In the strictest terms,
watersports involves sexual excitement regarding urine. Less
formally, watersports is kinky play that
purposefully involves urine and may not be explicitly sexual.
Watersports, WS, piss play, golden showers, GS, wetsex, recycled
water, urophilia
and urolagnia all mean basically the same thing – some
sort of fetish that involves piss.
During piss play a donor may shower a recipient with urine, someone
may wet themselves, or the recipient could drink piss. They could
wet themselves or have the piss of one or more donors. The recipient
may wear clothes, a diaper, other wrapping, or nothing at all.
Some people like to watch piss play or be watched. There may or
may not be any shift in power.
It can happen privately
in a bathtub, on a tarp on the floor, or alone out in the woods.
It can take place semi-publicly at
a play party, if the host approves. You can even piss on the
recipient in a kiddy swimming pool – without kids present
of course, and then clean up afterward.
After your recipient
wears piss, they can shower it off – alone,
with you, or with friends. Or they can be required to leave
it on themselves until it dries. (Shivering can be quite erotic
in this context.) Some donors enjoy pissing in their panties
or
on
other clothes to dry and wear afterwards.
While some prefer urine on the outside, others prefer having it
in the mouth. There seems to be two distinct fetishes, each with
its own headspace. My recipient likes to be pissed on, but I really
enjoy nudging her into accepting it into her mouth: first on her
body, then nearer her face, pissing in her mouth a little, more
in her mouth and finally to the point where she swallows.
For some, watersports
is strictly a private affair. For others, it involves multiple
partners in a variety of settings – semi-private
at a party, or semi-public with a chance of being caught (although
that raises the possibility that your play may be inflicted on
vanilla or kinky people who don’t consent to watching
the activity).
Piss play can lend itself to long distance relationships and online
relationships. One female recipient was told to lie on her back
in the tub, kick her legs high over her head, and piss on herself.
Another was asked to piss in a cup, pour it onto herself in the
tub, and stand with the piss on her for a few minutes before showering.
Many people include
enemas, catheterization, age play, infantilism or control aspects
of urination under the umbrella word watersports,
but those kinks are beyond the scope of this article. That
being said, pissing on someone puts me into a kinky power position
not unlike pulling hair, slapping someone’s face or shutting
off her air supply. It is about control, humiliation, depersonalization
and objectification.
It’s a way to
connect with your play-partner. They are marked as mine, at least
for the moment.
It’s edge play for some, at least the first time that that
they do piss play and with each step forward. It’s common
and ordinary for others.
There’s a wild, primal, uncivilized aspect to watersports – as
though I’m shutting down the thinking part of the brain
for a moment to revel in the earlier animal part of humanity.
It is
vulgar hedonism, revelry in gross body functions, Dionysian,
and even spiritual.
There are several paths
to spirituality – among them prayer,
meditation and sex. Using words attributed to Jesus in The Gospel
of Thomas, “If you bring forth what is within you,
what you bring forth will save you. If you do not bring forth
what is within
you, what you do not bring forth will destroy you.” The
Gnostic Christians who used texts like this seemed to know
that validating
what you have in you is a good thing. From that perspective
reveling in who and what we are, and do, can be a wondrous
thing.
Pissing on someone is
also ego-driven, puffing me for a moment. One of the rewards
of watersports is that it makes me feel good,
the same as any pursuit. But it’s not the only payoff.
I like the release of a long piss, emptying the bladder is a wondrously
boyish sensation. Having a woman to piss on instead of a toilet
or urinal adds the sounds of piss hitting skin or hair, the intimacy
of the usual nakedness, the sharing of my fluid onto her breasts,
her pussy and into her mouth. Drenching her, baptizing her, a form
of sensual play.
Piss play engages all the senses. The recipient can see the piss,
hear the zipper (sometimes) and then the piss, smell it, feel it
as it hits the skin, while it dries and -- even taste it.
Why would a sadist do this? Because multiple fetishes are good.
In addition to giving pain, controlling our bottoms and doing other
kinky things with them works for us.
As to why piss play
is a turn on – why is any fetish exciting?
This isn’t a fetish in the strictest sense of the term, in
that pissing on people doesn’t sexually arouse me, watersports
isn’t necessary for arousal or gratification, and as good
as it feels, watersports in and of itself isn’t magical.
But it’s a fetish in a BDSM context: one person has more
control and one has less, it arouses the libido, stirs up psychic
energy, and makes energy flow between two people.
Watersports may be exciting
in part because of anatomy. The authors of Different Loving suggest, “because
the urinary tract and the anus lie in intimate conjunction with
the genitals, stimulation
to one region may create some degree of pleasurable sensation
in the other.” (Brame, Brame and Jacobs, Villard, 1993,
p. 488).
Or maybe it’s just another example of guys behaving badly,
manning up, setting up our own approach to man law – but
instead of smoking cigars at strip clubs or drinking while
playing poker, we break cultural taboos by pissing on women.
And pissing on someone
does violate taboos. Many of us don’t
start life with this prohibition. As kids, we’re interested
in piss. By the time we become adults we’ve pretty well
locked down this interest in favor of more socially acceptable
practices
and the taboo is deliciously ready to be transgressed as we
exercise our rights to the pursuit of happiness in a free country.
Then there is the recipient’s
headspace. Watersports is one activity that always puts my recipient
into her place. It
can take the edge off her long ride to spend the weekend with
me (or
my long ride to see her). It can take her out of a bitchy place
into a calm one. It makes her feel more owned than interrupting
her in the kitchen while she chops an onion with a sharp knife.
She even tends to like the smell of it.
Major downsides can
involve health and cultural concerns. We’ve
been taught since childhood that piss is dirty and we’d
better wash our hands after we piss. People feel that watersports
is edge
play because it seems to be unhygienic, yet of all exchanges
of body fluids, watersports is the least risky as the urine
of a healthy
person leaves the bladder nearly sterile. The acidic content,
which gives piss its unique flavor, is hostile to many bacteria
and viruses.
As many know, in the absence of pure water in World War II
battlefields, urine was recommended as a substitute for cleaning
wounds.
There is little chance
of contracting HIV during piss play. The HIV virus is fragile
and breaks down in the acidic liquid. The
Centers for Disease Control has stated that urine doesn’t
contain enough HIV to infect another person. However, watch
out for a partner with an STD or a bacterial infection of the
urethra.
Hepatitis and other STDs may be passed along, although the
risks of that are generally less than blood-to-blood contact
or intercourse.
By not flogging or brushing your teeth for an hour prior to
being pissed on you may reduce risks further.
Medications, other drugs,
alcohol and vitamins may pass into the piss. Acidity can damage
tooth enamel, which can be lessened
when the recipient brushes teeth and tongue with baking soda
afterwards. There may also be secondary effects, such as skin
rashes in individuals
sensitive to urine. Keep eyes closed so piss doesn’t
get into them.
Consuming too much piss
is potentially dangerous due to the salt and mineral content
in urine. It’s not something to do every
day. It’s less risky if done after the donor has watered
down their piss. And it’s helpful to drink a lot of water
after imbibing as well.
Holding your urine for a long time so that you have a fuller bladder
for more volume can cause water retention symptoms. They go away
a few hours after pissing. Making your bottom hold their urine
can cause some to be retained, which increases the possibility
of them developing an infection.
From my perspective,
the only downside of watersports with my recipient is that it
leaves her in a blonde space for the next
day or so, clinging to me, and unable to carry on a decent
conversation or perform decent service. It’s a nice place
for her, though.
What if your partner
isn’t open to doing watersports? Start
by discussing this with them. Like any edge play, it’s not
usually a good idea to rush them into something that they’re
not ready for but would do to make you happy. Back off and do something
you both like and revisit the idea another time. Unless it’s
an inflexible limit, over time, they’ll likely get used
to the idea and be genuinely willing to try.
Help your recipient get used to piss by touching their own urine.
While you piss in the toilet, see if they might place their hand
into the stream. Next step would be to piss on their genitals or
breasts in the bathtub. In later sessions, you can work your way
to other areas of the body.
The last place to piss is in the mouth. Let them spit out the
piss at first. Swallowing follows once the recipient is accustomed
to having it in their mouth. Swallowing occasionally is low risk.
Taste is a different matter.
Drinking lots of water, fruit juice, soda or pop, beer, or sweetened
drinks are said to improve the taste of piss. Ingesting asparagus,
broccoli, cabbage, brussels sprouts, B complex vitamins, or coffee
is said to make it taste worse. Morning piss is said taste the
worst.
Once your recipient
is okay with watersports, spontaneously drag them into the bathroom,
make them take off their clothes, climb
into the tub and piss on them, or plan it out and make more
of a scene around it, adding other elements or fetishes, get
kinkier
or more extreme – depending on what drives you. Adding additional
elements, including the recipient’s anticipation, are
quite helpful to extend a watersports scene because the act
of pissing
itself is so short. Here are a few more ideas for additional
elements from mild to wild.
