Fetish ... mania, fetish ... magic. Infatuation? Illusion or reality. The powerful suductiveness of fetishes! The incredible phenomenon of the fetish world. As we discussed earlier, there are endless examples of fetishes. Some of the most "popular" fetishes are leather, bondage, spanking, foot worship, lingerie and S&M, to name just a few. Naturally, there are some other terms which are viewed as "less popular" or a cross-over to the heavy side. Activities which scream of even a more bizarre nature.

However prevalent, accepted and popular forms of fetish-play in their own circles, certain fetishes such as watersports, bloodsports and edge-play carry a more negative stigma to the Scene at large.

However unbelievable to most, those fetishists who dabble in the less common arenas, take their interests just as seriously as those who favor the sweet, musky smell of leather or the tight restrictions of a laced corsette. Let's take a walk on the wild side!

In the subculture and underground, fetishes which appear more severe and outlandish will always remain an enigma to the mainstream. Fetishes which would shock the hell out of the average person. In fact most people would not even be aware that these activities exist, unless he or she were directly or indirectly involved or associated with the fetish scene. Let's go deeper.

Some of the Professionals who have earned a good reputation in the commercial D&S scene do not cross over the line and deal with what is considered the more severe, more legally, risky fetishes. They leave those questionable scenarios to the non-professional Lifestylers where play can be done in the privacy of one's home or some other private location.

Some examples of off-color risky fetishes are called watersports, bloodsports and edge-play. Watersports is a term which includes urination, defication and enemas, etc. Amazing? Who in their right mind wants to have or give a golden shower? Or a brown shower?

Sick? To most it is, however some people find it extremely erotic! Some theories say it stems from toilet training during childhood. The association is derived from the child's perception of connecting the love and affection from the mother's praise of the toilet training activities and then not being able to seperate the two, or leave it behind when crossing over to adulthood. Others say it's simply used as a form of degradation or humiliation.

Some folks attest that the type of scene play with the use of pins, knives or scalpuls is spiritual and ritualistic. These rituals are favorable practices umongst a small group of lifestylers and or the leather folks including the gay community. Workshops and demonstrations are commonly displayed about these subjects at large national Conventions which cater to specific fetishes.

The fetish for the wearing of uniforms has become increasingly popular over the last several years. Police uniforms, nurse uniforms and military uniforms have created a lot of interest in the fetish community. And fetishists spend lots of time and money collecting and adding pieces to their uniforms. These uniforms are also designed in coloful leather apparrel and in tight latex materials of shiny, shocking colors for those exciting and daring fetishists who enjoy the most outrageous of fetish costumes! Fetish clothes of this description can only be found in select speciality stores or you must have them "custom-made".

So whether you call it your fancy, or your fetish, your passion or the object of your intense desires, there are different strokes for different folks and a million and one different fetishes. So take a good look because it's true that in many cases one's obsessions or infatuations could be classified as a fetish.

What about yours?

Ahhh... fetishes.

I always got a kick out of the notion that Native Americans thought Europeans were kinksters and locked into a fetish because the priests demanded that all sex be done as "guy on top" - i.e. "missionary" (the term comes from the "missionaries" spreading the word).

They looked at Europeans funny, thinking: "Wow, that's the only way they can get off?!? That's certainly a strong fetish they have...."

Interesting.

I absolutely love accommodating fetishes! It breaks the monotony of doing body rubs/massage all the time, although I offer a variety.

It is absolutely the most enjoyable service to perform.

Mild or Wild, the world of fetish is certainly an interesting one. There are so many ways to look at it; one is from the perspective of ritual. Engaging in a fetish activity takes you out of your "normal" existence into a place apart from the everyday, the typical, the automatic routines of our lives. To be sure, it isn't necessary to engage in fetish per se, to be taken out of the ordinary and mundane. For most people, their "normal" existence is not one of fetish; for others, fetish is the main road traveled.

Whether its pure fantasy, or acting upon one's fantasies, it can be exhilarating, relaxing, or both. It is also intensely personal, in that what floats one person's boat is surely going to sink another's. The fetish community has to be one of the most accepting communities there is.

I'm more of a fantasizer than one who acts upon the thoughts, but I think that is due to the circumstances of my life and the people around me. I'm one who likes to keep things in perspective and not "out of control," anyway, though. Not one to give myself over completely to a life of dissipation. :-)

Another interesting thing is that many people, if not most, were aware of their "interests" at rather an early age, even if they were too young to understand them when they first crept into the unsuspecting, innocent mind.

Maybe one day I'll get to tell you my story...in private, of course! :-)
Have fun, play safe. Thanks, Davina, for the post.

I enjoyed reading your post QuietStorm. Thanks for sharing your interests and thoughts on the topic.

"Another interesting thing is that many people, if not most, were aware of their "interests" at rather an early age, even if they were too young to understand them when they first crept into the unsuspecting, innocent mind."

Through some of my experiences I was able to chat with a few fetishists and one of those experiences stood out to me after reading that paragraph. It was a roleplaying scene where I played a black nanny to a small white child. Needless to say, she was a naughty little nanny. ;)

Yes, and maybe one day you'll get to tell me your story. I'm always up for a good story.
