Rfv-sense: Someone with an amputee fetish. Quick glance suggests it's disabilities in general. I'm not willing to read fetish websites for this RFV Denazz (talk) 15:16, 11 October 2024 (UTC)Reply

Wikipedia shows that it means a fetish for disabilities in general. i think it's just that amputee fetishism is so much more common than all the others (and while its hard to define what a disability is, missing a limb is obvious) and so it got used as a pars pro toto.

Added a few cites. I wonder if we should use the word "fetish" or a less loaded synonym such as "paraphilia", or even a simpler phrasing like "sexually attracted". This, that and the other (talk) 08:53, 25 October 2024 (UTC)Reply
