The Freudian fetishist is defined by the fact that his desire is not primarily for the woman. {..} fetish is a "transitional object" – helping the toddler bridge his fear and loneliness. Having this unconsciously remembered evidence of mother's warmth and reassurance with him, he is encouraged to go forward into sexual pleasures. {..} Another fascinating aspect of fetishistic thinking is the extraordinary amount of detail connected to the object. The fetish is lovingly described, lingeringly examined.
