How common was it to use the douche nozzle for enemas?

Anyone else ever had an enema with a soap coated nozzle?

@Jaime

The Rexall Victoria was one of the half dozen most common (best selling) enema bags of the 1950s:

Any kid that saw that familiar box come out of the linen closet (the usual storage location) KNEW that someone was going to be doing a LOT of pooing… very soon!

Also, many home nursing texts instruct the enema giver to insert the nozzle, pointing toward the recipient's belly button.

The Victorias, like many enema bags of that era, were well made and are still fully functional today. It's one of my favorites, filled with warm water and a swish of Ivory bar soap. It has never failed to produce results, promptly. LoL.

Seems the linen closet was a favorite storage place for that familiar box. Maybe because of it's size, it fit well there…

@reddevil

The linen closet seems like the logical place for enema equipment. Consider:

The linen closet is usually mid-way between the bedroom and bathroom… the usual places for giving enemas…. and the bag i was often filled at the bathroom sink (or tub spout).

Also, many bathrooms in the 1950s era did not have closets, but had either under the sink storage (OK for enema or douche bulbs, but not bags in boxes) or a small metal wall cabinet.

Actually, mostly I've seen bags stored on the top shelf of linen closets, under some linen, with only the end showing. This indicates to me the bag was not used that often and it was somewhat hidden from prying eyes (and maybe kids ‘exploring’)

Where ever the bag was stored, whenever it came out, someone was going to poo very soon.

Mom always used the straight enema pipe on me. When I started sneaking them on my own, around 12-13, I used the douche pipe exclusively. The shape with its curve, reverse taper, holes and ridges somehow seemed naughty and wicked. I knew from the instructions in the kit box that a douche was for woman, and I remember wondering at first why it shaped differently. It took a while to dawn on me that girls put it “in front”. A big revelation. I was only then beginning to understand the special feelings I got inserting and withdrawing it, which I almost never felt from the regular enema pipe. I guess the douche pipe was a major factor in my sexual awakening. i always made sure I cleaned and dried the kit components thoroughly and replaced the box under the sink carefully afterward; I dreaded getting caught. Good Catholic boys weren’t supposed to be putting things in their bottoms that made them excited.

I have never thought about it. But now I am. At our house, there were two bags. One for douching and one for enemas. Both used the douche nozzle. I never even knew they came or most came with a short nozzle for enemas until I was out of the house. I remember being in a drugstore and seeing a new box that I guess someone had been reading the back because it was lying facedown. It showed what was included and that is when I saw the short enema nozzle for the first time. Then I saw a few more boxes that showed the enema nozzle. But all I have ever seen was the douche nozzle attached. I think the reason is because they are easier to keep in and easier for a person to use alone. When I got the only childhood enema the douche nozzle was on it.

At our house the bag hung in the shower at all times and had the douche nozzle attached. You knew when it was being used because the smell of Massengill permeated the whole house. When enema time came around for an unlucky recipient, it was always the enema nozzle. When I give now, I will use a bigger nozzle so it stays put. Let's me focus on other things!

Hi Pecan Nutjob!!

I am new and don’t know how to directly reply t you so the answer is directly underneath the question. Hope that you see this reply.

The only reason that I recall some these details is that through out my life I recalled certain occasions in my youth that I have use for emptying myself on the front end, and I don’t mean urinating! Time however can make us enhance these memories to suit our fantasy built around that reality (of the occasion).

Grandma had a different enema bag than us and Mother said that it was the same bag or type of bag Grandma used on her. The nozzle was curved with some type of a larger like bulbous end. It seems to me that it was the same length as the douche nozzle in the Victoria kit. Now I think that larger or bulb feature was for enema retention, I doubt the design woul make a douche more effective. Grandma’s enemas were more difficult to hold in spite of the nozzle. Though these were or seemed they were very slow, I later found out that Grandma put in some amount-I assume small—of vinegar and different soap than Mother. When I was a teenager and home alone, I would get dressed up and lubricate the nozzle of Mother’s large douche bulb nozzle and insert it as far as I could.

take care

@Jaime

The nozzle you describe was certainly a douche nozzle, called a “bulbous spray” and came with some of the older, higher end, syringes, like the Davol Petal:

I don't think any of the Rexall syringes came with a bulb spray douche nozzle.

The nozzle was designed to spay forward in a cone-shaped pattern. Actually, it is not a good nozzle for enemas because the water comes out from a circular slot that can easily clog if pushed into a lump of poo. While the bulb on the end does aid retention that's not its intended purpose

Sean, I agree that the “bulbous” nozzle was usually only included in the higher end syringes. Rexall did include this in the older Kantleek Combination Syringe. I have bought and sold several over the years. I have kept one that is in primo condition and love that nozzle. You are correct in that they tend to clog easier. Fortunately, the end is a threaded insert and easy to clean.

One suggestion is to use a quickie bulb enema to clear a big lump of poo before settling down to a wonderful large volume enema with that nozzle that seems to hit just the right spot!

@sse4fun

Oops. My bad, You're correct:

https://ibb.co/K0gzvJd

My Mom 1st used a bulb, then bag on me. Both with straight rectal pipes / nozzles. After that and finding out that I liked enemas, I started “ snooping ”. In the back of the bathroom drawer, I found the “ black curved Bakelite douche nozzle". The idea of sticking this up my bottom got me excited. When my folks went out, I ran into the bathroom to do an enema with this nozzle up my bottom. It was big and not like a straight nozzle, but the feeling when I opened the clamp ????

Now I like these or DBB for a good cleanout.

I was very excited to eventually get my hands on one of these nozzles. You are right, they are not a good enema nozzle, and for that matter, I don't think they are all the great for douching. Much better are the curved black nozzles with numerous holes along the fluted sides.

We were given enemas often growing up and I remember the first time a douche nozzle was used on me was when we were at grandmas the night before Easter when my parents were going out to dinner. Grandma gave us all a bath and an enema using the douche nozzle. I was aghast when I saw the bag and what I was about to get and told grandma that’s too big. She said I promise it will be fine and you will like it. When she laid me down and started massaging my butt hole with Vaseline it felt wonderful and when she slid the douche in I thought this is fantastic! Later when mom and dad picked us up we were all in our pajamas and grandma said they have had their baths and all been on the bag with a good enema. Later on when is was time for my next enema at home I asked mom if she would use the nozzle grandma used and she said sure and used the douche nozzle on us from then on.

@Mr_Dirt Was she your mother's mother?

Even though I had numerous enemas as a child with bulb and bag, I was in my 20’s before I had an enema with the douche nozzle. I learned from the Sears catalog that most bags were sold with small straight nozzles for enemas and larger vaginal nozzles for the ladies. It never occurred to me to use the vaginal nozzle for my enema. Until one day when my employer sent me out of town for some training and I bought myself a new Faultless Folding Syringe, with the yellow latex bag, and discovered that it only came with the douche nozzle. Yes, I used it and liked it. I did not have to constantly hold it in like the straight enema nozzle. And that led to some of my “bigger is better “ experimenting with other enema nozzles.

When I found my mother's enema kit at age 13, it had the standard small rectal nozzle and the douche nozzle. I was instantly attracted to using it because I thought both the small nozzle and the douche nozzle were for anal enemas- one was smaller, and one was larger. At that age, I really did not know much about douching. So when I had the house alone and was so horny to try this enema out, I went straight for the douche nozzle. I can't remember all the details of my first enema experience but I am sure I did masturbate with the douche nozzle in my ass while taking multiple enemas.

I never received enemas from my mother so it was totally on my own that I discovered the anal erotic sensations of enemas and sex. For me the douche nozzle was bigger and so it would naturally be more erotic. Now at age 13 I had no idea what anal erotic meant or that I was very anal erotic. But I had this innate sense that I wanted that larger nozzle in my ass.

Now being the sneaky 13 year old, I was very careful to dry the enema bag and clean everything so I did not leave any trace of my new found fetish. I did not want to be caught. Fast forward many years later when I moved out of my parents' home and got a place of my own. I bought my first enema kit with the enema nozzle and the douche nozzle. I of course used only the douche nozzle because it produced the most erotic sensations. As the years rolled by and getting married my collection of enema equipment has grown significantly. Yes my wife knows I give myself enemas but does not participate. I have a collection of colon tubes, retention nozzles and a 1 gallon silicon bag in addition to a whole host of anal toys and dildos.

So what started out as a horny 13 year old experimenting with his mother's enema kit, has blossomed into a full blown hopeless anal erotic individual. So if you got to experience the douche nozzle as a child, I would imagine you ended up to in the same place I did- loving enemas and still doing them on a regular basis with no end in sight.

Yeah, that douche nozzle was sooooooooooo hot!

I only remember receiving enemas from mom with a small white bulb and later when she used a bag was the small enema pipe and when I started playing with the bag later on, she always kept it in the linen closet it always had the enema pipe attached, I would always grab the douche nozzle when I was home alone after school and masturbate with it in my ass. I know mom did frequently gave herself enemas but I never found the douche nozzle attached to the bag

I was very constipated. I was about 12 . We went to a wedding the night before, I ate at the cocktail hour , I ate at the dinner, I ate at the desert table. I ate till I couldn't eat anymore. The next day I was constipated like a rock. Mom sense something was wrong. She asked me.and I told her I was having difficulty going.

So we know where this is going. Mom set up the enema and called me to my room. She inserted the enema nozzel and commented that it felt like I had rocks inside . I could feel it pushing the waste inside of me .She opened the clamp , asked me if I felt it. No I said, she raised the bag higher, still nothing she put the bag down shut the clamp and pulled the nozzel out. The nozzel was clogged. Mom went into the bathroom cleaned the nozzel and came back. She repeated the processes, same thing the nozzel was clogged.

Mom called my Aunt on the phone they talked for a few minutes. By now the soap and water in the bag cooled off. Mom refilled the bag with warm soap and water . I was laying face down so I didn't see. Mom said this might feel a little different, I'm going to used the nozzel with the holes on the side so it won't clog when it goes in. I didn't realize she was talking about the douche nozzel. She put it in gently so I really didn't feel anything out of the ordinary. But when It was finished and I got up to ran th the bathroom, I saw the long black nozzel attached to the hose.

Mom said this might feel a little different, I'm going to used the nozzel (sic) with the holes on the side so it won't clog when it goes in.

Wow! You were lucky!

opened the clamp , asked me if I felt it. No I said, she raised the bag higher,

Reminds of when my father was giving me my first bag enema and asked this; and being defiant I said I didn't (even though I could) and so he raised the bag up high - and then I sure did feel it!

My wife enjoyed when I used the douche nozzle when giving her an Enema, and so did I.

@VermouthEnemaKatie To me, I would imagine it was uncommon, because this was also a time when douching was more common and one wouldn't want to get the douche nozzle dirty if someone in the house regularly used it.

Agree, yet despite this it seems like many actually did use the douche tip for enemas… one thing for this might be that women would keep the douche nozzle from old bags they no longer had.

@reddevil

You comment “one thing for this might be that women would keep the douche nozzle from old bags they no longer had.” is right on. I've looked at many, many preowned bags on line and perhaps 1 in 10 as extra nozzles, or nozzles not original to the bag.

When I started doing enemas back in the early sixties, I was very young. The enema kit my folks had was the old porcelain can with a hose attachment. I never really used that. I found mom’s douche kit and was immediately drawn to the larger douche nozzle. So I just used the douche kit. It was more exciting because of the size. I didn’t know anything about douches and the larger nozzle was just more desirable. Later on, I also used the one eyelet hose with the can, but that larger nozzle with the douche kit was always the one that got me excited and my preferred injection device.

Does anyone know where these vintage nozzles could be purchased?

@cnmtman

The modern douche nozzles are essentially the same as those sold for most all of the last hundred years. The only difference is the material from which they are made (Nylon or another plastic v. hard rubber) hence white v. black. And, your rectum can't distinguish colors.

Yes, some of the old nozzles had a curve, but put the modern nozzle into boiling water for a few minutes and you can bend it to taste.

As to where you can buy them look for pre-owned syringes on internet auction sites, at yard and estate sales and flea markets.

Another thought - when I was young in late 1940's, we did not get many toys - only just one or two a year; so we made do with pots, pans and things we found around the house. What better thing to play with then was the ever-present enema bag hanging from shower head in the bathroom. Ours usually had a now classic black curved fluted douche nozzle attached - perfect to play with; filling the bag and watching water spray out. Being too young to know about feminine hygiene, I believed the large nozzle was for adult enemas. The temptation to try it up my butt was too much to resist; and the rest is history.

Back in the good old days most home enemas were given with the douche nozzle because they are far more easier and safer to insert and back in the the 60's every single bag i have seen hanging in bathrooms all had the douche nozzle for enemas and so many times i have seen a wet bag hanging with the douche nozzle still wet with a little poop on it before a Mom gave it a cleaning

i have seen a wet bag hanging with the douche nozzle still wet with a little poop on it

I mentioned I liked playing with the bag and douche nozzle - that was till I saw just what you mentioned. It really grossed me out and I stopped playing with bag/nozzle from that point on - till I reached puberty and then I began sticking the nozzle up my butt… Knowing how fastidious my mom was I cannot think why the nozzle would have ever been left like that.

The douche nozzle was the only nozzle I ever remember being used on me. It always stayed in place without Mom having to hold it in.
