I thought of two more things that could count as unusual: 1. The smell and taste of his breath in the morning. 2. His body odor when he’s been working and sweating. I find most everyone else’s body odor disgusting and stomach-turning, but I can’t get enough of his. _inhaling deeply_ ---

Latinas, ladies with glasses. My (now ex, I guess :rolleyes:) wife when I met her. In overalls, wearing a backwards baseball cap, painting the stairs at our house. Women who smile and mean it. ---

That reminds me of another one that’s a little weirder – guys who don’t wear glasses all the time, but wear them occasionally. I’ve got a co-worker I’ve always thought was attractive, but quickly put the thought out of my head because he’s straight and thinking otherwise is just not cool. One night a bunch of us went out to a movie and he showed up wearing eyeglasses; I couldn’t concentrate on the movie because I spent the whole night thinking “Dude, you’re _killing_ me here.” ---

Bald, in-shape, men turn me on: like–Mitch Peleggi (X-Files), Robert Picardo (ST:V), Patrick Steward (ST:TNG). 😃 My hubby shaved his head for me—yum!–but his hair grows like 1in/wk so it was a bother to maintain. ☹ Having my toes sucked–call me Duchess. 😉 Having my neck suckled. “Oh Vlad!” 😃 Van dyke beards, tigh compack buns, clean long hair, smarts w/humor. In a different vein—clean kitchens, tres organized shelves, and beds with hospital corners that you can bounce a nickel off of. ---

Here’s a non-physical one I didn’t see in the list: Women with names that have been contracted down to traditionally male names–Sam, Max, Alex… I have no idea why I love the sound of this. And no, it’s not some weird comic book/furry thing that the first names were Sam & Max. Shut up. ---

Does it have to be about people only? I have a fetish for the wind. Not a gentle breeze, but mighty winds. I love the feeling of wind in my hair and pushing against my body. It is precisely for this reason that I prefer a ceiling fans to the air con, even when the temp is 40 degree celcius. I am a wind chaser, you could say. ---

I have always had a major superheroine fetish. I also have a catfight fetish. I also like to see Attractive women getting knocked out by various means (TV or movie scenes, not real life!). Carry scenes (both cradle carries and over-the-shoulder carries) really turn me on, especially if the girl being carried is unconscious and scantily-clad. ---

None of these are true fetishes, just turn ons. Men’s feet. Short or tall men- either extreme really catches my eye for some reason. Intellegence Sense of humour. The thin, athletic, tattooed an pierced look. The Beefy, masculine lumberjack look. ---

Intellegence Sense of humour. The thin, athletic, tattooed an pierced look. The Beefy, masculine lumberjack look. The slightly geeky look, but not taken to an extreme This is just a few of mine… I have many. ( I wish my BF shared more of them…) ---

I have a strange lust/fear relationship with the concept of mannequins. One the one hand you have the end of the David Lee Roth video or California Girls. (good, very good) On the other hand you have that Twilight Zone episode that really freaks me out. Oh and that new jeans commercial where the mannequin follows the guy home. (bad, very bad) Then there are women wearing hats, the broader the brim the better. OH baby. ---

I really don’t have anything real weird as far as fetishes. I mean, your run of the mill mild bondage is always a turn on… Assertiveness is a HUGE turn on for me. Not sure if that would be a fetish. I am actually quite the independent woman, but when a man takes control of some certain yet mundane day to day situations I get weak in the knees. I also have a thing for my ass. :eek: 😃 That sounds odd. But seriously, if i’m “doing it” with a man I need some serious attention paid to it. Nothing abnormal just some great ass grabbing, slapping and rubbing. Oh, and I like my hair pulled. :o 😉 ---

Dark hair and blue eyes together, glasses, wide shoulders. Four out of four when it comes to my husband, lucky me. The question is, which came first, the husband or the ‘fetish.’ It’s been so long I don’t remember any more. ---
