I suppose one could use an antibacterial mouthwash afterwards; this just occurred to me after reading your question.

I'm new, so, this may be a dumb question, but, I have never licked an anus before.
Is there anything, other than standard washing, that is normally done before or after?

With someone you are fluid bonded with or not?

Fluid bonded...my bottom is shower fresh. Oh, and since I squick easily...I make bo wash me very carefully there as well, AND (you are warned that I'm a germ-o-phobe, right?) a cotton pad with hydrogen peroxide is rubbed around. Then I can relax without being badly squicked.

Am I a giver as well as receiver? Nope.

For someone I'm not in a fluid bonded relationship with (for me personally, this means he's also my boyfriend, we're monogamous, and both of us have had complete panels done for STDs)...I'd be shower fresh, ass crack lubed up and some Saran Wrap between me and the tongue.

And NEVER after I've eaten Mexican food.

For safer sex, I preferred reading Magic Johnson's book to Dr. Ruth's and others. I don't remember the title but he cannot have written many STD prevention books.

Listerine before & after.

Take a good look to make sure you can't see any sores (like herpes) or any tiny white wiggling things (worms).

LOL, and here I'd been trying so hard not to mention ingesting microscopic worm eggs. My sister and I used to walk around barefoot a lot when we were kids and were forever getting pin worms (or whatever they call them). In later years, my kid caught them in special ed preschool.

These make someone's butt itch, so watch out for signs of irritation or someone scratching. It's no big deal for both of you to get a pill each from some clinic to get rid of them. I'm just saying...these could be present without anyone seeing tiny white wigglers.

Oh, and as weird as I am about germs...the person I'm with had better be less so. If he had to disinfect their mouth before and afterward, when I damn well knew I was clean...it would ruin the experience for me.

Long time ago I had a boyfriend who hated going down on women but since I loved going down on him he felt guilty for not returning the favor. Especially after guys at his job told him that he wasn't being fair and that I'd might trade up and find someone else who would "do the right thing". Anyway, what it boiled down to was...my being shower fresh...having washed with strawberry shampoo and very well rinsed, as bar soap leaves too pungent an odor for me to be comfortable with...and him insisting on going down on me. With his tongue stuck out of his face. He'd rub it around for a while, not pulling his tongue back into his mouth, leaving a huge puddle of drool all over me and the bed, then racing to the bathroom, when he figured he'd done enough, to wash his face and tongue with soap before putting his tongue back in his mouth. It. Was. A. Bitch. I hated every moment but this is what his guilt drove him to. After several times of him making me feel like sh*t, I would fight with him if he tried to insist that "tonight was the night" he would go down on me again.

If you hate it, don't do it. (Unless your partner WANTS you to hate it.)
