I think I've said this before in another discussion on the topic... but the texture (and perhaps the taste) is something like a mouthful of warm, runny snot that you've just sucked out of someone else's nose. I don't know many guys who are turned on by THAT idea, lol... but I guess the fact that it's being ejected out of their sexual organ is what makes it actually hot for them.
Doesn't change the texture for the one swallowing it, though.
I should also mention that I was 100% more willing to swallow after he willingly tasted his own spunk. There was no longer a double standard, which is what held me back somewhat up until that point. If he's willing to swallow his stuff, then I will, too. Have you tried that approach, rahl?
