Welcome to PLASTER OF PARadISe


Who this page is for

This website is dedicated to those who love to wear, or want to wear, full-length, hip-to-toe plaster or fiberglass casts on their legs, one or both.  We are a small group, but we are international.  We are as average as everyone else in most other ways.  Many of us have friends, spouses and relatives who have no idea that we have a powerful urge to wrap casting bandages around our legs, and after they have hardened, to go through life with these wonderful new bodies.

If you don't understand this, you are at the wrong page. If you do, please read on.  This page is designed as a resource and home base for you.

So, welcome.  Think of this as our private clubhouse, with a handicapped entrance.  If you have lived a life in loneliness, thinking no one else on earth could possibly understand the beauty of a casted limb, we hope you have a wonderful time poking around.  We're glad you found us.


Who we are

People who love casts are called "casters".  Whether you have worn them, are wearing one now, wear them whenever you want to, or just enjoy seeing others in casts, you are a caster.

The only thing you can tell about a caster is that he/she loves casts.  There is no other apparent common denominator.  We are men, women, young, old, lawyers, janitors, Americans, Swedes.  Being a cast-lover is something which hits randomly.  There is no cure; only relief.


It's a fetish, but not always a sexual one

Part of the shame some of us feel is that we think of casting as a sexual fetish, right down there with leather goods and s&m.  Although for many of us there is a sexual element to casting, it is not always primarily a sexual desire.  Sure, sex can be wonderful in casts, but so is toddling through the mall on crutches.  Sex is just one of many physical experiences enhanced by the wearing of casts.

For this writer, cast-wearing is a fetish, but not a sexual fetish.  I am writing this introduction on the heels (actually, rubber walking cast heels) of a very wonderful adventure wherein I wore two full leg casts for a week.  Wearing casts did not make me feel horny, did not make me crave sexual release.  Rather, it was as though my body was complete at last.  I felt as though I looked as good as I possibly could.  I was confident, happy, and belonged wherever I happened to be.   I was wearing my very best outfit, and felt like a million bucks.

I spent too many years wishing that what I wanted most was something more mainstream.  Part of this longing came from being convinced that no one else on earth was as weird as me, or could ever understand why I love casts so.

If this is your first time here, you should immediately see that you are far from alone.  The purpose of this site is to reassure you that you are not a freak; it's just that the minority you're in is very small.  But casting (done right) is harmless.  The biggest danger is embarrassment.  This site also seeks to inspire you to wear casts, and connect you with instructions and cast supplies when you are ready to have your cast adventure.


This is not an adult site

In no way is this presented as an adult site.  If you are a caster, it is not by choice.  If you are not interested in casts, nothing on this site will change your mind.  As we learn more about what we love, hopefully PLASTER OF PARadISe can provide some insight as to how we came to be this way.


What you want is casts, not fractures

If you are under 18, you are probably living at home and are convinced that the only way you can get the cast you crave is by jumping out of a window or stepping in front of a bus.  But there are three basic problems with this approach:

From the age of 14, when I first became a cast-wanter, until about 20, I was constantly plotting some kind of leg-breaking injury until I matured enough to realize I didn't really want a broken bone, just the cast it necessitated.


So welcome to PLASTER OF PARadISe

There is no guilt or embarrassment here.  You have suffered too many years of loneliness and shame.  Now it's time to put on some casts and have some fun!


What's available to you

PLASTER OF PARadISe specializes in serving and inspiring men and women in their quest to wear casts.  If you have no interest in being casted, but enjoy seeing others in casts, there is still a lot of material here for you, but there are other cast sites which are more geared to voyeuristic casters.

There are dozens of cast and brace sites.  To see a complete listing anytime, and the dates each was last updated, check out my Links Page.

There are hundreds and hundreds of pictures of people wearing casts and braces.  Over 700 exist on PLASTER OF PARadISe alone.  Check them out on my Pictures Page.

Dozens of Personal Ads from other casters who want to share a cast adventure.  If you like, you can even run your own free Personal Ad, using a confidential nickname and EMail address to keep some distance between you and correspondents until trust is built.

One of the hugest achievements of the cast movement is the easy availability of professional, hospital-quality cast and brace supplies by mail order.  Cast and brace supplies are, unfortunately, expensive, but if you've been disappointed by hobbyist supplies in the past and are ready to seal your legs (or whatever) in comfortable rocks, check out our Cast and Brace Supplies Page.

Want to get online and chat with other cast-lovers?  It's a wonderful feeling being able to talk to others about this as though it were the most normal thing in the world.  You can get instructions and download the necessary software at the IRC Page.

Although I have been sadly remiss in developing the text sections of my site, there is still some good material on the Instructions Page, the Anecdotes and Experiences Page, and the Stories and Fantasies Page.

I'm sure there is a lot more I could do to make this a better site, but I spend all of my spare time working on it, and it will continue to grow year after year.  If you have anything to contribute, please do, otherwise this site will be going through some lean times.
