That awkward moment: you have bad breath! Please have some listerine.

That awkward moment: you have bad breath! Please have some listerine.

 

Has that ever happened to you with an escort or a client?

 

How was his reaction?

So far they've all been grateful. For inconvenient truths such as this one, I subscribe to: It's not what you say but how say it.

I believe that there is a proper way to handle this awkward moment, whether the remedy is breath mints, chewing gum, or mouthwash:

 

Take some mouthwash yourself, and ask "would you like some?" Hopefully, a light bulb will go off, and they'll say "oh, yes, thank you," and the awkwardness will be avoided. If they don't get it, smile and politely say something like "no, I insist."

 

And, a note to all: if you are ever offered breath mints, chewing gum, or mouthwash, always accept graciously. When someone says "Would you like breath mint?" they mean "You need a breath mint!"

I can understand as an oversight after dinner but if they show up with breath that could peel the paint off wood or where their literally talking shit then hell no. Dates over. Never again. I just don't do halitosis breath.

 

That goes for any cleanliness issues. I consider it as a disrespect.

So, your assumption is that they are aware that they have bad breath, or, more remarkably, that they have bad breath on purpose? Absent of other signs of bad hygiene, I'll give them the benefit of the doubt. Halitosis can be caused by a wide variety of factors and I think that, in many cases, people are unaware that they have a problem.

I always heard, from doctors, using mouthwash before oral sex was not wise. Neither is flossing too soon before oral sex.

Hmmm...Maybe a lollipop is in order instead?

You're assuming no one's ever told them they have shitty breath. If that's the case then yes I agree. However, I'm sure some people have which means you should have every method at your disposal to eliminate it. That or you just don't care and it's back to square one.

Side story - When I travel or do an outcall I bring mouthwash with me and I normally use it right before I arrive and spit when I get out of the car. Well this one particular time I was meeting someone at his side of the highway hotel, so before the exit I get out the mouthwash and as soon as I park I open the door and spit. No big deal, right? Well naturally this guy was nervous so he had planned to come down early and be outside out of sight when I arrive, so literally the first time he ever saw my face it was out of a car door spitting a mouth full of mouthwash. Super attractive I'm sure...We had a great time though.

This, sadly, is one of those things that someone first said vaguely quoting what some "doctor" said or what this person remembered, and it caught on like fire.

 

I have directly asked this question to a large amount of doctors, dentist and epidemiologist and at first some say "sure". Once probed however they all change their tune to "If you are not flossing to the point of haemorrhaging gums, and won't gargle with bloody cum for five minutes, it really doesn't matter. As for mouthwash, it will only give the cock a little tingle that some really like."

 

Wisdom of the ages: If you spit and there's blood in your spit, don't suck cock. If you spit and there is blood in your spit after flossing, there's a bigger problem, go see your dentist. If the cock you are wanting to suck is bleeding, has open cuts or sores, if it is suppurating or excreting viscose fluid, don't suck it.

 

It's really simple.

 

If your partner refuses to brush his teeth, floss or otherwise make his fetid breath kissable, don't kiss him.

 

If your escort politely asked you to brush your teeth and use mouthwash and if you go to the bathroom and pretend brushing for ten seconds, don't be surprised that he won't kiss you.

 

He is a human being, not a fucking saint.

 

And no, a listerine breathstrip simply won't cut it.
