ABSTRACT

Wet and Messy (WAM) is a sexual fetish that involves the use of food, water or other messy items and has a number of elements in common with bondage-discipline, domination-submission, sadomasochism (BDSM). WAM pornography contains elements associated with slapstick comedy as well. In this article I illustrate how Williams’ work on pornography, Peacock’s work on slapstick comedy and Hills’ work on affective play can be used to analyse power and play in WAM videos. I argue that awareness of consent, safety, participant enjoyment and the oscillation of subject positions by the viewer are key to understanding audience engagement, and that WAM pornography - like other forms of pornography - is capable of interrogating or subverting sociocultural norms around bodies and pleasure.

摘要

湿漉漉和凌乱（WAM）是一种涉及使用食物、水或其他凌乱物品的性恋物癖，与束缚-纪律、统治-屈服、施虐受虐（BDSM）有许多共同点。WAM 色情内容也包含与闹剧相关的元素。在本文中，我将说明如何使用 Williams 在色情内容方面的工作、Peacock 在闹剧喜剧方面的工作以及 Hills 在情感游戏方面的工作来分析 WAM 视频中的力量和游戏。我认为，观众对同意、安全、参与者享受和主体立场摇摆的意识是理解观众参与的关键，并且 WAM 色情制品 - 与其他形式的色情制品一样 - 能够质疑或颠覆围绕身体和快乐的社会文化规范。
