Hey, everybody.

It's Dan Savage, and you're listening to the Savage Lovecast, a once-a-weekly out-loud version of my sex advice column, Savage Love.

The number here at the podcast, if you want to record a question for a future podcast, 206, 201, 2720, and you download the podcast

every week at www.w.w.com slash savage. We got a lot of questions. Let's get right to the

recordings. Hi, Dan. I have a kind of complicated question. I'll try to keep it as short as I can.

It is about fetches.

I'm 35 and married to a great guy who has a fetish that's really kind of unusual as far as I know.

The thing is it's kind of a complicated one. It requires a lot of pre-planning in order to act on, so we haven't addressed it for a while.

His fetish is that he gets off on women getting hit by pies, you know, like in the movies and stuff. When he told me this, we had just started dating. I thought it was strange, but, you know, kind of cute. So what the hell I thought I'd indulge him. But I should also say that he had never told any girls about it really and never really acted on it. In fact, he was a virgin when we started dating in his late 20s, which I kind of thought was an extinct species, really. But he's totally made up for the last time, do all sorts of things now. He's great in bed. But anyway, we've acted on this bench a couple of times, like maybe, I I don't know five or six or eight total or something

like that and it's been a while in part because it's such a messy fetish we generally get like

you know putting with cream and stuff because I won't do shaving cream it gets in my face and my contacts

and hurts but we'll put all that stuff on plates and have like a pie-fly which we'll end up with us just

having like wild text and recovered and all this stuff and it's actually kind of fun but it's terrible

to set up and clean up it's like two hours on each side and you know covering things at tarps in our

apartment and it just kills the buzz of it unless we have a couple of hours to surprise him when he doesn't

know but I still always worry about the mess during and then we put up tarts in our place and gets places, you know, it gets like in the ceiling and it's hard to clean, Dan, it's crazy. So finally my question is, I live in a major city. And I'm trying to, I'm just wondering if there was some place we could go that wasn't creepy or slimy, but where we could, like, have a pie site without having to worry about setup or clean up, you know, like somewhere there'd be, like a large tiled room, I don't know. I mean, it's just ridiculous, but I thought I'd ask, I thought you might know because it's such a complicated fetish. I mean, it's better to me than like peeing on somebody or something seriously violent. I mean, it. I mean, it's very harmless. It's really cute, but I just don't know how to execute it. And additionally, can this be called a fetish because we've done it so rarely? I mean, is it something else? Is it just a general kink? Does the fetish go away or change or just alter into something else?

I mean, could I help shape his fetish in the future and make it less messy, you know, just to make it easier?

And then I guess my final question is, is putting really bad for someone to get deep into orifices like my vagina?

To complicate this further, I'm pregnant right now, and I don't want to get some weird infection, but I would like to still act on this fetish soon because it gets even harder to do when there's an infant that we'll have to take care of. Thank you, Dan. You are the best. Hey, Mary, it's Dan, and after listening to your phone message, I just had to speak to you directly, because it's so rare that you get to meet and speak to somebody who is actually dating the elusive Pai-Fite fetishist.
