Question
What is navel fetish and how do you do it. Please give detailed examples if possible.
Hello Vanessa,
Umbiliphilia, or navel fetishism, is the attraction to and arousal of navels. Whether through direct or indirect interaction, the fetishist may enjoy the smell and taste of a navel. They may even be fascinated by their own.
Some fetishists enjoy worshipping and admiring the navels. Others would love nothing more than to perform navel torture, a series of pain-inflicting acts such as piercing and stabbing the navel.
