What is the tamest paraphilia?

Which unusual sexual kink is the tamest/most widely acceptable, provided that full consent is involved?

Consider kinks and fetishes that don't necessarily do anything for you personally, but you would have no problem indulging in if your partner admitted they were sexually aroused by them. If you're single, think in hypotheticals.

There are no right or wrong answers, I'm just looking for a general is it normal consensus.

Help us keep this site organized and clean. Thanks!

    For men, probably women's clothing, whether it be shoes or underwear. I know at one time, it was the most common fetish.

    Leather actually, I think it might be more common than foot fetish.

      I think that’s probably the answer.

    Feet come up a lot, but I think there's tamer ones (as a foot fetishist myself), since it has a wide range. Some people are into being stepped on or stomped, which seems kind of dangerous.

    The absolute tamest paraphilias probably have to do with roleplay. I know it also has a wide range, but it's all costume and pretend as far as I know. Like, what's the worst that could happen in a maid roleplay? Dropping the mop?

      Question to a foot fetishist. Are there particular sub foot fetishes?

      My fiance feet look like they were bound as a kid (corn nibblet toes). And idk if there was a name for that in foot fetishism. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

        Not as far as I know, oddly enough. You'd think, since it's supposedly the most common paraphilia, that we would have more words to describe them, but we sure as heck don't. I even looked around for some after I read your question and couldn't find one. There's more words in the normal thesaurus for "feet" than the number of words actual fetishists use to describe feet.

        It's a little weird. I kind of want to scream at every community now and ask them "WHY DON'T WE HAVE ANY WORDS?!"

          Like I understand theres the "dirty feet" and "stinky feet" sub fetishes in there. I was just curious if there was foot type, types. Like tiny toes and shit. Because we were playing around with selling feet pics and I was wondering if she'd have a bolstering market for them or people just likening normal feet if that makes sense.

            Oh, I wouldn't know. I know there's different types of feet, but they all look roughly the same to me. Not different enough to call them something else.

            She might have a bolstering market, I have no idea. I don't really know who buys foot pics, if anyone even does. Then again, I don't know who buys regular porn, either. Don't they know this stuff's free?

              Idk I think the people who buy want an exclusive product type thing. Her feet for sure are unique, not deformity unique but borderline. Like her foot has the side profile of a triangle. Like most shoes dont fit right because she has a "tall" but short length wise feet. It's weird but I'm not foot guy so I dont give a shit.

    • I can't argue with any of this. Roleplay does nothing for me but I'll happily go along with it if my partner wants me to partake.

    Guess foot fetishes. It's weird but not super weird. And that's coming from a guy who has zero interest in feet.

    I'm sure there are others that are just a bit wonky like wool sweater enthusiast.

    Then you just got the "normal" kinky of bondage and bdsm. That can range from fluffy handcuffs to getting whipped by razor wire. Obviously you draw the line where you are comfortable. I'm not a fan of hellraiser shit.

    Foot fetishes have become more widespread and publicly accepted. I personally don't get it, but at least it's not heinous.

    The other one that I've noticed becoming more widespread is clowns? I don't really get that one either, but "clown girl" aesthetic is popping up on social media platforms.

      I think the whole clown fetish can be contributed to the fact that a lot of people grew up with cartoons. They're directing their sexual interest into the absurd and exaggerated. Clowns act hysteric and unpredictable, much like the cartoons that they've watched in their childhood

    I think I heard somewhere that bondage is the most common fetish in the world.

    I have a very intricate conspiracy theory surrounding foot fetishists but I need to be drunk to explain it properly

    • Not a paraphilia. The key thing with paraphilias are that they are unusual things to be sexually aroused by.
