Are very shy women fit to be prostitutes? Also, does semen always smell bad or does it depend on the man?
If by “shy” you mean “painfully introverted” or “extremely modest”, sex work is definitely not for you. Though a whore needn’t necessarily be gregarious (and in fact many are somewhat introverted), she needs to at least be able to meet and smoothly interact with new people in order to carry out the basic activities of her trade. Likewise, she need not be so comfortable with nudity that she can flash crowds on Bourbon Street in broad daylight, but she can’t be so averse to it that she’s paralyzed by the prospect of getting undressed in front of strange men. If, on the other hand, you simply mean the shyness that comes of inexperience and uncertainty, my previous column “Inexperience” may provide an answer.
In answer to your second question: the smell and taste of a man’s semen varies with his body chemistry, health and diet. The semen of two different men living in the same environment, or of the same man under different health conditions or diets, can vary to a surprisingly wide degree; however, some factors (such as muskiness) may be relatively constant in an individual no matter what his diet. In other words, if you find the taste or odor of a man’s semen intolerable, it may be something he’s eating, or it may be due to a health condition, but it could also just be the way he’s put together.
