cum dumpster diving

Oral on a woman who has recently had sexual intercourse with one or more casual partners. Effectively, "sloppy seconds" meets "muff diving" with a side order of creampie.
I married a hot but aging pornstar; my former best buddy married a Sunday school teacher. He'd accuse me of "cum dumpster diving", an ugly pejorative based on "dumpster diving" (retrieval of discarded items from trash for environmental re-use) and "cum dumpster" (a double-standard describing a woman with the sexual morals of a man). It's as if he thought our entire relationship was nothing but an orgy of multiple partners, fucklicking and creampie eating... every night. One day, when he was hitting the bottle and his wife was away, he sheepishly admitted he said what he had as he hadn't had sex in months and regretted many of his own life choices. I love my hotwife.
