What is navel fetishism?

Navel fetishism, also known as omphalophilia, is a sexual attraction to navels. It is considered a specific type of body part fetishism. People who have a navel fetish may be aroused by the sight, touch, or even the thought of navels.

Navel fetishism is not uncommon, and there are a number of websites and communities dedicated to it. There has also been some research into the phenomenon, which has suggested that a number of factors may contribute to the development of a navel fetish, including genetic predisposition, cultural conditioning, and personal experience.

In some cases, a navel fetish may cause significant distress or disruption to a person's life. If you are experiencing significant distress or impairment due to your navel fetish, it is important to seek treatment from a qualified mental health professional. Treatment may involve cognitive-behavioral therapy, sex therapy, or medication.
