Wetaish is an English-language online and print magazine focusing on erotica, sexuality, and sensuality. Wetaish has been active since January 2019, when its founders launched the magazine's website and social media platforms. As stated on its website, "We believe that sex can be beautiful, and that it should be approached with curiosity and respect." The magazine features artistic photography, poetry, short stories, nonfiction essays, and reviews related to sexuality, pleasure, erotica, and intimacy. It also includes interviews with artists and creators who explore these themes through their work. One of the unique features of Wetaish is that it showcases diverse artistic styles, including abstract paintings, surrealist sculptures, and avant-garde fashion. In addition to presenting images of human bodies, Wetaish often presents imagery of animals, plants, and other natural elements to create a sense of sensuality and exploration beyond just human sexuality.
The word 'wetaish' derives from the Arabic language and means 'desire'. This name reflects Wetaish's commitment to exploring human desire as a form of artistic expression rather than titillation or voyeurism. The magazine seeks to celebrate the beauty of human sensuality with sophistication and intellectualism, attracting readers interested in exploring these topics intellectually and emotionally. In each issue, Wetaish curates a collection of works designed to provoke thought and inspire imagination. For example, one recent feature included an interview with a photographer whose work focused on capturing the fluidity between masculinity and femininity, while another featured an artist who used fabric and lighting to evoke sensual emotions.
While Wetaish is not necessarily an adult publication, its content can be sexually explicit. As such, some readers may find it challenging or uncomfortable. However, Wetaish strives to do more than simply shock or offend - it seeks to challenge norms and push boundaries with respect for its audience. By blending eroticism with contemporary culture, Wetaish encourages its readers to think critically about sexuality and relationships. It also provides a platform for artists and writers to express themselves freely without fear of censorship or judgment. As the magazine continues to grow, it hopes to expand its reach and impact on popular culture by continuing to explore the intersection of art, society, and intimacy.
