Why a Nylon Stocking Fetish is Such a Turn On

Ever wondered what's behind a nylon stocking fetish? We asked writer, Kayla Lords takes a closer look at why nylon stockings are so sexy for a lot of us.

What's the deal with a nylon stocking fetish?

Everyone’s got a fetish of some sort. That thing when you see it, hear it, or get close to it and sends your mind into a flurry of activity.  When you look at that thing, that kinky fetish of yours, you want to touch - yourself or someone else. You want to be close to it. Fantasies play through your mind about what you’ll do, how you’ll react and feel.
 

Some fetishes are more well known than others. Foot fetish, worn panties, and latex fetish are all good examples. But, let’s explore a nylon stocking fetish by those who love it and describe it as the ultimate in sexy.

From my perspective, I love how nylon stockings feel on my legs. I enjoy the of the garter at the top and the way the belt dangles when they’re pulled off. I prefer not to wear panties with them, but it’s not a fetish of mine, so I asked my kinky friends.

Nylon stocking fetish: It’s all about perspective

My friend @Sum1Sub said it best on his blog, as he waxed eloquently about seeing his partner in nylon stockings:
 

“Visually, they [nylon stocking] are just so pleasing; they give the leg extra definition, contrast and shape.  Accentuating the finer points, and brushing over the blemishes.  Teamed with the garter belt and the whole set up suddenly turns into a work of art. Regardless of what the centrepiece looks like stockings and a garter belt are the sexiest frame you could possibly hope to imagine.  It doesn’t matter if you view from the front or back, the frame of stocking tops, straps and belt just draw the eye to the physical beauty it surrounds.”  - From "Stockings and Mind Games" by subsmissive.

@KaylaLords I'm turned on big time by women wearing those. I think they convey a message of elegance and sluttiness at the same time. — Rod (@rodz_phd) 

So from a visual standpoint, if you like seeing them worn, nylon stockings add a bit of mystery while also bringing certain aspects of her body into focus. What about wearing nylon stockings?

Wearing nylon stockings

Just the act of slipping the nylon over your skin, letting it squeeze your flesh ever so slightly can be enough for some people. Maybe it’s the whisper of nylon against clothing as you go about the day that does it for you. Perhaps the allure is in knowing you’re turning people on when they see your nylon-clad legs, or they get the barest glimpse of the lace top or the garter. It could be all of that at the same time.

What friends said about nylon stockings

My good friend Molly Moore has plenty of kinks and fetishes, things she loves to do and wear. Stockings for her are more than just a thing to feel sexy in, although there is that.
 

“I love the way that stockings look and feel on me, and I also love the way they look on other women. I find stockings by default flattering, no matter your shape, size, or height. Stocking and hold-ups - in my mind - only make everything you have better, and when you are my height, which is no height at all, anything that makes more of your legs is always a good thing.” -From “She’s Got Legs” by Molly Moore

But it’s not just stockings are flattering, which, universally, they are. When you feel desirable and sexy in nylon stockings, for your partner or yourself, every sense is heightened. Cool air kisses on bare skin, flirty looks come easier and you get noticed by others. If any of this turns you on (is it getting hot in here?), that adds to the pleasure of the stockings themselves.
