From asphyxiophilia to trichophilia : a short guide to sexual fetishes

Whether we like it or not, let’s face the fact that the world does not stand still. People change, their preferences, desires and, of course, sex life. The emancipation promoted by modern society allows you to boldly realize the most intimate intimate fantasies. Many are in no hurry to share them with others (in some cases this is even good), while others reveal their secrets to partners, and together they embark on an amazing journey along the road of sexual pleasure.

In recent years, what was once considered perversion and mental deviations, in particular fetishism and BDSM culture, are not only widely accepted by society, but also constantly attract more and more supporters into their ranks. Research shows that 1 in 3 people have had an experience or fantasy of non-standard sex at least once. Even the WHO in 2018 excluded fetishism and transvestism from the list of “sexual perversions”, because for most fans of this kind of intimate activities, this is just an unusual form of sexual self-expression, which, with the right approach, can not only revive personal life, but also significantly strengthen relationships between partners.

6. Dendrophilia

7. Asphyxiophilia

16. Altocalcifilia
