Bookmark Discussion Remove Bookmark Report as InappropriateDo your husbands wipe their penis after urinating?I love my husband to pieces, but if there is something that annoys me is seeing this stains of urine on his underwear after he leaves the toilet.
I mentioned this to him many times but he gets upset and feels that I am controlling him.
His trousers always stink of urine and sometime when we are cuddling I’m bed I can smell it too which really puts me off :(
We live in the UK so he’s not circumcised, not sure if that make this problem worse.
Do any of you face this problem?

Mine doesn’t wipe, is also uncircumcised but I’ve never had a smell issue (and he def doesn’t always hydrate the best) is it just your pregnancy nose or an all the time thing? Could you ask him to change his undies before bed? (I just can’t see a man wiping, esp when peeing in public) LikeViolation ReportedReport as InappropriateBilboSwaggins
I have no idea. But definitely let him know you can smell it. If you can, so can his colleagues. LikeViolation ReportedReport as Inappropriate
cloudylemonade1@BilboSwaggins,
oh, it’s not that bad, I can only smell he is on his underwear usually.
I can smell his trousers when I am folding or putting them for wash, not when he is wearing them :) LikeViolation ReportedReport as Inappropriatec-m-1990
My husband and I don’t know what privacy is so we’ll use the restroom while we are in there, I come to find out he dabs with a small piece of toilet paper just to be extra clean *his words* LikeViolation ReportedReport as InappropriateMissDawn
Ew. No, but my husband is circumcised and there’s never urine on his stuff... LikeViolation ReportedReport as InappropriateCCampQuinn
My husband is uncircumcised. He dabs it (with toilet paper) after use. I’ve never noticed a smell. If I did, I would definitely mention it to him. LikeViolation ReportedReport as Inappropriate

My husband and I were jokingly talking about what men do the other day and he told me that men shake it twice and that takes care of it. LikeViolation ReportedReport as Inappropriateooutdoorvo1ce
LOL at this topic. My husband told me he doesn’t wipe with toilet paper after peeing. He never smells like urine and showers before bed. LikeViolation ReportedReport as InappropriateEmilyyy48
I think it’s normal for guys to just shake or wiggle it after using the restroom. Sometimes I’ll see little droplet stains on my husbands underwear when doing laundry but not to the point where I can smell it or it stinks. Maybe it’s because of your husband being uncircumcised? Or are you pregnant or nursing right now? My nose is always on high alert when I’m either of those. I would bring it up to him and see what he says. Maybe he just doesn’t genuinely notice LikeViolation ReportedReport as Inappropriate
cloudylemonade1@Emilyyy48,
yes, I’m breastfeeding, but this has been a problem way before I even got pregnant!
I tried speaking to him but unfortunately he got offended :( LikeViolation ReportedReport as Inappropriatedarkstars12@Emilyyy48,
it has nothing to do with circumcision. I'm in the UK, I work in health care, this is either a medical or personal hygiene issue. men are not routinely circumcised here and do not 'wipe' after urinating as it can iritate the head of the penis, they should shake and squeeze the end. seems like this chap may actually have a urethra issue LikeViolation ReportedReport as InappropriateRozDoyle
Dh and my 6 year old both dab most of the time. They’re circumcised but it’s more like a “just to be extra sure” thing.
I don’t think mentioning it if he’s staining his underwear and stinking of pîss is being controlling. I think it’s gross you’ve told him and he hasn’t done anything about it. Wtf? I’d want someone to tell me if I smelled bad, and I’d sure as heck make sure I fixed the issue.
Have you tried saying, “I have zero desire to have a penis with pîss all over it anywhere near me, sexually or otherwise. Nasty.” Maybe that’ll work. LikeViolation ReportedReport as InappropriateDowagerCountess
I have seen my husband dab before but he definitely does not do it regularly. No odor or stains at all. Like
