I like the smell of end day unwashed pussy myself. And some people look at me like I’m crazy and nasty when I bring up my smell kink

    Fair, I guess it’s entirely just about normalisation vs not? I wonder if it’s ever been not-weird to discuss how someone smells in a “phwoar she’s a looker” awooga kind of way. “Phwoar she’s a smeller” conjures an entirely different emotion in me.

      Just a supposition but…

      I’d say it probably has something to do with the fact that sight is our “primary” sense, the one we rely on and pay attention to the most, whereas smell, we don’t really pay attention to it on a day to day basis, except in the presence of a very strong smell good or bad.

      It reflect on our vocabulary too, we have a lot of words to describe extensively and exactly what we see (color, shade, texture, shape, etc…) but very little words to describe what we smell.

      Maybe it’s different for blind peoples? Or species with a strong sense of smell?

        Oooo this would be really interesting to get perspective on but it’s gonna be super weird trying to ask.
