10 surprising sexual fetishes

  1. Triolism. Maybe this name doesn't mean anything to you, but how about a menage a trois? A threesome, an orgy... Some people like to take part in them, others like to watch them. Which side are you on?
  2. Somnophilia. Excitement about having sex with someone who is asleep. This should, of course, stay in the fantasy or role-play realm in order for consent to be given.
  3. Harpaxophilia. Do you like stories about cops and robbers? Well, this is your kink. Muggings, robberies and everything that goes with them are what turn on people with this fetish. It’s a classic example of submission.
  4. Elifilia. Sexual obsession with fabrics. The variety and softness of different sheets can be an element that turns on someone with this fetish.
  5. Dacrifilia. Most common among men, this is arousal from tears or sobbing. It can arise in different situations, but the most common is when one partner causes the other to cry as a result of verbal or physical abuse - which is part of a consensual role-play scenario.
  6. Agalmatophilia. This is a sexual desire for statues, dolls, mannequins or other objects that take human form. Perhaps these are the people who spend a lot of time window shopping…
  7. Basoexia. Arousal produced by kissing. This happens to many people, so it’s likely we all suffer a little from this fetish.
  8. Technosexualism. I'm sure that more than one person reading this is interested in this sexual practice. Technosexualism is about attraction to machinery, technology or robots of any kind.
  9. Mysophilia. Attraction to dirty laundry (and dirty things in general). Who here does the dirty laundry? Guilty!
  10. Capnolagnia. Sexual attraction to people who smoke. Is this why we all secretly love the bad boy smoking in the corner in every Hollywood movie?
