Why do young people seem to have such little interest in enemas when anal play is increasingly common?

Hi I'm 18 and I really really! Love enemas and anal play, it seems almost no one in my generation cares much for enemas, even though anal play is increasingly popular. Always seemed strange to me.

I suspect that enemas are a product of a generational preference or bias. Most of us more elderly types, likely received enemas when younger, and came to enjoy them, inasmuch as we discovered the anal stimulation enhanced our genital stimulation.

Many of us didn't pass our preferred methods of dealing with digestive issues to our kids and grandkids. While we still engage ourselves, perhaps we still have some deep seated feelings of guilt or hesitation, that carried on to the younger generations.

While anal sex and stimulation may be more common and acceptable, those who enjoy enemas may be substituting them due to a health, medical need, or other fetishistic desire.

We seem to hope that enemas are becoming a more common and acceptable treatment for many things including sexual stimulation. It's great that you youngsters have discovered enemas!

Welcome to Zity. I suspect that there is more enema use among young people than any of us is aware of. But we are talking about quick, utilitarian anal douches as opposed to full-on, gut-busting bag enemas with large volumes of water. I can only speak as a gay man, but douching with a bulb syringe and a few ounces of warm water prior to anal play is very common in my community. A number of recent surveys indicate that a solid majority of men who have receptive anal sex douche prior to the act. A large minority douche afterwards. This practice is just as widespread amount men in their late teens, 20s and 30s. Pretty much every guy I know who bottoms also douches. That said, the vast majority of guys would tell you that they don't use enemas. Most people see a big difference between an enema and an anal douche, not the least of which are the kind of tools they use to accomplish it and the results they hope to achieve. From my experience, the overwhelming majority of people who use anal douches don't eroticize it or particularly enjoy it. They also don't talk about it casually. But there are lots of them.
