A subject that's been talked about before, but I thought I'd revive it. Do any of you think about why you're attracted to wet/messy? I think about it sometimes--and I can come up with no explanation! For me, it started with wetlook. I would see girls/women get soaked with their clothes on, and I found it strangely arousing. A bit later, I started getting into mud and other substances. The scene in Tommy of Ann Margret wallowing in soap suds, baked beans and chocolate syrup was a real "turning point" for me. I was 13 when that movie came out. So, in sum, I guess it's nothing more than an "irrational" urge that I have.
I think most people's kink genesis occurs around or before when yours did. It's the media we consume. Whether we see people slimed, pied, or tied up, it informs our psyche when we're at our most vulnerable. I wouldn't call it irrational; thats the sort of language used for phobias. But its who we become. Who you are is a result of your life experiences, which informs your desires. You're perfectly normal.
For me I witnessed a public pieing of a young lady when I was about 6 or 7. It did nothing for me at the time, obviously. However, the image of it is still in my mind, razor sharp, some 50 years later. When I saw it I remember having all sorts of confused thoughts, like how will she clean up, how will she get home. It made me worried for her and wonder at what I had seen all at the same time. If that makes sense. I think this was a pivotal moment in my development and adult interests. What followed later on just reinforced those earlier feelings. All the usual messy stuff on kids TV.
Even today I always find myself wondering about how the person getting messy is feeling and the the minutia about cleaning up, the journey home and all the stuff you never get to see. Joining in and get messy myself is just an attempt for me to recapture those feelings and know what it is to be the victim.
Hope that all makes sense. It is hard to put into words.
For me, the fascination/attraction with mud started with it being taboo - I was not encouraged/allowed to get messy as child. I remember seeing others get muddy in PE classes and being mesmerised by how dirt on skin looked, you know, muddy legs after football on a wet pitch, cross country, etc. I can remember feeling jealous, peculiar, hot in the face. It's easy to see it as aroused now, but not back then.
