  I understand you might feel self-conscious about after unprotected sex if it causes a smell, but it is not good practice to rinse your vagina with water, vulva is ok but not vaginas. Vaginas are self cleaning, semen is taken out with vaginal discharge.

    I don’t mean doing some deep cleaning and yeah it might not be all natural to wash out cum but it’s pretty nasty if someone doesn’t do that.

    It’s like how washing your hair with products isn’t natural and can actually take away good oils and stuff, but people are still going to be put off if your hair is mad oily and smelly.

      I think the disconnect here is that washing your hair usually doesn’t lead to health problems the way washing a vagina does (douching even with water causes pelvic inflammatory disease, for example). It is your choice, I just wanted to provide information about vaginal health because this mentality sounds like it comes from shame rather than any health reason. It’s not nasty (again, shame), vaginas do have smells like when you’re on your period. Mine only smelled weird with one partner, and even then I’ve never had a smell for very long unless there was an actual infection going on. Smells are usually no big deal, assuming there isn’t an infection. I know you mentioned it smelling “rank” before, I think you might benefit from visiting a gynecologist. Again, no shame, vaginas are a normal part of life for some of the population.

  It’s not going to be rank. Vaginas are self-cleaning - this is one reason we have discharge. You don’t wash out a vagina.

  The vulva can be cleaned with water or (for those who can tolerate it without developing irritation or an infection) an intimate soap.
