International Fetish Day

International Fetish Day is an annual international holiday dedicated to fetishes. The main purpose of the holiday is to raise public awareness about the practice of BDSM, which has become increasingly popular in recent years. Many consider this a perverted form of sexual contact, but experts in the field of sexology note such a fetish as the highest form of trust between two partners.

History

The history of International Fetish Day begins in 2009 when it was for the first time. Its appearance is associated with a law that banned extreme pornography, which came into force on January 26 of the same year.

According to many people who are interested in fetishes, the law aimed not only to eradicate prohibited products of the porn industry but also to prohibit sadomasochism as such, regardless of the context.

During the celebration, various peaceful actions and rallies are held in support of fetishes and the acceptance of BDSM. It should be noted that this holiday is appropriate only for those who support it. If you do not identify with such a movement or are an ardent opponent, then simply skip this date for yourself.
