The shows were silly but you knew how it made you feel!!! I wasn't a fan of the shows! They were poorly written with sfx!! It was just seeing Superheroine that made it something you never missed

Yeah, it is how it fetish works!!! You see something that gets you excited and incorporate it into your life!!!!
I am with you 100 percent Bugsy. When I was a kid and saw Lynda Carter as Wonder Woman in reruns I was mesmerized. Then the reruns stopped running on the channel I was watching, but I never forgot that image of Lynda Carter's Wonder Woman. For you young pups out there back in the eighties there was no Internet to see pics or videos. Then as I got older I started having fantasies of capturing Wonder Woman and having some fun with her. That episode where the corrupt sheriff arrested her stole my heart. There is no question that my superheroine fetish started with Lynda Carter's Wonder Woman, and I do wonder if I would have this superheroine fetish if I had not seen Lynda Carter in my youth. I do wonder about the younger generation that has had access to the Internet and how that has affected how people are introduced to superheroines in regards to their fetish. I imagine that the dynamic must be different for the younger generations that have access to countless numbers of videos and pictures that previous generations did not have access to.

Yes the shows were silly, nevertheless seeing women in leather back then was a turn on.
@ GPC, last time I checked black leather was synonymous with B&D, That is a fetish, at least for me. You asked the question re fetish, there is no wrong answer. Correct me if you want, but it doesn’t change how I developed my fetishes which changed over time.

There is a wrong answer. Simply liking something or even becoming aroused doesn't automatically make it a fetish. I was talking to Dr. D about the topic last night. One example I gave him was I like nice asses. A nice ass is a turn on. However, I do not have an ass fetish. I don't require a lover to have a nice ass. I don't constantly think about nice asses. It's not the first body part from a woman that I look at.

I really do not like feet. Feet are an instant turn off. However, I was actually turned on by how Bunny Colby was sucking Green Lateran's toes. It was the expectation to my feelings about feet. Bunny just made it hot in that moment. Typically I don't like foot fetish and heroines without footwear. I would not say I have a foot fetish.

Roses are red
Violets are blue
If you like hot babes
Superheroines are for you

You don't need to be labelled
Don't need to be defined
To wanna see Supergirl
Treated very unkind

Stripped of her dignity
Tied and Abused
Punished for the thrill
If that's what you're into

Be a fan of her destruction
Rejoice to see her lose
Who care's if it's a fetish
That you covet heroine boobs

Is it any wonder
Why any of us are here
We don't worship at their feet
But we sure do like to leer

There's something so doomed about any endeavor to clearly, objectively define traits or ideas that are, by their essential nature, subjective. The point at which something deserves to be called a 'fetish', and what exactly that actually entails is... eh - it's something you can waste a lot of time needlessly trying to pin down just in your own mind, let alone try and get everyone else to conform to.

Meanwhile it's pointless to look at the content itself when all you are really interested in is the response it elicits, right? You can't tell someone they don't have a fetish, or that they do, frankly, based off of what they want in the content they consume, and you can't tell them what it is they are getting out of it. I will at least say it would be a mistake to think it's only a superheroine fetish if it involves sex - because that misses so much of the nuance about what is triggering people when Wonder Woman is getting chloroformed or mind controlled or beaten up - or whatever. There's another thread going on about what turns people on about 'forced orgasms' and a lot of what people are talking about there is the power dynamic going on such a scene - so it shouldn't be hard to understand people getting triggered by other things that express a similar power dynamic/shift/exchange without being overtly sexual. It's also worth reiterating that this community seems to turn more around 'SHiP' than 'SH', and trying to leave the 'iP' entirely out of the discussion about what people like might be at the root of some of the confusion here. People seem to like watching the heroine getting into trouble, and there are more kinds of trouble than just sexual peril.

Personally, I'd dodge the label of fetish altogether and just say I'm a fan of heroines, super or otherwise, and I'm a fan of watching them get into trouble. I'm also a fan of sex, just in general, and themes centering around dramatic shifts in power or expressions of power, or themes of general seduction/temptation/perversion (the concept of good sex being sexy irrespective of context is a fun one). I'm also a fan of action sequences and good story and interesting characters and visually stunning scenes. Whenever you bring together all these individual things I'm a fan of then, well, I'm going to be a big fan of that, too.

@Void, Impressive post. It is the best and most relevant post of the thread, so far.

This is a semantical argument. What difference does it make whether someone has a fetish or a mere interest in SHP? What is the point exactly? The important thing, the only relevant thing is that everyone on this forum has an interest in seeing superheroines in peril. There is no test or threshold that one has to pass in order to belong to the club, we are all members. I think that any attempt to classify someone's interest in SHP can be divisive and unproductive. Can't we all just enjoy SHP without overanalyzing one's fetish or interest and insulting or offending them in the process? What is to be gained by this foolish exercise in classifying one's fetish or interest. I think that it is fair to question the definition of fetish versus interest or excitement in general, but as to how it relates to individual members of this forum, I think that it comes off as unnecessarily combative and judgmental. Labels are good on cans of soup, not so nice on actual people.

I have pretty wide-ranging tastes when it comes to super heroines, but a more limited subset of content I'm willing to pay for.

I'm a fan of mainstream Marvel movies, I love seeing women in super heroine outfits, I love seeing damsels in distress (particularly heroic types), and I love sexual SHIP content. The latter, however, is the only one that will get me to shell out $35 for a 20 minute video. The rest are fun, but if the price point is essentially the same across the genre, then I'm going for the heavy stuff.

In terms of the particulars, I'm not that picky either. Fully stripped, costume on, boots or no, mask or no, hardcore, softcore, male dom, female dom, I'm open to all that. It's more based on how well it's shot and performed and how good the peril scenes are.

EDIT: I do think you're right though. When I read the comments on heroinemovies.com or wherever I see a lot of "He took off her boots before her mask. Sorry, can't buy this." It does seem like this community can get overly persnickety at times. But there's no arguing with taste.

For me is the damsel in distress part that I love. Could be a PG or Xtreme one. :)

Superhero comics have pretty strong BD&SM energy, beautiful people running around in tight outfits, fighting for dominance winding up in bondage, using power words and having special weaknesses I think it turns into a fetish very easily. I can enjoy Superhero related content that isn't explicitly sexual in a sexual way or a non-sexual way. I would say I'm a fan first and a fetishist second, but when I come to forums like this I'm generally looking for fetish content.

Superheroine fetish for movies and TV shows. I have never been interested in comics at all.

I'm fundamentally a damsel-in-distress fetishist, but having the woman be some kind of heroine adds a lot. I like that they're tough, and that they put themselves in the danger, and I of course love spandex. In addition to heroines, I also love spy girls in catsuits or little black dresses.

Sexual peril is the main thing for me. I like it outside of the whole heroine/spy genre, but mixing the two is my favorite thing.

I think I may have offered my two cents here already before but I guess as its been repopularized I'll bite once more! I take mild umbridge with the idea that one must have sex in the thing that sexually arouses them for it to be a fetish.

Getting aroused by superhero capes, and capes alone, by that matter becomes a superhero CAPE fetish surely right? Because as there's no sex involved with the object if that merely makes them a fan of superheroes... how are you lumped into the same general category if you've got no interest in capes at all, but just want to see superheroines tied up?

If getting sexually aroused by just superheroine peril in general with zero sex makes it not a fetish and just a 'superhero fan'.... then how does one delineate between the people who love superhero content... but AREN'T sexually aroused by it, or else aren't sexually aroused by the SHiP aspect in general? The fetish is 'SHiP' Superheroines in Peril. It isn't 'SHISS' Superheroines in Sexual Situations or 'SHR' Superheroines Raped or ANY of those other things. It very wisely rises above a single possible conclusion of peril (I.E. Sexual intercourse) and acknowledges a much wider ranging subject matter that more or less run parallel with one another.

I think there is a genuine discussion to have here... I just don't think that it's THIS one. MOST fetishes don't involve the actual element of sex in their material... all that is required of a thing to be a sexual fetish is for it to sexually arouse you... HOW or WHY it does that isn't guaranteed to be a factor (It CAN be if the delivery is part of the fetish... but in the case of SHiP I don't think that it is)

Mild Edit: I don't mean to indicate that I think the discussion has moved on poorly. I believe the majority of recent responses especially are talking about this in a more 'why I love the fetish' than what I'm talking about above. so in my previous paragraph where I say ' just don't think that it's THIS discussion' I'm speaking about the questions asked in the topics authorial post.

I'm both in my case. One half, I'm a lifelong fan of superheroes & only collect TPB of my favorite runs. I currently only reading X-Men books, Venom, & Superman. On other hand, I developed superheroine fetish at the same time as my spandex fetish later on. My superheroine & spandex fetishism cause me to be weirdly interested in spandex costume design & have a thread that dedicated to it.
Just a man who loves powerful ladies in skintight spandex. Tight is right.
