/\good point. My understanding of kink and fetish ,is that kink is S&M and fetish is a variety of things like:horse bridal,stuffed animals,cartoon characters,feet,hands,shoes,etc etc etc.

A fetish is just an fixation on something that can be kinky or not. You could be one of those rare people that like girls with braces. That would considered a fetish, but I don't think it's very kinky.

Yeah, Thanks Inkster for being all cool and seeing what I'm saying for what it is and not being all mean because it's *different*
Basicly- I fetish is something that you NEEED to get off. A kink, is just a fun lil' thing that you do on occasion. MUCHO difference.

It's an interesting topic because the way kink and fetish get thrown around they are often used far far away from their actual meaning
I feel that fetish has taken on a life of it's own - it's not what it was originally (which is really no surprise since language is constantly evolving) And kink doesn't always go along with it - but many of the people using these words on this board are young and are learning (as hopefully we all do our whole lives) So it's not surprising to see these words misused in posts, along with a plethora of others - tis to be expected I misused kinky FOREVER and yet people still liked me :) So there's hope...

Chainlinkboy(I haven't gotten your real name yet)- we aren't all 15 yr old girls/boys who pop too much E and think we are kinky because we used handcuffs or did it doggy style. At least give SOME of us credit. Also, your definition and/or differentiation between fetish and kink as fetish being something YOU need to get off is just that. YOUR personal view of it. Fetish sure as hell helps, but I personally don't neeeed it to get off. However, I will get off a lot faster, easier and better wearing a 6" pair of heels :kam:

Maybe it's just my style of typing that has got everybody's hackles up. This post was meant in a conversational tone- and friendly and fun. Quote:
fet·ish also fet·ich ( P ) Pronunciation Key (ftsh, ftsh) n. 1 An object that is believed to have magical or spiritual powers, especially such an object associated with animistic or shamanistic religious practices. 2 An object of unreasonably excessive attention or reverence: made a fetish of punctuality. 3 Something, such as a material object or a nonsexual part of the body, that arouses sexual desire and may become necessary for sexual gratification. 4 An abnormally obsessive preoccupation or attachment; a fixation. I think you're thinking about kink, still.

LOL, yeah, it says MAY there, but I'm sure there are other places that state it.
Maybe I'll go search under psychology and see what it comes up with? haha I love arguing about word definitions. Hey, and for the record? I'm kinky, but have not-a-one fetish.

Having a fetish is not necessary for everyone to get off.
Basically you are saying that people can't just fuck and climax without having a fetish involved somehow? Just because you can't get off without a fetish, doesn't mean other people can't. If you want to get technical and say that certain body parts during, or the act of sex itself, is a fetish then maybe. But thats a little far fetched don't you think? (edit: don't get me wrong, I'm quite the fetishist myself. But I've gotten off many, many times without having one of my fetishes present during my play) Last edited by MistressSpankME; Jul 31, 03 at 03:06 PM.

I'd actually agree that in the beginning stages of fetishism the object ISN'T needed to get off (grudging point made) but when it is in it's full fledged condition, you NEEEEED it. **hugs**

All true points but a fetish can be like dirty and scary just as much as kink can. like a fetish can be as harmless as a guy that always has to look at a chicks hands or somthing before he'll like them or as disterbing as tea bagging or somthin. kink is like just off the hook scary like that show with all the family hanging ppl up and doin S&M to eachother.. in the end it all comes down to do whatever blows your load right?

So basically, from reading that quote and relating what youv'e said to it, your fetishism IS a problem.
and one qustion, how in the hell do you know if I'm kinky or a fetishist?? Unless this means FULL displacement, which, no matter how much I like my high heels or outfits, full discplacement of sexual gratification to a fetish seems unhuman and unhealthy to me. Well, that is if it's fully displaced to a rainboot or something. Maybe to their many fetishes in whole is not so unhealthy. fet·ish·ism also fet·ich·ism ( P ) Pronunciation Key (ft-shzm, ft-) n. Worship of or belief in magical fetishes. Excessive attachment or regard. The displacement of sexual arousal or gratification to a fetish. I think you are taking YOUR feelings towards your fetishes and applying them to everyone else. I also know people who have been fetishists for years that can get off without their fetish, yeah it's not as easy and doesn't happen very often. But by the sounds of it, yours is more of an unhealthy obsession rather than an arrousing fetish, if its impossible for you to get off without it. and what do you mean by "for the record I'm kinky but don't have yet one-a-fetish" Isn't this whole debate based on the fact that YOU said YOU can't get off without YOUR fetishes??
