It’s the quantity. And also, by the time you’ve filled a cup of spit, it has cooled and dried a bit, maybe even breaking itself down, resulting in an increased viscousity, giving it a very unpleasant mouthfeel.
I get that the OP asked a question, but did you have to answer it with this level of detail?
I can’t help it. When someone asks a question, I spit up an answer
I feel the same way about cum that isn’t directly from the “tap.” Somehow it’s fine from the source, but you put it in a shot glass and suddenly it’s disgusting.
I love furries and their sexpositivity. This comment made my day.
Huh. What about piss? Like if you pee in your own mouth directly, is that less disgusting?
That’s fine. Also fine if another dude pisses in my mouth. Or a bunch of other dudes.
👅
Still disgusting, but a bit less. Still pretty revolting though!
What if it’s sterile and you enjoy the taste?
that’s called a kink and you may be projecting
If you can dodge a kink you can dodge a ball
I feel the same way about breast milk. From a glass? No thank you. From the tap? Yes please.
This doesn’t apply to excrement, does it?
Why would it?
It might to a coprophile.
I swallow my own spit all the time. It’s not disgusting
When you take a drink, there’s backwash into the drink, and most people finish their glasses. And they don’t feel like it tastes any worse.
If you have trouble finishing off your own drinks, it’s a psychological issue not a physiological reaction to your own saliva
I think on this it would more mean, if you had to fill a cup with your saliva only, then drink it, there would be aversion to do so. However if it stays inside your mouth the whole time as regular saliva then the aversion wouldn’t be there.
The question comes down to, why the sudden aversion to drinking it?
maybe you should put your spit into a sodastream and carbonate it
Same reason you wear your socks the whole day but once you remove them they become eww. Human brain is weird in that regard. Probably has evolutionary reasons but from an entirely rational POV it’s weird.
I had some oral mucositis that caused some excessive saliva production. There was one time I accidentally swallowed a mouthful of it, it immediately caused me to vomit.
Freshness?
You are swallowing that saliva during the day. Usually we make 0.5 and 1.5 liters daily (for us measurements 2 to 4.2 cups). And that needs to go somewhere. And it is very important part of our oral hygiene too.
Fluids that exit the body is like this. Only exception is blood from your own kin and tears. Anything else gets very dirty once out of body. Sweat, urine, vomit etc
Spit in a cup and drink it and watch how your peers react.
Are you drinking your kin’s blood and tears?
