In today’s sex-positive age, more and more people are embracing their sexual kinks and fetishes. I am sure you all must have heard about common fetishes like—whipping, choking and bondage but there is so much more to explore in the kickville. *wink* There’s a bottomless pit of things that turn people on and some of these kinks are quite bizarre. So, I decided to explore the weirdest of sexual kinks and fetishes. Allow me to enlighten you all:
Objectophilia
To be fair, most of us spend a lot of your time using smartphones, tablets, laptops but objectophilia takes the materialistic attachment to a whole new level. In simple terms, it means developing sexual feelings towards inanimate objects. Believe it or not, many times objectophiliacs develop a monogamous relationship with the object of their desire (literally)!
Actirasty
Actirasty means sexual arousal caused by sunshine or sexual desire toward the sun. Doesn’t this give a whole new meaning to Pink’s song—Cover me in sunshine, shower me with good times? People with this particular fetish prefer outdoor sex while they enjoy a good helping of vitamin D (pun intended).
Formicophilia
I don’t know about you all, but the mere thought of incests crawling on my body is enough to make me jump out of my skin. Well, that’s not the case with everyone. Formicophilia is a sexual fetish in which people get aroused by insects. Sexual stimulation occurs when the formicophilics are getting crawled upon or nibbled by small insects, such as ants or slugs.
Infantilism
While many couples are guilty of obnoxious baby talk, infantilism adds a whole new level to it. It is a role play kink that involves one person playing the part of a baby. Infantilism can also be categorised as a form of dominance and submission play as there is an exchange of power.
Balloon Fetishism
What’s the first thing that comes to your mind when you hear the word ‘balloon’? Birthday? Clowns? Well, for some people balloons are associated with sex. Balloon fetishists use balloons as sexual toys and get aroused by the texture, feel or smell of a balloon.
Cuckolding
Cuckolding is a popular kink in BDSM (bondage, discipline, dominance, submission/sadism). At the most basic level, a cuckolding fetish is about getting turned on by watching your partner with another person. It is associated with common BDSM kinks like domination, submission, degradation and humiliation.
Katoptronophilia
Many people like to look at themselves in the mirror while masturbating or while having sex with someone else. Just FYI, while vanity gets a bad rep, there’s absolutely nothing wrong with turning yourself on with a mirror. After all, what can be better than self-love?
Which of these sexual kinks or fetish surprised you the most? ‘Coz for me, nothing is stranger than Formicophilia.
