this was on instagram a few days back.... I was walking around town when I saw it and had to have a sit....
SHAWING!!!!
I'm glad they're expanding their fetishes to more than just piss leather and pits....... all great things but that gave a newbie an impression that those are all we have in the fetish world..... while......
Haha, thanks Al. I know 1982j so I am sure he will take my comment as intended - in jest!
I think Recon is just dipping their toe in the water with this fetish, but true, I would have expected something a bit more professional. However, hats off to those who took part, in bringing our community more into the mainstream...
...or would we prefer to remain underground and a bit unique/risqu
I'm yet to see the full video, but it's a conscious departure from their usual format and explicit raunch wasn't the tone they were aiming for. They've shown it internally and everyone's really pleased though, so hopefully the finished product will be worth the wait!
And I suppose if it's not then we can always film a sequel

Also, sidenote: why can't a bookcase be erotic? Personally I am more down with the idea with getting wild and kinky in a bookshop or library than a fetish club or dungeon or sex hut or whatever. Maybe this is disclosing too much information.
Also, PSA: Recon is at least partly a user-defined community, so the best way by far of making WAM more visible on it is to join and spread the love. Most of the people I've talked to on there are very open minded which...well, figures, really.
Also, for those of us who lack 20/20 social skills: trying to succinctly explain why your particular fetish appeals to somebody who hasn't tried it yet is...a great substitute for actually engaging in conversation, no?
Wow - this looks awesome! I was too excited watching all that gunge pour down over the shaving cream to notice the background - ha! I'll have to look into this.
This is quite the breakthrough. It's really well made and edited, and the three guys come over very well. I give it 3 years max before something similar turns up on Channel 4 or Viceland...
That is quite something. Loved seeing the guy in those pvc trousers. have to wonder how they managed to avoid getting erections playing around like that

I loved this part too. While I enjoyed seeing the other guys having fun - ahem - mucking about, as a gunge fan I liked seeing the producer's face of nervous anticipation before getting gunked.
Also, as a video that's basically "An Introduction to WAM", it's nice to see it presented here as something more fun and playful. I was expecting it to be more sexual/sleazy, but, interestingly, this video has made me realise how innocent a fetish it is. Odd how after all these years I'm realising that. And this in turn has really made me wonder why we're made to feel like weirdos even by people who are into a bit more extreme fetishes, like fisting or something (I've certainly received the raised eyebrow "that's weird" look from a hardcore kink enthusiast).
I feel like I need to do a thesis on gunge theory now...

Absolutely. To us it's super-sexual, but to anyone else, it's bizarrely innocent - not only is it far less extreme than standard kink like bondage/BDSM etc (and fisting, as you point out), it's also far less sexual than... well, sex. All it takes to get my rocks off is a vid of a cute bloke getting gunged - most guys need porn to come.
"the producer's face of nervous anticipation" - yeah, that was brilliant. I love it when a guy is up for it in that cute shy/reluctant way.
Very appreciative of this getting more mainstream. Its always hard to explain this to non-WAMers, so something from a site like Recon really helps raise awareness!
Though I did choose it as an interest, I did find myself second-guessing "outing" myself as a gunger moreso than, say, as a Suit. But good for Recon: in doing this, they will ultimately decrease stigma around WAM.
The sexy producer who got gunged at the end of the last video is writing an article for the site about his experience as well which should go up this week.
