Topic: Fetishists


In the News (Thu 16 Feb 12)

  
  Background and Significance
It is the purpose of this study to re-examine the claim of an increased incidence of abnormal EEG in fetishists, to assess the effect of the serotonin selective reuptake inhibitor fluoxetine on fetishistic sexual outlet, and to explore the possibility of a relationship between the electroencephalographic and pharmacological studies of fetishism.
In fetishistic transvestism, the donning of a garment is not an attempt to identify oneself as a member of the morphologically opposite sex, but an attempt to possess more fully the fetish object, and by extension, the person with whom the object is more conventionally associated.
Thus the symbolic mechanism of fetishistic transvestism is a sort of sympathetic magic by which the fetishist is allowed to possess a human partner without having to submit to her, an elaborate invention for the purpose of having one's cake and eating it too.

 Amputee Devotees from Cripworld.com - the Community..
Fetishists, on the other hand are of the opinion that "most people are repulsed by amputees, but not me" thereby trying to insinuate that amputees would be overlooked by the general population as potential mates/friends/lovers etc.
Fetishists, however, are extremely dangerous and are suffering from a severe mental illness and are to be avoided at all costs.
Fetishists can usually be identified by their furtive methods, refusal to leave you alone, harrassment and forced, unsolicited and/or surreptitious photography.

 Shoe fetishism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Shoe fetishists often fixate on extreme shoes which are designed as fetishwear, although fixation on typical high-street shoes, or other types of shoes, is also common.
Shoe fetishists often fixate on stiletto heeled shoes and boots, where the stiletto heel is eroticised in itself.
Many male shoe fetishists experience great sexual satisfaction from masturbating while holding the shoes of a woman or a man. The act of secretly opening a woman's or man's closet and (unknown to him/her) taking down her shoes from their resting place and then masturbating with them can be extremely arousing to some men.

 Nylon Feet and Heels - a foot fetishists paradise
In the true sense of a fetish, the foot (or shoe) became an idealised object which the fetishist was content to contemplate or reverently touch.
The fetish object, however, does not necessarily have to be an inanimate object, as is the case with foot fetishists or breast fetishists.
By that token, it could be suggested that fetishists do not necessarily reject intimate relationships, but instead, “excessive introversion causes fetishism and that having a fetish perpetuates social withdrawal because trying to attract sexual partners becomes unnecessary” (Weinberg).

 The Watchman Expositor: Christians Celebrate Victory Over Fetishists in Benin
Enraged fetishists tore down the sign at Azoue'-Cada Baptist Church and publicly demanded that Francois reimburse them for the snakes.
Government officials told the fetishists they had no right to do the things they had been doing to the Christians or say the things they had been saying.
The mayor, who had in the past favored the fetishists, told them to write an authorization and that he would sign it.

 Why more men than women fetishists?
While sexologists estimate that only one in one hundred fetishists is female, some fetish-oriented websites, like Balloon Buddies, find the average more like one in thirty, and the gap is closing rapidly.
The primary reason why sexologists’ estimates are inaccurate is a cultural one: fetishistic women are far less likely to visit a sex clinic -- and be counted in these statistics -- than men are.
Although cultural factors are most likely to contribute to the differences in how women and men express their sexuality, it’s biological factors certainly play some role in the statistical difference between male and female tendencies to fetishism.

 Sneezing fetishism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The sneeze fetish is a sexual fetish that is characterized by a person's interest, pleasure or sexual attraction to other’s sneezing, and/or a person’s own sneezing.
The reasons for this fascination are difficult to explain for the fetishist; however, some reasons for the fetishist's attraction to sneezing are conjectured to be in the vulnerability of the person sneezing, or the parallel to the sexual orgasm.
There are a lot of sneeze fetishists that enjoy the nurturing side of the sneeze, in that they get to take care of someone if they are sick or having allergies.

 More Theory: The Britney Twisty Puzzle Contention
The goal is to allow both to exist, guard against the fans from accidently stumbling in to a fetishist discussion group, and (probably) increase the difficulty for the fetishists to find a fans group.
The fans are unlikely to accidently end up hanging out with a bunch of fetishists because they are not connected to the adult network that the fetishists exist in.
Similarly, adolescent fan social networks are inaccessible to the fetishists; they would find it difficult to know when and where the fans meet to trade gossip.

 Age regression - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The fetish is generally not well accepted in mainstream society, and age regression fetishists typically keep their desires a secret, often even from their lovers.
Age progression is less common as a fetish than age regression, but there are fetishists who enjoy the idea of a child or teen suddenly accelerated into a sexually mature adult and forced to cope with their new body and new feelings, or of an adult aged to the point of helplessness and feebleness.
There are also some age regression fetishists within the furry community who enjoy the idea of furry characters being regressed, or human characters being transformed into baby animals.

 The foot fetish is the most common of all fetishes, so common, in fact, that it should probably be considered part of ...   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
Trampling, crushing and kicking are elaborated play techniques for some foot fetishists, who wish to surrender to their partner's powerful foot-as-weapon.
In the crush fetish, the foot fetishist wishes to see the foot used to stomp on a kill a living creature, often a stand-in for the fetishist him- or herself.
As long as the fetishist remembers never to treat their lover as "just a foot", and to develop an enthusiasm for a variety of lovemaking practices, strong and long-lasting emotional relationships between foot fetishists and non-fetishist partners are quite possible.

 Words Without Borders -> Fetishists Anonymous
According to psychological studies, fetishists substitute a part for the whole; a foot, a pair of eyes or breasts, an article of clothing, or some other object comes to represent the whole, and that part or object is mystically adored, like a divinity by the faithful.
As fetishists, we know the object of our devotion is both new and very old, buried in the history of time.
I know I’m a fetishist, but until that moment I hadn’t realized he was slightly paranoid.

 For blasphemy fetishists
A blasphemy fetishist is a person who gets sexually aroused by blasphemy, and who feels a longterm, frequent, ongoing need for that particular turn-on.
Blasphemy fetishists seem to be in the minority among theistic Satanists (those who seriously worship Satan as a deity).
One of my reasons for writing this article is to encourage blasphemy fetishists to form a community with a responsible attitude, similar to the BDSM community and assorted other fetish communities.

 Modern Muslima: Scammed! (Cyber Scams Aimed at Muslim Women)
There are two types of Hijab Fetishists out there: the kind who "have fun" simply looking at pictures of veiled women (and who build websites and swap veiled photographs), and the kind who enjoy writing stories and initiating correspondence about veiling.
They try to get Muslim women to write things or send photographs that they would never knowingly share with a man, much less a man (or woman) who is sexually aroused by veiling.
The Circumcision Fetishist seems to possess a fair amount of knowledge on what various Islamic sources have said about female circumcision, which is why it seems that some poor sisters have taken him at face value.

 Discovery Health :: Fetishism
Inanimate object fetishists often collect the object of their favor, and may go to great lengths, including theft, to acquire just the "right" addition for their collection.
Although the list of objects that fetishists can use for sexual gratification is inexhaustible, among the more common inanimate objects are panties, bras, slips, stockings or panty hose, negligees, shoes, boots and gloves.
The worn object does not serve as a symbolic reminder of the former owner, however, because it is the object that the fetishist relates to, not the person attached to it.

 News & Opinion: Up With Smoke (The Boston Phoenix . 02-23-99)
As one smoking fetishist from upstate New York wrote me in an e-mail: "The biggest turn-on: Hands free, dangle, cig straight, cheeks hollowed followed by a nostril exhale, with the cig still straight in the mouth, and her hands still away from her face (strange, huh!)."
And smoking fetishists tend to be articulate; Sam, an enthusiastic reader of other people's sightings, says that part of the reason that he does not share his own is that he feels his writing abilities aren't up to snuff.
Every fetishist I spoke to said that he was aware of his peculiar sexual proclivity by the time he was 11 or 12 years old; increasing exposure simply helps put a name to a long-standing feeling.

 In Pursuit of Mysteries » Blog Archive » Peak Oil Collapse Fetishists
Anyway…back to my point…the vision espoused by these proponents of Peak Oil-philia (Ophelia?) is something that I can feel drawn to but I do feel a certain some of the millenarian in these.
Sort of the same thing when people speak about the Singularity aka “The Rapture of the Nerds.” While these people will claim that they aren’t apocalyptic fetishists (and do say this), there is still a strong element of this to their thinking.
It doesn’t mean that it might not very well happen this time (though I, personally, think a low-resource fascist military state is a more likely result) but to feel fondly for the horrible death of more than 85% of the world is a pretty disgusting thing.

It is the home of the NYCSC Scarf Fetishist Society, members of which can be identified by their tendency to wrap themselves in numerous Celtic scarves while watching Celtic broadcasts at the Parlour.
Prominent members include Bill and Tom Hendry, Steve O'Brien and Patsy Keane all of whom can be seen sporting Celtic Scarves of various types ranging from straight forward green and white stripes to accurate renditions of Bart Simpson and various members of the South Park cast in Celtic jerseys.
Except that is if they are of a Rangers disposition in which case the NYCSC reserves the right of "habeus corpus" which generally involves the removal of said body for deposit in the Parlour's various trash recycling devices.

 It War With Their Bodies, They Seek to Sever Limbs
We have reported on the amputation fetishists before as the extreme example of the body piercing and mutilation trend of today's decadent society.
While this description doesn't cover to fetishists who go to the extreme and cut off their arms and legs, it does exemplify how mutilation cronies see the practice of amputation as just one more form of "body modification."
Alex predicts that twenty years or so from now criticizing these sick practices will be against the law, and that people will be marrying cockroaches (which will receive equal protection from voiced criticism and equal rights from their new marital status).

Lee’s diaper fetishist network in Indiana is one of many such groups operating throughout the United States.
One can only wonder when “Baby Pride” parades will become as commonplace as “Gay Pride” parades and diaper fetishists will be lobbying to be included as a sexual orientation under proposed federal hate crime laws.
Even though there are literally hundreds of web sites dedicated to the normalization of diaper fetishism, there seems to be none devoted to helping these individuals overcome this sexual abnormality.

 Luminous Landscape Forum > Hardware fetishists...
May 6 2006, 10:31 PM Hardware fetishists are righteous, especially since there are so many.
I am therefore surprised that so-called 'gear-heads' or 'hardware fetishists', terms which are even more insulting than any implication that it's the camera that makes the photographer, should not be aware that a camera is fundamentally a tool.
Anyone who is interested in the craft or art of photography, whichever way you want to look at it, is likely to have an interest in the equipment used, f stop, shutter speed and ISO etc, and that seems to me a perfectly healthy curiosity.

 Fetishists in relationships
The saddest stories I hear are from deviants who have spent their whole lives believing that they were 1) the only person in the world with this particular kink and therefore unlovable and 2) somehow fundamentally incapable of having a "normal" relationship.
Perfect sexual matches -- where a ponygirl meets her perfect pony master, or two balloon fetishists get together -- may be rare, but they do exist.
I have also met many happy couples made up of two people with different kinks.

Former Vermont Governor Howard Dean had so much in the way of cash, endorsements, and apparent momentum that the idea of going ahead with the actual voting seemed superfluous.
Just as the Internet produced the one-time ascendancy of Howard Dean, it has also given election fetishists a means of expression in the form of political fan fiction.
While most of the material appears to revolve around the candidates themselves, behind the scenes characters are also in wide use.
