Interesting that you mention how some viewers/follows assume a sense of ownership over your channel. Long before internet, TV, or even movies, the only interactions we knew were person-to-person. Along come all these media, and in some ways, we haven't really adapted. Someone on-camera talks to the camera as if they are having a personal conversation with the viewer, and the viewer immediately feels like they are the only one being spoken to, even when it's being distributed/broadcast to an audience of thousands or even millions. If we let ourselves forget that we are not the only one being spoken to by the on-camera person, we get fooled into thinking it's directed soley at us, and believe that we each have our own personal relationship with someone who actually wouldn't know us from "Adam".

Maybe these folks are just a little over-enthusiastic, and forgetting their manners... what if someone worded it as "would you consider wearing..." instead of "you should wear..."?

If you read the requests as suggestions, are they things you'd actually consider doing?

For what it's worth, I like your approach ("form of art" / "self-expression"); whatever you do, that is something I hope will not change.

Thank you for your support, it helps to know that I am not alone.

I look at my videos that are professionally done (like the one with me wearing a fancy hat and stockings) as a form of art, my own self-expression. It is personal, it's part of who I am.

I may not openly say it on my channel, but the shoes that are used for wetlook are shoes that either got cracked heels or some other damage that no longer makes these shoes safe to wear. You may note in my latest video with the hat and stockings that I am hardly putting any weight on one of the heels from the suede boots.

You know, in Vancouver we get informal wetlook sessions almost on daily basis because of the rain. Clothes doesn't get ruined just from getting wet (as long as it is not real fur, let's say).

A lot of people are just self-centered. I am surpised when I get messages telling me "you SHOULD wear only ... and not ... ". Obviously some think that I do my channel for them only.

My friends,

I am sad to say that after I started exploring wetlook on my channel, I am beginnign to get a lot of upset messages from "non-wetlookers" about how stupid it is what I am doing. Some say it politely that they hate to see clothing and shoes ruined by water (not true, our pool has saline solution that is not chlorine based).

Does anybody have any suggestions how to explain this to others?
