There are three primary types of fetishes:
Partialism: refers specifically to erotic fetishism for body parts that are not usually considered sexual.
Objectophilia: When a person’s fetish involves sexual feelings towards an object, and in some cases romantic feelings as well.
Hygrophilia: being turned on by bodily fluids, usually one in particular.
The fascinating world of fetishes is a delightful playground! Kinks often overlap or dance around categories, making it a wonderful challenge to pin them down. Along with the main fetish types, we’ve whipped up some fun groupings for our extensive kink catalog, featuring clothing, role play, sensation, and oh-so-taboo delights!

Body Part Fetishes (Partialism)
1. Armpit Fetish (maschalagnia)
The scent, the sweat, the hair, and vulnerability are all aspects of the armpit fetish. To some an armpit is on the same level as a vagina – a secret cave of desire so kissable, and yes, even fuckable.
2. Belly Button Fetish (alvinophilia)
Attraction to the human navel is pretty much the basis of the belly button fetish. Tickling, kissing, licking, and drinking shots of whiskey from the belly button are all possibilities. Innie or outie? The human navel, or belly button, has long been a source of fascination and attraction for many. The belly button fetish is rooted in this allure, with a range of intimate activities possible, from tickling and kissing to more unconventional acts like licking or even drinking from this unique bodily feature. Whether an “innie” or an “outie”, the belly button holds a certain mystique that captivates those drawn to this particular form of sensual exploration.
Some individuals have a strong preference for larger penises, while others take this desire to an even more extreme level, developing a fetish where nothing else will suffice. Additionally, some people’s fetishes are more specific, such as a fixation on large black penises. Conversely, the opposite end of this spectrum is the small penis fetish, also known as SPH.
Some folks just can’t help but appreciate a nice ass! They might find themselves grinning and daydreaming about those lovely curves. This lighthearted admiration definitely adds some fun during playful times, and who knows—it might even spark some laughs and good vibes!. Read: Ass Fetish: 8 Ass Play Ideas to Enjoy
5. Eyeball Licking Fetish (oculolinctus)
Eyeball licking, a unique and intimate act, taps into the vulnerability and trust between partners. The sensation of a tongue gently caressing the eye’s delicate surface can be both thrilling and deeply intimate. For some, the act of being the “licker” holds a particular allure, as it requires a profound level of trust and connection with one’s partner. Exploring this sensual kink can be a profound way to deepen intimacy and push the boundaries of physical and emotional vulnerability. Read: Oculolinctus: Eyeball Licking Fetish
6. Fat Fetish
Fat fetishism refers to being attracted to people who are overweight or obese. This attraction often increases with the person’s size, and for some individuals, larger sizes are preferred. Within fat fetishism, there are specific interests like feederism, gaining, stuffing, and padding. A strong preference for larger women may be referred to as a BBW fetish.
Foot fetishism is probably one of the most popular kinks on our list, and people with this fetish are lucky enough to get a peek at women’s feet almost anywhere they go. Some simply lust after the soles of a woman’s foot or desire to kiss and lick some dainty toes. For others, their foot fetish veers into BDSM territory, where worshiping at the feet of a Mistress or Master is a form of submission. Read: Foot Fetish: A Guide to Foot Kinks & Play
A fetish for freckles is based on arousal to people with freckles, or simply the freckles themselves. The interest might be in the patterns made by various moles and freckles, or the beauty of “imperfection”. Remember Marilyn Monroe’s iconic mole? I’m sure it was a source of excitement for more than a few men. Was that beauty mark even real though?
Hand fetishes, while less common than foot fetishes, do exist. Hands play a significant role in various sexual activities, including handjobs, touching, and spanking. A person with a hand kink may be particularly attracted to fingers or palms, or they might find it stimulating to observe hands engaged in different tasks, even non-sexual ones. Curious to learn more? See Hand Fetish and Arousal: Cheirophilia
10. Hairy Fetish (trichophilia)
Although women often remove body hair, some men find hairy women highly attractive. This “hirsute fetish” is all about appreciating the feel, smell, and look of body hair. And it’s not just limited to women – many people also find hairier men, sometimes called “bears” in the LGBTQ+ community, to be the epitome of masculinity. For some, the attraction is more about head hair than body hair. Read more about the kink for hair: Hair Fetish: What Is Trichophilia All About?
Some fetishes on our extensive list revolve around the idea of “bigger is better.” The labia, which consist of the labia minora and labia majora, are central to this fetish. Individuals with a large labia fetish often prefer labia minora that extend beyond the outer labia, appreciating their prominence. Others enjoy the appearance and sensations from pussy pumping, a technique used to enhance size. This interest may connect to broader themes of body positivity, acceptance, and the diversity of human anatomy.
12. Nails Fetish (onychophilia)
A kink for long nails is not surprising considering how many women cultivate and display long, painted nails. However, a fingernail or toenail fetish could also be for unvarnished nails in their natural state. A person with a nail fetish may be aroused by the nails themselves or could be more interested in feeling those nails scratching down their back. This would be the distinction between onychophilia and amychophilia.
A nose fetish often involves a strong preference for specific shapes or sizes of noses, as well as an interest in nostrils and their stimulation. In BDSM practices, there is a form of Japanese nose torture or humiliation that utilizes a hook. Some people may also be attracted to activities like nose licking or nasolingus.
14. Pubic Hair Fetish (pubephilia)
A kinkster with pubephilia finds pubic hair particularly appealing, whether it’s a full bush, a well-groomed landing strip, or even a playful patch. This specific attraction is often rooted in the natural beauty and individuality that pubic hair represents. The presence of pubic hair can enhance a person’s unique scent, contributing to a more intoxicating experience, and add an element of intrigue and allure to intimate areas. Many believe that the texture, appearance, and even scent of pubic hair can heighten arousal and create deeper connections during intimate moments, making it a significant aspect of their sexuality.
15. Stomach Fetish (alvinolagnia)
The midsection of a woman’s body often attracts attention in various social and cultural contexts. Many women enhance this area with accessories like belly chains, intriguing piercings, and stylish cropped tops. This focus on a specific body part reflects societal trends and personal expressions of beauty. It’s interesting to see how this varies across cultures and fashion movements, influencing how women present themselves to the world.
16. Tail Fetish
A tail fetish, also known as vestigiality fetish, varies widely among individuals. Some are attracted to the sleek appearance of reptilian tails, while others prefer the playful appeal of fur, often engaging in furry communities. Temporary tails can enhance the experience through clips or stylish attachments. Butt plugs designed with tails have also gained popularity, amplifying sensations and aesthetics. Tail fetishes often intersect with pet play, enriching exploration and enjoyment for those embracing their fantasies and desires.
17. Teeth Fetish (odontophilia)
A fetish for teeth can take many forms. Some people may find themselves attracted to unusual teeth, others may enjoy licking a partner’s teeth, or even become excited by tooth extraction. For some odontophiles, there may be connections with other kinks listed on this page, such as biting and vampire fetishes. Additionally, dental fetishism falls under the broader category of medical fetishes. For these individuals, the focus may be less on the teeth themselves and more on the feeling of vulnerability that comes with sitting in a dentist’s chair, mouth open wide, and being exposed to various dental tools.
18. Tongue Fetish
Oh, the tongue! So pink, so playful, and oh-so-fun for all kinds of kisses and licks. Tongue enthusiasts might have their favorites when it comes to size and shape. A tongue fetish? It could mean loving a partner’s tongue dance or watching it tease a nipple – it’s all about the fun! I definitely have my favorite spots for my partner’s tongue!

This is the fun-loving crowd who gets a kick out of playful “love-bites,” which can be a cheeky part of S&M (sadomasochism).

When the biting game escalates beyond gentle nibbles and there’s a chance to go a bit wild, it’s time to sprinkle in some safety tips for extra fun!

Think about specific delights like enema adventure, cast wonder, temperature-taking antics, anesthesia thrills, and the enchanting allure of medical masks and uniforms! Those with this playful fascination may love to dive into role-playing as the zany doctor or playful patient. (Check out these fun BDSM medical play ideas!) While some cheeky medical role-play or fantasies might sizzle with the promise of invasive exams, it’s essential to note that many medical fetish fans find joy outside of explicitly naughty scenarios.
23. Piercing Fetish (stigmatophilia)
If someone has a piercing fetish, they might find all the shiny bling on themselves or others quite exhilarating! The thrill of the needle and the art of piercing can add a delightful dash of excitement to their playtime. With piercings being all the rage these days, there are countless fun and flirty ways this kink can come to life! And let’s not forget, stigmatophilia adds a cheeky twist, celebrating not just piercings but also tattoos – a double dose of fabulous body art! Read: Tattoo and Piercing Fetish.

Pregnancy can be such a delightful time, filled with charm and allure! That adorable round belly, the luscious curves, and the magical air of nurturing all add to the excitement.

For those with a playful side, tears can be more than just sad—they can be surprisingly fun! Watching someone tear up or hearing those sniffles can spark a little thrill, no matter the cause. In the world of BDSM, a Dom who enjoys dacryphilia can easily draw out those watery eyes from their willing submissive.

Oh-so-fluffy, oh-so-fancy, oh-so-comfy and snug! When it comes to fur, the real deal is simply unbeatable, especially for those with a furry passion! Much of the fun around a fur fetish is tied to that delicious thrill of fur coats in particular. A gal strutting in furs is like a walking fairy tale, but for many, it’s the soft, luscious fur that really gets the excitement buzzing!
31. High Heel Fetish
High heels have been long been associated with sex, and it’s not surprising why. High heels subtly change the wearer’s posture to a more “butt out” and “tits up” look, by pushing the lower back and chest forward. Heels are also associated with power and dominance, and femininity at the same time. This makes heels the shoe of choice for femdoms and dominatrixes, the type of women that many a heel fetishist desires. For some with a high-heel kink, the wearer isn’t even part of the equation. A stiletto shoe on its own may be enough to elicit sexual arousal. Others have this kink in conjunction with a foot fetish, and a heel dangling from a lady’s sexy toes may be the height of ecstasy.
32. Latex Fetish
Latex is a super fun, cozy fabric that highlights all the right curves! It’s the perfect pick for a range of playful outfits, from snug hoods to flirty gloves and sassy stockings. When latex steps into the spotlight, be it in fabulous fashion or cheeky accessories, it ignites a thrill of excitement—voilà, you’ve uncovered a delightful latex fetish!
33. Leather Fetish
Leather is like the ultimate VIP of materials for those who adore it! Its scent is oh-so-recognizable, and the textures can range from buttery smooth to delightfully fuzzy, just like your favorite suede sweater. Unlike those wannabe substitutes like PVC, real leather is like a breath of fresh air and gets cozier with every wear – it’s practically begging to be snuggled into! Think of all those iconic pieces: sleek jackets, fabulous Italian heels, and yes, even dad’s trusty belt! The love for leather is a classic affair and definitely ranks high on our list of exciting kinks! Learn more about it in our article, Leather Fetish Explained.
34. Panty Fetish
A panty fetish is a kink for women’s underwear, and preferences can vary widely. Some panty fetishists love the exposure offered by a G-string or thong panties, and others prefer full-bottom panties and bikini-style underwear. Panty sniffing, panty collecting, crossdressing with panties, and even buying dirty panties off the internet are all possible pastimes of a panty lover. If this is your kink, you might want to check out 4 Ways to Enjoy Your Used Panty Fetish.
35. Pantyhose Fetish
A fabulous pair of pantyhose works magic for your legs, adding glamour and confidence that transform even the simplest outfit! Who can resist the appeal of silky, snug nylons? They elevate the beauty of your legs, giving them a sleek, shiny finish that’s hard to ignore. The soft, luxurious feel and the way they embrace your curves can be enchanting! For many, sliding into pantyhose is stepping into a world where charm meets touch. Read our popular article, All You Need to Know about the Pantyhose Fetish.
Ladies often jest about having a shoe obsession, but let’s be real—it’s all about that thrill of hunting down the perfect pair to fill up those closets! However, a true shoe fetish takes things to a whole new playground. Whether it’s the alluring charm of high heels or the captivating nature of boots, this kink knows no bounds! Those enchanted by this passion might find themselves giddy just gazing at shoes, caressing them, inhaling their scent, or even reveling in the joy of wearing them.
37. Spandex Fetish
Spandex is a versatile fabric that became popular in the ’80s alongside the rise of workout videos. This stretchy material conforms to the body and has a shiny finish. Unlike latex, spandex is breathable and blends well with casual outfits. Its appeal isn’t just in the fabric itself; it’s also about the confidence of those who wear it, from dancers to swimmers, athletes, and performers.
38. Stocking Fetish
I see the stockings fetish as an extension of the pantyhose fetish, but with a few bonuses. In addition to that silky look and feel, there are things like garters and garter belts that add to the sex appeal. The wearer can keep these details hidden, or just slightly peeking out from under their clothing which adds to the allure and anticipation. There’s also something about seeing the top of a pair of stockings on a woman’s legs, as they accentuate the length of her legs but stop just a few inches below her panties.
Zentai suits are like a second skin, made from stretchy spandex that hugs your curves! Slip into one, and you become a mysterious figure of fun. Remember, zentai suits differ from morph suits. While both are great for costumes and sports events, morph suits are often seen on the sidelines or for green screen fun. Originating from Japan, the zentai craze celebrates the thrilling sensations of wearing one, with a playful twist. Embrace your inner superhero or stylish enigma! Learn more about the Zentai Suit Fetish.
Object Fetishes (Objectophilia)
40. Balloon Fetish
People with a balloon fetish, known as “looners,” find joy in everything balloons offer! For some, spotting a cheerful balloon sparks excitement, while others enjoy the whimsical sounds of inflating, deflating, or bursting balloons. In the balloon-loving community, you’ll find “poppers” who thrill at the sound of a bursting balloon, and “non-poppers” who simply enjoy their colorful presence. The variety of pursuits is as diverse as the happiness they bring! Learn more about balloon kink: Balloon Fetish for Looners.

Sometimes, it’s all about the texture and shape of the food that adds that extra spark.

Looking for ideas? See 7 Foods for Sex.
A nebulophile simply can’t resist the allure of smoke and fog! Imagine taking a romantic stroll through a thick, dreamy fog—talk about an enchanting experience!

Mirror, mirror on the wall, who’s ready for some playful fun? Katoptroonophiles love peeping into mirrors during sexy times, whether it’s steamy sessions of self-love or some cheeky escapades! For them, ordinary sex might just feel a tad dull without a shiny reflection nearby.

These “holy thrill-seekers” might just be reacting to a bit of repressed desire, spiced up with a dash of guilt and a sprinkle of mischief!

While I may not be a plushie enthusiast, I totally get the charm of having a special connection with a cuddly companion. For those who dive into this delightful world, their plushie sure knows how to steal the show and spark joy! Some adventurous souls might even tweak their toys a bit, but I’ll let the pros handle those details. Plushophilia is a fetish for stuffed animals, and for these people, there is no human who can come close to turning them on as much as their favorite plushie. Some like to add a hole to their plush stuffed animal for penetration, or simply rub themselves with the soft exterior.
Those with a tentacle crush might find themselves irresistibly charmed by the playful wiggles of a tentacled friend, real or imagined! Just picture those tentacles playfully wrapping around them, sparking giggles of delight and the excitement of a fun, adventurous escapade that could explore all sorts of imaginative twists and turns!

50. Tree Fetish (dendrophilia)
Dendrophilia is like having a crush on trees — but it’s way more than just a casual hug on a tree! These tree enthusiasts admire their oak and pine pals for their impressive, strong vibes. When it comes to this playful passion, some tree lovers may even get a little frisky with the bark and branches! Others might just prefer to get cozy in the forest, surrounded by the trees that tickle their fancy. And speaking of wood, there’s also xylophilia — where folks find joy in wood itself, which could totally add another fun layer! Whether it’s a romp on the polished dining table or a playful embrace with a sturdy trunk, there’s plenty of fun to be had!
Water enthusiasts are captivated by the allure of aquatic intimacy, whether through the thrill of swimming in open waters or the exploration of underwater encounters. For some, this fascination goes beyond personal interactions; it encompasses the essence of water itself. Showers with their rhythmic flow, bathtubs as serene sanctuaries, and the raw power of floods can evoke a unique arousal, igniting the imagination. This connection with water evokes feelings of freedom and bliss, encouraging a deeper understanding of desires and the elemental nature of this vital source.
