How to prevent masturbation odor?

Unread post by Jack S »

Hi, Every time I masturbate it leaves a smell in the air, even if I don't ejecutante and I don't want other people to know when and where I masturbated. Is there any way to prevent masturbation odor, or do something to make it less strong?
I tried masking the smell with air freshener, but it still smells a little bit.
Thank you

Hi Jack -- bodies have odor, and there isn't much you can do to prevent it from happening. It sounds like your room doesn't have a lot of ventilation or air circulation, which is maybe why a smell is lingering. Do you have a fan? Maybe even an air purifier? Sometimes pushing the air around helps with smells, so maybe putting that on for a while could help. Whenever it's warm out, I suggest cracking a window afterward to get some fresh air in.

Also, bathrooms generally have decent air circulation, perhaps masturbating in there could be a solution as well.

Thanks! I will masturbate in the bathroom from now on.

Another question; does the smell come from the semen or from the body in general?

Hi Jack,

That really depends on the specifics; semen itself does have a faint smell (people often say it smells like bleach or chlorine) but if someone is sweating a lot during masturbation, then that may be the main source of the smell.
And you to whom adversity has dealt the final blow/with smiling bastards lying to you everywhere you go/turn to and put out all your strength of arm and heart and brain/and like the Mary Ellen Carter rise again.
