Make enemas great again...

I remember when enema bags were very common in drug stores and when the Wards and Sears catalogs sold enemas a douches, I always enjoyed looking at all the pictures of them when the new catalog was delivered. There was one drug store in the town I lived in my teenage years that sold individual nozzles and other accessories for enema’s in a rotating display with individual drawers, it looked like a typical hardware store display that held specialized types of nuts and bolts. I was very surprised when I opened the drawers and there was various enema and douche nozzles and other assorted items. I believe enemas are making a comeback with the younger generation of women 20’s and up. They are discovering the benefits of enemas and a proper diet. You will lose weight, help maintain weight and get sexual pleasure from them. You feel more energetic and healthy when you use enemas.

I'm hearing on the news that there is a sharp increase in colo-rectal cancers among younger people. I think that the reason is obvious.... enemas are out of favor. Young people in past generations were given enemas regularly both at home and in hospitals. The later generations have found enemas to be out of favor and have all but disappeared from normal daily life. There is your reason for an increase in cancer among the younger generations. https://en.zity.biz/gallery/image/215099

There’s no legitimate scientific data to support that. More likely it’s diet, obesity, sedentary life style of the younger generation.

Nice thought, though!

In the small city I live in (population just over 100,000) there are probably 50 pharmacies. All sell Fleet enemas but there is only 1 that still sells enema bags and buckets , mostly the disposable type used in hospitals, but also some fountain and bulb syringes. In contrast, the 2 love/sex shops in town both have a wide variety of enema equipment. This is perhaps a bit of anecdotal evidence of the decline of enema popularity in mainstream medicine and the Increasing (?) sexualization of the medical ?

Enemas have to some how become appealing to the younger set. With the fast pace, instant gratification of today. I am not sure that slow, a bit drawn out, and not sure when the "return" ends...that enemas will suit.

I also think we need to restore the importance of enemas.

Maybe another question - among many other's - to the american president, Donald Trump, to change his statement: " make america great again ", in " make enemas great again " !!

I don’t know. The principle advantages of an enema, that they’re guaranteed to work and work right away, might appeal to the instant gratification set. Much more reliable and predictable than a laxative.

If you search for anal sex statistics in millennials, you’ll find references to (non-specified) studies that indicate anal sex, including toys etc are on the rise. More experimentation, fewer taboos, acceptance of gay/lesbian relationships and practices are stated as “factors”. IF these references are true, I’d expect enemas come into play as preparation, and COULD lead to a fetish (my totally baseless assumption). Hence, the younger generations could be cozying up to enemas.

Here’s one reference I found, spews some numbers - but no idea of integrity, accuracy or validity!

It's really too bad that enemas have fallen out of favor in the medical community and in the general population.

I also think it's too bad that spankings have been labeled as child abuse. The spankings I received were warranted and never given in anger. I feel they kept me going in the right direction. I knew what crimes warranted a spanking and so if I committed the crime, I knew what was coming to me.

Now, the kids get time out. I would have loved time out instead of the paddle.

So, my brother's teasing me? Pow!! Just smack him a good one. I would have loved it if my dad had said, "Son, you know better than that and you know the penalty for punching your brother. You're in time out! Now go to your room where all you can do is play video games and surf the internet. Let this be a lesson to you. And remember, punishing you with time out is gonna hurt me a lot more than it's gonna hurt you. And if you cry about it, I'll give you something to cry about--more time out!!"

Talk about an incentive to smack my brother again... even when not provoked... I mean, time out is awesome.

I'd like to add a couple of points:

1. We don't really have any information about enema sales or usage. Walking through Walmart won't tell you because the channel people buy this sort of thing from today is online, not bricks and mortar retail. And I doubt that Amazon would share their sales data, even if they had it rolled up in a useful manner.

2. In order to test the efficacy of water enemas in preventing illness, you would have to have a peer reviewed study and someone would have to fund it. Good luck.

Meanwhile, we're stuck with anecdotal evidence, also called common sense sometimes.. i'm certainly not a representative sample of the country, but I have run into very many people who like enemies and use them. I would love for somebody to pay for a study (for what good it would do) but it would just mainly be for curiosity. You don't have to do a study to look and see the amount of enema equipment being sold online. The question I have is what is it being used for?

So, for what it's worth.

There are market analysis of the enema industry. that indicate 7.06% CAGR. through 2035. Enema Based Products Market Size was estimated at 1424.18 USD Million in 2024.

I'm waiting to see more information based on actual science, which sadly the "MAHA" types don't seem interested in funding. Could be that, could also be chemical exposure or micro plastics, most likely a combination. I find it hard to believe that people in the '60s had a great diet based on the cookbooks I have seen.

M.E.G.A.. : Make Enemas Great Again. Yes, it's important !

I find it rather disheartening that many regard enemas as a dangerous procedure to be relegated to the "last resort" when dealing with the various digestive issues. I suppose that many of us believe that the medical establishment, and Big Pharma, have influenced the move away from that old fashioned enema procedure, and find the financial and/or less time commitment more profitable with the alternatives.

I've also surmised that the dangers have been overstated. I do peruse other sites and blogs, and have noticed that many in the younger generations have bought into the rhetoric concerning their stated negative aspects of enema use. While it's certainly wise to maintain a healthy diet, a simple enema sure didn't kill off many of us from the geeser generation. Mom and grandma weren't serial killers, and the physicians of old weren't complicit in contributing to attrition.

...Mom and grandma weren't serial killers...

Speak for yourself, my friend.

Pinot Noir, unable to resist

Ok so help me find a place for this i never knew it was possable! https://www.temu.com/1pc-silicone-enema---irrigator---cleaning-soft-toy-double---use---no-electricity-needed-g-601105491601099.html

M.E.G.A.. : Make Enemas Great Again. Yes, it's important !

I appreciate your enthusiasm, but why should enemas be "Great"???

Can't they just be "regular" or "small" or even "minuscule"? I've tried Great enemas in the past, and frankly, they were difficult. Took so long to prepare, infuse, retain, & then pass, .... and pass, ....... and pass, ...... and pass again. Regular or small work just fine for me, thank you. No shade on the "Great" or "Enormous" enema folks, y'all can have the enema you want. After all, this is a free country!

Its a pair of rubber shorts with a hose to another pair with a enema nozzle

In my opinion - MEGA means taking whatever feels good. AND helping others learn to enjoy the feelings of a pleasant enema ( or two ). They don't have to be huge, just enjoyable.

MEGA might get bipartisan support in Congress!!

If the Fleet type disposable enema bottles had not been invented, would pharmacies still be selling enema bags like the “old days?”

And if the Fleets didn’t exist, would we still be finding fountain syringes and combination bags hanging in many bathrooms today?

If “the enema” as we know it love it, usually a bag of warm water administered up the behind through through a nozzle or tube, were to become “great” again, I think it would take a generation to adopt the practice once again. It would be “great” to see young women who care for their own health and their families, like the “old days,” to restore the tradition of taking or giving enemas, but the chances of that actually happening? Well, let’s be honest.

Why enemas are so frowned upon nowadays is simply nonsensical to me.

If it helps, there was a lot of pushback when physicians needed to wash their hands. Surgeons too.

To me, a light enema just clears the back pipe - with minimal fuss. People are not young forever. Women have decreased motility and complain about lack of #2. Men get increased prostates and their motiliy goes down too. You can help things get moving where they're stuck using simple water, or can ingest chemicals or put chemicals in the back door.

In my opinion, it is about responsibility - when a commercial drug is developed, the maker takes responsibility and reaps the profit. A free medical procedure means someone takes responsibility but reaps no rewards. Plus people CAN and WILL screw it up, then shout - you made me do it! I'm pretty sure many medically trained people use enemas on themselves and their close ones, but in a clinical setup will dutifully frown about them.

They get told how to read the book and have to stick to it (can anyone say Clinical Practice Guidance Manual)?

MEGA might get bipartisan support in Congress!!

@Denise

No, no, no... Enemas get rid of what's in Congress!

@DocH2O . Now you're talking. To rephrase Joker in Batman. " This Congress needs an enema".

I think it's important for us to remember that most of us were started on enema by our mothers. There was often lots of fear and dread and pain. then many of us started experimenting on our own, and eventually became hooked if you will.

One of my graduate school professors was talking about the unconscious. And he said when you have a topic or memory that both repels and attracts you, you are dealing with the unconscious mind.

I have learned from lots of graduate and post graduate studies that almost all behavior is driven by at least partially unconscious issues. I think most of us would be hard pressed to tell others exactly why we love enemas. We would do our best, but we couldn't reproduce the deep drive that we all have.

Sorry for the lecture.

But for us to expect younger people to become interested in enemas without our teaching and demonstrating them for them is probably unrealistic.

I have converted several young women and one that I was in a relationship with. But, I don't think they ever really got to where they loved them like we do because they didn't have the combination of emotions and surrender of control that happens as a child if you were essentially forced to have them by a caring parent. A few of us discover that we are actually driven by them. Others want no more to do with them.

My apologies if that was too heavy..

I growing up got enemas from my Mom or Grandmother. I found them unpleasant and eventually embarrassing as I grew up. The last enema I received from my Mom was 17. My Mom loved giving them [so it seemed] and my Dad got his share of them as well. Any time I felt a sore throat or any thing coming on...my Mom would insist on taking my temperature rectally....but she had a little trick. She would at the same time of putting in the thermometer up my butt slide a wet soap stick up there pushed and and held there by the thermometer. Then at some point through that irritation of the soap...the thermometer was pulled out and read. eventually that need to poop would hit me and poop I did. Then out would come the bag full of soapy water and I was made to take the whole bag. Needless to say I did not complain of getting sick very much. Every time Mom did this she would strip down to her bra and panties [she did not want to risk soiling her clothes] so naturally to this very day, I get very turned on with women wearing full cut panties...especially while getting an enema. Mom told my Late wife of the procedures and she took over the activities. Unfortunately today enemas have taken a far back row seat where you can only buy cheaply made red fountain syringes in CVS or Walgreens, Now you have to buy equipment over the internet. The little Fleet Bottles have dominated the stores aisles.. It seems that "What's convenient" has taken precedence over the effectiveness of a good old fashioned enema and Ivory soap sticks. However not all is lost...there are still some people out there [in my case, Ladies] that will use the enema in sex and aiding illness thought they are few and far in between. The world would probably be a better place to live if the enema was once again revived as it once was.

I wonder if any of this is related to what we referred to as Women's Lib. At one time it seems to me that men and women enjoyed the dominant submissive parts at least in a role playing sense. Now, submissiveness (to a male) is regarded as almost a character flaw. ...all due respect to those that do appreciate it as a kink, or a lifestyle.

I think you raise a really valid point.

Even many years ago, male submissive were looked down on by many people fortunately, I suppose I'm labeled a "switch" and can give spankings and enjoy them, although I probably would rather receive them.

When I was looking for a partner, I never told them that I wanted to be spanked and thought I would let it evolve if it did. it turns out that the women I knew were not interested in dishing it out, only receiving it.

I did find several including one special one that can really lay it on and I'm grateful.

I think it's important to remember that we are having an enema or spanking relationship with the whole person. It's not just the kinky acting out.

My art mentor told me that the problem with we're trying women is that it's not just the body, but it's also the whole person and you never know what they're going to do or what place they will show up in.

That certainly not meant to be critical, but I think some of us may start to fantasize and think we're going to pull somebody into our fantasy instead of finding out who they are and merging with them in a way that makes sense.

Sorry if that's preaching!
