I would say that the DSM is the be all end all for a definition such as this
"Usually". And it's from a book on disorders. Plus, the word comes from a term for Magical Objects or Objects of Obsession.

"magical object: something, especially an inanimate object, that some people revere or worship because they believe it has magical powers or is animated by a spirit
2. object of obsession: an object, idea, or activity that somebody is irrationally obsessed with or attached to
3. psychiatry object arousing sexual desire: something, for example, an inanimate object or nonsexual part of the body that arouses sexual excitement in some people."

No, you're not actually right, it's just that people feel bad for idiots and out of political correctness COMMON definitions become CORRECT definitions.

It's bullshit.
Language constantly changes. It has been changing for centuries. You can look up any number of words in the OED and find that they have changed meaning over time.

The DSM would be the "be all end all" as it relates to psychology. The fact that this is from the DSM, however, would mean it's referring to the definition in terms of mental illness.

A fetish is psychological and it is a disorder, just like any other obsession

You know, I remember there being a thread about fetishes on this website about a year ago. It was very interesting, and devoid of silly arguments over the definition of a word, as far as I remember. It would be nice to read something like that again, instead of every thread turning into an irrelevant argument.

I need to be choked with large metal chains. Just the thought cold metal constricting my airways is enough to do it right here. Tongues in pantyhose holes, knives in areas they normally wouldn't be, are these fantasy or fetish?

You can be sexually obsessed with something without it being REQUIRED. There are degrees of obsession.

Ho ho ho.

That knife-in-places-where-it-shouldn't-be has already been done. Which end of the knife are you talking about?

It was the perfect set-up, you would've done the same to me. If you hadn't I would've been incredibly disappointed.

The pointy end^_^ of course, dahlin. My wife has this fantastic dagger with a wolf head on one end and a partially serated blade. We oil it with dragonsblood essential oil. Clove oil is too strong for my senses. You should try it sometime, there is no bleeding involved if you are careful.

I must say that's rather bizarre if I'm hearing right. Up your arse?

I actually think that a lack of experience is more key. The less concrete experience you have in the matter, the more your mind is going to wander into it's own territory.

I don't think that people with a sufficient sexual schedule (or even a loss of virginity) are responsible for some of the odder things out there; I'd say that at least originally it was due to someone reaching the point of "oh fucking god i'm so horny, hey that looks like a neat idea".

I don't really have anymyself. Don't get me wrong, I like a "varied diet", but I don't have anything too particular and certainly nothing universal.

Seems he means just like "play cuts" around the surface, or using the oiled blade as a tool for stimulation.

Though I thought the same thing when I read through it. :P
