This question came to me when I was sitting in class yesterday. My friend was twirling his hair around his finger, as he always does, and the teacher told him to stop it and that that is the sign of a medical condition called "trichotillomania". She was right. Wikipedia even has an article about it. Now, this got me thinking. If there's a medical name for something so specific as twirling your hair around your finger, there must be names for my favorite fetishes. They are: 1) I love eating dick cheese. I love sucking off uncut boys who have gobs of it under their foreskins. 2) I have a major foot fetish, but i specifically love eating toe jam. The more and the smellier the better. But DIRTY feet turn me off, so its not related to dirt, just specifically to eating the toe jam. 3) I really get carried away by redheads. It's more than just a preference. It's a true fetish. I just melt into total submission before a cute redhead in a way that I don't before even the cutest guy with another hair color. Does anyone know the "medical" words for these fetishes. I'm sure they must exist if trichotillomania does. Of course, I don't think any of these fetishes are abnormal, just unusual. I'm really secure about my sexuality and my tastes, I just think it would be sort of neat to know the official terms for them. Yes, I know the foot fetish is called podophilia. It's the name for the toe jam fetish that I'm after (if it exists).
