Some kinks seem equally popular (or unpopular) across the genders - I've seen both men and women express interests in leashes, flogging, wax play, needles, cages and gags, to mention just a few off the top of my head.
Other kinks, however, seem to be really skewed towards one gender. I've never personally encountered a woman who was interested in scat (at least on the receiving end). I've only come across one woman who was into worshiping someone's feet. I've never met a woman who expressed an interest in the giant(ess) fetish. It tends to be males who want to be kept in chastity or who get some kind of pleasure from believing themselves to be sexually inadequate and unable to please a partner.
Now I know, before everyone reminds me, that there are some women out there wearing chastity belts and worshiping their partner's feet. And I'm not in any way belittling anyone's choice of kink - I'm a big believer in people finding happiness and fulfillment in whatever way they can. What I really want to know is, why? Is there something in our genetic make up or cultural environment that makes certain kinks more appealing to one gender?
I notice that all the kinks I've listed tend to be on the submissive end of the spectrum, but obviously being submissive isn't a predominantly male thing. I'd be happy to discuss any examples of top/dominant type kinks that sway towards one gender or the other.
I'd also be interested to hear if anyone can think of any predominantly female kinks - I can't think of any right now.
Huh, here I was thinking that scat was a largely female kink, which I chalked up to biology, i.e., we think of women as being romantic, but they fucking bleed every month, squeeze entire human bodies out their sweet little cootchies, change diapers on the young, the sick, the elderly, etc., i.e., it does possibly give one a more philosophical view of things, if anything, I think men are actually more sentimental fools.
Brain don't have any genitalia, but I think men are freakier in general, and about weirder shit, women adapt to it, thank god.
Shoes. Women are more likely to obsess over shoes, but I don't know how exclusive that is, I had a shipmate musta had a hundred pair of the fuckn' things, hell, I spent my childhood in ked's, and my toes are all distorted and fucked up, my arches always on the verge of collapse, so I have at least 20 pair myself.
