Funny fetish - How weird out of 100?

64 replies

Laburnum1981 · 31/12/2023 08:51

Not sure what this post is. I suppose I just want to mention it to someone to understand how massively weird it is!

I have a FWB. It’s been going on for a year or so, and it’s working out great. We’re both divorced with DCs, met through work, and manage to get together every few weeks for what I consider brilliant fun. I have lots of friends, a busy life with work and the kids, but this relationship completely fills my missing needs. I’m lucky.

After a few meetings I asked if he had anything he wanted to try. I’m not massively experienced. He is my 5th partner ever and my first since the end of a 17 year faithful relationship that became my marriage.

He said that he… had a bit of an armpit fetish!

He could’ve said he wanted hardcore S&M, or me to wee on him or whatever. So I know it could be worse. I was surprised but said ‘OK’ and let him do what he wanted to do which was basically lick them! He really got into it, I wasn’t bothered either way. Gave me no great pleasure but was fine I suppose. Nice to see him enjoy himself.

I’ve since asked him more about this. Apparently the attraction is hard to describe but might be because it’s a ‘hidden’ bit of me that’s normally covered (by my arm, I guess, unless I raise it). It’s not to do with hair or smell (thank God - cos I’m not stopping shaving or washing!).

Since that first time he’s spent a couple of frantic minutes licking my armpits every time. He knows I always shower before we meet and he’s asked that I don’t put deodorant on so that he doesn’t taste it. I’m fine with this cos I’m fresh out of the shower and just put it on afterwards.

Last time he was getting so into it that I asked if he wanted to ejaculate into my armpit and he said yes and then did! He seemed very grateful afterwards.

How weird is all this? My friends don’t know of this man’s existence let alone this fetish. Is he the only man in England with it, or has anyone else encountered it?

I’m fine with it so long as it doesn’t go much further. I just think it’s so odd! I feel like I need one back! Maybe he elbows? Ha!

Well, now that it HAS been 'dug up'

im going to ask @Laburnum1981 for an update! Please!

Ah, who dug this up!

Oldseagull · 13/10/2024 22:20

I'm incredibly ticklish, so if someone did frantically lick away at my armpits for a few minutes I may well piss myself.

Whatever unfortunate man it was might find it a bit hard to get in the mood with a woman who is cackling like a maniac.

And also yes , you sweat out curry and garlic. Also fish , and asparagus and sugar puffs and other foods make your urine and semen smell/ taste of those things.

Sugar Puffs??!! Hahaha. How do you know that?! 😂

BoobyDazzler · 31/12/2023 19:51

I should probably name change for this but I’ve had a could of glasses of Prosecco so I can’t be bothered.. I quite like men’s armpits, especially if they’ve been working hard and are a (little!) bit smelly. I’ve even been known to lick. I wouldn’t go as far as to call it a fetish, I mean I’m not wanking over armpits or anything but it’s something I like.

I think this could end up like a Pavlov’s dogs thing. So when you break up and meet the one, you may only get turned on if he starts licking your armpit which will probably make him feel 😷

Almost certainly. I can see it now - I’ll be fully clothed apart from a small hole in my jumper under the arm, and I’ll stand doing the ironing whilst he does his business. What man could resist?

Some of these replies are making me chuckle, thanks!

Glad to read that this isn’t the first step towards gimp suits and branding his initials on my bum!

As for the two guys who’ve private messaged me about this. Do one. 🙄

Dying here

No!

Ah OP!!!

Chancing idiots.

Tanfastic · 31/12/2023 12:54

I've been around the block a bit but this is new on me! I don't think it's especially weird but I don't think I could indulge it. I'm pretty vanilla though 😂.

If he likes it and you don't mind it then carry on op 😂

YouStupidGirl · 31/12/2023 12:46

It’s a pretty tame one really isn’t it? Wouldn’t bother me but would be a bit ticklish.

I have a dh who has asked for much weirder things than that so I’m probably a bit blasé about armpit-licking.

I think it probably means a lot to him that you've not judged him and that you've let him be open with it

LakeTiticaca · 31/12/2023 12:29

I'm not a prude and I know some couples do have kinks/fetishes and that is fine but this armpit licking thing is really giving me the ick 🤣🤣

statetrooperstacey · 31/12/2023 12:27

Yea I’ve come across this , it’s really common .

Bluelightbaby · 31/12/2023 12:07

I have an armpit fetish. OMG love them and my OH smell (not strong bo) I also have a major fetish over hands and he sends me hands photos - he thinks I’m crazy weird 🤣

BigHoops · 31/12/2023 12:03

'Nice to see him enjoying himself' 😂that did make me laugh!

I'd say as fetishes go, it's harmless (or armless??) enough. The issue would be if it takes over everything else and over rides your own enjoyment though. I would worry my pits are too stubbly though!

Sleepsleepsleep123 · 31/12/2023 12:03

There's a rumour Hugh Grant has the same fetish...

pickledandpuzzled · 31/12/2023 12:03

@mumsytoon of course! Haven’t you noticed?

I totally smell of what spices or garlic I’ve been eating- not my mouth, my skin.

If you live where people don’t use dairy, you may notice people smell of sour milk when you return to dairy consumers!

It’s normal.

Addictedtohotbaths · 31/12/2023 11:59

I knew someone would have an issue with that. Yes I stank and I don’t usually smell so strongly.

KT8282 · 31/12/2023 11:56

Out of 100 as originally asked? I’d give it a 5. Not sure if it would give me the ick or not if my husband requested it, I suspect not. I think fetish requests largely depend on who’s asking and how.

AngelaAnacondaHeyHello · 31/12/2023 11:55

If I eat curry my sweat smells of curry too. It's a thing.

mumsytoon · 31/12/2023 11:51

Addictedtohotbaths · 31/12/2023 09:21

My ex liked to do this until one day it was post curry and I stank and he was nearly sick!

Sorry but this is utter rubbish. Are you saying that people who eat curry stink after?

JamSandle · 31/12/2023 11:49

Sounds pretty mild/tame. Armpits are a huge source of pheromones.
