Are Fetishes Normal?

“Am I sexually normal?”

This is a more common question than you might think. Most people want to know that they fall within the sexually ‘normal’ spectrum, and that whatever is going through their mind when they’re fantasising is acceptable. In all honesty, there really is no normal when it comes to sex; we are all different in our sexual desires and kinks. As long as there’s mutual consent, plenty of communication and you are both safe, it really doesn’t matter what gets you going. Continue reading Are Fetishes Normal?

The Growing Interest in Cosplay Sex

Uniforms have, for many years, been a major staple of the Irish kinky scene. Sexy ladies in nurses uniforms or French maids outfit’s have for a long time got guy’s pulses racing, causing a real explosion in the bedroom.

It is no surprise then that, as peoples interests change, the love of uniform sex has developed and become even more popular. This is the case with ‘cosplay’, and as a result, ‘cosplay sex’.

Cosplay, for those who don’t know, is an activity where participants wear costumes or accessories to represent a specific character or idea from a work of fiction. There is a section of the ‘cosplay community’ who concentrate on characters with sex appeal. Consequently, how can that fail to become a source of much fun?

Many Different Genres

The favourite genres for cosplay are manga, anime, comic books, video games and films. This may create a perception that people who do this kind of stuff are ‘nerds’. However, when you think about it, look at the popularity of the superhero movies such as ‘Batman’ and ‘Superman’, are they really minority interests? Of course not; geek is the new cool.

Originally a Japanese phenomenon, cosplay has become increasingly popular in the United States, where the San Diego Comic-Con is the largest convention for fans of the genre. The largest in Britain is the London MCM Expo, whilst the biggest one in Europe is the Japan Expo in Paris.

But as we said before, it didn’t take long for this whole scene to take on a kinky sexual nature. It is no surprise really, considering that for years men have lusted after cartoon characters such as Wilma Flintstone or Jessica Rabbit. Guys always wished they were real, so in the end, is it any surprise that they would be excited by a hot young woman in a sexy cosplay outfit? I am only surprised it has taken so long to catch on.

For men there are costumes that can express their masculinity, such as Superman or the Incredible Hulk. A muscly guy can get many a woman horny, especially if he is playing a strong character. In the bedroom however, neither partner needs to be a supermodel or Mr Universe, due to the fact that the fantasy is the important thing, not the reality.

Obviously like any other sexual interests, the porn industry has grasped onto the cosplay culture, with many scenes featuring cosplay sex. As with all these things, it is a big circle; The more people see it in porn, the more it will give them ideas in the bedroom.

Fifty Shades of Kinky

Now when I say fascinating, let’s not pretend it is a literary masterpiece. For the most part I found it poorly written. Not as badly written as The Da Vinci Code by Dan Brown which I consider drivel, but like the now Hollywood blockbuster, the subject matter has really struck a chord with the modern generation.
