal toy and the lube tastes weird?

But seriously, as far as tasty lube goes, coconut oil is probably a good bet.

I guess sucking an anal massager might save on anti-bacterial soap and make the occasional boiling unnecessary.

Is the original post serious?

It may be heartening to remember that >99.99% of bacteria on that tool won't cause a fatal condition.

The girls in those anal videos tend to do a Fleet enema prior to anal sex to remove any stools from the rectum. Also, those concerned about E. Coli, Hepatitis, etc; remember the original poster is talking about their own asshole, not someone else's. So while it may turn a few stomachs, this guy's only (re)consuming his own bacterial flora, not a foreign pathogen. I think the risk is more if the toy is coming from someone else's asshole rather than your own.

One's own bacterial flora can still pose a health risk, as in the case of peritonitis resulting from a perforated colon. Obviously, the harmful bacteria count would be much lower on an anal toy, but I still wouldn't consider the risk (e.g., vomiting, diarrhea) worth the reward (tasting my own ass).

[COLOR="blue"]the topic is "Taste" ...
but it's really kinda tasteless
... although, I'm certain, prob'ly not without taste

- rip

i can never man up to try the taste yet in many anal videos girls seem to love tasting their ass holes. Any input is great thanks guys!!!

Well, did you see that superman flying around in a cape? Well, why don't you jump off a build to check if you can fly too?

Can't believe some people can't tell a movie from reality. Substituting a clean one, or suck first then insert with some editing reordering.

In the case of a perforated colon, I'm doubtful the original poster would be in the mood to use an anal toy.

I'm saying in a healthy, non-diseased, non-immunocompromised individual with an intact GI-tract; one should not have to worry about one's own personal bacterial flora. More so if he does an enema beforehand.

Not my cup of tea personally, but if it floats JimmyBoy's boat I say he should be fine as long as he hasn't hit any new (questionable) restaurants, street food establishments, has drunk any swamp water recently, or plans on taking any stab wounds or GSW to the abdomen.

In the case of a perforated colon, I'm doubtful the original poster would be in the mood to use an anal toy.

What I meant was merely that peritonitis is an example of how your own bacterial flora can harm you if it manages to enter sectors of your body that should remain sterile. I agree that the dangers of tasting one's own anal toy can probably be reduced with good hygiene, although the flavors would then not be nearly as bold.

To Jimmyboy: Most people seem not keen on the idea themselves, but your curiosity is admirable. I think you should go for it and please report back on your findings.

Hello Jimmyboy1212,

While it has been noted above by you and others that you're talking about the taste of your "own ass hole," remember that it's your ASS HOLE!

Consider that the normal flora (bacteria) of the rectum (and anus) is just that, normal flora for the rectum (and anus), not the mouth (tongue, teeth, gums), not the esophagus, not the stomach, and not the latter tract of the small intestine. The normal flora, while inside your rectum (and colon), did not come from you nor was it created from your own DNA. It is foreign to your body and it was introduced by things you ate and were exposed to. The normal flora that is found residing in different parts of your body most often has a symbiotic relationship with your body and provides certain benefits to you, but if these bacteria are introduced to different to areas where they don't belong, they may react in a way that is not symbiotic and ultimately they may become pathogenic.

If you "suck it clean," you will run the risk of introducing pathogens where they don't belong. You're an adult, making an adult decision. Only you can decide what's right for you.

Decide well.

[COLOR="blue"]If I were into anal sex - that is, if I were preparing to bone my partner's bung hole ...
especially bareback with my own naked erection
... why would I hesitate on chowin' down on her/his posterior love tunnel?

p.s. When I pull my progasm outta my ass it's still white ...
one time only I found a fecal stain on the aneros
... since then I'm a true believer in the 60ml warm H2O prep.

Taste !
In every human undertaking there is a lunatic fringe.

I imagine that Shit tastes like Shit.
Only my imagination speaking you understand.

Your nose is one of your senses.
My nose has kept me out of trouble in the past and will continue to do so.

Keep clean, stay safe.

now that's funny!

i would like to give the original poster of this thread a little more credit. its possible his interest was in the scatological. if so, then he has plenty of company out there in the world where unusual sexual interests roam free. and i agree that there might be some issues of safety.

but perhaps he was interested in a different taste. it is the funky earthy taste of our nether regions. different then vagina, but still very intriguing. have any of you ever rimmed or been rimmed? rimming brings incredible pleasure, and, if the "rim" is clean, has a distinctive and lovely taste, providing a fine experience to the rimmer. not like shit at all!

A classic line (one I will not soon forget). But all kidding aside, one's sense of smell cannot accurately detect the presence of benign or pathogenic bacteria. Engaging in A to M activity carries the potential for some contamination. As others have pointed out the normal flora of the mouth and colon/rectum are two different things. When one engages in such behavior it carries some risk. The risk can be mitigated somewhat by enemas and washing, but it will never be eliminated entirely, unless one uses a dental dam or a cut up condom. As one who has engaged in this activity in the past, giving and receiving, I will admit it can be very sensual. For me, it was never something for casual partners and on such occasions I did attempt to limit the risk. But nonetheless, I accepted a certain amount of risk in doing this. That said, I was never really tuned in to the taste...much more about the sensation for me.

Be safe!
