Wicked Wonderland’s erotic song “Bed,” which explores themes of bondage, kink and power exchange in a strong and highly artistic style, will be available exclusively on Stockroom.com prior to the album’s release.

“My husband Jim Gillette and I have carved out our own path to develop a wonderful and close family life,” said Lita. “Though we’re a long-married couple, we both have very active imaginations, including being kinky with each other, and that’s what this album is about. It’s sort of a sexual autobiography. We’ve partnered up with Stockroom.com because it’s our favorite outfitter for kink products.”

While previewing “Bed,” fans of Lita and Stockroom will also be able to view and order from “Lita’s Collection” (stockroom.com/litaford/) special selection of some of the fetish gear that Lita and Jim have enjoyed, along with her personal choice of Syren Latex fashion styles.

Goodall rose to public attention with his style defining work for The Face magazine in 2000-2003 influencing a generation of illustrators and helping pave the way for illustration’s resurgence and reinvention in recent years. Here Goodall presents for the first time, his first solo show of personal work in a gallery environment.

Entitled ‘Poster Girl’ the images have a strong nod toward fetishism, lots of shiny rubber and gloopy gloss, and a sense of anonymity through the use of masks. Goodall explains “I’m intrigued by the way people perceive the body, the way it looks wrapped in shiny rubber. The way it clings to the human form and makes people look super-real. There are all sorts of connotations and references to the subliminal of shininess and lubrication, and it all comes back to sexuality.”

The show will run from the 6th February till the beginning of March 2009.

American (and English) television from the ’60s and ’70s has an awful lot to answer for in creating a generation of perverts! Many of us can cite early viewings of Batman and The Avengers as major influences in our fetish development, but other popular programs and movies also provided glimpses  into a perverted world of possibilities.

I don’t think I ever saw the first Hawaii Five-O episode, but the sexy total enclosure scene was pivotal to lots of other rubberists. The clip above is surely one of the kinkiest scenes with its heavy rubber suit and awesome headgear! It seems almost inconceivable to me that this was just an innocent plot device, its fetish and BDSM elements are just so pronounced. Awesome!

Reasons for telling
A fetish can be a blessing for one person and a curse for another. When I first noticed my own fetish for latex. I did not know what to make of it. I thought it was very weird and found it strange that a material like latex turned me on. I felt different and very alone. So I kept my desires and feelings to myself and hid it from everybody else. I was not proud of being a slave to my fetish. Every time I gave in and followed my lust, I had to deal with the guilt afterwards. Being what you are is not always easy.

I tried to put my fetish away and forget all about it. I threw all my fetish items out and tried to think about different things, but my fetish kept coming back to haunt my fantasies and dreams.

It took me over fifteen years to realize the obvious; my fetish is a part of who I am and that I was not alone! There is absolutely nothing wrong with having a fetish. Lots of people have them. So why not get the most out of it and share your passion with the person you love?

How to tell
In order to effectively share your passion with a non-fetishist you need to be in a state of mind where you are comfortable with your fetish. If you are not comfortable with your fetish, how can you expect your partner to be? What you need is high fetish self-esteem.

A good place to start is to talk to likeminded people. Look for communities, discussions boards, articles, and chat rooms related to your fetish. See if there are others that have coming out experiences and get some ideas. Talk to some of the regulars. Search for hints and ideas. Soon you will have a much better idea of the origin of your fetish and your self-esteem will grow.

Timing is another key factor. Only tell about your fetish if your relationship is healthy and functioning well. Don’t introduce your fetish if there exist problems in your relationship. Ask yourself this: is this really what I want and to what lengths do I want to go to get it?

Explaining your fetish
Sooner or later you will be ready to come out and share you feelings and desires with your partner. There is so much you can tell about: how did it start, when you first noticed you fetish, how can your partner be involved. But what made all the difference for me was being able to give your partner an idea of where your fetish changes from being an inanimate object to an object of desire. It can be difficult to describe what’s so magical about a fetish you had for so many years, especially to people that don’t have a fetish themselves.

It’s my experience that the goal is to attach some feelings or senses to the object. So if you, like me, had a fetish for latex, explanations like this may work:

Touch: “When you are wearing tight latex over your skin it works like a sensitivity multiplier. Imagine if you are running a finger down a latex covered body part, the touch would be amplified by the elasticity of the latex fabric”.

Smell: “Latex is a natural product, made from the sap of rubber trees. Some types of latex (often the more expensive ones) have a pleasant smell of vanilla”.

Feel: “Latex is like a second layer of skin. It hugs you very tightly and gets the same temperature of your skin. It’s warm to touch and make you very sensitive to temperature changes”.

Sight: “When you polish Latex it becomes very shiny and the color becomes deep and sensual. It almost looks like the body has been painted. The contrast between highlight and shadow is very high and the curves of the body are empathized. So naturally this works as a powerful visual stimulant”.

Take it easy
Go easy on your partner. Listen as much as you would like to be heard. Have respect for whatever he or she says. Don’t be disappointed if he or she doesn’t jump on the “bus” right away. Most people don’t, it’s only human to fear the new and unknown.

If you get rejection or your partner becomes upset, back off and give your partner some room and bring the subject up another time. Just try, try, and try again. The way I see it is very simple. Everybody just wants to be loved for who and what they are! So come out whoever you are!

partner jumps out of the “closet” and tells you about a life long fetish and

wants you to take part in it. The world turns upside down, and all your

partner can talk about is this “weird” thing. You might feel sad, surprised,

shocked or misled. Maybe you don’t know how to go about it, or maybe you even

feel disgusted by the thought. But fear not! If you keep an open mind and try

playing along, you will most likely end up with a very powerful tool that can

send your partner (and yourself!) straight to heaven.

The word Fetish comes from past Shamanistic creeds, where the Shaman believed

some objects, such as rods, rocks, totems or amulets, could wield spiritual

and/or magical powers, those objects being called fetishes. Nowadays, the term

is used as a reference to the sexual power the fetish wields on the fetishist.

Fetishes come in many flavours and sizes. They all share the same mechanism,

the connection between the fetish object/material and pleasure. Such objects

could be long stockings, high heeled shoes, boots, rainwear, baloons or even

diapers. Materials could be silk, demi, leather, velvet or latex. Absolutely

anything can become a fetish.

There is nothing wrong with having a fetish or not. Fetishes are just part of

the person you love, just as loving you is. That’s part of what makes him/her

the person you love, and trying to remove or supress that is supressing a part

of his/her sexual nature, something that could be better used to your and your

partner’s pleasure.

Remember that coming out with a fetish is never easy for your partner. It is

usually something he/she could be very ashamed of, and due to religion or

morals, even consider something sinfull, when it’s just part of his/her sexual

nature and desires. The longer the relationship, the longer the time needed to

talk about it or accept it.
