If I keep a male plant and a female plant in my bedroom will the pollen smell and get all over my sh!t? I want to keep the two separate from the rest of the grow room...

I don't think the pollen will smell any worse than the female flowering plant. Also if you are really serious about keeping the male pollen away from the rest of the garden then you should do more than just move it to another room. Pollen will get on you clothes and then into your flower room when you check on it.

Pollen remains viable for years, and can travel miles on a slight breeze.

how would one suggest I handle and store the male if I obviously want to keep the pollen out of the grow room?

Shower, clean clothes straight out the drier etc. before you enter the grow room.
Basically, just remember she wants to mate, and the other room contains what she wants to mate with.

Why not just toss the male plant? Sure it will give you some smokeable stuff but unless you are trying to get seeds there is not much point.

of course its the seeds Im after. I prefer to grow from seed rather than from clones. I just think they grow a lot better and the strain Im trying to obtain seeds for I dont know the name of only that its good shtuff.
