Medical fetishism
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Medical fetishism is a paraphilia wherein the activities and paraphernalia of medicine are eroticised. Many observers believe that medical fetishism is the result of behavioral imprinting from childhood.[citation needed]
Typical medical fetishism scenarios include intimate examinations such as rectal examination, gynecological examination, rectal temperature taking, catheterization, enemas, injections, the insertion of suppositories, menstrual cups and prostatic massage.[citation needed] Dentistry and teeth are also a source of fetishes. Most noteworthy is dental braces fetishism, which is a form of sexual fetishism wherein a person is sexually aroused or stimulated by the sight, brushing, or feel of dental braces (particularly silver stainless steel braces, but sometimes retainers and headgear). Other medical devices are also fetishized, such as orthopedic casts and orthopedic braces in abasiophilia.
Another form of medical fetishism is surgical fetishism, which eroticises the idea of either performing surgery or having surgery performed on one's self. Even more specific is anesthesia fetishism which involves the procedures and devices used to administer general anesthesia, especially the mask used to administer gaseous anesthesia to a patient. These can be related to hypnofetishism or balloon fetishism (the latter likely because of the balloon-like 'rebreathing bag' often used when administering gaseous anesthesia).
