Sexual fetish publication
A fetish magazine is a type of
magazine originating in the late 1940s which is devoted to
sexual fetishism . The content is generally aimed at being
erotic rather than
pornographic . Fetish magazines are usually devoted to a specific fetish, such as
leather fetishism ,
rubber and PVC fetishism ,
cross-dressing ,
bondage ,
sadomasochism ,
female domination ,
sexual roleplay ,
corporal punishment , etc. Much of the content in fetish magazines is baffling to people who do not share the particular fetishes discussed and depicted.
The most well-known early examples are Bizarre (1946-1959) published by
John Willie and Leonard Burtman's
Exotique , Masque, Connoisseur, Bizarre Life, High Heels, Unique World , and Corporal .
An early study,
The Undergrowth of Literature by
Gillian Freeman (1967), concluded that such magazines provide a catharsis for those whose sexual needs are otherwise unsatisfied:
[1] she identified
rubberwear magazines as the most popular at the time.
