What is a fetish

The recent episode of 'Taboo: Fetish or Kink', hosted by Kay Love, explores the topic of sexual fetishes. The episode breaks down the idea of a fetish, detailing how it involves deriving sexual excitement from an atypical source, such as an object or a particular body part, and specifics how this attraction often plays a crucial role in sexual arousal and climax for those who have fetishes. The most common fetishes, based on studies, include attractions to body parts like feet, clothing items such as stockings and skirts, and various textures like leather. Kay Love also discusses the implications of fetishes on individuals, arguing that they aren't always problematic as long as there is mutual consent and understanding, using examples like 'adult baby/diaper lovers' and BDSM. The stimulating conversation concludes with an emphasis on openness to further queries and a reminder to refer to the links or studies mentioned in the episode.
