Everyone, no matter who they are or where they came from, has a fetish.
I'll give this example: back when I was in the military, I had a roomie that had a secret... he slept in women's lingerie. I'm talking the whole nine-yards; teddies, panties and stockings. I only know this because I caught him by surprise one night, after coming back to the barracks earlier than usual from the NCO club. He wasn't too keen on my knowing about this twist in his knickers (forgive the pun), explaining that he had an ex-girlfriend that started him on wearing such stuff to bed. Me, I just left it to slide and said nothing more on the matter. Although I'm certain he was constantly afraid that I'd tell the other guys in the barracks about his little fetish.
Anyway, as I said, everyone in life has some sort of sexual or semi-sexual fetish. Whether it's something perfectly harmless - like getting touched in a certain spot, say the feet or face - or something wild and outlandish like role-playing as a "father/daughter" couple, or even something edgy like blade-play or power exchanging.
Speaking for myself, I have a fetish about cats. Not having sex with a real cat, mind you, but rather something altogether different.
Got your attention now? Good, because here's my story...
###
As I said, I've always had a thing for things of the feline persuasion. When I was younger, my first pet was a six-month old cream-and-orange kitten. I called her Sasha, and she just about adored me to pieces, literally worshiping the ground I walked on. She was always doing something to get my attention; playing with string, a favorite toy, or just tumbling around on the rug after her tail. Most of the time, she'd just climb into my lap, just begging for attention or a cuddle or petting. It was always a treat to watch her, even when it was just her walking along the floor when I was just lazing around the house. There was just something that got to me, watching her move, jump, pounce and play. Can't really explain it, but there's...something about a cat that can mystify me.
I loved Sasha for all the nine years I kept her as a pet, right until she passed away. That was hard enough to bear with the loss of my beloved pet, but I always cherished the memories of her, even to this day.
One good thing that came out of my love for Sasha was that I started collecting anything and everything associated with cats. Mugs, shirts with graphics of felines, posters, pictures and figurines of all types and sizes...you name it! The shelves of my room and every available horizontal surface were covered with all of the goodies in my cat nick-knack collection.
This hobby didn't end when I left home to strike out on my own. Even when I joined the Navy I managed to bring a part of my collection with me to each of my posting and duty stations. It got to the point that I was so identified with cats that my shipmates began calling me 'Big Cat' as a nickname. I didn't mind though, since nearly everyone aboard a ship or base got some form of notoriety. Mine came from a harmless, though slightly unusual passion. No matter where I went, my bunk space or barracks room had several pictures or pieces from my collection of cats.
Some of my shipmates used my passion against me sometimes. Once, I found a large stuffed tiger in my bunk one day after I turned twenty, with a note wishing me a "warm night alone with my favorite pussy". Other times, my liking of cats worked in my favor, when my current girlfriend at the time would buy me feline-theme gifts.
Eventually, my liking for felines took an interesting twist that became a factor that shaped my future life.
It happened when I was stationed overseas in Japan. I'd been assigned to a Naval detachment there, working in a supply unit attached to the regional Naval hospital. By this time in my life, I was a young man of twenty-two years, young and fit from all of my physical training, and cutting a striking figure for the ladies. My sun-bronze skin, complimented by my crystal-blue eyes and lemon-blonde hair were a fascination with a lot of the women I encountered in the Orient.
One weekend, a couple of friends and I headed into Tokyo for a little R&R. Being young men and in the Navy, we hit a few bars for drinking, a restaurant that served some excellent cuisine and then more bars for even MORE alcohol... In short, we did what most sailors do when out on furlough.
Before too long, our small group ended up in the 'red-light' part of town. Here, we hit many of the 'gentlemen's' clubs - where our youngest was treated to his first lap dance - and even took in some of the more unusual erotic shows that you really have to know where to look for to find them. Eventually, we wanted some real action, not just some 'look-but-no-touchy' stuff. That is where we found a small brothel that my bunk mate Shelby knew of at the time.
It wasn't a major landmark in Tokyo's red-light strip; just a small two-level affair that the owners had modeled after an old geisha house. This place was the kind that offered not only girls for sex, but also had a few that offered entertainment like the traditional geishas of ancient Japan used to provide for samurai and commoner alike.
Even though we were slightly drunk and more than certainly an easy mark for getting our wallets fleeced by some high priced prostitutes, my buddies and I decided to follow Shelby's advice and indulge ourselves for once. It was a decision that we never regretted!
For the rest of the evening we were treated like kings. Beer and sake - warmed rice wine - flowed into our cups, while the ladies plied us with tidbits of food and even more appetizing views of skin. Dorian -a Navy medic who stood six-six, was muscled like DaVinci's David and was black as polished ebony - drew the most attention from the house girls. Between him and me we had at least three girls fawning over our unusual skin color and fit bodies, while whispering promises of what was to come that evening. The rest of our troop wasn't ignored by any means. Each one had at least one girl to attend to, even though it took the likes of Ed's sweet talking (in Japanese) and Mackie's tongue acrobatics to do the trick. You'd be surprised what he could do with a quarter and a rapt audience.
