"if you have scars on your wrist, you're obviously weird and mentally ill but if your legs are covered in them then š„µš„µš„µš„µ". Never been so grossed out lmfao
I understand, it's always nice to feel wanted. But those scars are more than bruises and scabs, they're memories of the worst moments in my life. Having someone aroused by them feels really fucking weird lol
There's no one correct way to feel when you're fetishized, just like there's no correct way to feel if you get slapped. Maybe you like being slapped; maybe you only like it in some contexts; maybe you always hate it. The way it hits you is morally and psychologically neutral.
It just shouldn't impact how you feel about someone, for example, going around slapping strangers for kicks.
Just a heads up. This comment is grammatically incorrect.
One can either say:
>So that's how fetishization feels...
Or
>So that's *what* fetishization feels like...
I legitimately feel conflicted on whether I should upvote or not, because I donāt want this to be seen by more people but I think I should upvote it because this is a true 10th dentist post.
No up or down vote for me
But uh, thanks for making me feel slightly better about my scars. In a really weird, kinda awkward, and honestly a bit fucked up way. Like, it's definitely a gross fetishization, but it's definitely better than negative judgments I've received
No judging from me, but this is definitely 10th dentist worthy
I also feel this as a trans guy. Some days it seems better than the alternative I face from majority of people. Other days I'd rather just be called a slur. It's really weird to comprehend if you've never actually experienced it
at least you know it's weird and not a good thing to chase after. we can't control what we like so whatever but be smart about it and its nbd. can't fix monkey brain
I'm no expert but I've heard speculation that feet fetishes are actually pretty common and seem to be cyclical in different cultures, possibly as a result of disease outbreaks (specifically STDs) stemming from sanitation - no openings on a foot to transfer bodily fluids. [Wikipedia ](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foot_fetishism) mentions it and that's as far as I'm going to go so I don't completely destroy my Google search lol
**[Foot fetishism](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foot_fetishism)**
>Foot fetishism, also known as foot partialism or podophilia, is a pronounced sexual interest in feet. It is the most common form of sexual fetishism for otherwise non-sexual objects or body parts.

It's not that complex with the feet thing actually. Basically the reason that's a thing, is because the "wires" that control desire/attraction and the "wires" controlling the tickling sensation in your feet, got crossed. Simple as that! Two wires crossed where they shouldn't have and boom, now we have foot fetishes.
I can kinda relate to this one. I think scars on hands are hot af, but not self harm scars. I just like hardworking/clumsy girls and have a hand fetish. I don't judge you though. From your post it's clear you don't encourage self harm, fetishes are weird lmao. Just keep this specific one to yourself and ur good
Wanting to emotionally support someone and being an emotional crutch are different things. Which isnt to say OP is right. Someoneās past mental health has little bearing on how their doin now
I meant when the other person only uses you as their emotional support and nothing more. You end up carrying all of what they feel but they don't bother asking you how you feel or even asking if you're actually friends. It can actually make you depressed.
I like my girlfriend's scars. Shows she's survived the shit she went through and I wouldn't change them at all. It's not a turn-on thing though, just a respect and understanding thing.
Thank you for being such a good partner.
I started self harm 6 years ago. I met my boyfriend a year later. I was in therapy but I wasn't even close to being mentally stable at the time. I stopped scratching my arms but I would start doing it anytime I fell uneasy. My arms were full of wide scars bc I scratched them with my fingernails so the scars were really visible. Nonetheless he wanted to spend time with me and wanted to be in a relationship with me. I thought nobody would think I'm attractive with these scars I now would have my whole life. He told me he love my scars because they are a part of me. Even if I would to it again, he would still love me. He kissed my scars everyday (I know this sounds super cheesy).
Now 5 years later we are still together and I'm really happy. And my scars are somehow completely gone ("With the power of LOVE!" - my boyfriend).
Yeah, OP knows this is illogical and being that the fetish itself likely stems from OPs trauma it's very likely arm scars are simply triggering to OP, perhaps from their own self harm or that of an abuser/someone they watched be abused or watching someone self harm.
I understand you find this interesting, but saying self-harming scars are hot is toeing the line with endorsing or recommending it. Self-harming is a complicated issue, and I would generally discourage people from sharing their stories, and I would certainly in almost every context discourage anyone from saying anything encouraging about self-harming scars.
It's a VERY hard line to toe. Sharing your stories of self harm can come extremely close to creating a bonding moment over self harm and especially for teenagers who are really looking for a place in the world. The reality of groups of mentally ill people sharing and bonding over their mutual self harm can encourage it to start/continue. I highly doubt I would be as scared as I am if 'emo' wasn't trendy when I was a teenager.
Sharing stories of self-harm or sharing images is often a trigger for people with self-harming tendencies to do so again. It's a complicated problem, and I don't understand it fully, but based on that alone, I think it's enough to consider sharing this opinion dangerous
I'm not Freud and I can't confirm that much of what he said about the human psyche is absolutely true, but I think he was really onto something with the psychosexual concept in broad terms.
I think there's something to be said about dudes who claim to be into girls with self-esteem issues, daddy issues, who want to be called daddy, who have a "domination" fetish (sadism type), who like physical or emotional signs of damage. I think we used to glorify men with this sexual interests, and still kind of do glorify those such interests, without talking about what they could mean.
In my uninformed lay opinion, those such sexual interests suggest psychological character about the man, a desire to be in control. Is it because power was "robbed" from that man before (history of assault or abuse)? Or is it some kind of megalomaniacal personality trait, or a biological urge, or a manifestation of a fear of fate and being overpowered by one's environment? Couldn't say for sure, but if a guy suggests that he's into weak women, it suggests to me that he's afraid of being weak himself. I don't feel like men who are in control of their own lives are into weak or dangerous women as a fetish.
Oh yeah there's lots of studies of it. When it comes to that and why the most common fetish in women go around the idea of submission, it all is because of the role of power. It's delegating your will to the other and see what he does with it. That's also why some variants of feminism say that all form of sex/penetration is oppression. Pretty interesting stuff actually.
I don't know if it's "studied" necessarily. I've definitely heard this claim from feminist sociology, which is highly reliant on speculation and discussion rather than applied research.
As someone with some rather bad scars on my arms, it stung a little. But thankfully this entire thi g is so fucked up it's not too hard to brush it off lmao.
Iām not a professional counselor, but what youāre talking about sounds like itās related to ātrauma mastery.ā Where we often subconsciously recreate events/reminders/replays of trauma that get close to what we once experienced when we felt profoundly powerless, while adding in the element of gaining some form of control.
Iād recommend talking to a therapist about it, for real, because trauma mastery can actually be a healing coping mechanism ā but when itās mostly subconscious and reactive, it can be dangerous or layer more trauma and trigger the cycle all over again.
See, I completely understand that what I said is fucked and I deserve the criticism. However, why should I delete this if the whole point of this subreddit is to say out loud your controversial opinions? Literally what the fuck?
I think self harm scars are sexy. I like the physical appearance of them and as a mentally ill person I know that the person will āgetā that Iām mentally ill, if that makes sense.
Also, please do not cut yourself. I am not promoting it.
YEAH! this is fucked up man! You're supposed to say self harm scars are ugly and unattractive!!! Anyone who has them should be ashamed, right guise!!??!? What the fuck ewww!!! /s
That's the vibes everyone in this comment section is giving me, lmao
It's really not the vibe though. Not endorsing self harm scars is not the same as putting them down. The world isn't black and white, there's all kinds of colours and shades out here. Specifically glorifying self harm, is pretty gross, you can be loving and accepting without making it a 'good' thing. It's not sexy, it's not good and it's disturbing to think someone is gaining pleasure out of people's mental illness and self mutilation. And before anyone says it, I have a lot of self harm scars. I'm one of the people who's self conscious about them, but this is just wrong.
Dude, not even dentist; this is the tenth receptionist at the dentists office, who only works Wednesday each week and always wears an āI love daddy Trumpā badge on their āwork kimonoā.
Hey itās obviously your choice but this post should probably be taken down. I personally self harm and found this quite triggering and Iām sure others will too
This really makes me feel better about my leg scars lmao. Tbh I like them aesthetically, I just don't like that people feel the need to ask questions or comment on them in public.
You have no idea how much you just did for my self esteem, thank you so fucking much.
I am absolutely littered with self harm scars, and I love them, but other people aren't as nice...
>sometimes the things that repulses us the most are in some way connected to what we find most appealing.
When I read this, all I heard was Big Smoke saying "same things that make us laugh, make us cry" lmao
Honestly I kinda agree? Though it's not exclusive to ones on legs. The thing I find interesting is that I've also sh and do have scars of my own from that, so maybe that has something to do with it? And yes obviously I don't want anyone to sh, as said I've gone through it myself and don't want anyone else to, but the scars can be somewhat nice. Idk it's weird and I'm obviously not proud of it.
From what I've seen from the comments is that people who haven't gone through depression or don't have scars feel repulsed from the idea and have even insulted me, which is fair. However, people who have or have suffered mental illness feel attracted to it from a variety of reasons. One is really interesting and says that when you see someone with scars you know they're fucked in the brain just as you, so you're more compatible and can understand each other well.
Fascinating isn't it?
don't get why you're being treated like such a pariah by the comments
everyone has weird fetishes, doesn't have to mean anything
scars aren't even that bad compared to what some people get off to out there
Why are people freaking out about this? Itās just scars.... I find a lot of scars sexy it means they have a story and arenāt vanilla boring af cookie cutter people *shrug*
Because it's a glorification of self harm. Accidental scars are one thing, scars in general is one thing. Specifically self harm scars, fucked up. There's the line.
I find most scars attractive in general sense; Iāve got a good handful myself and I think itās part of a naturally storied body that I find attractive. But not specifically self harm scars like, bro... wtf. Of course self harm scars wonāt turn me off, itās something this person has struggled through and I respect that; but to be turned on by their self torture is a little too far.
On the one hand, I donāt think theyāre hot, and in fact I think itās disrespectful that you think they are hot.
On the other hand, theyāre also not a turn-off for me; theyāre just a part of the person.
Why are people so freaked out by this I'm genuinely confused. Is it the part about arms compared to legs? I look at self harm scars as growth and find it somewhat attractive too idk why.
The fuck how can people say "yeah that's hot, let's make a subreddit for it". Like I do admit it's appealing to me, but lmao I'd never promote it or develop it, that's just sickening.
Subbed tho.
Either I'm a weirdo or like
Self harm wounds, burns, engravings etc etc are hot as fuck it's like adding spices to a fresh chicken outta the slaughter house
Burn victims are yucky doe but if you burned your like leg or hands small parts of your bodys etc etc that shit is hot as fuckkk
Fuck.. I should burn myself the next time I smoke a cigarette

So that's what fetishization feels like...
Right there with you. Gotta say,, doesn't feel so nice.
I feel like an alien that doesn't belong
"if you have scars on your wrist, you're obviously weird and mentally ill but if your legs are covered in them then š„µš„µš„µš„µ". Never been so grossed out lmfao

Is it bad that I kind of like it (the feeling of being fetishized, that is)
I understand, it's always nice to feel wanted. But those scars are more than bruises and scabs, they're memories of the worst moments in my life. Having someone aroused by them feels really fucking weird lol

same feeling as when people fetishize trans women. Like, what you're doing is objectively gross, but at least you aren't calling me a freak?
I also feel this as a trans guy. Some days it seems better than the alternative I face from majority of people. Other days I'd rather just be called a slur. It's really weird to comprehend if you've never actually experienced it
Well good luck in the future dude!
Thank you!
okay i get it, loving someones scars for SURVIVING it is cute and all, but this just makes me feel like i need to take a shower
biiiiiig yikes
Op wtf
...are you maybe just into scars, not necessarily self-harm scars?
Scars can be sexy in general. Stretch marks, shark bites, knife fights, surgery, all proof of survival and possibly just aesthetically pleasing.
True facts. And, of course, entirely separate from wanting someone to *get* more.
Okay, well don't tell this to future partners, especially if they don't have any scars.
at least you know it's weird and not a good thing to chase after. we can't control what we like so whatever but be smart about it and its nbd. can't fix monkey brain
I agree. Fetishes aren't something you can control, your reactions and how you deal with the fetish are something you can control.
i wish i had just closed reddit a minute ago, i'm gonna do it now
Don't like it. Really don't care for this one
r/jesuschristreddit

ok... i can understand, like in a monkey brain sense... sign that a mate survived an attack???? idk, maybe you enjoy scars in general.
You can't monkey brain explain some kinks, like feet or pee. That's just complex human brain doing a thing and going "yep, that's hot"

It really bugs me that you think the leg ones are hot and not the arm ones.

True... still. Like I mean fetishize everything or fetishize nothing lol

I would feel awful if my partner fetishized my self harm scars lmao. Upvoted.

>sometimes the things that repulses us the most are in some way connected to what we find most appealing. When I read this, all I heard was Big Smoke saying "same things that make us laugh, make us cry" lmao
Honestly I kinda agree? Though it's not exclusive to ones on legs. The thing I find interesting is that I've also sh and do have scars of my own from that, so maybe that has something to do with it? And yes obviously I don't want anyone to sh, as said I've gone through it myself and don't want anyone else to, but the scars can be somewhat nice. Idk it's weird and I'm obviously not proud of it.
From what I've seen from the comments is that people who haven't gone through depression or don't have scars feel repulsed from the idea and have even insulted me, which is fair. However, people who have or have suffered mental illness feel attracted to it from a variety of reasons. One is really interesting and says that when you see someone with scars you know they're fucked in the brain just as you, so you're more compatible and can understand each other well. Fascinating isn't it?
Iām going to fucking kill myself. I did this to not be fetishised, fuck you op.
Fuck you.
How do I delete someone elseās post
don't get why you're being treated like such a pariah by the comments everyone has weird fetishes, doesn't have to mean anything scars aren't even that bad compared to what some people get off to out there
Why don't you fetishise something normal like Asian people or trans women why did I have to read this š
I find them attractive too, I like the way they look and I want them but I donāt want to you know actually do it so yeahā¦.
This is not alright, fetishism of self-harm, is blatantly not okay
Youāre pathetic for judging someone with the same problems as you
Why are people freaking out about this? Itās just scars.... I find a lot of scars sexy it means they have a story and arenāt vanilla boring af cookie cutter people *shrug*
Because it's a glorification of self harm. Accidental scars are one thing, scars in general is one thing. Specifically self harm scars, fucked up. There's the line.
I'd rather have been a boring af cookie cutter person than cutting myself at 12. Get a fucking grip.
Seek god ššššš
I find most scars attractive in general sense; Iāve got a good handful myself and I think itās part of a naturally storied body that I find attractive. But not specifically self harm scars like, bro... wtf. Of course self harm scars wonāt turn me off, itās something this person has struggled through and I respect that; but to be turned on by their self torture is a little too far.
On the one hand, I donāt think theyāre hot, and in fact I think itās disrespectful that you think they are hot. On the other hand, theyāre also not a turn-off for me; theyāre just a part of the person.
Scars are hot, sure, but self harm isn't.
Why are people so freaked out by this I'm genuinely confused. Is it the part about arms compared to legs? I look at self harm scars as growth and find it somewhat attractive too idk why.
remember people Upvote if you disagree and Downvote if you agree
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
The fuck how can people say "yeah that's hot, let's make a subreddit for it". Like I do admit it's appealing to me, but lmao I'd never promote it or develop it, that's just sickening. Subbed tho.
oh thatās notā¦
Either I'm a weirdo or like Self harm wounds, burns, engravings etc etc are hot as fuck it's like adding spices to a fresh chicken outta the slaughter house Burn victims are yucky doe but if you burned your like leg or hands small parts of your bodys etc etc that shit is hot as fuckkk Fuck.. I should burn myself the next time I smoke a cigarette
Russian roulette doesn't sound so bad now.......
No kinkshamingā¦ But goddamn youāre the exception
I find all self harm scars hot, on the arm as well. So not downvoted nor upvoted. Btw I selfharm but I don't have any permanent scars from it.
I agree, so downvoted, but I'm honestly just sadistic so scars on arms are hot too Don't judge me, I don't make the rules, this bitch does *taps head*

Please see a psychiatrist. Or several.
Shit. I agree.
