Opinions, that's what it is. We all like different things, not everyone can like the same stuff, outside WAM, I don't like beetroot, cucumber, the X factor, Eastenders, Ed Sheeran and so it goes...
I can't stand tattoos, but that's just me, some people like them, each to their own...

The anarchist in me sees the humor in this. But the intellectual in me recognizes the sociopathy in it as well. When the narrative gets out of control, just change the story in your mind, good plan

These days it kinda feels like to get a brand new professionally made video of a pretty woman, wearing a nice summer dress, getting gunged with bright green semi-transparent gunge, while sitting on a chair, I'd have to order a custom.
I feel there's a decently sized segment of this forum whose specific needs were being met 10-15 years ago and aren't being met now. Maybe I've just got more particular about what I enjoy, I don't know.
Am I alone in thinking these sorts of threads are kind of healthy?

I guess whether a custom is waranted or not will depend on how specific the requirement is. Attractive girls in nice summer clothing of various kinds getting messy - I know I've done that and I guess other producers have too, as it's pretty mainstream - though I think in my case our girls have tended to do it more in mud, with playsuits, shors, or minidresses.
Also producers tend to shoot a combination of what works for them personally, and what sells. Which is going to skew things somewhat. Going back 10 or 15 years, would have been the heyday of Gungegirls I think, who released new scenes of girls sitting on chairs getting gunged with actual gunge on a very frequent basis, but I don't think I've seen a promo for them for some time now?
Because the overall scene and marketplace is so small, the comings and goings of individual producers or sponsors can make a big impact in the kind of material that's produced. If I ever give up production, I imagine there will be rather fewer girls getting messy in boilersuits and overalls, for example, likewise the whole shiny sports shorts phenomenon is largely down to one person who provided the shorts to multiple different producers (including us) to use in scenes.
thereald said: Am I alone in thinking these sorts of threads are kind of healthy?
I kind of feel this thread derailed rather badly away from the intent of the original question, which I took to be looking for opinions that were unpopular (or at least uncommon) across the community in general. Not individual preferences like skirts vs trousers or long hair vs short hair, but more genuinely unusual viewpoints. We did get a few in the first few pages, like someone who doesn't regard mud as WAM, that the "I don't know" trigger thing has been over-used to death, someone who didn't think PVC was sexy, my comment about never having really understoof pie-in-the-face on its own as erotic, and the (two I think) people who made the case that pee-play should be regarded as part of wam.
Unfortunately those kind of posts soon got buried under the tide of personal preferences, and then some some truly horrendous views and sweeping statements were made and it turned into a train-wreck.
I do think the thread may have been instructive in that hopefully a few people were made to stop and think about what they were saying by the reaction of female participants, so perhaps not a total loss, and I know MM prefers to let things like this run so people can learn from them rather than locking or deleting at the first hint of trouble.

It depends on what they regularly shoot. If a producer typically shoots outdoors for the sake of it being easier to manage and they might not have the budget for decent lighting but you reach out saying you prefer indoor locations which will probably be more labor intensive, more costly as now they have to find the venue and equipment to shoot such a scene, then YES, you need to pay for that. Time to film, location, models desired, even the amount of mess all play a factor in what the producer needs to pay out of pocket to make the whole thing come together. Rule of thumb is If it is beyond what they typically do for their stock offerings, then yes, expect your request to fall under a custom.

This is my point (and possibly an actual unpopular wam opinion): my preference sounds like it should be mainstream, but when I look at what's actually available to buy, it isn't.

So, is the conclusion that most of the people who contributed to this thread are cheap people who don't buy scenes or customs and are making pathetic attempts to convince producers to make content based on their specific preferences? Most of the replies are about not liking things like: savory, mud, quicksand, nudity, dog food, swimwear in wetlook, etc. Is the conclusion then that the people that made these statements are too cheap to buy a custom, or too cheap to buy scenes that they do enjoy?
I agree that some replies were body-shaming or kink-shaming and those were wrong. Some of the language was very negative.
I don't agree that the people who posted here are only stating their opinion because they are too cheap to pay for a custom.
What about this thread: https://umd.net/forums/the-most-unique-thing-about-wam-that-you . Are the people stating their unique opinions there just trying to convince producers to make thing specific to their unique preferences? Is their a point to that thread? Nobody's going to do anything with the information in that thread. What about the OP of that thread and this one https://umd.net/forums/armpitarm-wam - for liking pied armpits. Should we call them cheap for stating their opinion but not wanting to pay a custom for it?
My questions were rhetorical. I don't think every post of this forum needs to be about buying, selling, or paying for customs. People should be able to express opinions for other reasons. For me, replying here was about making social connections. I made 1 friend as a result of a reply. I don't even know why I am replying with this because I know this was not a serous reply (regarding being cheap). It feels like gatekeeping though and that it is saying only producers or custom customers are entitled to state opinions here. I am sure that was not the intent, but it bugged me enough to want to reply.
Another unpopular opinion: If you really need to fart while messy, just let it out. Some might enjoy it in a humiliation way:
I don't want to pay a custom to force a model to fart.
To me the purpose of this thread is that sharing an unpopular opinion is like letting out a good fart. No one in the room will like it.
The conclusion is that as a model and producer, these threads are a completely different experience and it's degrading. People in this thread are completely trashing how some of us look, how some of us are trying to break into producing content, and the kind of content we're producing. I'm sick of listening to what people don't like about the hard work and fucking money we're spending to make this content. There's nothing beneficial, nothing productive or constructive about this kind of thread. And since you didn't seem to read the earlier comment from the OP, he was trying to cause dissension in this community, he outright admitted this was the purpose of this entire thread. So for you, you're admitting things you like that others may not, but that's not what everyone on this thread has been doing, and it's really hurtful and unfair to others in this community. It is entirely without compassion, and really degrading.
The other thing you need to be educated on is that pirating is an issue in this community. I'm not just making loose accusations, I've had my stuff pirated, and so have most of the producers here. It's so common its almost proverbial. There are Instagram accounts that blatantly do this. They call themselves fan accounts, but they're not just appreciation posts. They post photos of the scenes they bought and tell people to dm them for the video. These accounts used to follow me and when I followed them back, I'm seeing them post my friends and fellow producers content and offering to sell their videos. It happens on Twitter too. You report the account, it gets shut down and then another one pops up immediately. And a few years ago, I was alerted to a certain subreddit forum that I was able to view where there were an alarming number of members from here that had a whole fucking scheme planned on how they are pirating our content so that they don't all have to pay for it. It is also a practice on this subreddit to make these suggestions publicly to create the content they want to see to make producers think this is what is in demand and it's a good way to avoid paying for a custom. This was something that was already exposed in the producers forum, so I don't know if this subreddit still exists.
So this is what I'm addressing in my post, this is what I'm calling out. And because the OP admitted he was just starting shit, I know I was right.

I mean, it might be sarcasm, but unless he specifies, it might actually be literal. I'd prefer he be a little more sensitive to the people who have been offended by this thread rather than flippant. That doesn't feel very compassionate.

A positive effect of it is that it's challenged some assumptions of what WAM fans like, and made people realise they're not alone in not liking something others seem to rave about.
People calling for a maximum of 3-4 pies certainly surprises me. Provided there's some variety in the pies, their delivery and the model's reactions, I think the more the merrier. Then again I have seen some clips where the pies are a bit bland and after the first couple they're not really adding anything.
But yeah, it turned into some dog-whistle digs at certain producers and mean comments about models. If you're getting angry about someone daring to call themself a model just because you don't find them attractive, that's on you, sorry.

Agree with you on that. I guess people realised that they were posting genuinely unpopular opinions when people didn't like those opinions.

These kind of situations are why I am in favor of streaming type services for WAM. But, the cost involved is pretty hefty to make every attempt to protect the stream. There would still be ways to pirate things along the reaction video line. But it is a lot more of a pain that just copying files to a torrent site. Or even a system of DRM where you had to enter a password that is verified on the back end and that the password can be turned off at any time. Yes there are even ways to bypass that. Short of streaming things in a masturbation shop where you rent the video I don't know how to avoid the situation. It is real shitty that producers have to fight this and I don't know how they keep up with it. I remember that a few years ago when there was a massive movie dump around Oscar time it was revealed that the studios had watermarked the videos that were sent out with the name of the person they were sent to and that you had to use special software to see the watermark so they knew who was sending things out. Unfortunately nothing ever came of that either. I know that a some of the major movie theaters stream the movies that they get. That there is a back end server that controls the times the movies are allowed to be shown. If you have ever watched anything from Fandango, that is how it is done and it is controlled with hopper units that are owned by dish that Fandango basically rents.
What happened to all the mud wrestling. There used to be a lot of it on here now it seems theres only one dedicated producer who does mud wrestling content and Club MPV who releases videos shot decades ago. Other than that nothing. Maybe someone sharing a youtube link but other than that nothing.

mongoose said: This site is being overrun by people into watersports and Alpo
Not just this site. Seen quite a few piss, scat and ABDL folks popping up in other WAM spaces.
To be honest that's been a problem since the days of usenet, as "Wet And Messy" can be interpreted a variety of ways. The original wish was for a newsgroup for "sploshing" which would have been more descriptive but various ubergeeks had a problem with that being too close to the name of Splosh! magazine, and there were rules about not naming newsgroups after commercial entities, hence wet-and-messy as a fallback, which gave us WAM as the acronym, and confusion has reigned ever since.
Not seen much mention of watersports here, other than a couple of posts in this thread saying it should be included, which were answered (by me) as "won't happen, billing companies would shut the site down if we allowed it."
If you do encounter what you think might be piss or scat content anywhere on UMD, use the Report links (thumbs-down symbol in some places) to flag it to admin, we'll nuke anything that is (or appears to be) that kind of content, as it's absolutely not allowed here.
CKCP said: I don't like self-wamming. I am a pie fan and a woman pieing herself does not do it for me. Skirt, nice blouse, nice shoes, etc. easily beats a bikini or nudity in my book
OK. Here is the big one. I was going to start a separate post on it but I don't think it would get any traction. WAM has gotten too extreme. Porn and, this applies to WAM, is kinda like a ratchet. It only goes one way-- up. Once folks get inured to something, they crave something a little more over the top. So, back in the day, a pretty girl getting a nice pie in the face was great for us pie fans, but now? With HD cameras, forums like this one, and more models willing to take this work, that is not enough for a lot of us. We need the model nude now. The humiliation is not enough-- can you have the pie be something gross? What if we tied her up? I think she should be masturbating with a huge dildo while getting pied and covered with condiments. You see? The pie in the face (or the slime over the head, or the mud wrestling in bikinis, etc.) is no longer quite enough to get you there, so the ratchet goes up a notch.
NOT ME. I like the simple stuff and I see it getting buried under the more extreme stuff. I am like that audiophile friend of yours who seeks out rare vinyl LPs regardless of the sound quality. This is why I love mainstream WAM, even though it is pretty disappointing a lot of the time. There is an "innocence" quality to it-- i.e., it is not being made for us here on UMD to get our jollies. And look, I can't blame producers. They have to make what sells and, as that ratchet moves up, the race is on to produce something that satisfies raised expectations of humiliation, mess, hardcore porn, etc.
That is why I love vintage and retro WAM. A well dressed 1940s woman getting messed up by a guy, is better to me than some of the recent stuff.
Being told i cant wear a nappy when i wam because its not ab site, plp only likeing there type of clothing or woman, wam is in cloths that fun t shirt, cueasl wear do nothing for me but they do for others. I like school uniform doest mean im into kids its just wat i wore when i sarted wam

That's kinda true for me. Like first Human Garbage Disposal scene was like an amazing novelty. but now Human Garbage Disposal is the baseline for me. pie in the face or basic sliming is like nothing.
