A word that means as “revelling being dirty”.

What is that feeling when you do camping without a shower? If you’re consuming a crab with your hands and pulling apart, do this immediately? Why do you stand out in the rain?

I’m looking for a word like “hedonism”, “debauchery”, but with less sexual connotations and more emphasis on actual dirt. “Carefree” or “primal” would usually fit in this context, but not effectively.

To wallow TFD

to roll about or lie in water, mud, dust, etc. to break the TFD for a year.To deal with TFD first, wretch it out, then you wallow it. How do I indulge oneself?!

Just one word to describe the many activities normally not considered considered genteel? I would say ” fun ” Doesn’t have what is called dirt but neither does “pulling apart and eating a crab with your hands” or at least I hope dirt isn’t involved in this specific activity.

I have to agree that a lot of the examples you gave are what I consider fun. Thanks for sharing.

I really like what you said, “like a pig in mud”, and I think that’s the best part.
