Not all sexualities are the same. Whether they’re fleeting sources of arousal or full-fledged lifestyles, fetishes occupy an important place in the world of sex. And sexual practices are diverse and varied.
The gang bang
A group sex practice in which one person finds themselves at the centre of the participants’ attention, the gang bang is impressive.
However, it’s not confined to the world of porn, and is the fantasy of many women. That’s why gang bang organisers exist. We interviewed two of them.

Candaulism
Eve de Candaulie is a novelist, blogger, and practitioner of candaulism and male plurality.
In her writing, she shares her practices and offers advice, with spontaneity and warmth, to those who wish to discover candaulism. We interviewed her.

Urophilia
A rather taboo practice, urophilia is nonetheless quite common in BDSM.
This sexual fetish centres primarily on fantasies, atmospheres, and perceptions. And, indeed, not everyone who practises urophilia perceives their experiences in the same way.
Several urophiles agreed to answer our questions.

Foot fetish
Probably one of the most openly embraced fetishes, the foot fetish has many practitioners. Three of them, two men and a woman, agreed to answer our questions.

From the foot fetish to the shoe fetish, it’s just a step away. Pumps, stilettos, boots or ballet flats, shoes are the subject of many fetishistic fantasies.
So much so that sextoy shoes exist.

Burusera
In Japan, the fetish for worn knickers is called burusera. In the West, it has no name, but that doesn’t stop its practitioners from practising it.
We visited Vends ta Culotte, a website for selling your dirty underwear.

Sex shops and video booths
Let’s start with a riddle: what is this infernal machine? If you’re of our generation, you may well never have come across one of these in real life.
Devinette : quelle est cette machine infernale ?
No, it’s not a spaceship from an 80s film, but the inside of one of a sex shop’s video booths.
Why do people frequent sex shop video booths and porn cinemas? Places for meeting up or for voyeurism, these booths are much more than just a place where a butt film is screened.
A few regulars agreed to shed some light on the subject by sharing their point of view and their experiences.

Love dolls
The relationship between love dolls and their owners often goes well beyond the simple sexual act. The emotional aspect is generally present. Sometimes, it even resembles a love story.
