Fetish Friday: Sitophilia

Hi everyone! Earlier today I was talking on the phone with my mom and somehow the subject of fetishes came up, and their diversities. I kept bringing up made up fetishes that involved food, which inspired today's Fetish Friday. What could possibly be better than sex and food? As it happens, fucking and eating are my favorite activities, and I know I'm not secluded in this. So here's a little info on those efficient lovers who have perfectly combined stomach cravings and boot knocking.

Today's Fetish: Sitophilia

Sitophilia is a form of food play. This fetish includes a few subcategories and adjacent branches. The main characteristics of this paraphilia is that it uses food either to enhance a sexual experience, whether ingested, poured/placed on the body, or used as a masturbatory aid.

When talking about food going inside you (the standard way), sitophiles may be aroused by the act of eating or the food itself. Some like to indulge in their fantasies by frequenting food hot spots like buffets, just as this guy explains. Other's use the actual food to pleasure themselves, something that was made easier by this invention:

In case you wanted to add a little more authenticity to your cucumbers and zucchinis

As I mentioned before, there is a range of specific subcategories to sitophilia. I'm not kidding when I tell you there are plenty to satisfy your sexual appetite:

• Figging: Commonly refers to anal play with ginger roots, many consider vaginal and urethra play as well.
• Nyotaimori & Nantaimori: Originated in Japan, it involves eating sushi off another person's body.
• Lactophilia: Breast milk fetish.
• Vorarephilia: While not really a subgenre of sitophilia or a type of food play, this fetish involves eating people, so that has to count for something, right?
• Sploshing: A kind of messy fetish that can include syrups, whipped cream, custard, chocolate, among other wet substances.
• Feederism: The attraction to overweight people and the impulse to feed them for sexual gratification.
• Wakamezake & Body Shots: You may think you like body shots, but these fetishists REALLY like them.

The nice thing about sitophilia that I've learned, is that it offers a lot of variety, and it's pretty convenient, seeing that you have everything you need at your local grocery store. Because it's so easily incorporated into "standard mainstream" sex, it's not seen as taboo in its most basic state. Not to mention, advertising companies have used the food/sex angle for years. Here are a few examples of food play in mainstream media.

Film:

• 9 1/2 Weeks: There is a scene where Kim Basinger and Mickey Rourke get freaky with the contents of a fridge.
• Sex & The City: As a Valentine's Day idea, Samantha rolls her own sushi and places it on her body to surprise Smith. Unfortunately, he stands her up, so we never get to actually see them eat it. It's the thought that counts, and it earns a place on this list.
• American Pie: You all know what scene I'm talking about, knock it off.

TV:

• Seinfeld: George gets involved with a woman and begins to experiment with food in the ninth season
• It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia: Likewise, Frank and Artemis are always finding some new creative way to use their perishables.
• Peta's 2009 Superbowl Commercial
• An array of Carl's Jr. ads are all about food love

Literature:

• Portnoy's Complaint: The titular character uses both an apple and a steak to pleasure himself.

Personally, I've never used any food in my love making, but I am not opposed to trying it out. Although, I'm pretty sure my version of sitophilia would probably consist of me eating an entire pizza while being bent over the coffee table...actually, that sounds pretty fucking awesome. Looks like I know what I'm doing this weekend! Now, excuse me while I go place a Domino's order. Meanwhile, all you snatch snackers and food fornicators, go get your freak on!

^Cause, fuck it, why not?

And if that's not enough, here's some porn.

Toy Tuesday Review: Pipedream Collar & Leash

Hey Guys! I'm here to ease you back into things with a Toy Tuesday Review, and it's one of my favorite toys ;)

Today's Review: Pipedream's Fetish Fantasy Gold Collar & Leash

Although very popular with masters and their subs, collars are a good option to try with your loved one if you're trying to get a little kinky. No BDSM 101 kit is complete without one. If you want more information on them, I wrote a post about them for you to catch up on. The following ratings are based upon Pipedream's version from their Fetish Fantasy Gold series.

Difficulty to use:
Very simple to use. The collar is similar to a belt or dog collar with various eyelets for adjustable length. The leash has a basic clip on fastener.

Versatility:
As beautiful as the product is, it's a pretty standard design, doesn't lend itself to get creative with. Put around the neck and let the fun begin.

My Rating:
This is the fun part. I loved the collar. I decided to surprise my boyfriend with it, so I got ready; hair, makeup, outfit, the whole nine. As soon as he came home, I was waiting for him on my knees, with the collar on. It was definitely worth the wait to see his face when he saw the new toy.
The collar itself is very comfortable; the outside is crafted to look like crocodile skin, with a gold metal ring for the leash to attach to, and the inside is velvet soft. It's thick but comfortable enough to wear for a longer period of time.
The leash is very delicate. A thin golden chain, with a loop on the end, similar to the chain's croc design. Because of this, I wouldn't recommend using this product during rough sex, but it's a great toy to use for beginners or sub/dom play. I would definitely recommend it, especially to all you ladies whose interests were peaked because of the upcoming Fifty Shades of Grey movie. Guaranteed your man will appreciate the surprise.


His Rating:
He said he would give the surprise factor a 5, but functionality a 3.5, so I'm rounding it to a 4. He also said he enjoyed leading me around with it, so we'll definitely be using it again soon :)

I still exist!

Holy crap, guys! I just realized I haven't written since May. Sorry about that. Don't worry, I haven't forgotten about you and I'm still working at the sex shop, I just got caught up in all the summer fun :)

Hope you guys have been having a good time too!

Here's a picture of my new bookends (I wish) to hold you over until Fetish Friday.

See you soon!
