Nylons feet. Trample. My wife will trample me while I jerk off. Been a thing of mine as long as I can remember.

I wouldn’t say it rises to the level of a fetish, but I’ve always had a weakness for women with glasses.

I’ve always felt that girls/women are more attractive with glasses.

Loveliest part of a woman’s body- shoulders!

Ethnic (Asian, Latina) women and brunettes. I also prefer “natural” women (no implants, as much pubes as practical) Intellectual women too, especially about stuff that hurts my head (hard science)

Facial stubble.

Lots of dark body hair against pale skin. I really like Italian dudes and black-Irish guys with very hairy chests. Think [Wes Bentley topless](http://i.imgur.com/ofbn0.jpg) (hubba frickin’ hubba!).

Strong hands are one of the first things that attracts me to a guy. The bigger and more masculine, the better. I also find feet \*highly \*aesthetic, but I don’t suck on toes or require contact with them to get off. I just like them more than the average person seems to. I remember going to the waterpark as a little kid and comparing the toes of everyone around me (IMO, very few men have attractive toes).

Feet and hands, not as the focus of ‘activities’; but a short footrub, or playing with a girls hands is the best way to start up ;). I also have a thing for girls giving you a grumpy or quizzical look, before turning into a beeming smile before you get busy (thinking of ways to get a girl giving this look can be just as much fun :D). Then there is the favorite spots on her body: neck just under her ear, lower back where those ‘dimples’ form, top of her inner thighs… I’ll be in my bunk.

Smoking is mine, the thought of kissing a beautiful woman as she smokes a long white cigarette is, just, well I’ll be in my bunk…

Interesting thread!

I have had a “knocked-out-superheroine” fetish since I was a prepubescent.  
(Of course, that is when the most powerful, long-lasting fetishes start.)  
I like seeing beautiful women in skimpy costumes get knocked out by various means – punches, blasts, blows to the head, electricity, etc. This only works if it is done in a non-realistic fashion, with the heroine sustaining no bruises or cuts to mar her beauty.

They don’t really have to be “super”, just attractive and preferably scantily-clad.

I attribute this to cartoons and comics that I saw as a youngster. The first comic book that I bought primarily for a knockout scene was this one :

> **[Avengers Vol 1 59](https://marvel.fandom.com/wiki/Avengers_Vol_1_59)**
>
> Featured Characters: Supporting Characters: Clyde Antagonists: Big Eddie Rocky (As Goliath in flashback) Other Characters: Various unnamed employees Races and Species: Locations: Midtown and Items: and , and Vehicles: Events: Halloween A new costumed...

The Wasp fainted, and later was “nerve-pinched” out cold by Yellowjacket.

Later on, just as I was in the first throes of puberty, I saw this KO-fest of a TV-movie :  
[http://www.accomics.com/shop-dvds/panther-girl-of-the-kongo-dvd/](http://www.accomics.com/shop-dvds/panther-girl-of-the-kongo-dvd/)  
“Panther Girl of the Kongo”, a 1955 serial that was edited down to a 90-minute TV-movie length in the early 1960s. I saw it in the very early 1970s on TV. The lovely, leggy Phyllis Coates played a mini-skirted jungle heroine who got KOed about five or six times (depending on the edit). I was hooked on knockout scenes from that point onwards.

I already had my knockout fetish well-established in my demented psyche when I first saw the Wonder Woman TV show with the sexy goddess, Lynda Carter. Even so, this chloroform scene, from the “Fausta, the Nazi Wonder Woman” episode (original air date – April 28, 1976), hit me like a runaway locomotive :

[![](https://img.youtube.com/vi/3WhVfKd-YSY/hqdefault.jpg "Wonder Woman Video 20") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3WhVfKd-YSY)

Weird, wild stuff! Ah, the memories! (Gosh, I’m such a pervert…)

Turn-ons?

I like all sorts of women, but I especially like plump big-breasted women, and of them, especially, plump big-breasted Asian women.

Smaller things? Lack of strongly-contrasting makeup; small, neat, colourless fingernails; T-shirts & jeans; flannel pyjamas… lingerie doesn’t do a thing for me, sorry.

We could probably start another thread about anti-fetishes and turn-offs…

Sexy!

I don’t really have a fetish but I do not like chicks with boy haircuts. It confuses my brain.

My brain: “Hey look at those titties!”

Eyes: “We are. Thems some sexy titties. Hey wait a minute! Why does that 14 year old boy have titties?”

Brain: “uuuuuhhhhhh…_fizzle_ _pop_ _beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep_”

Mostly Received Pronunciation, though the occasional Northern accent is OK. No Cockney or anything else for me.
