But what it made me wonder is this:<br /><br />Do people with these fetishes find ordinary stuff gross to them? Would someone who has your Rubber Mask Fetish think that my finding Lucy Lawless hot is "gross?" Or do they just say "Man, I don't get why you think Lucy Lawless is hot without her wearing a rubber mask and being covered in bugs while crashing a car."<br /><br />About which: I bet Lucy Lawless would still be hot, even in that scenario.<br /><br />Lucy Lawless is hot, is my main point here.Brianehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01616494058636881575noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2495499100279472520.post-14608346789990560272012-10-24T10:33:43.362-06:002012-10-24T10:33:43.362-06:00I wonder what the incidence of this type of behavi...I wonder what the incidence of this type of behavior is in the general population, whether its more common in this country or other cultures.Johanna Garthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15515478890074610814noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2495499100279472520.post-85094315598438759072012-10-24T09:17:12.512-06:002012-10-24T09:17:12.512-06:00Wow ... just wow.
