My friend popped this question to me a couple weeks ago and this started a long discussion/argument about this question. So I thought that I might ask you guys.
Is it only when you leave water that you are wet?
Here is one view:
“Water is a compound of Oxygen and Hydrogen. They are on your skin but underwater the water particles are still in there molecular pattern and when you get out some of the water particles are on you and slowly escape into the air. “
So the body in the water isn’t really wet until out of the water?
Jacqueline Castles, writes:
“Water isn’t wet. Wetness is a description of our experience of water; what happens to us when we come into contact with water in such a way that it impinges on our state of being. We, or our possessions, ‘get wet’.”
So considering both sides of the argument. What do you think? Is water wet?
