I get so embarrassed talking about this kink sometimes
Not it isn’t. Whatever consenting adults enjoy doing together is good and fine.
It’s super common actually, and i don’t see anything weird about that. It’s really not different than being into how a person looks, or how they feel, or how their voice sounds. A lot of girls like to sniff me when we have sex, and there’s some people whose smell just makes me weak in the knees in the best way possible. I always smell the pillowcase after i’ve had my gal pal over, i know a lot of girls who sleep in a used t-shirt of their partner when they’re not around specifically because it smells like them, i think armpits are also the most common kink on German grindr etc., it’s really not unusual.
I read the title as something way worse at first…
but no I don’t think it’s wrong or even weird really, I don’t see why sexuality shouldn’t include all 5 senses
just don’t be like the guy from Perfume: The Story of a Murderer, that would be taking it too far
Absolutely that’s how I feel. I just try not to be gross about or crude towards people.
I think the bear website hashed this out once, and the conclusion was it’s not brought up much on account that it’s sort of awkward since people can’t fully control how they smell, but it’s also a very normal thing between partners. Also there’s an entire “musk kink” (like the smell, not this jackass) thing among tumblr transfemmes which was neato =)
I think as a fetish it’s probably rarer, but “wrong”? Nope.
While I don’t consider it a fetish I have a very strong sense of smell and it’s very important to me with a partner.
I dated a smoker once and it was hell.
My partner smells nicer to me than baking bread or baby heads, which are the next two nicest smells.
I can often tell when she’s getting sick before she can because her breath smell changes to a certain way.
