Enemas on Prime Time TV & in the movies?

I remember that scene. Fun to watch even thought I'm a straight male and don't really enjoy watching other men get enemas. As much s I enjoyed the scene, what I couldn't figure out is why they were giving the Astronauts enemas at all. Was it some quirk of 1960's medicine, a general stress test to see how long a big, tough astronaut could hold an enema, or some other reason like they were going to give them colonoscopies?

Actually they still do it or something like it to this day. They want every nook and cranny documented in case being in space has some detrimental effect on it. They already know that muscle tone and other things are affected by space travel and they have to work it all out before traveling any long distance. One option is spinning the capsule at 1 G as seen in the movie "The Martian"

Just in movie references, I hope. I thought in real life you really liked getting your enemas.

Oh I do like them, I think they are my greatest form of pleasure actually. It's just that enemas always seem to come up when I least expect them to, usually when I'm with people, and it just makes me really embarrassed and I just want to disappear. It has been that way my whole life.

Watch the full version of The Right Stuff as they select astronauts for nasa. Two candidates are racing down hospital corridors with balloon nozzles, tubing, and bags attached to them.

And wasn't one of them in an elevator wearing a hospital gown and had tube coming out of his ass? There was a nurse holding the bag? I watched that with my parents and siblings in our living room when I was younger ? That's another one of those movies that I avoid at all costs lol.

In The Right Stuff, the astronauts get barium enemas. I recall one of the stars laying on an X-Ray table that is tilted back up flat and the star looks very uncomfortable. A black orderly escorts 2 of these guys filled up to the toilet up on another floor. While on the elevator one of the guys asks the orderly if they ever have explosions and he answers, "Oh yes, all the time."

I'm sure this was for comic effect; I can't imagine any radiology dept. not having toilets right near the exam rooms. This was long before the days when colonoscopies were available and BaE's were the only way to visualize the large bowel. My first wife while in nursing school in the early 60's told me BaE's were done quite frequently, with enemas til clear a nightly chore for student nurses.

I think the first colonoscopies were done in the early 70's, with preps just like those for BaE's

I bet you're like me, a little embarrassed on the outside with a hearty grin on the inside knowing how much pleasure you get from them, without anyone else knowing about it. Your little secret.

There was a House episode where Dr. House decided he would personally administer an enema to a rather good looking patient.

The embarrassment goes all the way through me. It makes me feel like everyone knows everything about me and my enema thing, which is crazy and not how it is but that’s just how I feel.

You could probably get over that embarrassment if you carried an enema bag around everywhere you went for a week. Just have the end tucked in your pants.

That sounds terrifying, even if I didn't know anyone that I would see.

I once attended a Holloween party where an RN served wine from an enema bag. What fun!

Two relatively recent mentions of enemas in TV and movies:

--The Netflix series "Mindhunters" had a mention of enemas in the final moments of Season 1 Episode 3 when an FBI employee was reading a list of possible deviant behaviors that could lead to sexual crimes. On the list was "Klismophilia", to which Jonathan Groff's character Holden inquires "Klisma-what?" The woman reading the list responds "Enemas--either giving or having."

--In the film "The Vanishing of Sidney Hall", Nathan Lane's character Harold tells Logan Lerman's title character "Divorce is like having an enema, its as invasive as hell but in the morning you feel like a new man."

While I was watching Judge Judy this afternoon, an enema commercial came on ?? It had two guys on a golf course talking about constipation and they even showed the enema. FML ⚰️

You mean one of them carried an enema onto the course, @Allie80? That would really be kinky. "Would you mind?" LOL!

I also saw a different enema commercial, with those same golfers and other constipated people, singing about their relief with enemas. It made it even better that I was over at my mom’s house watching tv with her and my sister ?⚰️

I am not a fan of the enema tv commercials.

LOVE your reaction, @Allie80! Sounds like you would be a lot of fun to watch TV with...??

BTW, I have NEVER seen an enema commercial on network TV, & in years gone by, I would have been just as embarrassed, thinking about my own weirdness...

Let's put it this way, no agency I have ever worked for had an laxative/enema account. There's no question I would have likely given myself away as an enema lover had I been tasked with writing copy for enema ad!

I can hear it now... "Wow, Deb, you really outdid yourself in describing the effectiveness of the client's product!" 😁

I usually stay away from medical tv shows because the enema subject always comes up at some point. I never thought that there would be an issue watching a show about a zoo, but of course they ended up giving the tiger an enema. I immediately wanted to leave the room, but that would probably look really obvious and suspicious. So I have to sit there, die, and watch the entire thing. I seriously feel like I am going to die every time I hear this word, especially when I am around other people. I am never prepared to hear that word "in public" because it feels so embarrassing to me ?

I get you @Allie80! Hearing and pronouncing the word enema is always embarrassing for me, in particular if there are many people present, like when you are in the pharmacy and you hear someone asking for it. Non to mention of when I'm with my parents...I hate when a component of my family talks about it, I feel very embarassed and I always try to change the subject or leave!

In the opening scene of the movie "The End", Burt Reynolds is being given an enema. While you don't see the scene, you do hear the dialog which is quite funny. Burt Reynold is being a real wuss and the nurse is very patronizing. I would love to see an enema video with a mucho male receiving an enema from a patronizing with a similar verbal exchange.

I heard Cathy Lee Gifford make more than one reference to enemas when she was doing the talk show with Regis Philbin. One time she said that someone needed an industrial-strength enema. Another time Regis said, "I haven't had an enema in years." I'm not sure what it was in to. Kathy retorted, "You don't know what you are missing." Then she added, "All you got to do is grin and bear it." I'm sure she meant bear to be spelled B A R E.

There is an ENEMA scene in Midnight Cowboy. It starts with his grandma spanking young Joe Buck's bare bottom when he was about 9 or 10. In the very next scene, she has a full 2-quart bag hanging on the metal rail of the bed as she holds, feeds the hose through her fingers about ready to insert the nozzle.

I remember when I first saw it, I was stunned! And turned on. You can find it on Youtube....Midnight Cowboy...the full movie, near the end. It's a flashback scene.

Even the word enema used to instantly get me excited but being at zity off and on for over a decade has desensitized me to the word. The Fleet glycerin commercials are promoted as liquid suppositories and the word enema is never mentioned, probably because of the connotations that the word can bring up. I've sat through shows where the word is mentioned and I sit there and act like nothing is happening. To do anything else would give me away I think.

The movie "8 Millimeter" with Nicholas Cage has a scene where an erotic Enema nurse is holding a full 4-quart bag and Klystra nozzle as she stands next to her submissive.

Have you or anyone else here seen this movie all the way through? The premise above sounds appealing to someone who enjoys D/s enema scenes, but a look at the fairly detailed plot on Wikipedia says it revolves around an 8 mm film of a girl being murdered during or after a BDSM scene. Any idea how violent or grisly this really is? It's available on Amazon Prime Video.

I love grisly and violent movies and stories. Tame stories my husband and I can perform ourselves. I like the stories that are extreme.

I have to look into "8 Millimeter" with Nicholas Cage.

It will go right along with my Hostel and SAW movies and others like American Mary.

How did I guess you'd like it when I wrote that post!? Bingo! ?

Give me blood and gore, and stories I CANNOT duplicate at home in real life..

Wow, Susie, I was expecting more S&M, not just a butt chug scene. Admirable restraint.

Susie,

Spoiler Alert!!!

I saw it yesterday. Honest professional private investigator Cage is hired by a rich heiress whose late husband contracted to buy a "snuff" flick in which an innocent abducted teenage girl is brutally murdered on camera. Cage tracks it down and finds it's not smoke and mirrors but a real murder filmed by a director specializing in making violent S&M films and the occasional real murder for enough money. He sees the film a few times showing him be extremely disgusted by the violence especially when he realizes it's real. You do see a number of scenes or stills from the film showing the bloody victim and the hooded murderer attacking her with a knife. All the bad guys are eventually killed by Cage, all violent and fairly bloody. Very dark film (mood as well as lighting) as Cage searches and finds more and more depraved and violent pornographers. The actual enema scene was quite fleeting and not remotely erotic. Nor was the rest of it, just dark and violent. I'm glad I at least saw it but nothing I'd watch again. I'm just guessing that you might find it slightly interesting but maybe too tame. Let me know your impressions if you ever see it.
