This week’s fetish is the balloon. I remember being a kid, and there was this ‘other kid’ who simply loved being the one to get to all the parties early to help the birthday boy hang up the balloons. This kid would pull and stretch the balloon, slowly blow it up while taking deep long breaths in order to have enough for the next one, tie the knot with his fingers, rub the balloons through his hair, feeling the static build and lift his hair away from his scalp, and…

So, ya, this week’s fetish is the balloon. Balloon fetishism is when a person has a sexual fascination with balloons. Often referring to themselves as looners, balloon fetishists are diverse in their fascination with the balloon. Looners are gay, straight, or bi.

There are four phases of the balloon that might sexually arouse the looner: inflation (blowing it up by some means), admiration (looking at it), interaction (touching, moving, watching, smelling), and destruction (deflation, popping, releasing). 

The practices of the fetishist fall into two distinct categories, poppers and non-poppers. The popper is primarily aroused by the balloon bursting, either through the sexual tension involved in anticipating it pop, and/or in the sensory experience of it. Some looners like blowing the balloon until it pops, often enjoyed when one’s partner does it. Some looners enjoy various forms of erotic popping with objects, by either pins, knives, and the like. And some enjoy watching others sexually stimulate the balloon until popping, with such methods as sitting, hugging, squeezing, stomping, and pinching. In all these cases the popper’s primary interest is in building anticipation and the sexual tension of bursting at any time.

The non-popper, actually abhors destroying the balloon, and is much more sexually aroused by admiring and interacting with it. Interacting with the balloon can range from blowing it up and holding it, to watching others interact with balloons, to placing the balloon underneath the genitals and bouncing on it.
