36 Fetishes Every Man Should Know (21-30)
Continuing….
22. Diapers
The fetishization of "adult babies" is hard to separate from the perverse practice of acting like a baby, which many adults enjoy and generally involves wearing diapers. The terms get complicated here. Wearing diapers would be considered a perversion, but the erotic stimulation of diapers in general, regardless of whether you wear them, turns them into fetish objects. This fetish may or may not be related to feces.
23. Piercings
Many men have fetishes for piercings, also known as "piercism," and as
a result, they may also enjoy the body modification of piercing the skin, which some take to extremes. I have a fetish for Prince Alberts: circular piercings that go through the head of the penis, but personally, I don't have one, which means I enjoy this fetish but do not practice the custom of piercing myself or someone else for pleasure.
24. Scars
Scars are very sexy. They relate to the icon of our culture of the tough warrior, the battered cowboy, the soldier wounded in battle. For some people, they are extremely exciting. These individuals have fetishes for scars and may sometimes choose to intentionally scar themselves to have a feature they find attractive. Not to insist on a distinction, but doing so would likely be considered a perversion of body modification. Scars as erotic stimuli are fetishes.
25. Stuffed Toys
You will never look at your niece's collection of stuffed animals the same way again. Some people get sexually excited by stuffed toys; this fetish is actually more common than you think.
26. Balloons
I didn't believe this was a real fetish until I looked it up. Balloon fetishes, which are very real, seem to be related to the tension of them popping, a tension that some find very erotic.
27. Socks
There are fetishes for practically every type of clothing, but socks and stockings undoubtedly take
a close second behind underwear as the most commonly fetishized garments. Just as I love smelling a guy's used underwear, some men love smelling a pair of used socks.
28. Beard/Facial Hair Fetish
You know that shaving tools and buzz cuts have attached fetishes. Beards and body hair should be less surprising, especially these days. Beards are so sexually charged and erotically idealized among today's scruffy gay male populations that one might forget the fact that beards are still, technically, fetish objects.
29. Classrooms
“You've been a very naughty boy. You have to stay after class for a
difficult lesson.”
Most of us should be familiar by now with the fetishes surrounding teachers, desks, rulers, blackboards, and other classroom items. Some kinksters may explore these fetishes by replicating a classroom scenario for their own form of interrogation, torture, and role play.
30. Blood
With all the vampire romance and gore porn that make up the current literary and cinematic landscape, it's no surprise that blood is an increasingly popular fetish. A small number of perverse sexual practices allow you to explore this fetish with little risk of long-term injury (piercings, spanking, etc.), but they are not free from the risk of transmitting HIV, hepatitis C, and other STIs. As a rule of sex and life, if you see blood, it usually means something is wrong. Therefore, blood play is a difficult fetish to explore safely. The kink community does not endorse harmful and unsafe sexual practices.
I’m realizing, writing this post, that I’m more of a fetishist than I thought… and you?
