Penis Odor: Date Night Disaster

Going on a date, especially a first date, means that a guy wants to be prepared to make the best possible impression. That’s why reducing the possibility of unwanted penis odor is so crucial for a man. When a guy has neglected proper penis care in this area, it can have disastrous consequences - sometimes even before the trousers come off.

First impressions count
 
We all know how important first impressions are. That’s why a guy takes the time to make sure his hair looks just right, picks out clothes that accentuate his best physical features and adds just the right amount of cologne or aftershave to give him a slight whiff of sensuality. Even when going out with a particular woman for the hundredth time, guys still want to make sure that they are as appealing as possible.

Unfortunately, rank penis odor can knock all those good impressions for a loop. Why should that be? Well, first because penis odor can truly be overwhelming. Most men are not aware of how pungent the penis can get when proper care is not taken with it. A guy becomes used to the smell of his own body. And the fact that most men’s noses rarely find themselves in close proximity to their own penis limits their direct exposure to the strength of the stench.

But beyond the sheer unpleasantness of an overly-aromatic penis, there’s also the message that it sends about cleanliness. A strong odor from the region gives out signals that this is a dude who does not pay proper attention to bathing and personal hygiene. A woman may think, "If he doesn’t take care to properly clean his penis, maybe he doesn’t take proper care in terms of keeping it safe from STIs as well."
Finally, a woman may simply feel insulted if a guy presents with an odorous member. "Am I not worth taking a minute or two to get clean for?" she may wonder and may therefore move the offending male to the "discard" pile.
Why the smell?
 
Why is penis odor such a problem? First, it’s important to note that a certain degree of odor is not bad; a faint whiff of pheromone-fuel can be valuable. What is being discussed here is odor that goes beyond this level.

The penis tends to emit odors because it is usually in a heated situation. Nestled beneath both a pair of underpants and a pair of trousers, it’s in a location where the heat factor is doubled. The presence of hair in the area adds to the heat, as does the rushing of blood to the penis during times of erection. All this heat creates a sweatbox situation, which in turn leads to odor.

What to do
 
There are several ways that a man can reduce unwanted penis odor. For example, sometimes eating too much of a food with a strong odor (such as asparagus or fish) can have an impact. The sweat that is released may carry some of that odor with it.

Airing out the penis can also help. Regularly spending an hour or so each day naked allows air to circulate in the area. (Doing this right before a date is recommended as well.)

Most important, however, is tending to the proper hygiene of the member. The penis should be washed regularly with a gentle cleanser or just warm water. If a man is intact, washing beneath the foreskin is essential.

Date night or not, penis odor care also benefits from the regular use of a quality penis health crème (health professionals recommend Man1 Man Oil). A crème with vitamin A will have anti-bacterial properties that can attack the root cause of penis odor. Eliminating harmful bacteria opens the path for a better-smelling manhood. If the crème also contains vitamin D, so much the better: this vitamin enables better cell functionality, helping to maintain general penis health. And a healthy member is a happy member.

Erect Penis Fashion: Dressing the Member for a Fun Date

Going on a date is a very pleasurable experience, especially when the evening includes some play time for the man's erect penis. When a couple has been in a relationship for an extended period of time, the date night needs to be livened up occasionally. Assuming that the male has been practicing appropriate penis care and the manhood is in good health, one route for keeping things lively is to let one's penis exhibit a little fashion sense. Dressing up the dude down below can add whimsical fun and quite a few laughs to a date night.

Condom fun
Now, often an erect penis has a regular outfit that he likes to don - a sporty latex condom, for example. Snug and designed to show off the member's physique, condoms are an excellent starting point for adding a little zing to the festivities. Too many guys stick to one color option - often the functional but rather boring "clear" - when investing in rubbers. There's no reason not to explore other hues and see how one's erect penis looks in a hypnotic blue, a sizzling red, a vibrant yellow or a seductive green.

There's also no reason to stop with color. Textures, such as ribbing, can add flair to the look - and may add some extra flair to the sex itself as well. And some condoms have variation in their shape, with a cinched neckline for example. Don't be afraid to try out a few to see what looks good - and make sure to ask for one’s partner's opinion!

Put a ring on it.
Penis rings serve a valuable function, helping many men to maintain their erections. But beyond this practical use, they can also add a little bling-bling to the man-thing. These rings come in a variety of materials, including metal, plastic, leather and cloth. Cruising the internet (or one's local sex supply emporium) with one's partner to choose the appropriate ring can add some oomph to a date even before the sensual action begins. (Do remember that penis rings are meant to be worn only for a limited amount of time, no matter how much aesthetic they add to the manhood.)

Tie one on.
Neckties can be a bit of a pain for some guys, but dressing up the penis with one can be rather enjoyable. Most neckties are too long for comfortable penis wear, but with some nice fabric and scissors an appropriate penis tie can be made with little trouble. For more fun, a man should invite his partner to tie it on.

Costume party
Wearing costumes doesn't have to be limited to Halloween. A penis costume can be simple or complicated. On the simple side, draping a handkerchief (or for the very well-endowed, a white towel) over the erect penis transforms it into a mighty spooky ghost. Add a small red cape and draw an "S" on it and the penis becomes a world-famous superhero. Place a green or brown sock over it and a man has a legitimate trouser snake. Or those who are more ambitious may opt to search out some appropriately-sized doll clothes (complete with hat, of course) and do a real dress-up number. Just make sure whatever is used can be removed quickly and easily whenever that erect penis gets the signal that it's time to move from playtime to the main event.

Adding erect penis fashion to a date night can make for a fun evening. So a man needs to be sure to regularly use a first-class penis health crème (health professionals recommend Man1 Man Oil) to keep his manhood in good health for the date's finale. This is especially true if any of the costuming choices might irritate the sensitive penis skin. A crème with a high-end emollient (like Shea butter) partnered with a natural hydrator (like vitamin E) will provide the soothing moisture that will alleviate itching and keep the penis skin smooth and supple. Another important ingredient for an effective penis health crème: vitamin B5. This crucial supplement plays a vital role in penis cell metabolism and the healthy maintenance of important penile cells.
