For some people I think there is a bit of a blur there so that some pleasure can come out of the pain itself or maybe it just makes the pleasure more intense.
I don't really 'get' it but I would think its not the same kind of thing that would cause a foot fetish or the like.

Yeah, it's something most people avoid, which is why it's a fetish..at least according to my definition of the word. And I'm sure that it's not the same thing as a foot fetish but I also would think that each fetish has it's own trigger and that no two fetishes really occur because of the same thing.

I don't think that someone with a fetish has to have that as part of their experience every time though. I mean, I know I don't and, from what I know of other people, most of them don't either. But just because you don't have to have it all the time doesn't make it any less of a fetish either...

I totally skipped this until now. As far as how you discuss it with a partner, you just do. Communication is key if you want to have a mutually pleasing relationship. If it scares them away or something (which I've had happen) then they're probably boring anyways.
