How would you feel if you found out that the initial reason someone was attracted to you was because of a fetish?

Example: you have blonde hair, they have a fetish for blonde hair, and that's the reason that they started talking to you

Any start is a start... As long as they eventually see you as more than that

@Quizzical Pretty much this.
If that's all they continued to see me as, I would feel objectified.

Either way, I think I'd be a little offended.

I don't see an issue. There's always some reason for the initial attraction.

@Sicarium I have to ask this because I'm yet to experience this but, how often do you hear women with a fetish? And how often are men left feeling threatened by said fetish?
Sicarium · 46-50, M
@Peppa For the first question, quite often, women just don't advertise their fetishes to whoever on average. Every woman I've dated or slept with has had their own fetish or kink. For the second question, not sure.

Also, "fetish" as a concept is subjective. What one person considers a fetish is completely normal to another. In the OP's example, liking blonde hair is a fetish. I just consider hair color a preference, not a fetish, for example. There's also a scale. A fetish for oral sex is more accepted and more easily talked about with a lover or potential lover than wanting to be chained up, for example.

@Sicarium I get what you are saying there. But Unfortunately you won't really understand why some women won't entertain or embrace a man's fetish.
Liking blonde hair is one thing but a fetish to me, means it becomes the extreme and anything will add could be done with the blonde hair.

Until you experience that aggression, that forceful behaviour, that "my way or the highway" attitude, that I feel completely vulnerable and scared in this person's presence. You can't understand the reasoning behind not embracing it.
You may say that's a lack of compatability, but what about the people that hide their true kinks until your hooked on them, they spring this on you and suddenly what you were doing before is no longer on the menu, only now said thing.

I know in my own experience most of the kinks I've been a privy to have made me feel subjected and objectified. That how I feel doesn't come into it.
You're just a means to an end.
That could just be my experience but I know even having girly chats it resonates with a few more than just me.

Still better than realising someone was attracted to you because of your money/wealth, I guess. 🤔

I'm not sure about fetish. But I liked tall men with blue eyes. If that was the thing that first got my attention, it is any worse than someone attracted to blond hair. It only becomes a problem if they get weird and want to do *stuff* to your hair.
Paloma · 26-30, F
@Serenitree That's true. I want to make a distinction between preferences and fetishes here
Peppa · 31-35, F
I would be insulted "much like when this guy decided to tell me the reason he came to the UK was to find black women as he is obsessed with them!"
Your no longer a person or special your generic and he'd date anyone once they fit that criteria and like him

@Peppa This, fetishist are the worst and being boiled down to one part of yourself is disgusting.

I guess some people don't care as long as they get attention
Peppa · 31-35, F
@Chickie I was kind enough to not post some of the crude things he said to me following that. He was a weirdo. Who followed me onto the train.

Taking a preference to a fetish level that to me is a sign that my sole purpose is to fulfil his needs.

They've got good taste

My fetish is girls feet. Especially pantyhose feet. That might be weird but I'm honest. I have others too. These are a couple of mine.
Shawnkautzman1 · 51-55, M
@FelixLegion yes absolutely. We are talking about fetishes not feelings

@FelixLegion cheers. I will be doing that tomorrow night.

That's more like a preference but if you told my belly button then I'd have to rethink about it 😦
vetguy1991 · 51-55, M
Not sure never been in that situation
I would find that kind of cool and interesting tbh.
SW-User
Hmm, used maybe
erosme · 46-50, M
Well, there is always something you feel attracted, you can call it fetish. The law of attraction!
moonlightlove · 26-30, F

MrAverage1965 · 61-69, M
It would depend on the fetish is a girl had a fetish for older guys that would be just fine with me

SerenitiesScars · 36-40, M
🤔 They must be one of those sicko "Straight" people with a creepy penis fetish where they only want a penis!! D: Those monsters!!
Peppa · 31-35, F
@SerenitiesScars I think I know a few people like this.
SerenitiesScars · 36-40, M
🤔 You mean there are still some out there?
