Rubber Room
Rubber is a smooth, waterproof,
elastic material, made by
chemically treating the sap of the rubber tree.
Many rubber fans like to
be tightly encased in their fetish material, from head to toe. Indeed,
with rubber, as with corsets, we might in many cases speak of a
constriction fetish. Rubber, however, like all the fetishes, has multiple
sources of appeal. It feels nice, which is important to people living in
an insecure world. Rubber garments are kind to you, carressing your skin,
comforting and soothing.
But
worn next to the skin, rubber is also
pleasantly stimulating. Rubber is, of course a slang word for condom, and
it has been suggested that the rubber suits [fetishists]
wear represent a
condom. When they put them on, they feel like giant, animated penises.
Although rubber fetishists carry body enclosure to extremes, the skin
tight silhouette has proved attractive to a wide audience, especially as
mainstream fashion has become increasingly body conscious. Latex clothing
has blurred the line between fetish and fashion, it turns your whole body
into a lubricating erogenous surface.
People with a primary rubber fetish
are attracted to this physical side: It is very confining and unbelievably
hot. I think latex fetishism is very much about constriction and
containment. Tight-fitting leather is pretty defining. But tight-fitting
latex is like being sprayed with paint.
