Need advice woman to woman....my spouse is mexican?

Question

i asked this in another category and got stupid answers.

hello. I am a white female. my husband is mexican. before him, i was only physically involved with white men, never had any black men.

where i am going with this is this: I want to know- is it normal for mexican men to have an "ethnic" smell on their skin? especially 'down there'? he smells different all over, its different from white men. he bathes every day, down there too, i've showered with him, but there is a skin odor. it's not pleasant.

so if any of you are wives or GF's of black or mexican men, I want to know if this is normal?

when i had white BF's, they all smelled like 'nothing' or even sweet after bathing. it was just skin and was never repulsive.

I asked him last night to wash again 'there' before we were intimate. he looked at me funny.

i dont know what to do, i am not mean or unkind, but i have to do something cuz my stomach turns.

thank you kindly for any help.

Answer 1

maybe he needs to tighten up on his personal hygeine, not to be funny. Indian people tend to have a smell to them too( like curry). it just depends on the person really. I 've dated guys of different races and they smelled pretty normal. maybe it's just him.

Answer 2

My fiance is black and i know exactly what you mean! But the only difference is that i love the smell lol. Everytime im around a black guy and i can smell them, i think it smells great lol. Especially my fiace. woohoooo.  

Answer 3

It could be from what he is eating or just not washing as well as he should. Try a new soap and a new technique. You take a shower together - romantic - and you wash him in the shower and get a wash cloth full of suds and scrub it up! In and out etc etc.

He may not get the hint but you can see if there is another problem causing it. but you will know he is clean and the smell is for another reason!

Answer 4

Actually, the armpits and pubic area have apocrine sweat glands which

is what you are talking about.  Ceruminous glands are actually

modified apocrine glands, but are located only in the ear, and produce

cerumen, which is earwax.  The odor associated with apocrine glands is a product of the bacterial digestion of their secretions.  I would

surmise that the mix of bacteria is different in the two areas,

resulting in different metabolites of the digestive process, which

results in different odors.  Many "ethnic" persons have different smells as a result of an overactivity of the ceruminous glands.  One might try washing "down there" with a feminine wash (I'm being serious- Summer's Eve's hypoallergenic formula is specifically designed to take care of such problems), perhaps even trimming the pubic hair to cut down on bacteria.  Above all, try not to make your husband feel uncomfortable by this.  He's not the only one with such a problem.  (And don't feel bad for asking either!  You don't know until you ask!)

Answer 5

stop giving him tacos and enciladas every night with the refried beans...he needs a better diet.

and make sure he is not sucking down too much tequilla...

all that makes you stink!!

Answer 6

Does he eat a lot of Mexican food?  Maybe it's all the Cumin.  It has a strong smell.  Indian people often smell like Curry.  I guess it could be the same thing.

Answer 7

its the food he is eating, some people from specific countries smell bad due to the spices they add to their food.
