Decreasingly Unlikely Sexual Fetishes

I remember reading a review of Cronenberg's Crash that noted the movie was based on a sexual fetish that nobody actually has. I also remember a conversation to the effect that no matter how far out, any fetish you could conceive of is already out there. Somebody's got it, somebody's getting off on it. Actually, the term in use might have been "perversion" rather than the decidedly more square and tame "sexual fetish." But perversion has fallen out of fashion lately, somehow. I blame the Puritans.

Anyhow! This was one that I came up with at that time, then promptly or perhaps, gradually forgot all about: Sexual Dysfunction Fetish! I wonder if anyone has caught this one yet?

I don't think I'm going to check. I think that to find the truth, I'd have to venture into danker corners of the internet than I'd really want to sink into.

It would make for a funny sort of porn, though! Certainly not "hardcore."

Ahem.

"DECREASINGLY unlikely"?

Bit of a double-neg, there, jackass! Not precisely a double negative, arguably. Arguably, "unlikely" is a pos-to-neg flip but "decreasingly" is a mere lessening not a negation. But it's close enough to screw up the intended meaning!

I'm very self-critical, but deep down I know I ain't going to change it. It sounds better than "Increasingly Unlikely" or "Decreasingly Likely."
