Doesn't odor usually = problem?

Dear Prudence,
I've been dating my girlfriend for a year now. We get along great and moved in together a couple of months ago. One issue has been causing friction. She wants me to perform oral sex on her, which I did when we first started dating. I enjoy doing it but the problem is my girlfriend’s vagina has a strong odor. I've never been with a woman whose smell made me cringe. I don't want to tell her the reason that I don't want to go down on her because I'm sure it would hurt her. Because of my reluctance, she has stopped performing oral sex on me as a kind of standoff. She has been bringing this up so much that I’m going to have to give her an answer as to why I’m holding my nose.

    Yes, and how do you move in with someone who smells down there?  She must be one of only 4 women in the world.

    i'm sure his nutsack smells like roses and fresh baked cookies. 

    questions - is this a new issue or has she had issues for the whole relationship? 
    is it just BO or is there a fishy smell (like BV)
    why in the world wouldn't he say something to her - she might need to see the doctor.

    Is a precoital shower out of the question? 

    And I am constantly amazed where men are willing to put their dcks. If you can't even put your nose near it, why would you put your dck IN it?

    But wouldn't she want to know why she suddenly stopped?  You'd think she could figure it out.

    Maybe DH and I are just weirdos, but I can't imagine living with someone and feeling too shy to say ANYTHING to them.  I don't think DH would hesitate to talk to me about something like this.

    Oh, my H would never tell me that. He might break down and tell me if I were withholding BJs in retaliation, but he would think I wouldn't react well (and he'd probably be right). I mean, best-case, it would contribute to my self-loathing, just like if I find out I've been snoring or am especially aware of any fat rolls.

    Wouldn't she be able to smell her own funk?  I am amazed by this.  If I have any question about smell, I am mortified...seriously.  Thinking EVERYONE smells it...when really it's just my own crazy nose.

    My DH would do it tactfully, not just hit me with the "you so funky!"  And if it's coming from him, I know he's not being nasty/jerky about it.  If he felt the need to bring it to my attention, it's probably something I should know.

    If she's always smelled bad it's probably just her body.  If it's new she needs a doc.  Either way he should find a tactful way to address it because it's obviously having an impact on the relationship.

    Not sure if it's excessive odor or the writer's only eaten out women that have been summer eve'd into daisy smelling oblivion.

    Perhaps they're going at it after a garlic filled week. Foods can impact a woman's scent/taste just as it can a man's.
