The two that always kind of squicked me out were “vore” (sexual fantasies about being eaten alive, often by giant women) and “adult baby” stuff. I can’t even imagine why somebody would want to dress up in a diaper and have the person of their dreams change their diaper and clean up after them and powder their bum… ::shudder:: Personally, I enjoy reading about or watching whatever hero I like in a novel or movie getting beaten up or otherwise rendered unconscious, be tortured, be very ill, or go through some other physically harrowing ordeal (preferably in an older style where the description isn’t too gory/realistic, but blood, scars and similar are great). It’s weird, because I’m a mellow person and am uncomfortable hurting bugs (the only way I’d hurt a person is if he threatened me, a loved one, or one of my cats) but I love watching my heroes getting the crap kicked out of them. Has to be a guy, though. I get nothing from watching women get beaten up or suffering, even if they’re my favorite character in the book or movie. ---

If you also like the part where they limp back to their friend or lover and are cleaned up, hugged, and put to bed, then you like hurt/comfort. Yeah. I’m into that too. No, I’m not sure I can explain it. ---

A few years back the police in a small town near here broke up a ring of castration fans. I don’t remember the details but it involved guys who travelled here (after meeting on the internet) to voluntarily be castrated. And a refrigerator with bottles of preserved testicles. ---

> [@Raguleader](#): > > And to add to the boot fetish, at Texas A&M University, the ROTC cadets there wear hand-made leather riding boots as part of their uniform. I found that seeing the female cadets with the boots was quite inspiring. 😉 There was one chick in the Corps when I was at A&M that instead of the normal male-style jodhpurs and boots, wore some sort of long skirt with the senior boots. I remember being quite interested, even if her face was bad enough to scare flies off of dog shit. ---

Yeah, the female seniors have a long skirt that goes with the boots, as opposed to the shorter ones worn by Freshman, Sophomores, and Juniors (or, if you prefer: fish, Pissheads, and Butts). I’m pretty sure they have the longer skirts because the boots + the regular skirt would = very slutty looking attire. And yeah, I’m a big fan of the boots+long skirt uniforms too. 😃 Also, hey, another Aggie Doper. Whoop.😃 ---

> [@kidneyfailure](#): > > I know this isn’t so weird, but I get turned on by women in uniforms. Yes, I know, fairly normal, but I just love a woman in a handsome uniform: policewomen, female soldiers. Yum!

No, I’m not sure I can explain it. I like hurt/comfort, but the weird thing about it is that I don’t really like it if it turns sexual. Romantic is fine, just not sexual. Sexual fetishes without sex. 😛 And I like it just as much if the comforter is male (and not in a gay relationship with the hurtee) or if it’s a female. I don’t like Mary Sue stories, though–it’s hard to find good H/C that’s not also horribly "Mary-Sue"ey, at least in my experience. ---

Ever played The Sims Online? I did. I was one of those sad, horny housewives who got no lovin’ from the lump on the couch, so I would control these little 3D people and sit in what amounted to a bunch of virtual chat rooms with other people. People would spend amazing amounts of time developing software patches to turn their sim naked, and then figure out game glitches to help them simulate sex on screen. Heck, I used to let people pay me to teach them all the glitches - and quite frankly, I made a lot of in-game money doing it. People also spent a lot of time cybering - and I would often sit back and read line after line of text of people’s fantasies. It was fascinating. Like the guy who wanted me to have sex with him and his dog and described his dog’s nails clawing my back as it humped me. It squicked me out - but I was so amazed that someone would type it out it became like that car wreck you can’t look away from. I finally had to click away when it became him humping his dog while his dog humped me. If I had known his real name, I would have had animal cruelty check on his dog. ---

I have had for as long as I can remember a smoking fetish. Though I have never smoked cigarettes regularly myself all my girlfriends were smokers. I would try and get them to smoke at apropriate naked times though I did not confess to any of them of my desires. I am sure some of them must have worked it out, I regret that now looking back but I was very insecure about it. The problem is my wife, who was a smoker when we got together, has given up which I (of course) can only encourage really, it is unhealthy and I want her to be as healthy as possible. It’s a problem because I have started dreaming about smoking women all the bloody time recently, it’s not fair. The odd fetish I don’t get? Balloons. For some reason many smoking fetish web sites have links to balloon sites and there are even some that do smoking and balloons at the same time. ---

> [@martu](#): > > I have had for as long as I can remember a smoking fetish. Have seen vaginal smoking here. (No, I don’t mean friction; I mean a cigarette inserted there, followed by puffing.) I’ve related this one in another thread before, told to me by a local bargirl: She said she went to a customer’s hotel room with him. Started to get undressed, but he stopped her as soon as she had taken off her shoes. He took her outside and had her walk with him barefoot all the way to the hotel swimming pool. Then they walked back. Then he got off by licking her feet all over. This account was later included in the book _Hello, My Big, Big Honey_, an excellent compilation of letters between bargirls and customers who have returned home. Also includes some other anecdotes like this one. ---

Wow, and I thought I was weird! 😃 Now that I know you’re all such freaks 😉 I can admit that I have a really strong tickling fetish. I love to tie girls up and tickle them. The more they hate it, the more I like it. I also think shy girls are incredibly hot, especially if I get them off in a public place. An ex of mine was a dream come true. We would go out into her backyard early in the morning and I would have her strip and then I would tie her up then go inside and lock the glass door, watching her panic as she tries to get free and inside. Then we’d do it like rabbits 😃 ---

> [@kidneyfailure](#): > > It just seemed weird. Maybe I’m close-minded or uptight, but I just don’t think that people need to be standing there observing while I’m pissing. My first girlfriend was from a very nice family, was the valedictorian of our high school, and seemed to be a very down-to-earth kind of girl in the class we had together. Once we started going out, though, she started talking about cock rings and watching me take a leak. It was strange how different she was once I got to know her personally. After we broke up I found another nice girl (I’m into nice, sweet girls) and she, too, started in with the watching me piss thing. I don’t mean to say that people who are into this are deviants, or something…it’s just not something I’d care to participate in. > > My wife sometimes comes into the bathroom to brush her teeth while I’m pissing. I always turn my back to her. She gives me the “Cmon, we’re married, who cares?” speech, but I just can’t do it. Maybe _I’m_ the weird one, I don’t know. It’s not that they have a pee fetish; it’s just that its not every day that a girl gets to see a man with three penises.
