While I'm not as much of a stickler about it as you are, there is a level to which sweat and dirt goes from yummy to yucky. I don't make a big deal out of it, I just let them know that we need to do a clean off in the shower before we do anything else. More than anything, it's the smells that get to me. So even cleaning isn't necessarily the answer because if a person uses a very strong soap, aftershave, lotion, toothpaste or anything- it will make me nauseous. So while I love taking showers with my partners, they know I prefer using my own products on them and we wait awhile after they've done their toilette before getting into deep kissing and such. This occurs with food and drink as well- any alcohol taste turns me off, or other strong food smells. As long as your needs for cleanliness aren't interfering generally with your happiness or your partner's happiness, then I wouldn't be too concerned. We all fall somewhere along the smell/clean spectrum and some people have to be the "oddballs." Just find another oddball who works with you. As far as protection from rimming, I'd say other than perhaps washing the outside and first part of the inside with a warm washcloth, there's really not much to do that won't pretty much ruin the sensation (the whole point of doing it). Some people use dental dams and plastic wrap, but I find it pointless and just to use anal sex toys at that point. It's simply a part of the body intended to stay warm, moist, and hairy. You might even ask if he could shave the area for it as an extra sensation treat- but really, this might be something you just have to say is incompatible with your clean needs.
