The First time I got exposed to my fetish was when I was a kid. We have a pond in our backyard that dries up in the summer leaving a pit of mud. Me and my sister went back there. we were jumping rock to rock trying not to fall in. I slipped and i sunk up to my waist in mud. I wasn't in shock. I liked the feeling. As I grew through puberty, I came across mud porn. That became my fetish. When my parents would leave, I would go out in shorts and strip down once I got there. I would go sink my body slowly deeper and and deeper. I would dunk my head over and over. THAT is the best feeling. It's something about doing something that is so dirty and taboo, that really turns me on. I loved the feeling of being totally covered head to to in creamy mud. I would go back and submerge myself as much as I could. To this day mud gets me so aroused. I want to go out and sink with other people like me.

My awakening was around the time I was in junior high. I was watching random movies on cable one afternoon and saw the (in)famous paddling and gunge sequence in the 1970s film "Fraternity Row."

I already knew I had an interest in paddling after seeing the paddling scene in "Dead Poets Society" a few months earlier, but that short but very memorable minute or so in "FR" made me realize I also had an interests in gunge/wam (even though I had no idea what it was called), especially when it was combined with paddling.

For me I didn't know or realized what a fetish was. I would walk home from school I'm the rain about 2 miles in thunder and walk in puddles and if I was out long enough their would be mud after the puddles.

I realized as well I felt safe bathing in clothes was safer in a way as well even showering since I had a lot of trauma I was going through but I've only recently realized this.

Also the film Wild America was a huge influence so was the big blue

The rain pours me back to growing up and running around in it outside

When I was a young kid, the pie fights on The Three Stooges gave me wood.

I was eight, at primary school, when we had swimming lessons!
I loved getting my trunks wet!
Fifty years later, I still do!
The better swimmers got to wear their pajamas too!
I remember wishing that I could too!

I'll admit to not being the brightest bulb in the home improvement aisle when growing up - Catholic school will do that to you - so I didn't connect the feel I enjoyed from wet clothes and such with sexual pleasure. And of course, way back when the word "fetish" only existed in late 19th C French and British porn. But I always knew that wet/messy hair especially excited me, even as a youngster. Off to college and the occasional shaving cream fight lead to "hmm, what would it feel like to walk in that mud?" The mudwalks in time grew messier, as long as I could clean up nearby. Soon enough I became aware that mud/mess = sexual pleasure. However, I figured no one else in the universe felt the same way until I came across a zine (for you youngsters, a 'zine' was a small usually photocopied magazine produced in somebody's bedroom) called MUDMASTER. Flipping through the dozen or so pages, I found very short stories, Polaroids taped onto the pages (this was before personal computers were popular), and even a personals page for guys wanting to connect. Then in the early days of the World Wide Web, webpages started to appear devoted to pictures of guys (primarily guys) in the mud, oil, etc.

Let's just say, the rest is history.

I would get boners watching WWYD as a kid, and I thought that it must be the same for everyone else cause there was no other reason to watch that show. It was garbage.

It's hard to really say exactly where the interest in WAM came from. I was never exposed to it or any porn as a kid but this and some other kinks were just kind of there when I hit puberty.

I remember feeling curious about what different things would feel like on my skin and sometimes would spread condiments on my arm to test the waters as a teenager when I had privacy. Not frequently mind you. But the interest has been there ever since.

Body painting is probably something I'm more into, and I do know where I discovered that. I was watching Ripleys Believe it or Not one evening when I was in 7th or 8th grade and there was an episode that featured a woman with her body painted like a mermaid. I think there was a lizard one too, but the mermaid is the one that I recall for sure. Not sure why that was Ripley's worthy, but I wasn't complaining about getting to see boobs

I think what clinched it for me was discovering Splosh magazine in a shop in Soho -- not many of them stocked it, it has to be said, but one had a pretty reasonable supply of this precious title.

But earlier on I had been struck by a scene in, of all things, the Benny Hill Show, where the eponymous comedian was playing the part of a naughty schoolboy who was punished by his (inevitably, lingerie wearing) female teacher by having a jug of iced water poured down the front of his shorts. Hill rolls his eyes, but then reveals that within his shorts he has concealed a plastic funnel and a bottle, thus preserving him from feeling the chilly effect of the water.

Or did I dream that episode?

The first time I knew I had a warm fetish. I was in my late teens and my collage had a charity event on n my girlfriend friend at the time was picked to take part in a gunge dunk tank. She wore a nice white bikini and a ponytail. Ever since that day I've loved seeing women fully wet and messy, even better if they're barefooted!

I think i remember the photo!!! On one of the Yahoo groups i think...

I can't trace it back to a specific moment of realisation. Definitely have images/hazy memories of gunge stuff on telly from being so early in life thst it must be pretty hardwired into me. By tge time I stumbled across Splosh! Magazine article in FHM (nearly fainted in WH Smith) then later an actual copy of the magazine in a newsagents in my home town, it was already a fully formed gunge preoccupation. Then i managed to get online and realised i was far from the only one!

For me (probably like a lot of people) it was from TV shows like GYOB, Terror Towers etc. that first introduced me to it, and I would always watch watch and imagine how good it must be to be part of the end games and get covered in all this gunk!

With mud it's a bit of a stranger story. When I was in Primary School (around 6 or 7 maybe) I got off the bus and was walking home down a really long lane. I saw a small puddle of mud and something just took over me because my hands went straight in and I started feeling around and loved it. To try and "hide" what I did, I wiped my muddy hands on my red school jumper, walked home and made the excuse that we were doing rugby practice for PE that day (don't forget, I was 6 or 7 at the time)

Watching da bungalow and seeing boys my age get messy. And as I grew up,that love of males getting messy I just loved even more.

Like many others I used watch any kids show that had gunge in like GYOB, Live and Kicking etc.

I never really actually wanted to get messy thou until I went school on my birthday and received a birthday egging. Walked home with egg yolk dripping down my face thinking that was fun. Discovered the world of online wam after that

watching bozo and threes company and brady bunch pie fights i was hooked.

At 11 or 12 when messy things happened on TV I was almost in a trance

It was when I left school at 16 I started to understand I had a lust for it

I honestly don't know, because, as a child, I used to be scared of gunge and would always turn over when a messy TV show was on. I still to this day don't know why because at some point it turned from being scared to enjoying it and wanting to try it. Although I didn't ever try it until my early 20s, when I first discovered internet groups about getting pied and realised that I wasn't a weirdo for wanting to get pied. Well, I am a weirdo, but I embrace it now

Seeing girls get slimed on TV when I was a kid was it for me. I guess it was the embarrassing part of it that I liked the most.

Fast forward to the last few years when I found multiple sites online dedicated to exactly what aroused me. I always thought I'd out grow the fetish but with all this new technology I doubt that will happen lol. The quality of the slime and pies are a lot thicker and better now than back then so there's another reason.
