2. A dacryphiliac is sexually aroused by tears and sobbing, often deriving pleasure from another person's emotional distress

3. Symphorophiliacs are erotically turned on by car crashes and catastrophes, whether it's watching or even staging one of their own (do not try this!)

4. Hybristophiliacs are obsessed and sexually attracted to criminals, especially if they've committed extreme ones such as rape and murder.

Also known as the "Bonnie and Clyde Syndrome", hybristophiliacs often send "fan mail" of romantic and sexual nature to high-profile criminals in prison. In some cases, they even go on to marry the object of their affections in prison!

4. Dendrophilia literally means "love of trees", but some people take it to a whole new level of weird with their sexual attraction for trees

5. Objectophiliacs have very strong feelings of love and even have sexual connections with inanimate objects of their fixation, so don't get too attached to your smartphones!

6. It is entirely possible to have a sexual attraction for machines. Mechanophiliacs fall in love and even have sex with robots, air vehicles and motor vehicles... especially cars.

7. Having a doll or mannequin fetish is relatively normal compared to ursusagalmatophilia, otherwise known as a fetish for teddy bears and stuffed animals

8. Paraphilic infantilism, in which one derives sexual pleasure from dressing up and imagining themselves as an infant. Diapers included.

9. Some guys get a kick out of having their balls kicked in. Known as ball-busting, some men are apparently turned on at the thought of a woman controlling them by their testicles.

A more extreme variation known as ederacinism refers to sexual pleasure that comes from the thought of tearing out sexual organs by the roots. Why anyone would get turned on just by thinking about having his testicles pulled out is a mystery to us.

10. Psychrophiliacs get hot and bothered when they come into contact with extremely cold objects or watching others freeze

11. Emetophilia is this thing where a person gets sexually (and horribly) aroused through vomiting and observing others vomit

12. Menophiliacs are super turned on at the sight, smell or taste of a menstruating. Okay, no. Just... NO.

13. Salirophilia is a sexual fetish that involves deriving erotic pleasure from soiling or disheveling the object of one's desire e.g. tearing or damaging their clothing, covering them in mud or filth, or messing up their hair or makeup

Another variation of this particular fetish, mysophilia refers to a person who finds dirt, soiled underwear, faeces (coprophilia), or urine (urophilia) to be sexually arousing. It is possible for mysophiliacs to be aroused by unclean locales, such as an alleyway, or a dirty room/bathroom; wearing the same clothing for many days at a time; or not bathing, from mere days to several weeks.

14. Licking each other's eyeballs - oculolinctus - became a pretty popular erotic act in Japan in 2013. Then people started getting eye infections.

15. A fetish focused on limb amputations, an acrotomophiliac finds amputees sexually desirable

Not to be confused with apotemnophilia, a type of sexual arousal based on the fantasy of one's self as an amputee.

Another variation, teratophilia is used to describe sexual arousal from deformed of monstrous people.

16. Imagine having insects and small creatures crawling all over your body and nibbling at your flesh... 50 shades of nope, right? Not for formicophiliacs!

17. Done exclusively by bronies, clopping refers to bronies pleasuring themselves when they're watching 'My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic'

18. Zoophilia is used to describe a human's sexual fixation on animals, while bestiality refers to the act itself. By that, we mean cross-species relations between human and non-human animals.

Some really messed up people derive pleasure from cruelty towards animals too, coined as zoosadism.

19. Instead of being sexually attracted to normal, warm-blooded humans, necrophiliacs prefer to have sexual relations with corpses. Dead people. And maybe zombies.

20. Vorarephiliacs get really turned on when they fantasise about being eaten alive and swallowed whole by another, er, creature
