Three Kinds of Reponses to Enemas

Having given the question alot of thought, I think one can divide people into three classes when it comes to enemas.

In the first class, are the true Klismo’s, who are quite comfortable with their preference, and feel no guilt about it. It is just another human behavior. They may not discuss it openly, as society would still look askance, but they are comfortable with it, and are probably most of the people on a site are in this category.

The second group, are what I call the closet Klismo’s - who are less open in their acceptance, or maybe even in denial as to the sexual gratification to be obtained from enemas - from taking to talking, but also understand the sexual arousal, albeit feeling guilty about it. Key point is that they are still in the closet, although they will engineer an enema situation, either giving or getting, whenever possible. Both myself and my spouse, as a couple are probably in this category, although I personally regard myself as a KLismophile, at least on this site. Many of those who advocate enemas for health and “cleanliness” reasons, are possibly in this category.

The remaining group find the subject unpleasant, and the process as well, but acccept it for medical reasons, as they would any other invasive or embarrassing procedure.

I have no idea what the distribution amongst the groups is, other than to say that I suspect that there are more in groups one and two than we suspect, and that enemas are still in frequent use, clinically and otherwise.

Thoughts anyone? It is probably part of my academic mind seeking to categorize as a first step to understanding.

Sounds pretty reasonable. I'm clearly in the first group of avowed klismophiles, but I do limit discussion of it to Zity and occasional partners.

I'm in the third group. But try very hard to not ever need one for any reason.

But I gather your sub is in Group 1, like myself? But he has them all given by you so you both enjoy your end of the D/s interaction (like myself and my Domme ex)?

Based on the OP's categories, I'm firmly in the first group, having graduated from the second group many years ago. While the long term therapeutic benefits of enemas may be debatable, I'm of the mindset that using one's common sense and not abusing yourself, the occasional use and enjoyment of enemas is just one of life's little hidden pleasures. Not everyone is wired in such a way as to find them pleasant, but those of us who are find they are that little extra spice that adds so much to life!

Have fun and play safe!

I have to admit, I am definitely in the first group.

I'm definitely in group 2. However, up through our first year of marriage I was in group 3. The reason I say that I'm group 2 is that I will almost never initiate the topic with my wife, but if she brings it up and pushes the point I'll gladly engage her in some enema play.

I would have to be in group 4 (a). I hate to get them for any reason including medical but there is nothing better than slowly sliding a nozzle in. Man I love it!

Been in each group at one time or another in my life.

Definitely in the first group! Enjoy enemas more for pleasure than most! Enjoy comparing techniques, equipment, and experiences with others!

Mark me down for category 1!

I would say I fall into categories one and two.

I'm in category #1

I fall in categories one and two..

Say 1.5 somewhere between one and two.

Have often wondered how many here find it different at different times.

I know , understand , and enjoy the erotic side, other times I find it just relaxing, and a good way to unwind. How many enjoy the non erotic side also, have always wondered about that.

The groups are not so clear cut, as one's reaction and feeling may be dependent upon who is around or involved. I have had partners who made me feel in both the first and second grouping, and others who would think I'm in the third but never say otherwise. Although I've had public play, Domme/partner play with enema lovers, I really only feel free and enthusiastic with my current partner in my desire and lack of guilt. (And sometimes I act less than enthusiastic, but he knows that part of my kink is being made to take one somewhat reluctantly!).

I guess 2.....or 3.....

I’d say I am somewhere between group 1 and 2.

As several others have said, “somewhere between 1 and 2” is probably the best fit.

Truly insightful. I am clearly in the third group but slipping into the second as time goes by. I think that it may be gradual for most with the exception of the first category.

Oh yeah. I started in 3, good way to get things unclogged, then moved up, but when I'm really backed up the relief is the primary driver and I'm usually not to into the erotic side.

Hmmm... i now belong to group 4 I guess. Used to be group 2 (hated that i loved them), then into group 1, but now, really, use themto get clean, then play. It's more like a prep than a goal. It's been 2+ years since i stared taking themmstanding up, with as little retention as possible, just plain water. For me, being clean inside, lubed up and ready for play is more enticing than the enema... where does this behavior fit?

I started in group there and have moved slowly into a solid group 2 now. Seems to be a acquired desire and something I now look forward to and don't mind discussing.

I'm a #1 for sure. Over the last few weeks being home alone with my husband I think I've elevated my passion for enemas.

All in for # 1. # 2 for sure in my teens and early 20’s. From about 26 on right up till now (60) a solid #1. It all just seems to get better.

I believe i'm moving into a type #1 from the #2 position. What changed was the necessity of needing enemas on a regular basis. Cancer did that to me. Although I've been in remission for 2.5 years now, because of the throat being involved, I was using a stomach feeding tube for several months. I lost all sense of taste due to radiation treatments. To add to the misery, I still have swallowing issues. This put me on liquid nutrition for about 2 years. If you have done anything like this yourself you may have had the same issues. Constipation. I find laxatives repugnant. Bad timing when dosing plus unwanted eruptions in the middle of the night. My closet anal fixation with the bag and bulb "blossomed". Some of my equipment now hangs openly in my bathroom. On occasion, it's a 2 or 4 qt. bag hanging in the shower or a bulb or two with nice nozzles upside down to dry, thank you very much. Some of the more exotic equipment is tucked away and only comes out on special days. I believe I'm no longer a "closet enema freak". MRay

#1, no doubt about it!

Modified 3. Really, there's no need to have the whole "repugnant" thing on there, it's just people who take enemas when needed because of alternate reasons - constipation, medically needed, or to prepare for play.

I would put myself in the first category. I received a lot of enema's growing up in the 50s and 60s. mostly for tummy issues.

As I grew older I began to like them as they felt good putting pressure on my prostate.

All of my partners as I continued into my 20s and 30s got a kick out of giving them to me sometimes in front of friends and relatives to embarrass me. Being some what of an exhibitionist I kind of enjoyed the attention.

Now I meet with an e-mate once a month . With the Covid-19 situation we had to stop or sessions. I can't wait for this situation to be over for obvious reasons.

I spent most of my life in the group 2 category until I discovered Zity 4 years ago. Now I am most definitely Group 1
