What does Fetish mean?

A fetish is a focused attraction — to something like leather, feet, or gear — that plays a key role in someone's arousal. Where a kink is a fun extra, a fetish is often more essential.

Fetishes are common and healthy. Exploring one with a willing partner is simply another way to connect, and there is a wide community around most of them.

As with all play, consent and communication come first. Sharing a fetish openly helps partners decide together how to explore it.
