The Enema Primer

Chapter 1, The Enema Primer

Why might anyone want to undergo such an embarrassing and potentially uncomfortable thing as an enema?

The number one reason is to cleanse the lower digestive tract so that it can better do its proper work and to keep your intestines from becoming analogous to a toxic-waste dump. If you have not undergone a cleansing in some time, there can be several pounds of old, hardened fecal material perpetually stuck to the colon walls, a source of putrefaction and poisoning to the system. I know of people who have seen corn kernels come from their colons months after the last time they had eaten any corn. Enema myth number 1 is that nature didn't design the human excretory system with a means for injecting water, and that, therefore, cleansing the colon is unnecessary and harmful. Nature didn't provide us with brushes on the tips of our fingers either, but only a dodo would argue that this proves that humans ought never to brush their teeth. We live in a day of processed foods, chemical additives, starches and fatty meats. Unlike our ancestors, we get little in roughage from fruits, whole grains and raw vegetables. In this environment, colon cleansing is only common sense.

A second benefit of enemas is that, done correctly, they can provide unique sexual stimulation. We will deal with the how and why of this phenomenon later. For now, suffice it to state that this is a fact. In addition to being a possible main course, en enema can be the appetizer before an entree of anal intercourse. The fear of being dirty inside is listed even more often than a fear of pain as the major obstacle to a woman's receptivity to their man's anal advances. Many anally erotic women have discovered that the enema, taken in preparation to giving themselves to their man, becomes a stimulating part of the ritual of anal sex. It not only cleans them and puts their minds at ease, it relaxes their muscles and puts them in the mood.

Women do not own a monopoly on the ability to derive erotic pleasure from an enema. Men, too, find them a distinct turn-on. For the couple that mutually discover this source of sexual stimulation, the experience can provide a bond of common ground in which the woman can share with her man some of the inner feelings she experiences when penetrated and filled with him.

That is not to say that taking an enema is in the same league with jerking off, slipping a vibrator over your trigger, or having intercourse with your honey. The pleasures of an enema are more subtle, and they are tinged with pain, embarrassment, possibly humiliation. You have to be somewhat of a philosophical, contemplative type to appreciate the subtle interplay between all the seemingly contradictory things that happen during an enema session. And it generally takes more than one try to really learn the ins and outs of the game. It also takes more than one enema to equal a really good session, or an effective cleaning, for that matter. I would say that enemas are an acquired taste, but that might strike some as an extremely poor choice of metaphors.

So, given that colon cleansing can by beneficial to your health and an exciting plus to your love life, how should you do it. The good news is that the process is actually quite simple. The even better news is that, done properly, you might just discover a subtle tinge of pleasure in the operation. A doctor, in a book on health care, wrote that enemas ought never be given to adults because many find them erotically stimulating. Am I missing something? Where is the problem here? It's fortunate for him that his mother didn't avoid all activities that can be erotically stimulating. If she had, he most certainly wouldn't exist!

Here's what to do to explore this thrilling health initiative.

Go to the drugstore and check for enema/douche syringes in the feminine hygiene section. There are several practical options, and some others to avoid. You can opt for the combination water bottle/syringe or the classical open mouth variety. The open mouth is a bit easier to fill and use, but it only serves the one purpose as a syringe. The combination style is more complicated to fill, but it is dual purpose and it also is safer to use in bed since, if it falls from its hanger, it won't spill. The choice is yours. I have one of each because I do like to occasionally use one in bed.

Steer clear of the travel style that folds into a small carrying pouch. They are made from very thin rubber, and do not last long. When they fail, it is usually due to the hanger eyelet tearing loose from the bag. Murphy's law # 13. This NEVER happens at a desirable time or place. They are OK for their intended use, but not regular service. Also avoid the squeeze-bulb douche syringe. It's messy to use and holds so little fluid that a good enema requires multiple fillings and insertions. The Shy douche syringe is an interesting variant, but difficult to use and impossibly leaky when taken outside a bathtub.

If possible, get a kit that has barb fittings instead of the screw in type. The screw in fittings are often poorly made and must be sealed with a medical grade of RTV sealant to prevent leakage. Before purchasing, inspect the quality of the fittings. Are the outlet holes in the douche nozzle (the 6" long one with four flutes on the business end) cleanly drilled and free from burrs or sharp edges? Walgreens tends to carry lousy quality bags. Skip them. . Oh, and you might want to take a few Valium before you launch into the informed consumer act. I n a crowded store, opening enema syringes and inspecting the holes in the douche nozzle can draw stares.

While you're in the drug store, pick up either some petroleum jelly lubricant or some pure vitamin E oil. Water based lubricants such as KY Jelly may be used, but tend to leach away in the water you're injecting. By the end of the process, if the lubricant has washed away, withdrawing the nozzle may be needlessly uncomfortable.

With equipment in hand you are ready to proceed. You need to select the nozzle you'll use. The instructions recommend the short one for enemas, but the douche pipe is the favorite of every enemaniac I know. Assemble the syringe with the selected nozzle as shown in the instructions. Be sure to slide the shut-off clamp onto the hose before fitting the hose to the nozzle and bag. Best is to position the shut-off clamp a few inches from the nozzle with the end you press facing toward the nozzle.

For a solution, use cool to warm water, just a bit above body temperature. Temperature can be varied to produce specific results. Warmer solutions relax the colon muscles, making retention easier, but sometimes rendering expulsion a bit of a challenge. Cool enemas stimulate the peristaltic motion of the bowel muscles, and tend to produce more cramping. Therefore, warm enemas are best for treating nervous conditions, and cool ones are in order to cleanse the colon of old, hardened wastes. Cool enemas are also useful in reducing fevers. Do not use water that is hot. Your inner parts, with their meager supply of nerve endings, will not sense the heat. You can easily fill yourself with water hot enough to put you at risk of heat prostration. Sometimes masochists use cold enemas of ice water to induce heavy cramping. You should exercise common sense in this area as well. Excessive use of ice-water enemas can dangerously depress the core temperature of your body, sending you into shock. Play hard, if you will, but do play safe.

Some people add a tablespoon of baking soda and a teaspoon of salt per quart. The soda and salt bring the enema solution close to your own electrolyte level, so that osmosis through the intestinal membranes is minimized. If you find that you feel a bit light- headed after the process due to a rapid change in blood electrolyte balance, then the salt and soda are in order. I find that plain water works fine for me.

A mild soap such as ivory or pure castille may be added to boost the cleaning power of the enema. The soap offers a double whammy, since it irritates the colon walls and causes a strong urge to purge.

Some theorists have questioned the efficacy of soap, pointing out that there is no research proving that it aids the cleansing action of an enema. With all the science behind the use of surfactants, I don't think an experiment is needed to establish their effectiveness in cleaning. Surfactant is a five dollar word for the the main ingredient in the detergents that we use in our dishwashers, shampoos, laundries, car washes and the list goes on. It is the surfactant (From: surface active agent, a material that breaks down the surface tension of water) in soap that lets it clean greasy hands that plain water won't touch. Water, the closest thing we have to a universal solvent, does the actual cleaning. The wetting agent just breaks the surface tension of the water so it can penetrate to clean. Thus, surfactants are particularly effective on greasy or waxy deposits where plain water would tend to bead up.

Some folks experiment with all sorts of exotic solutions. Curiosity is certainly part of human nature. Remember, though, that curiosity killed the cat, and that, unlike felines, you don't have nine lives. Of particular concern is the use of alcoholic beverages as enemas. The colon is extremely efficient at extracting alcohol from its contents, and transferring it to the blood stream. Your bowels will hold enough alcohol to kill you many times over. If you want to kill yourself, be kind to the poor souls who will have to clean up after you and do it some other way. To be safe, you should divide the amount of alcohol you would feel safe drinking in half, and use no more than that rectally. Mineral oil or olive oil is also occasionally used. This is not a good idea, since these oils can deplete the body's supply of certain oil-based vitamins. Herbal enemas can be of benefit in treating disease, tonifying the body, or making the entire experience more pleasant. See the separate chapter on herbs for a more complete discussion.

Whatever the solution, two quarts is sufficient to fill the colon of most people. To cleanse the entire intestinal tract, multiple four quart fillings and a good deal of iron-clad willpower are required. The four quart procedure, called the high enema, is done till most of the water returns clear. It is virtually impossible to get so clean that the last little bit is clear, so don't be misguided by books that ask for that. While you are still at the sink, place the bag on a towel rack, hold the nozzle over the sink, and briefly open the clamp to expel all air bubbles from the hose. If some air remains, it won't hurt you, but it does make retention more difficult, and it can also generate some shameful sounds during your expulsion. After the bag is filled and primed, grease the nozzle liberally with the lubricant of your choice.

Some people find it difficult to accept and retain a large enema. Volume is useful both for the cleansing and erogenous benefits of the enema, so it is worthwhile to figure out how to hold your own with the real enema pros. One trick is to take a 16 ounce glass of water with a tablespoon of Epsom salts dissolved in it. This should be taken about two hours before going to bed. For the next hour, drink as much water as you can. Stop the treatment 1 hour before retiring, and get a good 8 hours of restful sleep. This treatment will purge your system of all that might stand in the way of the water. The rest is essential, though. The treatment may not work if done during the day of the enema series.

At the very least, if you plan to do a high-enema series, take a 2 quart enema of tepid water first to clear all the large fecal waste from the colon. This will take some of the edge off the four quart behemoths.

Now you need to decide the position you'd like to use. Various medicos pontificate about this and that position, but there appears to be virtually no research to support any of the verbiage, so I'd let comfort and pleasure be my guide. You can lie on a bed with a towel under you to catch leaks. If you're a big-time leaker, you'll want to put a rubber sheet under the towel.

If you choose to lie down, there is a bit of information about anatomy that is worth the knowing. Your descending colon proceeds upward from your anus along the left side of your abdominal cavity to a point just below your rib cage. From there, it makes a sharp bend and runs across the top of your stomach to your right side, around the spot where the appendix is located. This section is called the transverse colon. It then bends again and drops down your right side to a point near the groin. From there, it connects with the long, thin tube called the small intestine.

Now, knowing this, you can select a reclining position that will ease the filling of each third of the colon. Start out lying on your left side. Massage upward along the left side of your abdomen from groin to ribcage to help the water fill this first third of the colon. When that part feels full, roll over on your back to allow the transverse colon to fill. Extend your massage from the beginning of the descending and along the full length of the transverse colon. Finally, when the transverse section is full, roll onto your right side to let the ascending section get the maximum water pressure. Simultaneously, you can extend your massage to follow the full route of the colon, starting at the entry end and pushing the water ever deeper into the bowels. Believe it or not, with a little practice, you can feel each section as it fills.

You can stand in the shower if the reclining position doesn't suit you. I find I can hold more standing than in any other position. Lots of female enema fans I know love to get up on the bed on their knees with their face down on the sheets. They enjoy the submissiveness of this pose and the powerful visual effect it has on their significant other. Experiment a bit and see what tickles your fancy. If you have to do this anyway, you might as well derive the maximum of erotic enjoyment from it.

Most books recommend the bag be placed about 2 feet above the hips. This does provide sufficient force to get 2 quarts into you. The bag will need to be hung a bit higher for a four quart high- enema. Enema myth number 2. Some books warn of excessive pressure, but the truth is that your anal sphincter will generally not hold more than you can safely take. However, learn your limits. A high enema should hurt so good. You will feel incredibly full. Your belly will bulge out as if you're three months pregnant. But the process should never really, seriously hurt. If it feels like you're going to burst, stop and expel before you do.

Once you are in your selected position with the bag hung securely at a correct distance above you, lubricate yourself well, ease the nozzle a few inches into your rectum and open the clamp. If you begin to feel too full or cramping sets in, briefly shut the flow off until the feeling subsides. Then you may restart the flow.

Another piece of anatomy news that's important to male enjoyment of enemas. Just inside the body, positioned between the rectum and the urethra, lies the prostate gland. It is responsible for generating most of the fluid contained in male ejaculate. It is a sensitive little gland. Stimulation of it alone can trigger an orgasm. This is why so many enema loving men prefer the douche nozzle and hang the bag 3 feet or more above the hips. The spray from the side outlets figures strongly in male enema appreciation. By twisting the douche nozzle and positioning it just right, it is possible to direct the spray from two sets of the outlet holes directly against the prostate, and this feels wonderful!

Both males and females will find that the muscles around the anal ring are tightly linked to the muscles of the pubic floor. That is the muscle that spasms so delightfully during an orgasm. Stimulation back there, provided it is not brutal and painful, will echo in the frontal zone with truly spine tingling results.

After you are filled you should try to retain the water for as long as possible. At least five minutes, and preferably fifteen, will give the water time to soften and remove hardened fecal matter clinging to the walls of and clogging the folds in the colon. Most folks who find the process erotically stimulating notice that playing with themselves a little helps keep their mind off any cramping that occurs while they fill up and as they wait for the water to do its work. Try to just climb the mountain of delight, but not go over the lover's leap into the oblivion below. The release of the sexual tension often hastens the release of the pressure building in your belly, and cuts short the water's cleansing work. Why spoil a good thing? Save all the tension till the last filling.

If and when you do plan to hit that final crescendo, be aware that that muscle that spasms when you orgasm also controls your anal sphincter. As it does its dance of delight, it will probably release little bursts of the pressing flood in your innards. Consequently, unless you are hankering to do an impression of a Super Soaker 2000, you want to be aware of your position relative to the plumbing as the time draws nigh.

When you must release the water, sit on the toilet and let it run out. Do the same full-colon massage you did while taking the water in, but reverse the direction now, working from your right groin up the ascending colon, from right to left along the transverse colon, then down the descending colon from ribs to groin on your left abdomen. Use a firm stroke of the heel of your palm and force the water back out of your system. If you selected vitamin E oil as a lubricant, dab some on the tummy to make this process more pleasant. This massage helps clear the water quickly and is useful in loosening caked on and hardened wastes. You may not be able to expel the last little bit of water, sit and strain as you may. A sure fire way to resolve this is to clean yourself and get up. The more encumbered you become with activities that would make a return to the toilet inconvenient, the better this strategy seems to work.

Most of the folks who have discovered the pleasure of this practice stumbled upon it in the course of medical procedures given by professional health-care persons, parents or self inflicted. So, if this has a health benefit and is sexually arousing, a natural question to ask is, "How often can I safely do it." Again, the medical literature is thin and what little there is simple opinion and prejudice, about as helpful as the justifications for bleeding patients of centuries past. Enema myth number 3. Beware of them, they're addictive. The truth from my own experience is that enemas can be somewhat addictive. After a daily dose for a number of days, the colon takes a few days to recover normal function. During this recovery, you can get pretty bloated and uncomfortable. However, I have spent several years taking them daily and been able to easily end the cycle with a couple of small ones to get me through the withdrawal. The biggest problem with needing one every day is that there will be days when travel or time commitments make an enema bloody inconvenient at best. Expulsion is noisy and smelly. Unless yours is very different from mine, you might not feel comfortable taking an enema while staying over at your mother-in-law's house. If you are staying for a week and can't go without the bag, the resultant constipation can put a cramp in more than just your style.

Another curiosity that arises after you discover the pleasure of enemas is the linkage between pain and pleasure. Some enema enthusiasts, myself included, find that very large, painful and rather humiliating enemas are the ultimate enema turn-on. So, if you discover that cramps hurt so good, how can you produce them? Here is a suggestion from another enemaholic.

jmelson@artsci.wustl.edu (Jonathan M. Elson) I think some of your questions have already been answered, but I will try, too. Maybe you can't experience *real* cramps with less than a quart. So, you'll have to get a "good cleaning out" first, and then try to get a little more fluid in. I might recommend a warm, soapy enema first. Make it warmer than body temperature, about 104 F (39 - 40 C), since the water cools off in the bag and tube before flowing into you. The warmth helps relax the bowels so you can accept a little more water. Take it slowly, lying on your back, with the bag no more than 1 or 2 feet above you. When you feel the pressure build, clamp the hose and massage your tummy where you feel the pressure, until you feel that area relax. Then take a little more water. As for the soap, use either Ivory bar soap or castille soap sparingly for your first irrigation. With ivory, just hold the bar in the stream of water filling the bag. The slower the water flows over the soap, the stronger the mixture. For castille soap, there is liquid and bar. Kirk's hardwater castille (bar) soap dissolves very fast, so don't hold it in the water for the full time the bag fills. Liquid castille soap is very strong, so just use a little bit. The castille is a little more irritating to (at least my ) bowel.

Now, after you get cleaned out is when the fun can begin! With a clean bowel, you can get a lot more fluid in, and if cramps are what you want, you can most certainly get bigger cramps with a bigger colon! I would recommend a warm enema with strong castille soap for a good cramp. And, as long as the soap is not too strong, I don't think you need to worry about harm. After all, castille soap enemas have been given in hospitals for at least 100 years.

Of course, if you want *real* cramps, you can mix air and water. This WILL give you cramps - I mean real excruciating pain! I don't know if this is what you are looking for, but I know that on the few occasions when I had some problem with my equipment and injected air into my colon with an enema, it really hurt. If you want to try this, you might take an enema, and then have your "mistress" take the hose apart at the bag end, and blow into it. You'll hear the air bubbles rumble into you, and pretty soon you will feel real cramps. I warn you, however, that expelling an air/water enema is much more difficult than any water enema you have had. You may have to lay in the tub on your back to get it to come out, and you may have to work on it for an hour or more to get the air and water out and the cramps to subside.

If you're using enemas for preparation for anal intercourse, I'd recommend giving your partner several. Start with one to two quarts, then build up to the point comfort defines. Give several, till the returns are mostly clean till the very end. This way, there won't be any sludge in the way. Enemas are a subtle erotic stimulation, and it often takes several before you really begin to feel the sexiness. They're nothing at all like beating off or fucking, which are anything but subtle. One caution. A series of large enemas can be physically as well as rectally draining. You might want to match your partner 1 for 1. Do each other, with lots of playful stroking, kissing, licking and so on throughout. That way, nobody feels used and abused, and you each have a clear indication of how worn out you're getting. Enjoy.

 

Chapter 2, Enema fun and health equipment

About equipment, all that I have right now is garden variety stuff like the drug store sells. I do prefer the douche nozzle to the regular little 3 inch job. The only accommodations to my kink in my current equipment are two simple modifications for ease of play.

First, I ditch the toy S hook of flimsy plastic. I substitute a sturdy coat hanger. Preferably one of the expensive variety that have plastic bodies for suit coats and a heavy metal hook, capable of swiveling right the way around, at the top. The swivel hook will slip easily through the hanger hole at the top of the bag. Being able to swivel, it can be turned to latch onto different kinds of ledges and protrusions where you may, from time to time, wish to hand the syringe.

Second, I take the standard bag, put the enema tip on the end of the hose supplied therewith, then purchase another hose and set of tips. (You can get hose sets in most large drug stores.) I slip the second hose right onto the business end of the enema tip connected to the syringe. It fits perfectly and forms a nice, water-tight seal. I put the shut-off clamp and douche nozzle on the end of the second length of hose. This gives me a lot more freedom of movement (with 10 feet of hose instead of 5) and allows hanging the bag really high for a strong rush of water. I don't recommend the hang-ten enema on the first sitting, but it works great for me after I'm relatively clean inside.

In the past, I had a 7 inch plastic nozzle with a bulbous head. It was terrific. I had a colon tube, but didn't like it all that much. I like the feeling of the water rushing in. There are too few nerve endings way up inside where the colon tube goes. Thus, you can't get the sensation of the rushing water or the stimulation directly to the prostate.

I had an inflatable double balloon retention catheter too. I did like to use it occasionally for a retention enema, or a session involving a partner and extended bed rest. :-)

In a fit of self-loathing and internal weakness, I threw all those goodies away years ago. :-(

As to what you would like or dislike, I can't say. You are uniquely you. However, you do give a clue when you say you enjoy dildo play. If that's the case, you'd probably enjoy the larger nozzles too.

Re the colon tube, lots of folks swear by them. For some, they are the tip of choice. They do look _real_ sexy as you bury them deeper and deeper in your lover's rear. And they do make it easier to take a large volume enema without cramping. I like the pressure and cramping. I like the feeling of the water spraying on my prostate. It's an individual thing.

Re: "Inflatable double balloon retention catheter" To get one or not. Tough call. I'm thinking of getting one with a double balloon now because I've become interested in herbal enemas for health and pleasure. Herbals are most effective when retained for an extended time, and the balloon definitely helps. On the other hand, they are somewhat clumsy to insert and definitely on the messy side to remove unless you were already squeaky clean inside. If you don't have at least a moderate tolerance of scatological scenes, you might be better off to save the considerable investment.

Then there is the 4 quart bag. I'd love to have the pure latex one in natural amber color. They look so threatening, inviting, sexy. But $125.00 for an enema bag. I think not. I have a combination syringe for the 4 quart scenes. It is a standard hot-water bottle/syringe that the drug stores sell. The kind with a choice of screw in caps for the fill hole. One cap is just a plug and the other has a fitting to attach the hose. I've equipped it with the double-length hose I mentioned above. To fill it, I unscrew the cap/hose assembly, hold it under the tap, and fill to 2 quart capacity. Then I attach the cap/hose. Hold the bag up to expel the air from the hose. Now clamp off the hose. Dunk the nozzle in a gallon container full of water. Open the clamp, then put the bag on the floor and hold the water jug up. So long as the nozzle opening stays below the water surface in the jug, it will siphon water into the bag till it stretches it to its limit. To get more water, you have only to lift the gallon jug higher. I let it run till the jug is half emptied and another 2 quarts have bulged the syringe to a wicked looking bloated thing. The added advantage here is the swelling of the bag makes me tremble with anticipation. I know that what is happening to that lifeless piece of rubber will soon be reversed. It will empty its overloaded contents into me, and I will be getting engorged as it deflates itself. Also, the pressure developed by the stretching of the rubber membrane forces the water back out with a real rush at first, and you can feel it up inside you, spurting against your sensitive areas. By the time you get too full to take this rapid flow, the bag has gone back to its normal shape and the flow moderates. Works great.

 

Chapter 3, People suffer if their sewer is blocked

 

A Discussion of Colonic Cleansing

IMPORTANT: Read Cautionary Note At End Of This Chapter!

Our bodies were designed for a diet rich in fiber from fresh fruits and vegetables. Instead, most of us eat lots of meats, fats, starches, processed and refined foods. Often, the vegetables we do consume are overcooked treated with unnatural additives, and seasoned with fatty meats. To compound the stress to our alimentary tract, we live in an age where the air we breathe and water we drink contain toxic pollutants. Even our foods are potential sources of poisons. Crops are sprayed with pesticides and animals are treated with hormones to hasten growth and fattening. When the first wave of pollution hits the digestive tract, our internal organs secrete a coating of mucous to protect themselves. If the bowels were allowed days or weeks to recover, this coating would soon wash away. In our world, however, this is seldom the case. The very next meal brings another wave of filth. The result of this multifaceted assault on our digestive system is that, over time, mucoid fecal-matter builds up in hardened layers within our small and large intestines. These deposits act much like the plaque that characterizes hardening of the arteries. Hardened fecal deposits limit the peristaltic function of the intestines. As the layer of hardened waste thickens, it increasingly blocks the proper flow of nutrients from the small, and to a lesser degree, the large intestine. With time, the entrapped wastes begin to petrify, creating an ideal environment for parasitic infestations and dumping a steady stream of toxins into the lymphatic and blood systems. Because of the potential for spreading of the poisons emanating from fecal buildup, symptoms may show up in the lower gastro-intestinal tract, or at remote locations throughout the body.

Colonics are targeted at removing the sludge before the intestines, the body's sewer, become wholly inoperative. Colon cleansing is said to improve overall health, beef up the immune system, and rid the body of a the dangerous buildup of toxins described above. Often, naturopathic practitioners couple a series of colonics with fasting, dietary modifications, and herbal treatments to loosen and flush toxins from all parts of the body.

Granted there are many in the medical establishment who pooh-pooh the whole idea of colon cleansing. The rectum, they say, was intended for the exit of material, not the introduction of foreign objects or water. If nature had meant for us to flush out our colons, they reason, we would have the anatomical means of doing this within our bodies. Of course, if you buy into that argument, then you had best give up brushing your teeth and taking showers, because we weren't built with utilities for these elements of hygiene either! Maybe the buildup of years of decaying fecal matter in one's colon is not a problem.

Perhaps none of the poisons in our environment and food are harmful. It could be that a dramatic increase in cancer related deaths was just scheduled to take place in the 20th century, and that it has nothing to do with toxic pollution in our air, water and food. The medical establishment annually reaps hundreds of billions of dollars by dispensing treatments available only from doctors. That same medical establishment insists that surgery and drugs are the only valid treatments. They see no place for any alternative therapies having revenue streams falling outside the medical establishment's control. The doctors might be speaking only out of concern for your health, and with not one whit of interest in money. All this is possible, but is it really likely? Why take chances?

Given today's improper eating habits, given the abundance of chemical pollutants we face, colonic cleansing seems not only rational but necessary to good health. As final anecdotal evidence of the rationale behind colonic cleansing, let me tell you that, even if you have not eaten corn for weeks or months, you will probably see some corn kernels in the sludge leaving your body through the clear plastic exit hose of the colonic machine. The implications of this are obvious. With our diets and lifestyles, stuff we eat stays in our system far longer than it should. It doesn't take a MD degree to realize that 2 month old food is not something you want inside your body!

Just how does a colonic work? It involves the flushing of the colon with multiple fillings of water. There are various systems used to accomplish this. The most common is a pump that delivers water under mild pressure through a hose tipped with a large nozzle having an inner-diameter opening only slightly smaller than its outer diameter. The nozzle is inserted into the rectum of the subject. The machine delivers water through the nozzle until a certain back pressure is reached. When back pressure indicates that the colon is full, the process reverses and water is allowed to flow out through the nozzle where it is diverted into the discharge hose. As the subject becomes empty, the diverter valve again shifts, and the filling process is repeated.

This alternative filling and emptying is generally done for about 45 minutes. In the course of a treatment, up to 12 gallons or more of water may be cycled through the colon, and a great deal of encrusted fecal matter may be removed, particularly from a subject who has neglected colon hygiene for years. Over a course of treatments, several pounds of such hardened waste are flushed from the average person.

The treatments are usually given with the patient lying on their back on a padded massage table. Some practitioners, in order to improve the penetration and internal flow of the water, may use other positions, or vary the position during the treatment. The therapist may combine abdominal massage with the treatment in order to better dislodge old and hardened wastes. Dress codes vary just as they do in clinical massage. Some practitioners will cover the subject with a towel or cloth, some use a hospital gown, and some prefer the body to be unclothed. Just as with massage, this is a matter for the therapist and subject to discuss, and they should strive to agree on an approach that leaves them both feeling comfortable. The best relaxation and results will come when the environment and the approach "feels right" to both.

Many of the members of our E-SIG joined because of their interest in the erotic aspect of enemas. Some of our men and women have expressed concern about visiting a colonic therapist for fear that their excitement might show to the embarrassment of both practitioner and patient. This is usually a misplaced fear. You should understand that virtually all the colonic therapists in the United States run legitimate health-oriented businesses. If one comes to them as a client seeking help with hygiene, then shows by their action that they are really interested in hiring a prostitute, not a health practitioner, sure there will be problems. Even a therapist who secretly enjoys the procedure themselves is not likely to risk their licensee and livelihood for the sake of one kinky client. If you call a clinic on the phone and ask for special treatments involving sexual activities, they will most certainly place your name on the loony list. If, on the other hand, you enter on honest terms, but find yourself being stimulated by the feeling of fullness and the rush of water over your sensitive, intimate parts, you are not likely to surprise an experienced therapist.

In the initial client-therapist interview, the practitioner may ask you what led you to explore colonic cleansing. You should feel free to openly discuss your use of enemas to achieve a clean feeling and to relieve constipation. You may even say that you have found them pleasurable, and wanted to see how the colonic procedure felt. You should be able to communicate at such a level of intimacy. The healing process requires a rapport and trust that are impossible where the patient is constantly hiding their identity and nervous about a possible slip that would reveal too much of themselves.

What's the bottom line? Use your head. The one on your shoulders, not the little one. Treat the therapist with respect and honesty, not expecting to get more than a good feeling treatment that makes you healthier. You'll find the rewards well worth whatever sexual sublimation this requires of you.

IMPORTANT CAUTIONARY NOTE!

Because hoses and nozzles come into contact with human wastes, it is essential that they be sterilized with measures sufficient to destroy the viability of any virus, or that sterile disposables be used. With the rise of AIDS and hepatitis, many of the clinics have turned to the use of disposable equipment. Whatever the strategy, sterility of equipment is of the utmost importance and should be discussed with the therapist before beginning treatment.

Remember that, since a virus is not really a living organism, but a tiny piece of DNA that can program our living cells to self distruct, viruses cannot be "killed" in the sense that bacteria are. In order to render it harmless, a virus must be chemically altered to the point that it can no longer interfere with the genetic coding of a living cell. Thus, sterilization plans that might seem quite effective for "killing germs" may be useless in dealing with a virus like HIV. Conversely, materials that might not kill germs may render a particular virus innocuous. There is no substitute for informed people when it comes to staying healthy!

 

Chapter 4, Self cleansing witht colon tube

Proper diet and fasting are very important parts of a cleanse. I will not discuss these issues in detail here, but refer you to several texts, listed in the next chapter. This bibliography will give you good guidance in the dietary aspects of detoxification.

In most places, you don't need a prescription to purchase a colon tube. You can buy them over the counter in many states. Just call one of the local medical supplies, ask for a 32 French (that is the diameter rating, and 32 is the standard size) or anything thereabouts. If no medical supply is nearby, many good pharmacies either stock colon tubes or can order them. They probably won't ask why you want one, but you could have a story prepared in case they do, or you could just answer honestly that you don't think that's any of their business. I'd answer much the same if a K-Mart clerk asked me what I intended to do with a purchase of toilet paper!

Use the procedure outlined in the chapter on the techniques for the enema. Use an ordinary 2 quart enema bag from the pharmacy. Put the enema tip (the small, smooth-bore one) on the hose and slide the colon catheter snugly onto it. Be sure to lubricate yourself real well. Also lube the tip of the colon tube. Some folks lube the whole length of the tube, but this makes it pretty difficult to push in. Instead, put a big gob of petroleum jelly on your hole, and let that lube the tube as it passes through.

Let the air out of the tube, then clamp the flow, insert the tube a couple of inches, and start the flow. For this procedure, you will probably want the bag hung relatively low so that the flow is gentle. As the water begins to flow, gently work the catheter deeper and deeper into yourself. You should never push hard to advance it. You don't have a rich supply of nerve endings on the inside, and you don't want to use any force that might cause injury to the intestinal tissues. Instead, use a twisting motion on the hose, and gently move it back and forth when it comes to an obstruction. After just a little water is in, you may want to stop the flow for a while. The purpose of the colon tube is to introduce water near the beginning of the colon, where it can better do its deep cleaning. A little water helps soften fecal obstructions and allows the hose to penetrate more easily. Too much water and you will feel the almost uncontrollable urge to purge before the tube gets to its destination.

The tough points to maneuver past are at the bend between the descending and transverse colon and the bend from the transverse to the ascending. At these two points, the colon takes a quick 90 degree turn. I know that when you look at the colon tube, and think of it going around such a curve, it sounds impossible. Trust and obey. It's not impossible. It's just difficult and time consuming. By spinning the tube and gently rocking it back and forth, you will find it will go around the corner. Once you have most of the tube in you, you may start the flow and regulate it for the sake of comfort.

If you feel cramping or excessive fullness, shut the valve for a moment and let the feeling pass. Panting may help relieve cramps. Just make sure nobody's around to see you doing this, it all looks kind of weird ;-) There are a number of herbs such as comfrey, chamomile and catnip, which lessen cramping and can enhance the restorative power of the procedure. You can make an herbal tea for an enema by steeping 1 ounce of the dried herb in a pint of just boiled water for twenty minutes, then diluting to desired volume and temperature.

Enemas and colonics do deplete the supply of friendly flora in the bowels. To replace what is washed away, you can eat some yogurt having active yogurt cultures, drink acidophilus milk, or get a special cleansing product with acidophilus and psyllium husks from your health food store. Of course, if you find the process pleasant, or dislike the taste of the aforementioned lactobacillus sources, they work even better if injected into the other end rather than being eaten.

Some people find that an enema, particularly if it is retained for a time, upsets the electrolyte balance of their blood. After the procedure, they feel a bit light-headed. To avoid this, you may add 1 tablespoon of baking soda and 1 teaspoon of salt for each quarts of water used. Note that many people use plain water with no adverse effects. Be guided in the choice of solutions by a sensitivity to your own system.

Whether an enema or colonic cleanses the colon only, or goes beyond into the small intestine, is controlled by the amount of water taken in at any one time. For the typical adult, the first 2 quarts of solution will fill the colon. Any additional water will force its way beyond the colon, and begin to fill the long, serpentine organ called the small intestine. Four quarts or thereabouts will fill the full intestinal tract of most people. Thus, the four quart enema is called the high enema. I take them with no problem, and can usually manage the full four quarts. Others find that 3 to 3.5 quarts is about their limit. Note that you need to develop your awareness of the inside of your own body as a first step in taking high enemas. Four quarts is painful to me, but not excessively so. I can tell when I've had enough, and need to shut off the flow and release the water. Learn to discern the line between "Wow, I'm full." and potentially dangerous damage to your internal organs.

If, at first, you find that the high enema is just beyond your capacity, here is a little trick that may help expand your horizons. (From Mleather) About 2 ours prior to bed time take 16 ounces of water orally with one table spoon of epson salts in it. For the next hour keep drinking as much water as you get down, But stop one hour before bed time. You will empty your self out naturally the next hour.

In the morning than try to see how much you can retain after 8 hours of good sleep. the rest is required.

Are high enemas beneficial? Yes. The same clogging and buildup that plagues modern man's colon is active at higher reaches and, if anything, more pernicious there. The large intestine doesn't extract all that much in nutrients from material it holds. The small intestine, however, is a very active and vital part of our digestive system. It is responsible for transferring nutrients, calories, and vitamins from its contents to your body. As its walls become caked with hard, decaying wastes, the effect can be devastating to your health and vitality.

When you take a high enema, it is a good idea to add a 2 quart pitcher to your equipment list. Put the first 2 quarts of the chosen fluid in the bag and the refill in the pitcher. When you've emptied the first bag into yourself, you'll appreciate not having to futz with the plumbing and wait for the water to run warm before a refill. It's a good idea to stop the flow just before the first bag fully empties. That way, when you refill the bag, you don't end up with air trapped in the hose. Note that the air won't hurt you if some does get trapped and injected. It does tend to increase cramping, though, and it sounds atrocious as it comes back out!

The Colema board is a device that can be used to increase the efficiency of cleansing and make the process a bit easier and more pleasant, to boot. It is a padded board with a deflector shield at one end. The board sits with its shield end on an open toilet and the head end supported by a pedestal of a height matching the toilet. The user lies on the board with buttocks near the shield and head away from the commode. Most Colema kits include tubing, nozzles, and a five gallon pail for solution. The user inserts the nozzle, lets water flow in till well filled, then expels into the shield area. The shield is formed to deflect the discharge downward into the toilet. Filling and expulsion are repeated until the 5 gallons are used. Colema boards make abdominal massage easier, facilitate the penetration of the water for high cleansing, and improve expulsion since the colon is not forced to squeeze part of the water uphill. The Colema board is available from

Colema Boards Inc., Anderson, CA (916) 365-2496 and Ultimate II, Salt Lake City, UT (800) 468-3416

Regardless of how you inject the water and what the volume, retention for 5 to 15 minutes increases the efficacy of the cleanse. You will find that, with the high enema, such a long retention period either great self discipline, or a conversion to earnest masochism, but it can be done.

For a full cleanse, you should use high enemas until you run clear (until the waste water comes back out as clear through most of the expulsion. You can't get it clear right to the last drop, so don't wear your ass out trying.) Perhaps this is where the expression, "good to the last drop," originated. I have always wondered what was wrong with the last drop.

After all has been said and done, it is time to clean up your kit. Mild soap and warm water are all you should need. Be particularly thorough in cleaning the colon tube, as the petroleum jelly lubricant will attack the rubber if given time.

Remember the fellow that was found in the hardware store, repeatedly bashing his thumb with a ball-peen hammer. The clerk asked in horror, "Why on earth do you keep doing that." To which, the man replied, "Oh, because it feels so good when I finally stop." After a three to five of 4 quart enemas, when you finally see those clean returns, you will probably look back on the procedure with new understanding for what the hammer wielding whacko meant. When that feeling arises, think for a moment about the alternative of slow but steadily declining health and vitality. If you are worried that many would consider the procedure gross, consider that, without cleansing, you are carrying around caked up wastes that are years old, putrefying in your internal organs.

I wish you the best in getting your system restored to the perfection our Creator planned for you and designed into your body.

Chapter 5, How to turn your lover into enema lover

I have been moved to tears reading some of the e-mail I get from members and prospective members of the E-SIG (our enema-erotic special interest group). There are so many enema lovers who are lonely, frustrated, isolated. There are so many who are convinced that that's the way things have to stay. Horse puckey. It ain't necessarily so.

Some time ago, the E-SIG gathered the seduction plans and success stories of our members. We asked for more ideas on the Internet. Out of that effort, and my reading, this document has grown. Here's the bottom line. If you are attractive and articulate enough to interest another human being in a relationship, and if you will study these methods and put them to work, you can teach your mate to share in your passion for erotic enemas. Here is how.

 

BE SELFLESSLY LOVING Most attempts fail because they are correctly perceived by the mate as selfish manipulation.

Read 1st Corinthians 13, meditatively, 3 times per day for 30 days. NOTE: In English, we overuse the word, Love. A person can love their dog, love their car, make love, fall in love, love it up. Love is sometimes taken to mean sexual union, but when someone loves their car, this is usually not what is implied. In Greek (the language that 1 Cor. was written in, there are 3 separate words to describe differing aspects of love. Eros speaks of sexual love or lust. Phileo is about brotherly love, friendship. Philadelphia, the city of brotherly love, takes its name, if not its cultural ethos, from Phileo. But the highest form of love, agape, is unique. It is God's love for us, the unlovely. It is a love so pure and sincere that it is not based on any beauty or merit within the object it is lavished upon. It depends for its existence only on the nature of the lover, not the lovee. It might be called will-power love. Agape is love based not on performance of the object of affection but on the flint-faced decision to love, no matter what. This is the love that 1st Corinthians shows so eloquently in action. It is the love that, if we adopt it, will give us the patience and perseverance to win love from the object of our affection. It is the love that is the antithesis of the way of this world. By coming to understand God's unconditional love for us, and, as we understand it, reflecting it absolutely toward our mate, we can break down the barriers of fear that keep us from sharing and meeting each other's inner needs. Note that some translations render the Greek agape as charity, just so it won't be confused with the baser meanings attached to the English word, love. For our purposes, however, the better choice is "Love," but with a full understanding of the tremendous magnitude of the word. Try reading 1 Cor. 13, not just in sing-song fashion, but meditatively, three times a day, for thirty days. See what a change it brings about. You won't be the same person, and neither will your lover.

 

PUT PRIORITY ON SEDUCTION Having an open, sharing relationship where you are appreciated for your true self is IMPORTANT. Decide for yourself that this is true, then share that view with your mate. Share it often. Take the time necessary to make it happen. Plan it as you would if you were preparing for a major career move or the construction of a new spec home. Make it a priority. Write up a plan for your seduction, covering major objectives and minute steps to achieve them. Work very slowly, one step at a time.

 

KNOW YOUR ENEMA ENEMY Recognize our culture's taboo re anal area and functions. Unless they grew up alone on a desert island, your SO has almost certainly been steeped in the teaching that the anus is dirty. It's disgusting. It's unclean. It's ugly. It's probably full of every horrible disease. You shouldn't even look at it, and certainly never touch it. These messages are conveyed to very young children by parents, friends and caregivers. They are taught long before the child can consciously debate the information and decide personally whether it is rational or not. Thus, taboo operates beneath the conscious level, and is very difficult to attack with logic.

I mean how rational can it be to believe that you should never never touch your anus when its part of you? Try as you may to avoid it, you're touching it all the time. Is it reasonable to believe that shit would pollute the end of your finger beyond salvation when you walk around day after day with a load of shit inside you?

In setting your plans for bringing your partner into enema fun, figure out how strong their anal taboo feelings are. What do they think is OK and what do they think is NOT OK? Build a strategy to break down the taboo.

 

BE CONFIDENT ENEMAS ARE OK One great roadblock to presenting enema eroticism in a positive light is the negative feeling that we may have locked away in our own hearts. Here is a write-up on anal sex, looking at the rightness, morality, safety and so forth of back-door loving. What it says applies equally well to enema sex. Look it over. Sort out your own thoughts. Make sure you don't have unnecessary guilt weighing you down as you attempt to climb the mountain of enema seduction. Once you have the thing settled in your own mind, learn how to help your mate overcome their feelings of shame and guilt.

Anal intercourse can be a source of great pleasure for both participants. As a transsexual who has been on both ends of it, I am in a position to say so. It can also hurt like a Drano enema if you don't know what you are doing. Again, personal experience testifies. How do you find out what to do? Unfortunately, the ranks of anal experts are slim indeed among heterosexual Americans. Why shouldn't they be? After all, we're talking about a form of sexual expression that was, in many states in the near past, and still is in some, illegal even for a husband and wife to practice. We're dealing with an aspect of sexuality that cannot be mentioned in most circles. If you have problems with the missionary position, you can go to a marriage counselor, a doctor or even your pastor, and probably get pretty good advice. After all, unless you pick a priest, you are probably asking about something this individual has directly experienced. I wouldn't even rule the priest out of this category. Altogether different if you go ask a minister how to butt-fuck!

That's why the first step along the Hershey highway to marital bliss needs to be an examination of fears and guilt. Did God really intend to give 12 commandments, including thou shalt not know thy wife in her anal opening and thou shalt not know thy wife by means of your mouth? Did Moses accidentally break the tablets as he was descending Mount Hor, and deprive the whole world of these last 2 strictures? Did he deliberately crack off that part of the inscription because he was a closet butt-fucker and cunt licker himself? Probably not. If God is whom He claims, in His word, to be, then He is more than capable of getting His word inscribed accurately by puny man. If He's not who He claims to be, then why worry about what His word says anyway?

No! In truth, you can search the Word of God from one cover to the other, and you'll find not a jot or a tittle prohibiting our using the bodies we were given to afford our married partner pleasure. Here's what you will find. Col 3:18 Wives, submit to your own husbands, as is fitting in the Lord. 3:19 Husbands, love your wives and do not be bitter toward them. And this: 1 Cor 7:3 Let the husband render to his wife the affection due her, and likewise also the wife to her husband. 7:4 The wife does not have authority over her own body, but the husband does. And likewise the husband does not have authority over his own body, but the wife does. 7:5 Do not deprive one another except with consent for a time, that you may give yourselves to fasting and prayer; and come together again so that Satan does not tempt you because of your lack of self-control. And this: Heb. 13:4 Marriage is honorable among all, and the bed undefiled; but fornicators and adulterers God will judge. All quotations are from The Living Bible.

You will hear preachers and moralists rave against the evils of everything sexual, but that just doesn't jibe with the Word they claim to be expounding. God clearly prohibits sexual immorality, homosexuality, cross-dressing, sex with animals, witchcraft, adultery and fornication. God says not a word about which holes husbands and wives should apply to which appurtenances in order to pleasure themselves. Apparently, He was content to let each married pair work that out on their own. So go over that in your head. Read through the scriptures of your belief. If you are troubled that anal sex is somehow sinful, the first step to pleasure on the Hershey highway is letting go of the misguided sense of guilt. When it comes to backdoor sex (or erotic enemas), the sin idea comes from uptight men and women, not from God.

Let me digress a moment before the flames appear in droves. I list the prohibitions around sexual behavior not to condemn anyone, but to tell you frankly what is and isn't sin according to the Word of God. Remember that I am a self confessed transsexual who's had carnal contact with men. I am guilty of every "Thou shall not" except bestiality, which never really appealed to me anyway, or I'd probably have done that too. Fortunately, the same document that condemned my behavior held a most marvelous plan of redemption that was powerful enough even for the likes of me.

After the shame of sin, the fear of pain or even physical damage is the next great lock holding shut the back door. Again, a little reason and knowledge is the key. First, consider that, when you poop, you are passing something roughly the size of an erect penis through your rectal opening. It doesn't hurt all that bad. Unless a man's cock is huge in girth, anal intercourse should be possible with no more pain or damage than that which you incur from a bowel movement. Granted, if you do it wrong, it can hurt like a root canal. The good news is, you don't have to do it wrong. You can learn how to do it right, and then it can feel very very good, It can even make you cum. (The same goes for enemas. They can deliver intense pain, intense pleasure, or an intoxicating mixture of the two. See the forgoing chapters for a complete discussion of how to do it for health and pleasure.)

"But I have hemorrhoids," you say. So? If you have a mild case, less than that which would suggest a surgical cure, then anal sex might even help. The doctor would most likely prescribe the use of creams and an anal dilator (a set of progressively larger cone shaped dildos). Guess how big the largest cone is. If you said dick sized, give yourself an extra ten points. By the way, you can purchase a set of dilators from a good druggist or medical supply. They make an excellent tool to prepare yourself for losing your anal cherry, and the prep work can be fun in itself. If you do have a serious case of hemorrhoids, consult a proctologist and see if surgery is the answer. If it is, get that and the healing process over with before starting your back-door voyage.

There is one more MAJOR source of inhibition regarding anal eroticism, and this is one we cannot just dismiss as unreasoned prudishness. This is the area of health concerns, and of sexually transmitted diseases (STDs). Before we launch into this discussion, let's state the "bottom line" on anal sex and STDs. If approached improperly, anal sex can be dangerous or even deadly. If approached properly, it is as safe as vaginal intercourse and probably safer than most oral sexual contacts. Anal Sex and Health, by Dr. Jack Morin, is an excellent reference on safe anal sex. Its information on this and anal taboos is equally applicable to enema sex. It's available through any major bookseller (in all but large cities, they'll probably have to order it) or you can buy it from Good Vibrations in San Francisco (415) 974-8990 FAX (415) 974- 8989). It's only $12.50 Get it and study it.

 

WRITTEN GOALS ARE MANDATORY Have a written goal. If you want to introduce your mate to the joys and pleasures you find in enemas, write up this goal. Write it as if it has already happened, and you're describing it. Write lots of detail. Don't just say, my wife is going to love enemas. Say my wife and I thrill to find weekends when we can share in water games. She loves to lie across my lap and let me masturbate her while I fill her rear with hot water. Go on and on. This way, your subconscious mind can go to work on how to make your dreams happen. Your subconscious needs concrete things and feelings to work on, not just a word goal, so visualize how it will be when the goal is achieved.

Rewrite it every morning. Do this first thing, while your mind is still uncluttered with the "Tyranny of the Urgent." "We love to share inner needs and secrets with each other. My mate is so..." Each morning, as you write your goals, visualize how the realized dream will be.

Make sure the first goal you set is believable. If you make $30,000 per year, you probably wouldn't believe yourself if you set a goal to earn $300,000 next year. Better to set a goal to earn 25% more next year. Same thing with your seduction plan. The first step should be a reach, but not an impossible leap. This way, your faith will be strong, and you will believe you will reach the target. Once you've achieved that first step, set a new goal.

An interesting aside on the power of written goals. In a major study, the graduating class of Yale university was surveyed to find out which students consistently set written goals. Only 3% regularly used written goals in their school work. Most of these were top students. But what is truly enlightening is that there was a follow up done 20 years after the graduation. In that follow-up, the 3% who set written goals earned more than the 97% of the Yale graduates who did not! Written goals work! If sharing your love of enemas with your mate is important to you, use written goals.

 

BE DILIGENT As important as having a great intimacy with your mate is, it is surprising how little effort most of us invest in achieving that goal. Make it a priority. Study and carefully plan and target your approach.

Gather and read health books that advocate enemas. Learn the benefits and how to sell them. There are a number of ailments and complaints that can be improved or altogether eliminated through the correct use of herbal treatments, enemas, and naturopathic programs. If your honey suffers from something that enemas can fix, what better way to introduce them than to do it through a cure. Some good resources are:

Airola, Paavo, Ph.D.; Are You Confused: The Authoritative Answers to Controversial Questions; The doctor sets out, with some degree of success, to provide definitive answers to questions hotly debated among nutritionists. Topics include macrobiotics, fasting, herbs, meats and yes, enemas. There is a clear regimen for daily enemas during a prolonged juice fast.

Bahr, Robert; Good Hands: Massage Techniques for Total Health; Signet Books, New York, NY, 1984. A very thorough and balanced manual on massage. No direct discussion of enemas or colonic cleansing, however.

Kira, Prof. Alexander; The Bathroom; Bantam Books, New York, NY, 1976. In this book, Alexander Kira, Professor of Architecture at Cornell University, tackles a tough subject with minimal fear of taboos. If bathrooms are dear to your heart as they are to many enema fans, this book is worth finding. It is full of suggestions on design improvements and insights into prejudices and taboos surrounding our personal hygiene habits.

Kloss, Jethro; Back to Eden: The Classic Guide to Herbal Medicine, Natural Foods and Home Remedies; New Revised Edition; Back to Eden Books, Loma Linda, CA, 1992 This is a necessity for naturopathic enthusiasts. It includes a few case studies in which Jethro Kloss used enemas and colon cleansings to cure all sorts of maladies. Jethro believed in multiple four quart treatments. The book has been published continuously since 1946 by the Kloss family. A true classic. NOTE: This is not recent medical science but collected lore and wisdom. It is not, by any stretch, an erotic enema treatise. NOTE. Both the original and revised versions are still sold. We recommend, unless you are buying it as a collectable, the revised edition. It is much more logically organized

Malstron, Stan D., Own Your Own Body, Among other things, this book describes a treatment for chronic eczema using enemas, herbs and naturopathy.

Reid, Daniel P.; The Tao of Health, Sex and Longevity: A Modern Practical Guide to the Ancient Way; A Fireside Book, Simon and Schuster, Inc., New York, NY, 1989. This book offers valuable insights into ancient Chinese philosophy and healing arts, along with unresearched opinion on the part of the author. Good discernment is required on the part of the reader in selecting the portions of the text to adopt and those to abort. There is a useful and well-documented discussion of the use of enemas and Colema boards in cleansing of the intestines. The discussions of Taoist opinions on sexuality and marital relations are also worthwhile.

Tierra, Michael, C.A, N.D; The Way of Herbs; Pocket Books, Div. Of Simon and Schuster, Inc., New York, NY, 1990. This is an exhaustive treatise on the use of herbs in cooking and in treating illness. It discusses the enema as a treatment of constipation and a tool for toxin elimination during fasting. It also covers a number of herbal teas and decoctions that might be employed in enemas.

BE REALISTIC. Forget chasing the Rainbow. Read Super Marital Sex by Paul Pearshall, Ph.D. I know, I know, one more sex manual, you're thinking. Trust me. This one is different. Most sex manuals feature a collection of all the wild things and strained positions possible, with little of help in getting an SO to share them with you. They often contribute to, rather than destroy, one's frustration with a lackluster love life. Super Marital Sex is different. It is written from the perspective that really great sex, truly uninhibited love making, is only established through great intimacy and trust. An extreme of trust and intimacy are required to really open up in enema sex. These things are just not going to come from a casual encounter. Forget finding some perfectly matched enemaholic and having a wild weekend of watersports. It is a self defeating fantasy. If you tied your financial success solely to catching a leprechaun, and demanding his pot of gold, how would your bank account look? Same thing for your love life if you chase a doomed fantasy rather than build on a firm foundation of committed love.

If you are in good enough communication with your mate, read and study Dr. Pearshall's book together. Constantly reassure your lover that you are not just conducting a campaign to have your own way in bed, but that you want to be able to share this important part of who you are. I personally don't feel I can give all of myself to my spouse without sharing my anal eroticism with her. I felt sleazy when I had to sneak off to a motel to play watersports on business trips.

 

TO E OR NOT TO E, THAT IS THE QUESTION Sex is supposed to be for two, right? Really great, meaningful intimacy demands that sex be for two. If your mate deeply objects to a particular act, it might be best to find other acts that both of you enjoy, and enjoy them together.

On the other hand, that's not always the solution. That's one model of sex, true, but that leaves out an awful lot. It's not always necessary for both partners to actively enjoy every sex act. It's simply necessary for both partners to be able to accept each sex act, and for both partners to get a sufficient supply of the sex that really does turn them on. Sometimes that means that one person will agree to a sex act that really does nothing for them, and find it tremendously pleasurable because they can see how much it means to their partner. If fair is fair, then that person will in turn receive their own 'special' time. Find out what your mate really craves, that does nothing for you. Play "Let's Make a Deal"

 

DISCOVER THE SEX ORGAN YOU DIDN'T KNOW EXISTED Read about Arnold H. Kegel, M.D. and his work on the pubococcygeous (PCG) muscle. You will find this discussed with sufficient detail in another sex manual, Wake Up in Bed Together, by Drs. Claude and Dorothy Nolte. Read their book together. It explains the function of the PCG (the muscle that supports the pelvic floor, controls closure of the anus, urethra and, in the woman, the vagina, and spasms like gangbusters when you come). What you learn will give you new insights into the enjoyment of enemas, which can be used to stimulate this nerve-rich muscle to the point of orgasm. Encourage your mate (particularly if SO is a female) to exercise the PCG. Also, be sure to carefully read their chapter on anal love.

 

USE POSITIVE REINFORCEMENT Be quick, but not too obvious, with positive reinforcement. Every time your lover does something that moves toward the anal love you need, give them positive reinforcement. Likewise, every time they open that part of themselves to you, even a little, reward the behavior massively.

 

EASY DOES IT Let them take their first few enemas for health alone. Remember, you didn't start off as an enema erotic, did you? After they have had a few, ask if they could handle being hugged during the process. Slowly escalate the contact, over a number of sessions. Advance to caressing, fondling, masturbating, the sky's the limit.

 

E-TALK Talk about it. Describe to them how enemas make you feel. Sell how sexy they are. Explain the physiology of enema eroticism. Tell them how intimate the experience is, how close you would feel if the two of you could share something so deeply personal.

LEAVE SOME NOT-SO-SUBTLE HINTS Be up front with your love of enemas. Leave your bag out in the open in your bath. If you are not already in a relationship, don't go too far in getting to know someone without bringing up the subject and finding out how receptive they may be. How many of us went all the way through getting married before sharing this vital part of our nature? Shame.

 

DIRECT AND TO THE POINT Try the "subtle as a train crash" approach. Remember the shaggy dog story about the guy who was new in town, walked up to an attractive woman at a bus stop and asked her if she'd like to make passionate love for hours. Of course, she just hauled off and slapped him silly, then left in a huff. A bystander, witnessing the spectacle, suggested that, around these parts, you need to be a bit more subtle. To which, the stranger replied. "Look! I'm only going to be here a few days, so I don't have time for the subtle approach. I figure nine out of ten women will slap the hell out of me for such a stunt, but I'm going to keep asking till I find the one who won't!"

 

CLEAN ME BEFORE YOU REAM ME. Tie enema cleansing to anal sex. Claim that anal sex, done properly, can be a wondrous turn on for both partners. With the exception of a small portion of the population, that's the truth. Claim that an enema is an intimate and sensual way to prepare for the experience. Again, you'll be telling the truth. Enemas are generally not needed to clean the rectum prior to anal sex. There are two sphincters inside. One is at the anal opening. The other is about 6 inches upstream and excludes feces from the area an average penis would reach. The exception is when a bowel movement is imminent, at which time the fecal matter will have filled this last few inches of colon. The pressure of it on the outer sphincter is the trigger that initiates the urge to go. However, it is not uncommon to find some feces in the last 6 inches. Reason enough for a good flushing.

NOTE: The woman who reported this approach noted that this is how she discovered the thrill of enemas. She was electrified by the ritual her anal-erotic lover made of laying her down, gently and thoroughly lubing her anus, spreading her cheeks lovingly, sliding the nozzle into her, checking that the water was right, and so forth. In our E-SIG enema survey, the women often mentioned the titillation of the ritual involved in an enema, so guys, don't overlook this in a headlong rush to get to the bottom line.

NOTE: To properly use this technique, you need to study the how-tos of anal sex. This is one area where, to initiate a first timer, the get-in- and-get-off approach is NOT going to work. If anyone would like instructions, we are compiling a book on the ins and outs of anal intercourse. Stay tuned.

 

DON'T SELL THE STEAK, SELL THE SIZZLE Promote to your sweetie how things would be if the two of you could share this important part of you. Tell your SO you know it's not fair to force them to change. When people feel pressured to change their basic personality, they are very likely to dig in their heels. Work with your SO's needs. Most women want to get into their man's heart. Most men want to get into their woman's body. Whichever turns your SO on, assure them that sharing in this area is the most efficient way in the known universe to attain their goal.

 

IT'S ALL IN THE POSITION Girls, you will have NO trouble getting your boyfriend or husband to give YOU an enema. If you do, consider a new boyfriend or husband as the one you've got isn't normal.

If you want to, tell him they're for health reasons. Look all embarrassed and tell him you think it will work better if HE administers the enema because you're not very good at it and you really, really do feel so much better after you've had one. Don't lie, though. Don't say anything that would preclude your telling him that you love enemas later.

Then, get him to give you the enema in the sexiest way possible. I'd suggest having him sit on the bed while you lie across his lap in spanking position.

Wear nice sexy undies or a sexy nightie. Something that you know turns him on.

While getting the enema, make sure you let him know you appreciate what he's doing. Lots of soft, contented "Ummmmm"s let him know he's doing it right.

Lots of sexy wiggling on his lap lets him know he's doing the right thing too. God gave you a cute butt. Wiggle it!

Make sure a lot of that wiggling rubs against his cock. What do you think your hips are there for, anyway? Rub!

Afterwards, make sure you fuck him. (Pardon my French) Tell him that his hands on your bottom and all that water inside you just makes you so horny you can hardly stand it. Then fuck him again. (Pardon my Anglo-Saxon) And again. Each half hour until one of you falls asleep from exhaustion.

Do this every week. Get him to associate giving you an enema with the best sex he's ever dreamed of and reinforce it each week. If he doesn't start wondering what those enemas feel like, you have a defective boyfriend/husband and you should get a new one. Suggest that you give him a little bitty tiny one. Make sure he has an erection and that you're caressing his bottom while you suggest it. If he says no, try again in a week or two.

When he says yes, make it a small one, be gentle, use warm water and a pinch of salt and make sure the sex afterwards is _very_ intense. Build up from there.

Theresa (Of Internet Newsgroup, alt.sex.enemas) Who actually followed a similar path*, except it was easier because my then boyfriend had been spanking me erotically since we were in grade school. It helps if he's already into somewhat kinky sex. The above suggestions should work on anybody who's worth being in bed with in the first place, even if they have spent entirely too much time in the Boy Scouts.

* I told him from the beginning that I liked enemas. Of course, I was lying across his lap at the time with a red bottom, so I wasn't afraid I was going to shock him or anything.

NOTE: While this was written from the feminine viewpoint as seen by one of our E-SIG ladies, the same tactic is often effective for a man. Basically, guys, if you want so much to goose her, show her how much you like it when she does you. Fair for the goose is fair for the gander. Tell her you need a sexy nurse's touch. Make sure you lie across her lap or snuggle up against her where she can feel that hardon strain against her soft flesh the whole time she fills you. Be vocal. Tell her in no uncertain terms how great it feels. Be sure to not slip into the contrived. After she does this for you, make sure she gets the hottest loving you know how to give her and that it is not the kind you want to give, but the kind she yearns to get.

 

THE FAT-FARM GOES FETISH This might be a great way to win a loving mate and a dedicated enemaholic in one fell poop. Find a fat person with a lovely angelic face and no cellulite. Take them under your wing and put them on a regimen of 3 high enemas a day and a reasonable diet. High enemas, those involving more than 2 quarts of water, reach beyond the colon and empty part or all of the small intestine, the area where most of the caloric content of food is extracted by the body. You can (after reading up on it, see the bibliography) also use fasting to shed some of those pounds, and fasting goes with enemas like ice cream and cones. Make sure each enema is administered as lovingly and erotically as is possible without blowing your cover (and your wad). Within a few months, look what you'll have. A beautiful and svelte lover. A mate who's addicted to submitting their gorgeous hiney to your enema ministrations, and a gut full of lust for that rear you have so lovingly been doctoring. The downside is that you'll also have the largest water bill ever sent to any single-family residence in your town.

 

"MAINTENANCE OF A POSITIVE ATTITUDE THROUGH THE ASSUMPTION OF A NEGATIVE RESULT" As Robert Rimmer suggests in his book, Winning Through Intimidation, be prepared for a negative result. This way, on the one hand, you won't be disappointed easily. On the other hand, you'll be positively thrilled with anything better than utter failure.

Happy Motoring
