Object relations theory
- "Object relations theory in psychoanalytic psychology is the process of developing a psyche in relation to others in the environment during childhood. Based on psychodynamic theory, the object relations theory suggests that the way people relate to others and situations in their adult lives is shaped by family experiences during infancy. For example, an adult who experienced neglect or abuse in infancy would expect similar behavior from others who remind them of the neglectful or abusive person from their past. These images of people and events turn into objects in the unconscious that the person carries into adulthood, and they are used by the unconscious to predict people's behavior in their social relationships and interactions." - Wikipedia

Pavlovian
- Fetish @ Submissive Guide - "Behaviorism traced fetishism back to classical conditioning and came up with numerous specialized theories. The common theme running through all of them is that sexual stimulus and the fetish object are presented simultaneously causing them to be connected in the learning process. This is similar to Binet's early theory, though it differs in that it specifies association to classical conditioning and leaves out any judgment about pathogeneity. The superstimulus theory stressed that fetishes could be the result of generalization. For example, it may only be shiny skin that arouses a person at first, but in time more common stimuli, such as shiny latex, may have the same affect. The problem with such a theory was that classical conditioning normally needs many repetitions, but this form would require only one. To account for this the preparedness theory was put forward; it stated that reacting to an object with sexual arousal could be the result of an evolutionary process, because such a reaction could prove to be useful for survival. In pointing to how conditioned sexual behavior can persist over time, one may cite how, in 2004, when quails were trained to copulate with a piece of terry cloth, their conditioning was sustained through ongoing repetition.Because classical conditioning seemed to be unable to explain how the conditioned behavior is kept alive over many years, without any repetition, some behaviorists came up with the theory that fetishism was the result of a special form of conditioning, called imprinting."

Taking control of past bad experiences
- "...With time, Joe was able to understand how his desire for humiliation, was a desire to feel connection in a way that he remembered from childhood. We all seek connectedness in a way that feels familiar to us. As children we all have some aspects of connection that came in the context of power, humiliation and anger. Understanding how we our experience of childhood emotional intimacy, shapes our adult sexuality can help unlock a new richness and life in our close relationships." - The Psychological Roots of Kinky Sex - Mark Pines (949) 288-3123

Keeps us away from STIs/STDS
"Researchers collected history's records of foot-lust and compared it with the greatest STD outbreaks of the last thousand years: gonorrhea (the 13th century), syphilis (the 16th century, with an encore in the 19th century) and AIDS (the break-dancing years up to now). Scientists learned two things. The first was a greater appreciation for antibiotics, and the second was that foot fetishes are most prevalent in times of disease." - 5 Scientific Explanations for Your Sexual Perversions | Cracked.com
