The country of high tea, stiff upper lip, and more also has some wild stuff going on beyond closed doors
Oh, hey there, Britain! We see you and your sexual fetishes. BDSM, spanking and foot worship is all stuff you’re into, according to a new survey.
A sex shop called Lovehoney carried out a study in which they asked people what their favorite sexual fetish was. And beating out everythign else on the list was making sex videos…using an iPhone.

The rise in sex videos can be directly linked to our smartphone addiction. Not only are more people video taping themselves having sex, they’re sharing those videos with other couples. This gives new meaning to “sliding into your DM.”
Rounding out the top 10 list, in order of kink preference:
BDSM
Also known as bondage and discipline, domination and submission, sadism and masochism, this fun fetish rose in popularity around the same time as “Fifty Shades of Grey” five years ago, and according to The Sun, “is set for another boom with latest movie being released around Valentine’s next year.”
Sexual Role Play
This one will likely never go out of style, because pretending to be someone else in the bedroom is the only way some people can open themselves up to new experiences.
Rubber, Latex and Leather
There’s a term for people who get turned on by the smell, look and/or smell of these types of materials: rubberists.

Spanking
Did you know the area where the glutes meet the thigh is an erogenous zone for many? It’s not about the pain, which you thought it was, didn’t you?
Feet
Having a foot fetish is a legit fetish. In fact, it’s the most common non-genital sexual fetish. And according to Live Science, “Nearly half of all such fetishes focus on feet, and almost two-thirds of fetishes for objects associated with the body are for shoes and socks.”

It just so happens, as Live Science points out, “the brain areas associated with genitalia and feet are adjacent to each other in the brain’s body image map” and that foot fetishes could possibly result from cross-wiring in the brain between the foot and the genital parts.
