    Hair I get. Short hair I get. How said short hair is associated with prostitutes I don't get.

    @foodandshoes: Well, I don't know about anyone else, but I got short hair because I was tired of just telling people, "YES. I am a prostitute."

    I guess I should stop saying I have a fetish for the bob haircut when I really mean that I just like that particular style.

    I'm mostly straight but usually when I fantasize about a laydee in my solo time she has a straight, sleek black bob. I've actually been trying to figure this one out for a while. Snow White? Claudia Kishi?

    I feel weird--I don't have a single fetish. I have quirks, sure, but no fetishes. Not a one.

    I think I'd understand a fetish for people named Bob than I would a fetish for a bob haircut. Which I associate more with flappers than with hookers, but whatevs.

    Nothing gets me hornier than breathing. God, I have a such an air fetish it's not even funny. I belong to this club and we get together and inhale, then exhale, then inhale again.... Go on, label me a "freak."

    Also, important to note the difference between fetish and kink. Kink is something you enjoy during sex. Fetish is something you need to actually enjoy sex.

    @LaComtesse: Hm. I'm wondering, then, what these kinds of preferences are called. I like women who can wear a short haircut well, and sometimes it makes a little flutter in my stomach. But it's not something I enjoy during sex, and certainly far from necessary.

    What's the right term?

    @#c15121666: Thanks for clarifying. It bugs me when people misuse the word. I ususally ask them if they cannot get aroused without the object.

    It usually is someone talking about a "shoe fetish" or some other thing they covet.

    @LaComtesse: False. A fetish is something (usually something unusual that most people are not turned on by) that you find arousing - not something you NEED to enjoy sex.

    A kink, on the other hand, is something that is sexual but implies deviance, like getting tied up.

    There are levels of fetishism - SOME people do need the object to become aroused. But that's a Class III Fetishist. Classes I and II are just people with a strong preference for feet, bobbed hair, etc.

    I once dated a guy whose fetish was fog! We were driving on the highway one morning and he saw a patch of fog in a field and he got crazy horny, so we stopped on the side of the road so he could "ïndulge" in something he couldn't do on a regular basis. Really my point is anything can be a fetish!

    Are we sure this didn't just start out as a typo?

    Guy1 in a Chatroom: Man, I love me some boobs.

    Guy2 in Chatroom: yeah dude, bobs are awesome.

    Guy3 in Chatroom: @Guy2: I never thought I'd find anyone else that understands my unending rapture for bobs!

    Or something?
