Personal Living Habits Among "Our Crowd"

This might make for an interesting discussion among people with our particular "purientation" :-\ .

Does our shared fetish carry over into the conduct of our personal lives? Do we share common attitudes toward, for example, housekeeping, or do we attract like-minded, or opposite-minded people (on ANY subject) as our partners.

I use regluar enemas on a (roughly) weekly basis, always with soap and usually before daily bathing and shaving.. I view my body as, though flawed (like everyone else "my age") an instrument to be maintained and kept clean and healthy. Once in a while, I'll indulge a "clean streak" with a steam bath, colonic, etc.

My housekeeping habits are closer to the opposite pole. I do what's necessary, but only as time permits, and during those times when the demands of work, etc, add addtional pressure, I would probably be characterized as an "Oscar Madison", rather than a "Felix Unger" I do clean things up, however, when the pressures let up.

I was raised in a stable, but somewhat quirky family setting typical to the early 1950's. My father was a dairy farmer and my Mom never again worked outside the home once she married; and to be frank she never made an attempt to "step out from his shadow", but directed her energies toward the very high standards of houscleaning common to women of her time.

So I'd like to hear from other members who might have noted these variations on the "spectrum of behavior" among relatives and partners.

I've found that since my sons have moved on that my priorities have changed from having a 'spotless' house and i have began focusing more on my changing body needs. i know i am nearing menopause and that 'change' as well as with time catching up with me from bad habits i had when i was younger. also i am more and more inclined to not be as concerned with what others think when i make choices as to my life style and health.

what i used to consider strictly a 'fetish' and still do when speaking of sex and enemas, i have come to view my enemas as more of a health habit that i use to keep me in balance. i still very much equate sex and enemas but as i grow older my enemas have taken on a different role. they are something my husband can use to maintain some intimate play and contact when there are 'difficulties' due to his health concerns. kind of like being able to continue an intimate relationship without having to rely on his ability to get it up or the 'little blue pill.' he enjoys giving me enemas and also how i can use them to enhance his performance.

so in answer to your question or comments, my mindset is not so much on what others think, but how i want to live and what works for me. if the house isn't spotless, so what? there are more important things to do, like getting the most out of the time you have left with your significant other or your friends.

As I have mentioned in the past, I am a clean freak, but my love of enemas has no bearing on my neatness or any desire to have a clean colon, except when we are engaging in anal play. The body will work perfectly well without ever having an enema. I have always liked things well organized and clean. Thanks mom!

My house is [almost] spotless. We do have help, but with two teenage girls and all their friends, the house gets good use. My daughters are also neatnicks. Sometimes my husband needs a little "encouragement" but he comes around.

My wife and I are both neat. Now that the kids are grown and gone it is much easier to keep a neat clean house. I am the same way with our vehicles.

What an interesting topic! I view enemas as mainly a prelude to anal sex and always do at least one beforehand. They are also an erotic experience by themselves. When using a pointed tip like the nozzle on a Fleet bottle I like tickling the anal opening with the nozzle tip before entering. There are so many nerve endings there and the sensations are terrific. If using a butt plug type nozzle it's fun to work it in and out for a while before letting the solution flow. Enemas make anal sex so much more enjoyable because an empty bowel eliminates a possible bloated feeling during vigorous anal sex plus it eliminates any unpleasant "residue" from appearing at an inopportune moment.

Our house is well lived in and will never be on a magazine cover but it's comfortable. We've lived in it since 1970 and have done a lot to it. It's always been relatively clean but we are definitely not neat freaks. Disorganization, not a little dust, drives me nuts. We have a place for everything and after 40+ years here we have a lot of stuff, especially my tools. I pride myself on the fact that I can usually find whatever I need if it's where it belongs.

As far as cleanliness is concerned it used to be easier to get on our hands and knees and my wife has had some health issues the last couple years so the house has not been as clean as in the past. I suggested we get cleaning help but she resisted. I asked around the neighborhood for recommendations and without my wife's knowledge I hired a woman used by a friend. I purposely didn't tell my wife until just before the woman was to arrive because I didn't want her running around cleaning the house for the cleaning lady. She wasn't happy about it but she changed her mind after she saw how much different the house looked after it was cleaned. That was in July and now Kathy comes every other Monday. Money well spent and I'm a hero for hiring her. What could be better? 😉

Like Susie I'm a clean freak. I live on my own so when I get home from work my house is as I left it nine hours before. Therefore my home is always "squeeky clean" and my bathroom is in various lady friend's "good loo guide". Why do I do enemas, and colonics? Because I just love the feeling of being totally clean inside. I have a bidet so that I'm always clean between the legs what ever I've been up to.

Thanks Susie
