Three Greatest SFW Fetishes By Trudy Cooper & Ryan North, published April 7, 2015, ohjoysextoy.com/three-greatest-sfw-fetishes-by-trudy-ryan
Trudy Cooper draws with in a cartoony style with clean lines and fine details. The color palette is hues of lavender against black line work.
Narration: You know what's weird? Lots of things! But here's one of them: We don't know where fetishes come from!
Three scientists debate hotly amongst each other, gesturing at a dry erase board that has "Fetishes: Normal variations of human sexuality" emblazoned across the top. Beneath the title reads a handwritten, "Check Wikipedia?" and then below that is a list reading, "Imprinting, Association, Partialism" with each word scribbled out.
Narration: We've got theories, but no decisive facts.
Narration: One theory is it's triggered by something in childhood...
A young person is shown in a hospital bed with their leg cast elevated in a sling. As the young person looks at a nearby nurse who is distracted writing on their own clipboard, the kid says, "Hmm..." thoughtfully.
Narration: Which leads to an erotic fasciation as an adult.
The previous young person is now fully grown up and at a costume party! Their fashionable chocker and tattoos peek out from the nurse's costume they're wearing as they eye up another party-goer who is also dressed as a nurse. "Hmmm...!" They think to themself with a hungry look in their eye.
Narration: Others argue that, much like sexualities, each of us is born with all the fetishes we'll ever have.
At the hospital, a couple eagerly holds out their arms to receive their newly born infant who is being passed to them by their doctor.
"Congratulations!" The doctor exclaims. "It's a baby!"
Now holding up a futuristic DNA reader scanner the size of a clipboard, the doctor continues, "...Who in two decades is eventually going to be having a heck of a lot of fun!" The scanner reads,
"Will eventually be into:
• Roleplay
• BDSM
• Feet
• Noses
• Butts
• Leather
• Pleather
• 50/50 Polymer blend

Narration: But I've personally known people who have cultivated fetishes in adulthood, ending up being big into lots of stuff they didn't originally have any interest in.
A patron stands at a re-purposed movie theater concession stand, but all the menu items have been replaced with types of fetishes. What was once a soda machine now dispenses lube and various sex toys and accoutrements are displayed on the wall like candy. The cashiers wear bondage and fetish gear as they ring up people's orders on the checkout terminals. The patron gazes up hungrily at one of the overhead menus, their tongue sticking out in concentration and their pointer finger pressed to their chin. The menu reads:
"Fetishes:
Autopushophilia
Dendrophilia
Formicophilia
[indecipherable]-ismaphilia
[indecipherable] -acrophilia
Melognia
Microphilia
Oculonctus
Olfactophilia
Sthenolagnia
Trichophilia"
And another sign advertises, "Deal of the Week! Choose any three for the price of two!"
Narration: Usually this was because of wanting to be giving and game with a partner!
A person is in the act of climbing into bed with their partner, who holds up a pair of fuzzy handcuffs and asks, "I thought it'd be fun if you tied me up."
"Hmm... I guess!" Replies the first partner gamely.
Caption: Three weeks later:
The person holding the handcuffs from before is now reading a large bondage guide in bed, saying, "I thought it'd be fun if you t--"
"Waaaaaay ahead of you." Their previously inexperienced partner finishes, already dangling from the ceiling upside down in a suite of elaborate Shibari rope bondage.
Narration: How do you know what you're into unless you've seen if before, right? So whether you're looking to cultivate a new fetish, or merely hoping to trip over one you never even know you had, let's go over... The Three Greatest -
The word "FETISHES" explodes across the page dramatically.
Narration: That I guess are safe for work, because you can totally watch them on YouTube.
Page 3
Narration: First up: Body Inflation
A person enthusiastically uses a bicycle tire pump that is attached to their sleeve to pump up their shoulder-area to be three times bigger than their head.
Narration: This is where you get turned on by people being inflated like balloons. This is not possible in real life (surprise!) but you can simulate it with balloons under your clothes.
The person has now so successfully inflated their clothing that they are flying away through the air like a giant beachball in the wind as they continue happily pumping away on their little bike pump.
Narration: And there's nothing wrong with a fetish that can't be realized in reality! Why should we restrict our imaginations to only what reality has to offer, anyway?
Narration: Amazingly, as long as everyone whose body is inflating keeps their clothes ob, this flies under YouTube's radar.
A serious-looking worker in the Censoring Department wears a collared shirt and tie while intently watching a video of the afore-mentioned inflated person who is floating away through the sky. The worker holds a clipboard with a paper reading: "Porn" and "Not Porn", each with a checkbox beside them. The worker puts a check next to "Not Porn"
Narration: It seems the YouTube censors are all...
The censor leans back in their chair, leaning the clipboard against their chest as they clasp their hands behind the back of their head. They look at the censoring screen with a critical, yet weary, look. "Why, this isn't sex!" They declare. "This is just close-up expansion shots, all animated with the same obsessive focus on the mechanics of such an act, much like you'd see in the porn I'm familiar with! Maybe it's a demo reel or something, I dunno.
Narration: But it's TOTALLY SEX.
Narration: This means there's tons of apparently safe-for-work body inflation videos available! Check them out: You might discover a new fetish!
A cop shakes their fist a hot air ballon that escapes across a city skyline, shouting, "He's getting away in that hot air balloon! We'll never get him now!"
"Never fear, partner!" A fellow cop says, clapping their hand on their partner's shoulder. "What that malevolent miscreant fails to realize is that I'M just getting my second... WIND!" In the next instant, the cop has inflated like a beachball with a "FFFRRRREEEERRP!" sound effect, taking to the sky after the hot air balloon.
The original cop watches on, looking pleasantly shocked and blushing as they murmur to themself, "Oh. Oh wow.", while shyly pressing their fingertips to their parted lips.
Page Four
Narration: Next up: Microphilia and/or Macrophilia!
A middle-aged person smiles down devilishly at the teacup the hold in their hand. Inside it soaks a naked tiny person, smiling back and saucily showing off a leg.
Narration: This is where you love the idea of a tiny tiny person or a giant. Again: Totally impossible but also totally easy to fake using Photoshop, or by setting your video camera low to the ground to film a tiny person's POV shots as "giants" walk around!
A nude person with short hair and facial piercings rests their chin in one hand and gazes contentedly at the tiny orgy happening in their other outstretched hand.
Narration: Again, as long as everyone keeps their clothes on, YouTube censors will totally assume this isn't porn. But even if YouTube is blocked, the nice thing about being into shrinking people is that you can make your own images really easily!
Over the shoulder of a person, we see their desktop file manager, which lists a tree of folders reading:
"Computer: (C:): My Pictures: Not Porn: Seriously, No Porn Here!!: Porn: Pictures Taken with my partner's consent to be used for this exact purpose: OHBABY.JPG"
The camera pulls back to review that this person is in their cubicle at work, and they take a quick look over their shoulder to ensure that their coworkers are occupied with their own work.
Back over the shoulder of this office worker, they bite their tongue as they look at the OHBABY.JPG photo of their sweetie, who reclines nude among pillows and looks at the camera seductively. A pop-up box appears partially over the photo reading, "Shrink Image by 10000%." with a "Cancel" and "OK" button. The cursor hovers over the "OK" button.
Blushing in pleasure, the office worker rests their chin in their hands as they devour the image with their eyes and laugh to themself, "Hah Hah Hah! Thanks, my sexuality!"
Page Five
Narration: And finally: Wetlook!
A fully clothed person stands under a shower head that's raining down on them at full blast as steam clouds up around them. Their eyes are closed and they look so, so happy.
Narration: Wetlook is when fully-clothed people get soaked.
Narration: Thanks to its focus on everyone keeping their clothes on, Wetlook is the truly invisible fetish. That megamix of "Conga Line Tumbles Into the Pool" movie clips? TOTAL WETLOOK.
A fully-clothed line of conga-goers tips into a swimming pool like a line of dominos.
Narration: And as long as those poor, sheltered censors think sex has to involve people getting naked, ,you'll always have Wetlook on YouTube!
Narration: If you didn't know about Wetlook you might not even realize you're watching porn! It's just people getting into water, right?
A video clip plays, showing a bride and groom in full regalia about groin-deep in a swimming pool. The bride's skirt balloons around her from the captured air. "Oh no, I'm getting into this pool fully clothed, which is technically more acceptable than a bathing suit under YouTube's acceptable content policies!" Announces the bride.
Now chest-deep, the married couple splash each other dramatically.
"Oh nooooo, now my suit is getting soaked too!" Announces the groom. "Water's getting all over my fully clothed body! My look will be so wet when this is filmed in slow motion!"
"AGREED." Agrees the bride.
Narration: Feel free to look up any of these fetishes at work! If your boss gets mad, tell 'em Google- a respected multinational corporation with access to most of humanity's knowledge- implicitly said it was okay!
The scientists from the first page have resolved their earlier argument by making out with each other and flinging their research on fetishes to the side.
Narration: And if that doesn't work, tell 'em we said it was okay too!
Narration: We're internet cartoonists with nothing left to lose!
Ryan North, the author, uses a bike pump to inflate an enormous dinosaur with a toothy smile to match his own, while Trudy Cooper, the artist, looks with excited fascination through a microscope at a slide labeled "DWARVES".
Caption The End!
