So I've noticced online and in my personal experiences people open to WAM / sploshing share some common traits. This is not a mathmatical formula! Of course there are exceptions and this ain't one size fits all, but I think for single folks looking for partners if everyone shares our collective experience from our personal observations, it may be helpful to identify a partner (or couple) who may be receptive to the fetish.

For male traits I notice lovers of music, motorcycles, photgraphers, and adventurous / daredevil / adrenaline types may be more inclined to splosh.

Female traits include girls with tatts. Very common for online models and girls in real life with body art to try sploshing. Also, I don't know how to describe it - but the stereotypical Catholic school girl upbringing seems to lend itself to a gal willing / wanting to WAM.

This is just the tip of the iceberg. Feel free to post your observations. If we can build a collective list of traits shared by a lot of people who enjoy WAM, we can get a psychological profile and use it to engage in activities where we are likely to find potential sploshers! Does this make sense? Is it too ambitious? It all stars with brainstorming - so please share what you've noticed sploshers share in common. We can compile the most common traits and use it identify mates - that rhymes.

While your theory is interesting, it is purely speculative, and is based on a very limited amount of anecdotal evidence.

You'd need to do a serious scientific study, with controls, and use many, many verifiable subjects to make this anything more than a pipe dream.

Yea, I'll get right on that. I'll stand on the streetcorner in front of my lab and buy TV ads soliciting for people from all wallks of life to participate in a written test and then put them in a messy situation and record the results.

Now that we're done talking about pipe dreams, this may be speculative, but it's all there is - unless you're providing the lab and Igor.

This is free, can be compiled in a matter of days or weeks, and can give real insight into the segment of the population more inclined to splosh.

Disclaimer - this has not been lab tested, no double blind studies were conducted, it is not FDA approved, it does not have a money back guarantee, use at your own risk. -Better?

Female wammers tend to be girls in their 20s who answer Craigslist ads.

All right. You're not taking this seriously!

LOL

I've mentioned this a few times here before, but it's a story that bears repeating.

As a freshman in college (seven years ago...scary how the time goes by!) I took Intro to Psychology, and as a part of the sexuality unit we (anyone who would agree to it) (which was basically the whole class) would take a survey asking questions along the lines of "Do you consider it normal to incorporate [such and such activity or fetish] as a part of sex?"

The question that asked about "whipping cream or other foods" was answered as "normal" by a sizeable majority of the class--at least two-thirds, if I recall correctly. Also, girls were more likely to consider it normal than guys were. Sure, it may not be the Gallup Poll or anything, but it was 300 students across all majors, so not a bad sample.

While WAM doesn't titillate most people as much as it does us, it's really not seen as abnormal as some people around here assume it to be.

My experience over the last 20 years:

Meet someone somewhere, get to know them, form a relationship based on that you both like each other and get on - unless you're unlucky enough to get a "personal neat freak" or someone who's a prima-donna about their appearance, most people will be more than willing to give WAM a go, *especially* if you make it fun for them to do. The point is that it isn't the basis of the relationship, just something that's part of you that you tell them about, just like they tell you how much they want to do whatever their thing is. Might mean you end up trading favours - they agree to get gunged with you, and in return you agree to play BDSM games with them - or it might not be a fetish thing at all, if they like live music, they'll happily get messy with you in exchange for going to loads of gigs, that kind of thing.

I used to think that only "outdorsey" girls would be willing to WAM, the kind of people who wouldn't be seen dead in skirts and who spend every weekend down potholes or hill walking, horse-riding, fell-running, or similar. But in fact I've found over the years people from all walks of life who are happy to feature on camera, or willing to do personal WAM stuff together, including folk who at first appearance look to be the epitome of "my appearance is untouchable".

It works the same way for relationships - you build one on getting to know someone, fetish play is an extra on top. Generally, if you do have a strong fetish, it's good to mention it quite early on in getting to know someone, but never make it sound like that's the only reason you're talking to them - and never let it *be* the only reason you're talking to them.

I'm in strong agreement with what DungeonMasterOne said.

I encourage single wammers to think like this:
If a foot fetishist who loves to massage his partner's feet wants to find a girl willing to let him do that, how does he find such a girl?
Well, the stats probably go something like this:
If you walk up to random girls and ask if they'd like you to massage their feet, you'll probably get a positive response close to 0% of the time.
If you target only girls wearing sandals, it's still close to 0%.
If you target only girls who have already taken their shoes off in public for some reason, close to 0%.
If you approach just girls with ankle or toe jewelry, close to 0%.
If you approach athletic types, close to 0%.
If you ask only girls who play a musical instrument and love unicorns, close to 0%.

However, if a girl (ANY girl) has already enjoyed an evening with you and is now back at your place alone with you, chances of her accepting a foot massage are now pretty close to 100%.
I think anyone can see this is true. It just seems like common sense, right?

Well, just apply the same logic to getting messy with a girl. Sometimes we get so hung up on our desires and/or our insecurities surrounding our messy fetishes that we forget the way relationships generally work.

...I recommend randomly pieing or sliming strangers on the street (or at a work place) and then asking them if they enjoyed the experience.........oh wait, no...that's been done already....

Three factors play a key role:

context, context, and context

...that said, I think there's one group of professionals who have (potentially) a good "window" into IDing wammers: grocery store managers and/or security personnel....who routinely watch hours and hours of in-store video footage...I'm sure there's more than a few who have noticed the same people spending a little too much time in the bakery section, trying to make up their minds...or, who buy similar messy ingredients (like multiple tubs of pudding) every week or month....

Ha! You guys say that like it's the EASY part!

Yellow armbands.

Wait, that's a different group...

Pye_Jihad injects some reason and sense into this thread!
