ORIGINAL: bacchas I have a fetish of which I am ashamed. I realize intellectually that it's fairly common, and that it's really not that unusual. One of my friends was going to throw a workshop for this fetish. While I realize I should be excited, I instead began to show physical signs of distress when I heard about it. How does one come to grips with a situation like this? Ask yourself.. what are the benefits to indulging in education and finding out about my fetish.. and what are the potential risks for doing the same thing? If the benefits outweigh the risk, then you should try to come to terms with your fetish and accept it as part of your desires/kink what have you. "Learning" about the desire is not engaging in it.. and once you 'learn' about it, you may find that engaging in it isn't so bad. Will there be some people who will look at your particular fetish as sick, weird or just plain wrong? Yes, of course. It's up to you to determine how much weight to give those opinions. You can choose to give it zero weight or you can choose to give it all the weight in the world.. but as soon as you do that, you are allowing someone else to determine the course of your life and lifestyle. 'An it harm none, do what you will. I wish you peace and serenity in coming to your decision .. which, ultimately, effects you and no one else. Celeste
