So recently I have been researching other culture's sex fetishes, because I've found out something interesting: your environment can give you a fetish. Sometimes this is simple, like the stereotype of the big corporation boss-man-dude who likes to be dominated and spanked at home. Or maybe when you were growing up you had a pool and an attractive girl or guy had a wardrobe malfunction while they were swimming and you got an eyeful. From then on, you may be very aroused by situations involving bodies of water and people in swimsuits. And the majority of the time this manifests in a minor way. The last example may not lead to you having permanent erection while you and your family are on vacation at the beach. It may just mean you like sexual fantasies where you get it on in the shower or hot tub (and who doesn't love that?).
But other times, these fetishes are encouraged and can grow. People can begin to rely on these fetishes to get off (and I'm using the term fetish here to mean something that arouses you, not something that you require to get off. I'll specify when I'm talking about one that is required for satisfaction). For example, in third world countries where people are sleeping on bare dirt or on mats on bare dirt, there are more insects present in people's homes. And while they are asleep (particularly during early childhood and puberty) insects can crawl on them and can crawl on their genitals and other erogenous zones. Now, because this happens during a time where the person is developing, easily influenced, and developing still, this can lead to a fetish for insects crawling on your body and/or genitals. NOTE: This is not by choice, and is completely subconscious. It does not make you crazy. Sure, this particular fetish has health risks and is unconventional, but remember that this doesn't make anyone any more creepy than you, freaky Internet-blog stalker. (I say that with love).
Now, this insect fetish can be minor. This might lead to a person really enjoying the feeling of feather duster-type toys and other "ticklers" on their body. That person might not even want to be near insects, but subconsciously they really enjoy the dusters because it brings up a pleasure response. OR they may take it too far and require a full bathtub of cockroaches to get off.
ANYWHOOOOOOOO lets move on to my main point: Japan and human conditioning (for a quick overview of what I'm talking about, HERE is a short video to fill you in on some of what I'm talking about. I took many of these from that video to make this post relate to it more, and left out some other ones I found).
Japan spawns strange fetishes faster than Charlie Sheen spews crazy ("If you try Charlie Sheen the drug your face will melt off and your children will weep over your exploded body"). Please allow me to list out some of the strange fetishes (without their fancy Latin names, because I know 90 percent of you will forget them two seconds after you read this):
Underage children, often schoolchildren, in sexual situations. Occasionally this involves rape and/or non-consensual activity.
Schoolgirls fighting and/or wrestling. This is not that strange, but there is a sub genre of this with a large following that involves the girls causing bodily harm and damage to one another.
Octopus porn, where women allow octopuses to roam over their naked body.
Women being dressed up in diapers, sometimes against their will.
Women or girls being raped or molested on crowded trains, buses, and elevators.
Women having their noses probed with objects or fingers and clamped or pulled open.
Men who are tied or held down and spat upon by women.
Movies where one actor walks up to random women on the street and without warning slaps them across the face.
Videos of women who are trained in martial arts attempting to hold off an army of men all trying to rape them.
Images and videos of women crushing objects beneath their feet, sometimes with high heels on.
Men and women having sex in front of young children (ages 6-12, usually).
Eel porn where a woman or girl uses a live eel as a dildo.
Men masturbating using school supplies, office supplies, electronic equipment, or computer components like keyboards and monitors.
Women being vaccum-sealed in plastic with small breathing tubes.
And this is just to name a few. And I know that some of these fetishes extend beyond Japan. But they are very concentrated and mainstream among Japanese subcultures, are much more widespread than anywhere else in the world, and in just generally more prevalent. There is also a higher percentage of people who have TRUE fetishes (they need one of the things on that list to get off, and without it they can't achieve orgasm). And I have a theory.
See, humans were never supposed to live in conditions like those in Japan. From the political culture, the television shows, the general ideas of the nation, the working conditions, the disclipline methods, the crowded conditions, the anti-femenistic movement, the way the whole nation works and feels, it's all unnatural for humans. Japan may be advanced, but they advanced beyond what the human psyche can handle sexually, and now people are exposed to this culture while they are developing. Their brains are taking in the ideals and conditions of Japan while it's in a highly influenceable state, and this leads to strange fetishes later in life.
So take a moment, breathe, and sit back and enjoy your humanity. The world is changing.
