I actually know a girl who is big into death and probably would enjoy being killed during sex. She always takes pictures of herself in ‘death poses’ and paints morbid pictures with her own blood that she extracted with exacto knives. That seems like a fetish that could only be really acted upon once though… ---

Boo, I forget to mention that I love looking at those things myself. I have seen some pretty sick and crazy stuff out there. It doesn’t turn me on (usually), but I really like looking at them. ---

Agreed, it is interesting to note all the stuff that is out there that turns people on. We’re such varied creatures. ---

Taken with a grain of salt, the portal of evil is a brilliant place to come across some of the weirder and more ‘out there’ fetishes and kinks that are floating around the place. If you’re interested solely in what people are into, then igoring the PoE forums and just browsing their ‘featured site’ list is really… Er… illuminating. I like to read about what others are into and why as well, though some of the things I’ve seen have scarred me a bit, I think. ---

> [@Big Bad Voodoo Lou](#): > > Personally, I think **DocCathode** is full of it. I’m shocked it took this long for somebody to say that. In retrospect, I shouldn’t have included the Jew fetish. I really have met a few women who feel the same way about all things Jewish that Gomez Addams felt about French. The clown story was meant to be extreme, but believable until the last line. Are there clown fetishists? Do a search on “Knockers the Clown” or check out her LiveJournal. Her username is Duckydoo. Bondage, hot wax, edgeplay, abrasion are all long established parts of the s&m scene. E-stim, is very real. But, I thought my use of electric sex toy to restart a human heart would tell every one that I was joking. I never intended these stories to be taken seriously. **Hillbilly Queen** Quiet? Mild mannered? Dull? Never! ---

I’m just generally kinky, without any particular fetish. Well . . . a fondness for men in skirts, but that’s just an extension of my preference for effeminate men, which is an extension of my dominant tendancies. I like reading about other people’s kinks and fetishes because it reminds me that there are other weird people out there. ---

> [@hillbilly queen](#): > > One of my male Ebay customers had a fetish for women’s fuzzy sweaters. Not, women _wearing_ fuzzy sweaters, but the sweaters themselves. Plus, he worked at Macy’s. I wonder if he got the job so he’d have access to the fuzziness. Have you seen Tim Burton’s Ed Wood film, Ed Wood had a very similar fetish for Women’s Angora Sweaters. ---

I have the mildest fetish ever. I just really like to hear my partner say my name during sex. My actual name, mind you…if anyone called me by any of my various usernames, I think I’d die laughing. Might be interesting to try out, though. ---

> [@DocCathode](#): > > I never intended these stories to be taken seriously. Only reason I had to doubt your validity was that multiple fetishes were indulged in. But of course, there was simply the chance that you were someone who fed off others kinks. But most certainly such people do exist. The German cannibals come to mind as another instance of fetishes leading to rather extreme results. Never heard of a Jew fetish–another one to add to the books ☹ ---

By far the ookiest fetish I’ve ever read about is the lots-of-acne fetish. (yech!) Not that I’m a fan of the proverbial German Scheisse Video. ---

There are some fetishes that I find gross, but at least they’re somewhat understandable in that they involve someone’s naughty bits. But the stepping-on-cellphones fetish at [www.smashmyphone.com](http://www.smashmyphone.com) is inexplicable. (I’m still not sure if it’s real or not) The link is entirely safe for work, since there’s no nudity or any sort of sexual content at all.
