I'm a 16 year old virgin,and recelty found out what said bumps are and that they are harmless.
I know that it's something that needs to be talked about before the heat of the moment (making sure that they aren't taken for an std) I'm just honestly afraid that they'll be a turnoff...

Re: Is there a best way to bring up Pearly Penile Papules (ppp) with a partner
Hi superking,
You're right that mentioning them before things get hot and heavy is the best idea. You could even mention them during one of your initial conversations about sexual likes, dislikes, and boundaries. There's not a way to guarantee they won't be a turn-off for some people, just like there's no way to guarantee any other part of our body won't turn someone off. If you've mentioned what they are, you've done your bit, and honestly if someone is at the point of wanting to sleep with you, odds are they not going to be dissuaded by this.
