This Video Is a Veritable Encyclopedia of Outlandish Fetishes, and These 10 Are Our Favorites (NSFW)
If you’ve never heard of Phile magazine, here’s what you need to know: The biannual glossy publication is dedicated to investigating sexual trends and subcultures, “to gain insight into human desire” (in the magazine’s own words). The mag’s second issue — Winter 2018 — is available for purchase now, and along with the new issue’s release, Phile has posted a fetish encyclopedia video that has us gagging at how well-done it is.
(Before watching the fetish encyclopedia video at the bottom of this article, note that it does contain some male full-frontal nudity.)
Phile magazine’s second issue features all sorts of articles, photo essays and interviews, including one with Austin, Texas-based drag terrorist CHRISTEENE. Topics covered inside include sex in prison, BDSM, female masking, sexual cannibalism, gearheads and queer porn, among others. Phile is currently stocked in bookstores across the world.
