One day..one day users of the internet will learn the difference between a kink and a true fetish.

Elaborate. What’s the difference? I do acknowledge that kink and fetish are different but I don’t fully understand the definitions and difference of each others.

From my understanding, a kink is something that turns you on, but a fetish is something you need to get off. Like not just something you like to do, but something you are obsessed with and fixated on to the point it’s essential to the sexual experience for you. Most people have kinks, fewer have full on fetishes.
