Autoplushophilia

From WikiMD's Wellness Encyclopedia

Autoplushophilia is a type of paraphilia where an individual experiences sexual arousal from the thought of being transformed into or dressed as a plush toy. This condition is considered a subset of furry fandom and is closely related to other paraphilias involving anthropomorphism and role-playing.

Characteristics[edit | edit source]

Individuals with autoplushophilia often fantasize about becoming a plush toy, which can involve wearing plush costumes or imagining themselves as a plush character. This paraphilia can be associated with the broader furry fandom, where participants often engage in role-playing as anthropomorphic animal characters.

Relation to Other Paraphilias[edit | edit source]

Autoplushophilia is related to other paraphilias such as furry fandom, where individuals are sexually attracted to anthropomorphic animal characters, and transformation fetish, where individuals are aroused by the idea of transforming into another being or object. It is also connected to plushophilia, which involves sexual attraction to plush toys themselves.

Psychological Aspects[edit | edit source]

The psychological aspects of autoplushophilia can vary widely among individuals. For some, it may be a harmless fantasy that they indulge in privately, while for others, it may be a significant part of their sexual identity. Like other paraphilias, it is important for individuals to understand and manage their desires in a way that is healthy and consensual.

Community and Culture[edit | edit source]

The autoplushophilia community is often intertwined with the furry fandom community. Many individuals who identify with this paraphilia participate in furry conventions and online forums where they can share their interests and connect with like-minded individuals. The community provides a space for individuals to express their fantasies and find acceptance.
