Not sure where to begin Laughing
at first,i thought i had teratophilia,but it doesn't quite fit.It's more of a liking for hideous features e.g. axe homicide look and devil features,on more frightening side etc...
Trust me,it would all do your head in if i tried to explain it all.

anyone can have any kind of fetish, as long as it does not harm anyone else there is no reason to be worried about it.

for those who may not know what teratophilia and paraphilia are:
http://en.wikipedia.or g/wiki/Teratophilia
http://en.wikipedia.org/ wiki/Paraphilia

As long as you are not harming a non-consensual person then whatever arouses you arouses you.

thanks.I am harmless with mine.
I discovered it's not Teratophilia,it's just an interest that's a bit different,nothing big.
I'll put a pic in my avatar and maybe someone can tell me if the interest is abnormal or not.

all this talk of 'normal' and 'abnormal', it's ok, let it go! me personally i think it is unusual, but unusual does not mean bad. whatever floats your boat! anyone who doesnt share your desires is more likely to have a sense of humour about it than to think you are strange. try to be lighthearted about it! it is something that makes you unique and individual.

i've spoken to some people who are exactly the same as me,about several of them,so i don't feel as unusual now Mr.
Green i'm not the only one,so that's a relief.

And you're so young, your sexuality will change and grow. At least you understand what you like!

And of course women get fetishes!

Is my interest a fetish? I just keep wondering if it's a paraphilia/fetish or whatever.

It could be, yes. But fetishes are kind've on a range- most people have a fetish to some extent, and some people have them more strongly.

It's common to have some kind of fetish. For some girls, it's cowboys. For you, it's different. That's all.

You're the only one who can decide if it's a particular fetish or not. But really, you like what you like, who cares what it's called!

Ok Im not clear do you need it to get off sexually or it is just an interest not to do with sex?

I did some research and it said that Paraphilia is actually quite common! The only Paraphiliacs which are considered abnormal are those where the individual acts upon their urges (e.g. pedophiles and rapists etc...)e.g those who are a threat to society or those who fantasize about the Prepubescent(even if the individual isn't a threat,it's still uncommon).

The info i gathered looks like i have the harmless and more common side to unusual fetishes/Paraphilia. Smile
I seem to be getting better as well over the past 2 days surgery Mr.

you're still. very young to be getting so worried over it. me personally my fetishes have not changed from my childhood... for as long as i can remember. but many people find that what turns them on when they are younger they may grow out of, or it may grow into different interests. if it is what you like and it is harming noone then just enjoy it while you can and stop worrying!
