A fetish is a sexual desire or attraction to an unusual or unconventional object, activity, or body part. Fetishes can range from the relatively common, such as foot fetishism or hair fetishism, to the more unusual, such as object fetishism or animal fetishism.
The exact cause of fetishes is unknown, but it is thought to be a combination of biological and psychological factors. Some research suggests that fetishes may be related to early childhood experiences or trauma, while other research suggests that they may be caused by hormonal imbalances or genetic factors.
