Help me improve this and/or share it. There are so many misconceptions floating around.
Omorashi is a fetish centering around people who are desperate to pee or wet themselves. Some omorashi lovers enjoy the feeling of a full bladder, or the feeling of losing control, while others strictly enjoy watching. The word omorashi comes from Japanese and means âto wet oneself.â
Eww. Thatâs disgusting.
Pee is sterile when it comes out. Itâs certainly not for everyone, but then again, neither is any other fetish. However, we need to clearly establish what omorashi is not:
Omorashi is not watersports or golden showers.
Omorashi is not drinking pee.
Omorashi is not peeing on other people.
Omorashi is not a fascination with urination in general.
Omorashi is not diapers or adult babies, although those fetishes may also involve wetting.
Some omorashi lovers may enjoy these things as well, but they are not part of the omorashi fetish. Omorashi is strictly bladder desperation and wetting.
You should be ashamed / Iâm ashamed.
Peeing is taboo. Incontinence in adults is taboo. Any fetish that involves something taboo will be subject to shaming by society. Many kinksters cycle through phases of acceptance and shame. For omorashi lovers, the high of a desperation and wetting experience often comes with a shameful comedown. Suddenly youâre left with a puddle of cooling pee to clean up, and after getting release for the arousal, youâre down to the level of excitement vanilla people experience with regards to pee, which is to say none.
Thereâs nothing inherently shameful about any activity between consenting adults that doesnât harm anyone else. Itâs society that puts that shame on us. Nobody has that right. Like any other kink, the majority will find it weird at best, disgusting or immoral at worst. We can choose to accept our interest or attempt to reject it for societyâs sake. The latter is unnecessary and often futile. Many people have been ashamed about their fetish and tried to somehow erase or forget it. Usually, it doesnât work. Itâs like repressing a sexual orientation. It doesnât work and we shouldnât have to do it.
A fetish is normally not seen as pathological. Itâs not a disease unless it causes significant distress to the fetishist or others in their life. 99.9% of omorashi fetishists do not have significant impairments to their daily functioning or general happiness due to their fetish. For many, it enhances their sex life. As for the moral sense of âsick,â see above.
Why would anyone get turned on by needing to pee or seeing others who need to pee?
There are many elements to it that cross over into other fetishes:
Exhibitionism. Being visibly desperate to pee, or peeing oneself in public is an attention-grabber that some people find arousing.
Humiliation. Some people get turned on by being humiliated, or humiliating others. Wetting accidents are certainly embarrassing.
Masochism. The feeling of a desperately full bladder is painful and uncomfortable. Some people enjoy the pain and discomfort. Paradoxically, sometimes pain equals pleasure.
Sadism. Some people like inflicting pain and discomfort on others, or watching them inflict it upon themselves. Knowing the other person is desperately struggling against their own body, or seeing them embarrassed, can be arousing to some.
Dominance/submission. Some omorashi fetishists enjoy controlling another personâs bladder, or having their own bladder controlled.
Voyeurism. Some people get turned on by watching other people without their knowledge. (The morality of which depends entirely on context and that discussion is outside the scope of this FAQ.)
Ultimately, omorashi is all of those things and none of them. Just like some people get turned on by earlobes or balloons or latex, some people get off on pee desperation and wetting.
But how could such a fetish develop?
When this question is asked on fetish forums, the answers are too many and varied to come up with a one-size-fits-all origin story. Some people have had an unusual fascination with peeing since childhood, and at some point it turned sexual. Some people have defining events that they link to the origin of their fetish. Some people were merely curious and started experimenting. Some people explore omorashi as an extension of other fetishes, such as the ones mentioned above. Some people were bedwetters as children, others were not. Some people have known about their fetish since before they became sexually aware, for others itâs a more recent discovery.
Holding your bladder until it explodes sounds dangerous.
Itâs almost unheard of that a bladder actually ruptures from the inside out. You will almost certainly wet your pants long before thereâs any danger to your bladder, unless there is something physically obstructing the urethra. Itâs possible for urine to back up into the kidneys and damage them, but this is, again, a one in a million type scenario that is highly unlikely to occur during a pee holding session.
The biggest danger isnât to your bladder, but to your kidneys. If you drink too much in too little time, your kidneys canât filter all the liquid fast enough. If you get kidney pain, abort immediately. Make sure to drink sensibly. Donât down a gallon in an hour.
Many fetishes carry risk, but omorashi is a very low-risk fetish, considering it involves inflicting physical pain. Itâs no balloon fetish, but for what it is, itâs rather safe.
But there was a woman who died from holding it too long?
The origin of this urban myth is a pee holding contest called âHold your wee for a Wiiâ, held by a radio station. A woman, Jennifer Strange, died after competing in the contest. The cause of death was water intoxication, not holding it too long. The dose makes the poison, and even water becomes poisonous in high enough doses. If you drink too much, your electrolytesâwhich your body need in order for muscles and nerve cells to fireâbecome too diluted, and you could die.
Water intoxication occurs when you consume way too much liquid over a short period of time. Going to the bathroom wouldnât have saved Jennifer Strange.
The best safety advice is not to overdo your water consumption. It takes a whole lot of water to get water intoxication. Another tip is to mix it up with energy drinks, which contain electrolytes.
What is this I see about 4/10 or 10/10?
These are numbers on the âdesperation scaleâ where 0/10 is not having to pee at all, and 10/10 is on the verge of losing control completely. The numbers are obviously subjective, but are meant to give some idea about what state the person is in.
Where can I find out more or meet others who are into omorashi?
These days, the most active forum is omorashi.org. Other forums include skymouseâs wetbbs and peesearch, which is more of a general pee fetish forum. Youâre already on tumblr, so I will assume you know there are many omorashi fetishists here as well. Keep an eye out for the #omorashi tag.
