Should more kinksters be into enemas?

Haven't posted in a while because almost everything has been discussed one place or another. By way of background, my social media of choice is/are Zity and FetLife. On Fet, especially, but to a significant degree here on Zity, too, I have noticed that there is (are?) a large number of people who are very heavily into things anal, but a far fewer number of folks who will even mention an interest in or use of enemas. I should state here that I am very deeply into giving and getting enemas for any number of reasons. Anyhow, it occurred to me that an enema is a great way to make the insertion of virtually anything easy and comfortable. Enemas do not need to be messy, uncomfortable or large to achieve this end. A bulb syringe of just plain H2O will usually produce the desired results with very little mess and no discomfort at all. Do enemas need a publicist...or a massive ad campaign? Your thoughts!!

Disagree! Zity has a large member interest in enemas!

Agree with Rigel. I haven't done a count but I'd say enemas are in the top 3 kinks here on zity.

Considering Zity was first and foremost an enema site originally, I believe. It goes without saying that there are a lot of enema enthusiasts on this site, myself not included.

Just my understanding of the history of Zity. I may be wrong.

I don't think there's any "should" when it comes to kinks.

@drooaygah I think you are right. Kinks are not something you have a choice over, they just happen.

Some people like Chevys, some like Fords. No different for kinks. We’re both into anal, but BA has no interest in enemas. Theres no correlation.

Agree with all above. Most of the people (including myself) use enemas strictly as a tool. Degrees of enjoyment could vary, sure, but improving to a kink is something person have to decide for itself, judging on its senses and feelings

The only related things, which could be more spread are enema recepies, because, figuratively speaking, everyone use only a simple wrench, despite having a whole toolbox

Enemas are the perfect prelude to anal play. I gave myself my very first enema in order to clean myself out to make anal play more enjoyable. As the warm water began rushing into my rectum filling and stretching me my love affair with enemas began. Since that first enema anal play and enemas have always gone together. I would never allow anything in my ass unless I had had an enema first. Sometimes enemas are as far as I go, as I love them, however if anything else is going in me I must have an enema first. And I do love having things in my ass.

When I think of kinks, they are almost by definition needing to be out of the mainstream. While lots of people here are into enemas, my wife and me included, the practice is hardly widely accepted. Up until a few years ago when my wife went thru menopause another of our kinks was menstrual sex, which is hardly widely practiced. A kink has to be a niche of its own.

I’ve never had any interest in enemas, but I have a decades long fascination with rectal temperature, ass play, and anal sex, with women only. Kinks are no different than going to a restaurant, and ordering from the menu. Everyone likes different things.

It started out as Enemas for fun, a diaper forum, and I believe a Med fet forum. All were combined into the Zity.biz forum we have before us today. But I could be remembering wrong as it was a few years back.

I have not made any sort of study on this point, the following is simply based on my Zity observations.

A surprising number of enema freaks are over 60. This has to be because enema usage for health purposes was very common in the 1950’s and 1960’s but has almost disappeared since then. Many youngsters who received enemas made the connection of water up the chute and sexual stimulation. Old pros like myself (I’m 71) have cherished this fetish since childhood. Nature has a way of thinning out the enema devotees through time.

Younger folk who don’t seem to be interested in enemas, but are interested in other fetishes simply have no enema background. Maybe they’ll try it and like it in future but there likely will never be the devotion to the wet arts that my generation demonstrates.

At one time, I was heavily involved in the local Indianapolis kink community, meaning I attended events and meet and greet munches. I found the interest in enemas to be virtually nonexistent. If you are interested in enemas, this is the place you want to be. Many of us also have Fet accounts, and there is widespread interest in enemas on that site. However, in the local community, I have never found any interest in enemas through face-to-face interactions. BTW, I am eneman on Fet.

@faultless50 I have found the same to be true. There is virtually no one in my area in the Fet community that indicates an interest. But they may be like me in that I don't have enemas stated in my Fet Fetishes. There are a few locals who I have talked with that are into anal things, and most of them won't engage in any play because they are in various relationships with others. Some of the pro-dommes will, however.

Pros are pros...the go for the buck, no surprise there...yes, I'm on Fet too and go to area munches where, in a vanilla environment, the most you can hope is a mention of spanking or ropes...openly nobody talks about enemas, is still kind of taboo, privately things change...most subs will receive it if their Dom requires it...looks like everyone likes some kind of anal play and hygiene is mandatory..in short everyone do it but still thinks it is not something you talk about unless you are in some kind of scene. I put it in my profile as my main kink (I am "mastertum" in Fet)...I receive lots of messages about people wanting to be filled up...males of course...am in touch with some ladies but they are not local.... I met some...most were subdued, almost like they were ashamed of their kink..all used to solo in secret while I used to practice it with my wife and all my friends and family know it is my go to for stomach ailment...what they do not know is that I need to "phone a friend" when I need help....well, of the people I met, only one offered to reciprocate and we often meet for a beer. Most were uncomfortable doing it and did not reciprocate. A couple did, but only after I asked if they were willing to...so, as you can see, there is still lot of shame associated with it, even if being practiced...The only time/place when it is all out in the open, during E-fests, you can really enjoy camaraderie among enema lovers...and of course in the anonymity of this forum....

I agree mostly because enemas ARE my "thing", but as mentioned about FetLife many users show anal play but when you check their fetish list enemas are not listed. I asked one of them once because almost all of his photos were anal-centric with very deep toys and his response was interesting: "Yes, i give myself several enemas in the shower before I play. But I don't view them as my fetish, rather more like a minor inconvenience to be able to have a very clean play time with long toys. So I'm not really into giving or receiving but do clean myself out". I thought that was a great response, that he does use enemas as a flush but won't list them as a fetish.

I wish there was another way to find others that use enemas but don't list them as a fetish. For now, I use the power of conversation and when I find someone that has at least one thing in common with me I'll strike up some talk and see where it goes. For now, that's the best thing we have. 😃

I have a friend who is into all things anal, except enemas. She tried it once and said never again. At least she tried. I think there are probably many out there into anal that are the same way. Let's face it, enema play forces one to deal with waste, like it or not. That is a barrier for many and I agree with the prior comment indicating that if you didn't grow up with enema use, it is far less likely you will get into it as an adult. Also, enema play can take on many forms from humiliation, forced, pain, etc. not just pleasure. I love the sensual, soothing aspects, but for someone already into anal but not enemas, the person teaching may implement the wrong experience. It is too bad we can't hold demonstration classes and attract crowds. I think there are converts that just don't know it.
