What would you choose?

For me, it’s Chinese foot binding. Really, really, grotesque.

Ditto. And I’d like to add the fetish of an adult putting on diapers and acting like a baby and having another adult change the diaper etc. Yuck.

There’s a lot to choose from, but enjoying being vomited on gets my vote.

Are you asking for the least erotic or the grossest sexual fetish? For me any fetish that isn’t mine is equally not erotic but some are a lot grosser than others.

Oh, this isn’t what I thought it was going to be.

Something like suspension – very definitely not my cup of tea, but I can see, intellectually, what the appeal would be to someone who was into that.

Here I thought it was going to be the one that you can’t understand who could possibly find this erotic. Like bread, for example. Or mittens.

Adult Baby/Diaper Lover fetishism. I have never, ever, ever understood this, and…and well, I’m extremely sexually diverse.

> **[Paraphilic infantilism](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paraphilic_infantilism)**
>
> Paraphilic infantilism, also known as autonepiophilia and adult baby, is a sexual fetish that involves role-playing a regression to an infant-like state. Paraphilic infantilism is a form of ageplay. People who practice paraphilic infantilism are often colloquially referred to (by themselves and others) as "adult babies", or "ABs".
> Behaviors may include things such as wearing childish clothes, wearing or using diapers, cuddling with stuffed animals, drinking from a bottle or sucking on a pacifier...

I get emetophilia, I get suspension, and hell I even get coprophilia – but diapers?

Sploshing.

I suspect it’s the same dysfunctionals who got sick of playing furry and are looking for a new way not to have sex with other.

Japanese women used to blacken their teeth. Japanese men found it alluring. I find the mere idea of it offputting in the extreme.

I totally read this as “anal suspension” the first time, and thought, “Hmmm, I know about suspension…but ANAL suspension?!”

I get aroused if a woman writes C++ code and then reads Scientific American to me. But, haven’t found anyone who’ll do it for me yet.

Acrotomophilia is a fetishism for amputees. Amotemnophilia, a/k/a body identity disorder, is a fetish about _becoming_ an amputee.

I was just gonna say. Although I would narrow it down even further to coprophagia.

Are all of these really fetishes? IIRC a fetish is not just a kink - it’s something you can’t get off without.

While I’m sure there are people out there who get aroused by suspension, I don’t think it’s necessarily sexual at all. Most people either consider it spiritual or just fun.

The fetish I find the least erotic - if it’s even true - is the one where the people HAVE to see a car wreck before they can have sex.

I am baffled by “crush freaks.” No stretch of my imagination finds anything erotic about watching a person stomp on an insect or other small animal.
