I just learned that humans don’t have receptors to sense wetness. What is it that we feel when water touches our skin then?

Question

From my understanding, we’re able to feel the temperature, texture and pressure of water. And if we’re able to feel all that, what more else is there? What defines wetness and what should it feel like?

Answer 1

Air blowing on the wet spot (coolness), especially on bare skin. Clothing clinging to skin and impeding our movement.
