Talk:Pantyhose fetishism

message: I am opposed to this idea. Although to the outsider it might seem that they are similar fetishes with perhaps minor differences; to many, they are very separate. I don't mean to say that no one posesess both fetishes; I'm just saying there's a signficant amount on both sides who are interested in just one or the other. Although there hasn't been much mainstream research on the subject, unfortunately , I'd bet the reasons why a person has one fetish or the other are different too. 21:36, 29 July 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Suggestion to merge this article with Stocking Fetishism 

message: Interesting article. I think there are a lot of stereotypes and generalizations in this article.  I don't see pantyhose fetishism to be that weird, especially since pantyhose are a kind of underwear.
:I agree in general with the other comments made here, but I also take issue that this article seems to primarily focus on men wearing pantyhose, whereas there are so many other, more "mainstream" aspects to this fetish. I would wager the vast majority of pantyhose fetishists merely enjoy viewing others wearing pantyhose and/or prefer for their partner to be wearing it. There are also women who enjoy wearing pantyhose whom you might call a "fetishist", but this article has no room for them either. 07:10, 22 March 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Stereotypes and Generalizations 

message: I have experienced almost exactly what is described, with a few minor differences. I never really wanted to wear a specific pair of pantyhose; in fact I prefer brand new ones--preferably beige in color and control-top style. I also have a pair of Activskin  men's pantyhose. Sometimes I wear my pantyhose with shorts in public, to the library, hiking, etc. It is a unique thrill to do this, at first it can be quite nerve-racking. People do notice, but I have never had a negative response.
:Should this article include links to sites of the so-called pantyhose for men?  -70.160.166.121 23:31, 29 September 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Very insightful article 

message: I must say i was amazed by the amount of information given on such a subject that is almost unheard of. Sincerely, i am 15 now, and i had nylon fetishism when i was 3-4 years old. When i look back at the past, i laugh and cry at myself at the same time; i find it really silly for me to practise that habbit now, it is not of any interest to me now, and i experience totaly natural attractions to the opposite sex. My question is: Is my past attraction to pantyhose (nylon stockings) an early sign of homosexuality?, or is it just a natural childish kind of behaviour? It's totaly gone now, and as i mentioned above, until now, i don't have any same-sex tendency (thank God! i hope i won't, either!!) 
If any of you guys know, please answer my "fearful" question, as i would be really appreciative.
I will be checking this discussion often, looking for answers.
Thank you for whatever help offered!!

I think people have this misconception about this fetish (specifically the wearing of pantyhose aspect of it, which I'm assuming is what you're talking about) that makes people assume they must be homosexual. Well, some people are and some people aren't; the assumption is false.
I must admit I've tried it too, but I know I'm also a straight person and I also love (and prefer) to see women wearing pantyhose. I had similar doubts when I was younger, but I'm older and wiser now, and confident in my sexuality. And I know I'm not alone; you can find similar accounts and websites across the internet if you look hard enough.
The same myth is associated with Transvestism, which is that people assume because they wear women's clothing, they must be gay, secretly or otherwise. That has also been demonstrated to be false.
*That has also been demonstrated to be false. LIllIi 23:34, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
