What is a fetish?

Having a fetish means that a person experiences a form of sexual desire which is linked to an abnormal degree to an object, body part or even material. A fetish is a sexual attraction to a non-sexual object or body part, such as shoes or feet. They are more common in men. Many people with fetishes must have or dream about the object of their desire, alone or with a partner, in order to become sexually aroused, have an erection, and have an orgasm. Masturbation can occur while a fetishist is holding, sniffing, touching, or tasting the object. They may even demand that their partner wear it or use it during intercourse.
