Gross and dirty? No. I mean...as long as everybody's clean and hygienic, right? Maybe if you tried it with him directly out of the shower first. Then he'll smell all clean and fresh and it won't seem quite so...musky.

I'm a firm believer in baby steps when starting something new, so maybe try just licking a little bit first. Kind of like the way you'd lick at a popsicle or lollipop. (especially the popsicle...all the way up and down so it doesn't melt and drip on your hand) I guess bottom line is, practice. Start slow. Use a bit of suction. Use your tongue. Sometimes the use of teeth is beneficial (sparingly and lightly until you're sure). And if all else fails, just give little kisses and licks on the head.

Try to get "gross and dirty" out of your noggin before you psych yourself right out of it, though.
