The
Magic of Leather and Sex
There would be hard to determine
when the fetish for leather started and
how it developed into one of the world's most popular
and charming fetishes ever. Even for specialists
and sexologists, the fetish (sexual attraction
or interest for a specific inanimate object and/or body
part) is a mystery in itself. It seems might come connected
with the sensing of having a sort of "second skin-like"
feeling, would leather provide someone wearing
tight-fit, full-length, leather-clad. In addition,
fetishists might feel aroused by the smell or even
the feel of leather, or simply by the sound of
rubbed-leather.
Some researches suggest that
the magic of leather and sex would have
inherent connection with our primitive side, as in call
of the wild triggered by contact with game-hide. Truth
is that when associated with sex, leather
gets regarded as something luxurious, a fancy. A good
example would be its wide variety of fairs, exhibitions
and annual balls (or the so-called black parties). Particularly
in Europe and USA, people gathering from all over, who
share interest in leather, and obviously sex.
As for fairs, present contests divided in categories
such as the most tighten leather corsets, or
the leather outfit that covers the widest part
of the body. On which point demonstrates the connection
of leather with certain sex power games.
A common mistake when it comes
to sex and leather being that notion that
anyone into fetish for leather would be
into sadomasochism as well, or vice versa. Actually,
a sadomasochist may enjoy forms others than such
practice, as spanking or bondage, and
with no relation to leather. By the way, a person
may have a strong leather fetish but finds the
idea of pain during sex completely off-putting.
Surprisingly, certain leather
fetishists reported having experiences with the
object of fetish at a very early age, some even
at the age of 7 or 8 years old. It's a way before their
time for figuring out certain notions of sexuality
itself, let alone fetishism. This fact shows
the magic of leather and sex and the
sexuality of humans in general as fascinating as
mysterious subject.
