I knew a guy that had a garbage fetish. I don't know what you call it. Sex in dumpsters and stuff.

Dodai, that is the BEST list of tags I've ever seen. Jack Sprat = Awesome.

ETA: if by "best" I mean slightly scary and funny all at once, which I might.

we had our very own pantyhose fetishist here on Jez and they got booted! Or they could've been some sort of viral advertiser who linked everything back to pantyhose (I asked Hortense what her opinion was - maybe it fell through the cracks but I am still keen to know which she thinks it was!)

@ULTRAPRISON!:that was the one! when they got disemvowelled, I checked out their comment history and it went on & on like that. Fascinating either way, really: if it was a Leggs rep, what a weird fuckin' way to advertise, and if it was a fetish thing, boy, were they obsessed.

It's a fetish to be attracted to a very large woman, but not very tiny ones? hmmmm

@queenieinmanhattan: I think in some cases it is very big, as in tall, women - but since you can't actually find 50 ft women, it becomes a hard fetish to act on.

@thesciencegirl: It's probably a fetish to be attracted to very tiny ones too, just not the fetish he's most interested in. Isn't pretty much anything a fetish, if it gets to the point of fixation?

@thesciencegirl: I have heard of macrophillia before and I think it has less to do with the actually size of the woman and more to do with the size of the woman in relation to her partner. The man wants to be dominated. If he is a 3 feet tallk than a 5 foot tall woman would fit the bill. I don't think it's specifically about weight.
BUT your question is still a valid one.

"acrotomophilia/apotemnophilia — attraction to amputees and the fascination with being an amputee."

This. This has caused me pain. I don't personally have this fetish, but somehow in my search for something else, a DAK (Double Above The Knee) amputation video (a guy who did it to himself) showed up in my youtube "Recommended". Now, I didn't know what DAK was at the time, so let me tell you, I got all the way to the BUCKETS OF DRY ICE before I realized what was happening.

That said, I have steadily and increasingly been amazed at the truth to: If it exsist, there is a fetish for it.

that will take you to the search page, not to the video, but it's the first one (I think) or similar. it wasn't that clearly titled when I saw it.

@queenieinmanhattan: It is getting increasing amounts of attention lately. Apparently some people who have it compare it to the feeling you're in the wrong body - not always necessarily sexualized. People will describe it as feeling that their right arm, for example, shouldn't be there, isn't part of their body, etc. It is extremely rare for a doctor to agree to a non-medical amputation (which this is generally classified as), so some people will go to extremes to force doctors to amputate - cut of circulation, severely burn themselves, try to crush bones, etc. to make amputation a requirement.

@SparklyTempest: this can be a symptom of brain injury. one case study I read described a woman who, after a stroke, kept falling out of bed in the hospital. when the nurses asked her why, she said it was because she was trying to kick 'Tony' out of bed. 'Tony' was the whole left side of her body.

Actually, can we have hemanphilia? I know they can be jackass cads but I srsly love it when you get a giant, muscular, aggressive, testosterone-pumping He-Man. It just turns me on, probably because I tend to be an alpha female.
I wouldn't marry one, but I wouldn't kick one out of bed.

When I presented a Photoshop-modified picture of the man without his beard, she no longer recognized him. In fact, she was repelled.

that right there is what freaks me out about bearded guys. I whole heartedly love good facial hair, but what if I don't like what's underneath? damn you hipsters, stop being so beardedly attractive.

I've always wondered how people reconcile being the object of a fetish. Like, I know there are some great Asian writers who have talked about this. But if I were an amputee or a large woman, who knew that my partner was with me due to fetishizing me, I think I would have a problem with it.

On the other hand, I guess attraction basically is a form of fetishization. Since we are attracted to certain features, body types, etc.

@laureltreedaphne: See, for me it would depend. At least if someone fetishized you, you'd be sure that they were comfortable with that aspect of your body. Like, being morbidly obese or missing a limb can be considered pretty unattractive by the mainstream, so I can see how having a partner who is sexually aroused by that aspect of you might be comforting since you know that they're not with you in spite of your body.

@laureltreedaphne: I tend to think there's a seperation of sorts, that a partner can be attracted to you because of something (be it weight, lack of limbs, etc) in addition to many other qualities where a fetish, even within a relationship, focuses on a particular thing within that moment.

@Zombie MissSkittles:

Yeah, I think that makes a ton of sense. But I also wonder if you feel like they're only with you due to that part of your body and nothing else - which wouldn't be a nice feeling, you know? I think it's a very complicated set of emotions.
