Weird Sex Fetishes
-
Odontophilia (Teeth)
This involves people being aroused by teeth — looking at them, licking them, caressing them lovingly.
On the bright side, a tooth fetish makes dinner dates extra special. Imagine: every bite, an erotic experience.
-
Haircut Fetish
So maybe he chips in a few bucks for at-home salon services and you go the rest of your life without ever seeing a split end in your hair again.
Seems like a win all around.
-
Worming
This one's about licking eyeballs which ... we're not going to sugarcoat things here, seems way gross. Unless it's your thing! In which case: no judgment, go live and be free and happy.
-
Pillows
Agalmatophilia, the love of statues, mannequins and dolls, is the stuff of paraphilic legend (in 1877, a Russian sexologist documented a gardner's love affair with a statue of Venus de Milo), but the love of pillows seems like a relatively recent phenomenon.
In Japan, there's a subculture of men carrying on "relationships" with body pillows illustrated with pubescant Anime figures. Well...at least they know why they don't have girlfriends.
-
Dendrophilia
This one's adorable. If your guy has an erotic affinity for trees, marry him!
Anyone that can literalize derogatory metaphorical slang (treehugger) to this extent probably has an unmatched sense of humor.

Gay Male Denture Enthusiasts
If your dude thinks your teeth would be better if you could extract them from your mouth during intimate moments ... honey, you can do better.
-
Burping
Are you sure he's not twelve?
-
Plushie
If you're still hanging on to your childhood stuffed animal, you might need to hide it away when your plushie guy spends the night.
-
Whispering
Not quite a fetish, some people report getting an incredible tingling feeling in their scalp and down their spine when they hear people whispering. Termed autonomous sensory meridian response (ASMR), wide media coverage of this condition is giving whisper fetishists a good name.
-
Boytaurs
If you wish we lived in a world where anyone with a Y chromosome had hooves where his feet should be, boytaurs are your jam.
