Yesterday in the Freud class we discussed many things, among them was fetishism. In illuminating Freud's writings on the subject, one of my classmates went over the many "fetishes" he had come across in his research. I need not say that this research was almost entirely limited to the internet. I mean, why would one go anywhere else? The internet is the Domain of Fetishism!!! It's totally not shocking, I know, but seriously now, once you begin cataloguing all these fetishes, it becomes a bit crazy. And having some kind of fetish appears as "normal" and everyone is then trying to outdo everyone else in their eXtreMe fetishisation of ExTreme things. But, as we learned from Freud, fetishes can and usually are pretty serious pathological states of mind caused by the scariness of the vagina. Oh, maybe times have changed and perhaps fetishism is being rethought or normalized to certain degrees. But remember: If you are unsettled in the least and are a boy, the Vagina = scary scary trauma! You may end up requiring the help of stuffed toys for your orgasming. Or you might go the more traditional leather and latex route. Whatever the case, I only wish boys the best in their initial encounters with the Vagina. May it not scare you into fetishism at an early age. Oh, and if you get scared but don't develop a fetish, then the vagina might make you a homo-sex-ual. That's just how it is.
