This Is What Semen Is REALLY Supposed To Taste Like During A Blowjob

As someone who writes about how to have great sex, there are a few questions that people love to ask me (anonymously, or after a few strong cocktails). 

One of the most common questions I'm asked about sex is how to make a man's semen taste better. 

(The second most common question I get asked is, "Oh my god, what does your mom think about what you do?" But that's a whole other article.) 

Straight women in sexual relationships spend a lot of time with their man's penis. 

It's either in their hand, inside their vagina, or if a blowjob is on the menu, inside their mouth. 

So it's no small wonder that women would be curious about how to make their man's semen taste delicious. 

To that end, here are some things you need to understand about your dude's semen in order to reconcile yourself with its flavor. 

1. Vegans and Vegetarians have the best tasting semen.

Do a little digging online and you'll learn something really interesting. People polled are quick to say that men who are vegan or vegetarian have better-tasting semen than men who are not. 

Why's this the case? Probably because diets that include a lot of red meat and dairy have been proven to negatively impact the taste of semen. 

I'm not saying make your dude give up meat, but if his semen tastes too bitter for you, cutting back on dairy and subbing out a steak for a chicken breast can make all the difference in the world. 

2. It's not just food that changes the way his semen tastes.

Diet is definitely a major component when it comes to how his semen is going to taste. 

But it's not just diet.

What other stuff does your partner put into his body daily? Does he drink a lot of coffee? Does he smoke cigarettes? Does he take a lot of recreational drugs? 

These (sometimes delicious) vices don't do the taste of his semen any good. Again, if he is not ready to quit, you can't make him. But cutting back will improve the taste of his semen.

"Wait, if I smoke a little bit less you will gladly put your mouth on my penis?" Yep. That's incentive to be sure. 

3. If it comes from the ground it will improve the taste of his semen.

If you want to make his semen taste better there are roughly eight million different things people will suggest you try. 

Here's an easy rule of them to remember in case all of their tips seem overwhelming: if it comes from the earth, it will make his semen taste better.

So stuff like pineapple, apples, lemons, cherries, strawberries, bananas, etc — these are going to make his semen taste better. 

It's not just his penis that will thank you, either. Incorporating more fruits and vegetables into a daily diet is ALWAYS a good thing. 

4. Semen is always going to taste like semen.

As much fun as a blowjob is (because who doesn't love sucking on a penis lollipop), the semen that comes out of a man's penis when he ejaculates wasn't designed with oral consumption in mind. 

Semen even at its best-testing will ALWAYS taste like semen. It will taste salty and like it came out of a body. 

Semen is never going to be whipped cream, which is good because a lot of people have problems digesting lactose and also the human race would die out. 

You can make semen taste better, but it will always be semen.
