Coulrophilia

The sexual attraction or obsession for clowns is known as coulrophilia. In addition to additional anecdotal tales of clown obsessions, there are several online forums where people discuss their fetishes despite the fact that there is very little reference material about this purported fetish. This sexual attraction is obviously active, albeit rather specialized.

Clowns also appear in pornography, BDSM situations, and dreams. In terms of role-playing, clowns give people the opportunity to act humorously and stupidly.

Clown obsession, bozophilia, and clown paraphilia are other names for coulrophilia. It is the antithesis of clown phobia, which is a fear of clowns.

More About Coulrophilia

Although the term "coulrophilia" strictly only describes an attraction to clowns, many people use it to describe other comparable acts, such as mimes and jesters. Coulrophiles frequently have a preference for a certain kind of clown, such as a sexy, humorous, or frightening clown. The physical appearance of clowns and their related sexual behaviors, like slapping someone with rubber fowl or smashing a pie in their face (which is similar to sploshing), may appeal to europhiles. Clown sex, or having sex while disguised as a clown, is another activity that coulrophiles may enjoy.

Although there hasn't been any official research on coulrophobia, some individuals think that some childhood event or incident makes coulrophiles attracted to clowns or to dressing like them. Clowns, according to another notion, are attractive because, beneath their makeup, they may be anyone—familiar or weird.

Clowns also frighten a lot of people, and this fear and thrill may contribute to the obsession.

Clown-themed pornographic videos are also produced to cater to Europhiles.
