“When I see someone in sweatpants, it’s like they either have no need to be presentable whatsoever, or they’re so cool and confident they’re just wearing what makes them comfortable,” says Alex Gorosh, a California-based director and editor. “It's all about perverting the mundane, which is just a fundamental function of human sexuality,” she said.

Horn notes that people usually fetishize tight clothing - latex, spandex, rubber - which, viewed through a Freudian lens, “could represent a return to the womb, or a full body embrace.” So, conversely, a preference for soft, loose apparel could be interpreted as some kind of release or freedom from compression. The sweatpants exhibitionist gets the plausible deniability that they’re not showing off, and the sweatpants voyeur gets the thrill of witnessing something, like a dick, that they’re ‘not supposed to be seeing.’” “It’s all about exhibitionism and voyeurism. “Many people are hot for nudity that’s somehow obscured,” says Tina Horn, host and producer of the long-running fetish podcast Why Are People Into That?! and the writer/creator of the sci-fi sex rebel comic SfSx. But the quotidian, mundane nature of grey sweats - who amongst us doesn’t own a pair? - adds to their accidental eroticism. There are certain garments that are harbingers of overt seduction: women in a La Perla bra, he says, or a gay man in a jock strap. Katz has grasped perhaps the most alluring detail of grey sweatpants: their sexiness is unexpected-and, at its best, un-self-aware. And it can be from a semi or just the balls swinging, but you’re like, Oh it’s awake down there there’s activity down there.” “But actually, to me, that’s a little less appealing than when I just know something’s going on down there and there’s a little bit of movement. As felching involves direct contact with sexual fluids, it can be considered an unsafe sex practice that may transmit STDs.Īnother sense of felching is the rumored practice of inserting small animals, such as a gerbil, into an anus for sexual pleasure.“Well, the obvious answer is because you can see the penis in the sweatpants,” says Evan Ross Katz, writer and host of the podcast Shut Up Evan. Others note that felching may include spitting the sexual fluids into a partner’s mouth. Various Urban Dictionary entries note the fact that felching can also be done out of a vagina. Some propose use of a straw for felching.

But the term did make its way into underground comics in 1975 as part of the risqué Felch Cumics. You won’t find felch in any issues of Superman or Batman. It may be an imitation of the sound of the act of felching, although one linguist, according to Green’s Dictionary of Slang, has suggested a connection to filch, which originally meant to “to steal something with a hook.” While the term felch first made its requisite debut on Urban Dictionary in 2003, the term can be traced back to at least 1972, when it was recorded in linguist Ronald Farrell’s article “The Argot of the Homosexual Subculture.” Published only a few years after the Stonewall Riot in New York City, a key moment in the Gay Rights movement, Farrell’s article explored the language of the gay community at the time, including felch, which he recorded as feltch.
