What if I Do Want You to Spit in My Mouth?

Does that make me a freak?

Over the past weeks, while making my way through my regular Medium reading list, I came across two separate articles by a couple of my favorite female sex writers discussing their disdain for spit and saliva play in porn—and in sex in general. Their comments caught my interest immediately.

In Yael Wolfe’s Lament for Crappy Porn, she starts by asking “what’s with all the saliva?” and immediately confirms that she hates it. “I try so hard to be open-minded, but I cannot handle the juicy, stringy spit ball. (…) (No shame on people who like it.)”

Still, it was not without a fair amount of shame that I admitted, and responded: Well, I actually do kinda like some of that…

In Porn Moves You Should Never Try, Elle Beau ❇︎ lists spit and saliva play first, saying that “there seems to be a somewhat recent trend related to a guy (or dominant woman) spitting in the mouth of the chick they are fucking. Clearly, somebody finds that sexy, or it wouldn’t be depicted so often…”

Ehemmm, like me?!?! [Shamefully raises hand from the back of the audience].

After reading their essays, I felt a bit like a freak. Am I really the only weirdo out there who genuinely enjoys getting spat on?
