Fetish Personals
From LoveToKnow Dating
Fetish personals allow like minds and fetishes to connect. A fetish is an erotic arousal by unconventional actions, items, and interactions. Fetishism may include a desire to submit, dominate, have someone spank you or simply act out fantasies of multiple origins.
Types of Fetishes
Different types of fetishes require different types of fetish personals. The following are some ways people with fetishes are stimulated:
- Agoraphilia - public displays of sexual behavior
- Bondage –binding your lover or having your lover tie you up
- Doraphilia – the feeling of fur or bare skin
- Martymachlia – being an exhibitionist, particularly in sexual acts
- Masochism – being controlled (sometimes involves bondage)
- Odaxelagnia – the act of biting
- Sadism – controlling others
- Voyeurism – watching others engaging in sexual acts
Finding a Partner You Trust
Consenting adults who seek to explore their fetish interests need to find partners that they can truly trust. In bondage, for example, a safe word allows both partners an out if things go too far or comfort zones are violated. However, for a safe word to be effective, both partners must respect that the safe word means stop everything immediately.
Creating a Fetish Personal Ad
Fetish personal sites, as with many other dating web sites, will let you post your personal ad but restrict your viewing of other people’s personals unless you pay a membership fee, agree to their terms of service, and join the dating site. This is for your protection and limits the number of gawkers surfing the web who just want to read about people and their fetishes.
When creating your fetish personal, be specific about the type of fetishes you enjoy, the ones you are curious about and the ones you are uninterested in. It is better to avoid vagueness in this area to prevent hooking up with someone who does not share your proclivities or will want more than you are prepared to offer.
Remember that your user handle on the site is a protection of your privacy as much as the membership. You may wish to maintain that anonymity during your initial discussions. Photographs and video may enhance your profile for others, but they also expose you. Some sites recommend that while you can upload them, you should only make them available on a case-by-case basis.
Finally, when creating your personal ad, keep in mind that you should write it to appeal to the person you are looking for. Do not be general or ambiguous, be specific and inviting. The personal you write should be one you would want to answer.
Safety Tips When Posting to a Personals Site
When joining an adult personals site or a fetish personals site, you should always exercise caution and wariness. Many fetishes open you up to exploitation. Fetish sites restrict membership to those who are over the age of 18, but that does not stop some teenagers from trying to join. As with any personals site, you should not exchange personal information until you are comfortable with and sure of the partners you are meeting.
As with other personal sites, you should meet your prospective fetish personals in public places in order to facilitate getting to know them. Caution is even more vital in your interactions with others who may share similar fetishes to your own. Since fetish behavior can be associated with psychological issues and problems, you want to be very certain of your interactions.
Adult Fetish Sites
Many sites offer adults an opportunity to connect with other adults who share their personal interests and fetishes:
Fetish personals promote casual and explicit encounters. Whether you are experimenting or a long-time user of alternative lifestyle dating sites, remember that these sites do not promote harmful behavior or the infliction of pain on others.
