I think there might be a parrel between allowing yourself to be covered in something considered dirty, and, say, allowing yourself to be tied up. Both, in my eyes, are submissive in nature but when have I ever been right about anything!

So, in a polarised world where there aren't any spectrums and you have to be one or the other, from a WAM fetish aspect, do you like to be dishing the dirt (dominant/top) or prefer to be receiving the dirt (submissive/bottom)?

This an absolute no brainer for me, submissive all the way. I can be dominant but would be envious of the person I was covering.

Submissive for sure. While I have no issue dishing it out and is usually expected in meetup its a dream to be tied or restrained and just trashed.

It's much closer than I was expecting (s5:d4), it's exciting but early days yet!

Hmm. Neither due to the terminology.

I like getting messy/having someone mess me up...but that doesn't make me a sub, it makes me a bottom.
I also like it if the woman also gets messy, but it's not necessary. BUT if I am with a woman who likes to get messy/wants me to mess her up, then I would like her to get me messy too as while it's fun to gunge someone, it's not as arousing (so not a Dom but happy to Top...)

Overall I would be a happy bottom, very happy switch, bored Top if no reciprocation.

That opened a world I hadn't seen before! In my context and poll, I do probably mean Top giver or Bottom receiver, so I've edited my original post.

I like giving more than receiving, but I can receive as long as I can give at least as much. I consider myself a nice dom though. I like to take an artistic approach to gunging rather than acting mean.

Domme. Prefer to get others messy. I enjoy watching others having fun and giving those the pleasure that they want. Of course, by my guiding hand.

I'm loving the fact that there's more doms/tops than I expected!

Sexually in general I think I'm most closely aligned with a "switch". I can and sometimes want to be dominant and leading in the encounter, mess or no.

But other times, I just want to be held and taken care of. I'd say it's the same with WAM. I like to get messy, I love the sensations. But the visual aspect I need that to be with a woman. Seeing myself messy does nothing for me.

That's really interesting. I wasn't allowed to get dirty as a child, so I am excited by how I look covered in mud (I tend to look better than in real life!) as it confirms I'm being naughty, non-conformist, dirty, so it that lights my fire as well as the assault on the rest of my senses.

I love seeing women get dirty too, as it's somehow less expected than men due to historical societal pressures, but I only like it if they are enjoying themselves and want to be doing it. I get turned off if I think its being done for money instead of pleasure, and upset if I think they're being forced to do something they're really uncomfortable with and do not like.

Don't get me wrong, both pleasure and being paid is absolutely fine. It's the fact that it turns them on is the bit that's really attractive to me.

I'm definitely a switch in this and will play either role with glee. Outside of WAM I'm probably more submissive but would love to learn the dominant role.

I'm a bratty switch but I get real submissive once someone makes a nice mess of me. Like yes, please push my face in the slop pile

I would've chosen both ! Guess it depends on who I'm with, and the mood I'm in.....

Yeah, I think a lot would, or at least take turns, but I wanted to see if you had to choose which people would pick.

I'd say I'm also a switch, though I lean a little more towards a used up slapstick stooge, I love a good tit for tat pie fight or getting some revenge after my humiliation.

Submissive, but I've also done some tit-for-tat pie sessions. I prefer my pie partner stay clean while he gives it to me. I get very turned on looking into a mans face as he destroys my face with pie, or anything messy.

So the poll is closed.

The results kind of support my original theory that there's more wammers that like to receive than give - if forced at gun-pointy to choose one or the other. There's 1 dish-outer for every 4 grateful recipients. I guess that's why lots of folk do both, and I'm guessing that might also help by knowing what you like from a receiving prospective.

So if you want to be totally destroyed by someone, be prepared to return the favour.

I am normally a sub but when it comes to Wam i am a switch
