What Is It?

Because pantyhose are worn almost exclusively by women, experts believe this fetish starts well before puberty, usually while watching mothers or older sisters getting dressed. Men with a pantyhose fetish outnumber women, and the pantyhose fetish often leads to an interest in older women. The intensity of men's pantyhose desires is also greater than women's. The act of wearing pantyhose (on the legs, arms or over the face) is regarded as a subset of the encasement fetish. Men who are sexually aroused by wearing pantyhose are almost exclusively heterosexual.
