The idea of a "genital fetish" is self-contradictory

submitted by jim_steak from self.LGBDropTheT

A fetish is when something nonsexual arouses sexual desire in a person. For example, men who have a crossdressing fetish are aroused by wearing women's clothing, but it's not as if a skirt or a blouse is a sexual object in normal circumstances. Genitals, on the other hand, are a sexual part of the body, and therefore attraction to a certain set of genitals is just sexual attraction. It's really crazy to me that this is such a mainstream part of the TRA movement when thinking about the idea at all just really unravels the whole thing and shows how coercive and creepy "unlearning your genital fetish" really is.

When someone say any lesbian has genital fetish for liking cunt and gays have genital fetish for likes penis tell them that by saying that they’re implying that homosexuality is a fetish and that’s what homophobes have always said. See their reaction. Their SJW selfs glitch, is funny.

And also ask them why it's always homosexuals who seem to have fetishes and not straight people. Is it because they think straight people are exempt from having genital fetishes?

Then go on to ask if a transperson were to only want to be cis lesbian women and not trans women who might have a variety of genitals, would they also not be genital fetishists by TRA definition? Or do they have an exemption because they're trans?

Exactly this! They never go after straight people for genital fetish! Only us!

You can’t use logic and the meaning of words to argue with them. They will just keep flinging bullshit at you until you’re so buried you give up or drown.

Or they'll just call you a transphobe and the rest of the intellectually lazy will follow. Herd mentality is always in style in the TQ land!

Language means nothing to TRAs and SJWs in general. They only care about power.

But does that mean that gay men who do anal have an anus fetish? Since the anus is not a sex organ?

Of course, it would still be impossible for the penis part of the equation to be a fetish as, like you said, the penis is inherently a sex organ and so cannot be fetishized, but since there is no sex organ for it to enter, anywhere it goes would be a non-sex organ open to fetishization by this definition of fetish.

So, my knowledge is very low on anatomy, so take what I say with a grain of salt. But the anus, just like sex organs (penis or vagina), can be sexually stimulated. So for that reason, despite the anus not being inherently a sex organ, it has "characteristics" of a sex organ. I think for something to be a fetish, it has to do with something totally non sexual at all, where supposedly there's no reason for you to get turned on, yet you get turned on. Like someone else here mentioned, the AGP's. Dressing feminine isn't stimulating you in any way physically. But everyone is able to get sexually stimulated in their anus. It's simply how biology works. Hope this made sense lmaaao.

I thought only males have an anal g spot

I didn't talk about a g spot, I talked about anal sexual stimulation, which both sexes are capable of. Regarding specifics of anatomy, I won't know how to explain lmaaao.

I disagree, I think "Genital Fetish" can be real, just not in the way TRAs think. I'm only attracted to penises and I mean only, the thought of being with a man disgusts me and the only male I'd be comfortable with sexually or romantically has to check a long list of requirements, and basically look like a man, so dating/relationships are impossible for me. I am involuntarily turned on by penises, I didn't choose this, and it's not something I like nor enjoy having in my life. It's very stressful.

That is more like a "genital fetish", someone like me. However, if LGBT isn't willing to support the recovery & treatment of people like me, because they deem it "conversion therapy", then they have no fucking right to criticize me for having said "genital fetish" I can neither control nor EVER liked having.

Sure some people are creepy about their fetishes and seem to enjoy them, even when they're hurting others, but I think there's a whole chunk of people like us who would give anything to be free from it. It's disgusting that some people will shame me for my "fetish" and act like I'm deliberately choosing to have it out of bigotry, when they don't realize that I hate it more than they do, and if I could choose to get rid of it and have a health relationship with a woman, I would without hesitation.
