Car Fetishes and Kinks: Mechanophilia and More

The automobile is a machine of beauty, a symbol of freedom, an emblem of status, a road to independence. Many men have loved cars passionately, taking pride in tinkering with their engines and polishing their exteriors. There are festivals where you can admire classic cars and events with the latest and rarest super models that make our mouths water.

Women are sometimes drawn to men with cars, so perhaps it’s not surprising that this kind of car love sometimes tips over into love of another kind.

Cars and kink often go hand in hand, and there are multiple fetishes involving cars.

Mechanophilia

This fetish refers to a sexual attraction to planes, trains, and automobiles. Guys who dig their cars THIS much usually prefer the car itself to women. It’s not a prop or an accompaniment to pussy, but the thing itself.

Edward Smith told his story in The Telegraph over ten years ago, shocking the world by proclaiming his promiscuity: he admitted to sex with over 1000 cars. He felt attracted to them for as long as he could recall, had sex with a car the first time at age fifteen, and didn’t feel sexual attraction at all to women or to men.

Men who love cars the way Ed loves cars have relationships with them as well as flings, and feel specific attractions to certain cars—the cars are not interchangeable. It’s mostly guys who report this strange kind of love, but a similar attractions to bridges, walls, and towers is often reported by women.

Car Crash Fetish

There’s some debate over whether the I973 book Crash by J.G. Ballard invented the idea of the fetish for car crashes, or brought them to light. The book itself declared the kink “a new sexuality, born from a perverse technology.” But symphorophilia—arousal at accidents or tragic emergencies—has been around a lot longer. The combination of life and death edging, and the smells of gasoline and automobile upholstery proved a potent combination for some.

Speed Demon

The car fetish is sometimes connected to speed. That symbolism of freedom and independence is there too, with the added kick of adrenaline. Not everyone would risk everything—including their lives, to race cars—and not all race car drivers are in it for the sex. But sometimes those things all meld together.

Car Kink Lite

The car as part of a general sexiness is extremely common. Men’s magazines have long featured busty babes draped over shiny Corvettes. Women often find the same guy more attractive when he’s by his car. This is all tied up in the fact that guys love to tinker with mechanics, and in those cultural symbols of freedom and status as well as in the simple aesthetics—some cars are beautiful, and they complement beautiful men and women.

Most who find cars sexy in this way wouldn’t call it a fetish, but they make good use of the car for kinky fun even so.

The car is an amazing venue for making out, after all, whether inside or on the hood. Use it for role playing a hooker and john or a horny hitchhiker with a furtive roadside blowjob. Wear it as an accessory in an elaborate dress-up game. Use it as a prop for dangerous kinks, like being kidnapped and subjected to your dom captor’s demented erotic imagination. The possibilities are endless.
