Balloon fetish
A balloon fetish is a fetish that involves balloons.[1][2][3] A balloon fetishist is also referred to as a "looner".[4] Some balloon fetishists "revel in the popping of balloons and [others] may become anxious and tearful at the very thought of popping balloons".[5] Though experiencing extreme fear, anxiety or panic at the thought, sight, sound, touch and smell of balloons is more commonly referred to as "globophobia" and not considered a fetish. Other balloon fetishists enjoy blowing up balloons or deflating them.[6]
Examples
[edit]Geiru Toneido, a fictional homicidal clown and balloon artist from Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Spirit of Justice, has a heavy focus on balloons as part of her character, with a large amount of balloon based innuendos (it is a running gag throughout her appearance that her "balloons" are a double entendre to her well-endowed chest). Geiru has developed notoriety online as a "clussy" with a large amount of "NSFW" art produced. This art often has a heavy focus on the sexualisation of balloons, as per Geiru's character gimmicks.[7]
