What Is a Transformation Fetish?

The transformation fetish is defined as sexual excitement and sexual pleasure from the idea of transformation, usually very specific transformations for different fetishists.

Sometimes called TF for short, there is also a community for “transformation fiction” which is arguably almost the same thing—an intense interest in and enjoyment of transformation stories.

In the transformation fetish, of course, the interest is sexual. Both however enjoy the depiction, description, idea of, or enactment of transformations of humans into animals, humans into otherworldly creatures, humans into another kind of human, or body transformations.

While some transformation fetishes are possible in real life, such as feederism transforming a body into a very large body, most are fictional and roleplay only.
