Summary
The August 1961 issue of Fuzoku Kitan is a large and unusually varied issue combining extensive bondage photography, punishment imagery, fetish-oriented essays, autobiographical testimony, homosexuality and cross-dressing columns, sensational historical material, serialized fiction, and reader correspondence. Its central editorial feature, Fetishists, examines people whose erotic interests are organized around clothing, underwear, buttocks, fundoshi, leather, neckties, and other objects or bodily fixations. The issue treats fetishism alternately as personal confession, sexual psychology, eccentric collecting, subcultural identity, and a potential source of socially disruptive behavior.
