Am I weird because I am not attracted anyone sexualy and only romantically? This means that I am attracted to things like looks and personality, but not things like sex and nudity. However, I have a fetish that appeals to me sexualy, even though I am not attracted to anything like nudity or sex in that fetish. This fetish is macrophillia.

nah, having a fetish ain't very weird cuz darn near everyone has one

What about the other things I listed? Like being asexual, not aromantic and having a fetish that has nothing to do with nudity or sex.

Fetish is a sexual attraction to something that is not inherently sexual by nature.

For example, Inflation is a fetish because being inflated is not a sexual act. Just like Macro-characters is not sexual. Could be any number of things that created the feeling.

Maybe you just have a low sex drive.

Huh, thanks! That really helped. I thought people with fetishes tended to be into things like sex and nudity, especially with reality defying fetishes like macrophillia. I usally think this because so many giantess stories and art I see usally involve some level of nudity or sex.

Definitely not weird at all. I'm pretty much similar to your initial description: Not interested in any one or gender romantically. Some people are just more interested than others.

What about having a fetish that many people are into with sex and nudity? However, liking that fetish without any sex or nudity.

In terms of the fetish, macro/microphilia is up there (heh) as one of the most common fetishes out there (look at how it leaks over into pop culture with how many growing/shrinking episodes there are in many different shows). A lot of people find interest in others who are physically larger than themselves, some just like greater height differences.
There's also a lot of interesting psych stuff written on macrophilia that I would recommend looking up.

How old are you?

If you're still within the age of like 14-15, just chill and let time do its work first. Your balls just dropped, wait until you grow a solid amount of hair on them before you worry about emptying them.

If older: That's called being Asexual.

I know macrophillia is a pretty common fetish, but it seems like most people who have that are usally into sex and nudity.

I am not within that age and I do already have a solid amount of hair. I know I am asexual, but I am just curious of how common people are who fit that description.

I never said I was! That's what I am trying to find out, so please don't hurt me Lillie!

I just mentioned hair to stay in the balls topic, I don't care about your twinkness.

There's a term floating out there called "hetero-amorous" (Google is your friend), meaning that you aim for a romantic attraction with the opposite sex but not necessarily wish to bone them (for example you could still be a homosexual alongside, meaning that you still aim to pound solid man ass but just not date man ass).

Twist those terms a bit, and I guess you could call yourself "heteroromantic macrosexual." This is going into Tumblr gender rainbows a bit, but hey as long we can call a spade a spade; it still makes you an oddball but at least we know there are similar situations.

If I have a Tumblr name then I guess I am weird!

You just earned yourself another hour in the ballpit.

Can I get a refund for not having Welcome to Night Vale?

So do you by any chance have copy of the DashCon movie?

Also to be quite honest you don't sound or seem weird. Being romantically interested in people and not being driven by sex is perfectly fine. Just as long as you don't get hung up on the one that got away.

Well isn't it weird to be like that and have a fetish like macrophillia as well?

If you're on this website, you're more than likely weird by default.

Also I'm pretty sure that's called asexuality.

Eh fair point. However, how would I know what websites are normal if I am weird?
Also I mentioned that earlier.

i have a question ol buddy ol pal, if you don't mind; why are you so concerned about this?

I don't mind. I am not concerned about this, but extremely curious over how weird or unique I am. I also would like to know how this kind of thing would impact how weird or unique I am perceived as.

In my opinion, there's no such thing as a "normal" person. Everyone has at least one "weird" fetish, whether they admit it or not. There's nothing wrong with that. It's not really possible to quantify weirdness in any useful way.

Wikipedia has a whole list of them, and out of that list I have at least four; most of mine are definitely regarded as pretty weird. I like the quote they included, "Like allergies, sexual arousal may occur from anything under the sun, including the sun." You say you're into larger people, for all you know the person calling you weird may be into putting on a latex suit and pretending they are a cow. Tomato-tomato potato-potato, the only kind of fetishes that people will really judge another for are illegal ones. Literally, if they act upon them.

Your posts are indeed informative – thank you…Just a newbie here :)

If you are refering to me then my response is "No problemo!"

Thanks for a lot of the helpful information. I don't know if everyone has a "weird" fetish, but I admit a lot of people must have. My only real fetish is macrophillia and the rest of my fetishes I consider under that big umbrella. I am more saying that having a fetish like this and being asexual and not aromantic is weird. I am not saying that just having this fetish is weird.

What ever floats your boat. Just don't go full Deviantart. Okay?

Too late! I already have a Davientart account with my fetish art! http://zacharyxnyc.deviantart.com/

I'm a nice guy so I won't judge…
