Fetishes can be a big source of misconception and shame even today, so we wanted to take some time to shed some light on this topic. After all, our goal is to empower our customers and help them feel confident in their bodies. That includes learning about and embracing their sexuality to the fullest!

First you might be wondering, what is a fetish exactly? The concept of fetishism has been around for a very long time and though people may talk more openly about them these days, there are still many misconception. A fetish is typically something that is not inherently erotic in nature that has become erotic to someone in some way. Sometimes a fetish can be a body part like feet, armpits, or hands while other times it can be an object or even a situation. What defines a true fetish is how it is often linked very closely to someone’s personal sexuality and they often play very heavily into the person’s sex life.

Having a fetish for underwear means being highly aroused by underwear or undergarments in general. This can look like many things, and no two fetishists are alike! The fetish can be a broad arousal by all undergarments in any context, or specific to a type of garment, even down to the color. Some people may be aroused by wearing underwear or by their lovers wearing it, while for others the garment on its own can be the draw.

There is also a variation of people’s preference for clean or dirty, as some people may be more drawn to the smell of a worn pair.

There’s endless variation on how an underwear fetish can look and feel to everyone, and there is no one right way to indulge provided all the parties involved are consenting!
