Kinks and fetishes are common nowadays and are used interchangeably by quite a lot of people. But there is a subtle difference between the two of them. A kink is simply an activity that is non-traditional or non-sexual that might be sexually arousing for you. At the same time, a fetish is when the whole sexual activity revolves around that non-sexual activity or object. These are ways to fulfil your sexual fantasies. For example, a kink maybe just spanking some body part, but BDSM is a fetish
Although kinks are becoming common with various movies and shows being based on them, it is still a taboo for many people or rather many countries. In this article, we will count down some of the most popular and common kinks in the world.

Different Types of Kinks
If you love a few kinks while having sex, these definitions will help you understand and distinguish between the terms. If you are new to fetishes or your partner is kinky, and you have no idea about that, this article about common fetishes will help you clear out your doubts.
- Definition of fetish: fetish is described as sexual satisfaction from a non-sexual object or body part. Such gratification is linked only to that object and nothing else. The person needs to have that object in the sexual arousal. For example, a person with fetish to heels requires the heels to be on the person throughout the intercourse.
- Definition of kink: On the other hand, a kink is just a sexual preference like a piece of clothing or body part that doesn’t fit into the norm of sexual activities. More than half of the men are kinky. The person is extra aroused with that kink but can still have satisfactory sex without that kink.
Now since the difference is clear, let us talk about some of the most common kinks in the world. The following list of kinks common among people will blow your mind:
1. Role play
It is one of the most common kinks and has become mainstream. Whether it is still considered a social stigma or not, it is fun to change your sex daily routine. Roleplay can be of different types like a police-criminal, realtor-client, doctor-patient, daddy-step daughter, and many others. Age play is also another example of role play where the guy can be the dominant daddy, and the girl can be the baby girl. Play with your imagination in the bed.
2. BDSM
With books and movies like 50 Shades of Grey, BDSM (Bondage and Discipline, Dominance and Submission, Sadism and Masochism) has gained a lot of popularity. It is safe when you use the right stuff.
Many people are trying it out, and those aroused by bondage kinks are now opening up. In BDSM, there is a dominant one and the submissive one. The dominant one receives pleasure by giving pain. Also, he/she might want to hear the partner pleading for mercy. The submissive one receives the pain and creates sexual arousal.
3. Voyeurism and Exhibitionism
Voyeurism is sexual gratification by watching others in sexual activity. And exhibitionism is enjoying sex while exhibiting it to other people. Of course, both kinks require proper consent. You can join people in sex parties and kink specials to have a spectacular show.
4. Golden showers
Urophilia is the medical Latin term for golden showers. This fetish is for people who like peeing during sex. They find this act as pleasure and might be awesome at the height of climax for people who like golden showers. Some people like giving the shower while others like receiving. It is one of the most common kinks for females.
5. Humiliation
Even humiliation is a form of pleasure for some people during sex. Words like slut, whore, and bitch are forms of verbal abuse that kinky women with humiliation kinks might enjoy. You must talk to your partner before using them and respect any boundaries. Foot fetish and cuckolding are some other forms of humiliation kinks that can be used.
