Swimming in clothes is popular worldwide

Got a Problem?
We're here to help. If you have a soaking problem, ask our team for help. We often get wet or go swimming in clothes and have seen it all before. You are not alone.

In the Wet Clothing Forum you can share ideas and meet wet friends.

Play safely in the sun

On the Wacky Wet Archive you'll find old versions of this wetsite.

Shower

Just do it !
    Welcome to our wet support system. Each month we get emails from readers having difficulty swimming in clothes because of the stupid opinions of "normal" people. Ignore the mockers, let them fry to a crisp in the sun. Swimming in clothes is fun, a new trendsport if you like. You get fit and healthy doing it. Be confident about it, walk tall, and people will respect you. Just do it !

We are in the majority

    Well, maybe not where you live. But worldwide, people normally swim in clothes. Think of India with more population than Europe, Australia and USA combined. Think of Latin America or Africa. How about Southeast Asia, again with a population the size of Europe. You'd be frowned upon there if you go swimming in your skimpy shorts or briefs. It's offensive to them, indecent. There are more people on this planet swimming in clothes than without.

Logical and Healthy

    Swimming in clothes is not weird or crazy. It is the intelligent response to environmental challenges. We spend more time outdoors than people did 50 or a 100 years ago whilst the protective ozone layer of our atmosphere is thinning. We have to protect ourselves, especially near water where reflections almost double the UV exposure from the sun's rays. Swimming in clothes is the logical thing to do.

Think of the healthcare costs

    Did you know that skin cancer is on the rise, due to sunburn. Are you aware that you are paying with your health insurance for the vanity of sun worshippers? Next time someone mocks you for swimming in clothes, tell them you don't want skin cancer and you're not willing to pay for theirs.

Turn it around

    When you see someone topless on the beach ask them why they're risking their health. Tell them how skin cancer is increasing the cost of health care and is jacking up their health costs too.

Not a gay issue

    Contrary to what some simpletons say, getting wet is not a gay issue. Many wetlook sites feature wet women. Wetlook is very popular in the straight community. They make up most of our readers. We show mostly wet guys because that is our niche in the market; there are plenty of wet women wetsites.

    However, gays are probably more open about it as they have better learned how to handle discrimination, sometimes the hard way. They can handle idiots with more confidence. Therefore, wet gays maybe more visible than wet straights. But it doesn't make wetlook a gay only issue. To paraphrase a famous gay slogan all we can say is:

Come out of the shower !

    Be seen in the open so other wet friends can find you. Maybe we should have a Wet Pride Parade each summer. Or celebrate Songkran in Thailand at the peak of the hot season (April), throwing water over everybody. Will they be amused? You bet.

Popular swimming outfits are blue jeans, T-shirt and a sweatshirt. They feel incredible against the skin and shine really nice when wet.

It's Your Life - Live it wet !
    It is nobody's business what clothes you wear, on land or in the water. In this section we give you new ideas and share with you the fun we and our readers have whilst getting wet in clothes.

Individuality

    Swimming in clothes is all about expressing your individuality and a more creative choice of swim wear. There is no need to follow the standards dictated by the fashion industry. We are free to choose what clothes we want to wear on land and in the water. Don't let anyone convince you otherwise.

Artistic Expression

    The art of wetlook is well documented in many places around the Internet. It's good clean fun, and certainly harmless provided you take care not to slip in the tub or on pool-side. Wetlook is a relatively new art genre which is increasingly in demand by advertisers and publishers. Advertising clients require wet images for their fitness, sports, travel and lifestyle publications. See: artbase.com

Exciting Fun

    Many of our readers normally wind up either in a pool or hot tub fully clothed. Some are quite surprised at how terrific wet clothes feel on their skin. Usually their boy friend or girl friend throws them in or coaxes them in. Sometimes girls do it just because they like it and enjoy the attention they get.

    Others just wade in slowly and stop just before the water reaches the waist. The feeling is indescribable, we're told. Then they go in slowly the rest of the way until they're completely immersed and floating. Their clothes kind of float, too, and touch them gently as they float and swim. The rush is really exciting.

No Alternative

    It can be exciting when there is "no alternative" but to get into the water with your clothes on, when dry is not an option. On the beach you don't want to get the boat scratched by the beach pebbles, so you have to carry the boat into the water or back onto the beach. These are situations where you have little choice but to get at least partially soaked. Many adventure sports involve that you get your clothes wet at some stage. It's all part of the fun.

Thrilling Anticipation

    Often the anticipation of a good soaking is just as exciting, if not more so. During a capsize training the sailing boat slowly tilts more and more. You're still dry, but you know that any moment now you'll be in the water with all your clothes on. Next your shoes and socks get wet, then bottom of your jeans. Suddenly you fall in and all your clothes are soaking wet. The thrill is incredible.

Relaxing Joy

    Taylor from the music group Hanson said: "You know, if we ever get stressed, we just do everything, we just swim in the pool with all our clothes on, get all our stress out."

    Many readers find it very relaxing to just sit in the bathtub after a long day in whatever clothes they had on. It really takes away from the stresses of the day. They just enjoy their clothed soaks, or sometimes clothed showers; something they look forward to all day when they have a rough day at work. The clothes, washable as they are, simply go into the washing machine afterwards.

    Our readers enjoy this hobby either in the company of others or in the privacy of their own homes. So while some may refer to it as "unusual", it is indeed something many of us consider a perfectly normal and relaxing activity.
