hello internet denisons today we are
diving into the weird and wonderful
freaky Fantastical world of online
fetishes now we all know that there's
like really weird stuff on the internet
that's not like a huge giant
archaeological Discovery or anything but
when people use the internet we
typically use it for relatively normal
things of course we use it for social
media drama memes fandoms Etc but we
also use it to be extremely helpful
things like finding recipes tutorials
life hacks how to craft things what if I
told you that lurking beneath this
surface of seemingly mundane craft
videos was a freaky fetish
underworld check for example these very
innocent looking tutorials on Facebook
all right okay I mean they're everywhere
we get on reels nobody uses reels but
somehow we all end up on reals they
promise to teach you how to effectively
knit a sweater or bake a cake or
something stupid like that seems
harmless enough right wrong hiding
beneath these disgusting layers of
crochet patterns and casserole recipes
is a freaky underworld of fetish content
because who doesn't love a good potato
casserole recipe with the side of
porn is going to be a big meal it's
going to feed a lot of people and we're
just gently working this meat now I know
what you're probably wondering how is
this X-rated materal material what is
going on here Facebook is full of crazy
strange crafting tutorial videos from 5
minute crafts to more in-depth videos
just like this one my God bro oh hell no
man what oh come on what is
this this is our plaster that we're
going to pour
in this is looking really good he's
going to love this yeah this is this is
how I normally do things yeah all right
here we go I think we should just show
him right that's for my boyfriend and I
think that he's going to love it is that
your feet it's my feet and look see that
there's a hole Yeah you know what so put
it in bro and then they play it off like
it wasn't por you needed a place to hold
the remote I that great oh my God it's a
remote
holder honestly this feels absolutely
illegal I can't believe I'm showing this
on my channel the only thing weirder
than people getting off to this is that
the fact I'm showing it on my Channel
right now um but you know what they say
Different Strokes these kinds of videos
play social media
like the plague even advertisements for
mobile games have gotten increasingly
more sus within the last year and I
cannot be the only one who notices this
stuff like
huh wow
[Music]
are you guys kidding this but what I
find most intriguing about this type of
content is that the people who are
commenting on the videos um don't seem
to notice that this kind of stuff is of
a more intimate nature they're mostly
complaining about the quality of the
craft or or why it's taking so long or
what's what's going on this is this is
stupid that looks ugly do you not
understand that that is not the point of
the video is this how you get your sick
kicks what did just an ordinary crabby
oh my goodness now while I claim to know
that some of these are fetish videos um
there are some that are just simply rage
bait or anger
bait yes
my okay this is gous where they make a
really shitty craft or it takes really
really long for this recipe only for it
to turn out looking disgusting where
it's not really fetish content but the
lme are extremely blurred because you
have this genre of videos where these
people are like oh my god wow oh that's
amazing and they're like moaning and I'm
not going to get too into it because
that's I'm I'm not here to provide that
kind of content for you unless you want
to subscribe to my I'm just kidding I
don't have one of those either even when
I can recognize its fetish content
sometimes I don't even know
how foot fetish got it easy next
[Music]
okay we all know what that's supposed to
be what press my belly button now wow
okay what is this I hate these videos
they absolutely anger me to my core the
the people who are doing the craft or
the the game or the whatever it is are
really really annoying and they
just the whole video and they don't even
get to the point like just show me the
shitty thing you did and then you got
everybody over the age of 50 in the
comment sections that are like I don't
get it that looks horrible that looks
disgusting that looks stupid it's not
supposed to look good guys how many of
these do you need to watch to understand
that it's not supposed to look good the
real thing that inspired me to make this
video today is one of the most devious
practices on the internet and that my
friends is called fetish farming and no
it's not what it sounds like what does
that sound like
fetish farming um is the act of tricking
creators artists and Etc into creating
content that actually feeds into
someone's sexual fantasy even though
that content may not be inherently
sexual the perpetrator asks a victim to
make art or make a video or post about a
subject that's extremely specific oddly
oddly specific um and and just overall
very strange but sometimes because this
request seems innocent enough and and
it's so weirdly specific people will
just go ahead and do it anyway and
they're like sure okay it doesn't affect
me any and then uh the The Fetish farmer
has won by tricking someone into giving
into their freaky little headspace
fantasy and because it's not inherently
sexual a lot of people just go ahead and
do it they're like all right do it for
do it for the bag do it for the likes
hey um can you please make a video of
you standing in your closet with an
umbrella over your head flapping it up
and down making horse sounds please
please could you do that it'd be so
funny it'd be great it'd be awesome yeah
okay no no reason no reason just it
would be so cool you should totally do
it okay one of the most recognizable
cases of fetish farming comes from the
infamous case of the Wonderbread guy uh
if you don't know what that is
Wonderbread guy was a person who was
Anonymous on Deviant Art and Tumblr and
websites like that back in the 2010s
showing my age there I am becoming a
Relic and he had this knack for
commissioning artists to create these
digital art pieces of white women buying
cartfuls of Wonderbread you heard that
right someone out there gets their rocks
off by the idea of white usually blond
rich women buying cartfuls of
Wonderbread priced at ludicrous prices
and usually sometimes talking on the
phone about deforestation
or chemical runoff lots of other social
and and geological issues caused by the
extremely wealthy capitalist people in
America but yeah he was super into that
I'm assuming it's a he sorry to assume
that seems like a man thing maybe that's
sexist but I I'm just going to I'm I'm
going to throw it out there someone got
off to the idea of rich white women
buying carts full of Wonderbread usually
priced around $500 a
loaf throughout the 2010s and even late
2000s this user Comm IED dozens of
digital art pieces and is rumored to pay
extremely well like I'm talking hundreds
and even thousands of dollars for this
art and it had to be of white women
sometimes from like franchises like like
cartoons popular books popular movies
Etc sometimes it was a character from
one of those buying Wonderbread and it
had to be Wonderbread okay Sunbeam isn't
going to work look at her little [ __ ]
eating grin of course he didn't want
Sunbeam while this is one of the more
popular cases of fetish farming
wonderbrad guy was reported to be by the
artist that he bought work from um a
pretty chill guy and he always paid
extremely extremely well so they aren't
always that chill it seems like this
fetish farmer was extremely fruitful
with his Harvest but sadly that's not
always the case ah Tick Tock the land of
silly little dances political discourse
and fetish farming meet Clara Summers 14
also known as Clara Summers 26 uh Clara
Summers is an anonymous user on Tik Tok
who is responsible for the latest fetish
farming craze which is known as dress
poofing what started innocently enough
as some random requests for lots of
cosplayers usually Princess Peach
cosplayers to sit down and poof out
their ball gowns um has become the
latest fetish farming frenzy if you know
what I'm saying whoever this Anonymous
user is CLA Summers 14 clar Summers 26
whatever they have been bombarding
cosplayers people with ball gowns it's
it's crazy they've been bombarding the
com M sections asking for video after
video after video after video of these
people to please sit down please poof
out your dress please sit down like a
dress make it poof like a cupcake quy
and weird anyway because fetish farming
has been such an issue especially in
communities like the cosplay Community
the fandom communities stuff like that
people caught on pretty quickly which is
why Clara Summers has probably changed
their username multiple times on Tik Tok
if I had to get pretty soon cosplayers
caught wind that Clara summer 14 was
just a fetish farmer who was being
extremely weird about large poy ball
gowns and they started to warn other
cosplayers about the situation people
took their videos down Clara Summers was
blocked by multiple people Clara was
forced to get their poofing fix
elsewhere so they turned to the formal
wear and Bridal Shop Community online
that's right when that sweet sweet drip
feed of cosplayers poofing their dresses
dried up CLA as Summers went elsewhere
do a more clueless and dare I say a
normal Community suddenly bridal shops
Kena shops prom shops General Formal
Wear boutiques in general were being
asked by this user to poof out their
dresses and sit down and let me see it
poof when you sit and it actually became
a trend known as the poof test um among
these stores because the girls running
these shops just didn't they weren't in
the internet as deeply as some of us
were okay some of us grew up chronically
online on Pinterest Tumblr Deviant Art
digging into the crevices of the most
disgusting parts of the internet and not
everyone did that okay most people who
aren't extremely nerdy didn't because of
this ignorance and innocence people have
just started catering to the poof test
so much so that it has almost became a
trend from what I can tell you'll notice
that a lot of these videos I did blur
the Creator's faces that is because some
of these videos have been taken down
when they realized that it was catering
to fetish content and also I just do not
feel comfortable re-sharing videos of
people who are probably unaware that
they are being used for someone's sick
fantasy um even if that fantasy doesn't
seem sexual at all they still did not
consent in a normal person's mind hone
in with me here in a normal person's
mind this is totally fine like I have I
was in dance class when I was like five
we had these like Big Tool skirts for
ballet and I would sit sit down and poof
them out and I would feel like a
princess and it was great it was
wonderful none of you better ask for
that honestly I I I understand yeah that
does look cool and so why wouldn't you
make a video about that I get it but if
you don't know what to look for anybody
can be a victim of fetish farming and
it's just not cool because it's just not
cool okay while it may seem like it's
not hurting anybody the ickiest part
about fetish farming is that it's not
consider ual on the other person's side
asking someone to participate in your
sexual fetish is just really weird and
gross if they don't know that they are
an active participant in that it's just
guys need to stop it you're making the
rest of the nerds look bad the worst
part is that you can be participating in
a fetish type video and not even know it
because there's literally millions and
millions and millions of fetishes um
there was actually a trend on Tik Tok
that I participated in on my personal
page um it was that System of a Down I'm
sure they can't let me play the real
music on here or I'll get this video
demonetized but it was that System of a
Down song that's like and if you go I
want to go with you and if you die I
want to die with you you know what I'm
talking about um I there was a trend
where you would like roll your eyes back
in your head and it was spooky it was
right around Halloween it was a very
spooky time of year and the idea is like
I want to die with you and you're like
demon vampire zombie whatever I don't
know but I participated in that because
I love alternative music and I love
spooky stuff and I thought ooh Spooky
Little Trend and also it showed off I
just got some new piercings at the time
and I was like uh yeah this is
definitely going to show off some of my
new piercings I definitely participating
in this until I got around 171
likes give or take and I noticed that
someone added my video to a public
folder on Tik Tok t it pretty girls
doing the eye
thing I like went through this folder
because it was public and it's just
hundreds and hundreds and hundreds and
hundreds of videos of girls like doing
like spooky stuff like oh my eyes are um
or you know the system of a downtrend or
just showing off the fact that they can
like roll their eyes to the side and
make their eyes completely white which
is an interesting talent because I get
an intense migraine and I try but I
won't be trying for you guys you guys
blew that yes anybody can be a victim of
fetish farming and they they may not
even know you you may not know I didn't
know I didn't
know I was being fetish farmed that's
the scary part about it for all of you
content creators and some of you content
consumers out there here are a couple
signs to make sure you're not being
fetish farmed okay you may get requests
for certain videos and that's fabulous
that's great but uh yeah if it's highly
specific and weird and they keep asking
over and over and over and over again
and are super consistent red flag if you
can look up their username and related
comments and you see that they're asking
people for similar videos red flag if
you try to make a video that's like oh
well I'll do something similar and
they're like yeah but you should really
do this oddly oddly specific thing
instead red flag and then also they'll
try to play it off super casually like
you're the crazy one um if you question
it um you should definitely draw my
favorite My Little Pony OC in a giant
pool stuck inside encapsulated in red
Jell-O I mean I don't really want to do
that
no please do it they're going to be
very adamant about this okay it's it's
going to be weird and then the last red
flag is that they're usually using some
kind of burner or faceless account so
you can't trace them back it'll be a
very generic name or a a blank profile
picture they're not going to have their
actual stuff out on the internet a lot
of the time don't fall into these traps
watching out for
you yeah lastly this part is a little
bit sad but I did want to put it out
there because I find it to be useful
information if you are a content creator
please be careful and be mindful of what
you post because every video is
someone's fetish video and I just know
that there's some nerd out there who
gets their rocks off to blondes with
dumbass opinions let me tell you they've
they've hit they've hit the gold mine
they are in the Texas te striking gold
here on my channel I mean unless you're
like a faceless Channel if you're going
to show your face on the internet there
are going to be weirdos out there so
stay safe be careful if anyone requests
you to do something weird like plug your
nose and gargle water while singing the
alphabet just don't do it because they
don't need that they need help in the
meantime you've been watching Melody
