Dendrophilia (paraphilia)
.jpg)
Dendrophilia (or less often arborphilia or dendrophily) literally means "love of trees". The term may sometimes refer to a paraphilia in which people are sexually attracted to or sexually aroused by trees. This may involve sexual contact or veneration as phallic symbols or both.[1] Andrew Marvell made poetry using dendrophilic themes.[2][3]
Description[edit]
Many people use vegetables and fruits such as cucumbers or carrots to insert into their vagina or anus as an object to receive sexual pleasure or orgasms when they masturbate. In men, holes can be used inside trees or trunks, assimilating the shape of a vagina, through which the penis is inserted.
Many people experience feelings toward plants after having sex in a garden, forest, greenhouse, or bedroom with many plants. The use of flowers to caress the body is also included in dendrophilia.
It is widely regarded as illegal to act upon such thoughts in public due to Indecent exposure, and people have been arrested for such attempts [4]
In popular culture[edit]
- In the movie 40 Days and 40 Nights, Josh Hartnett's girlfriend reaches orgasm in this way when he was carrying out a sexual fast for Lent. [citation needed]
- In an episode of the Mexican-American series Case Closed, a man said that he reached orgasm through a fruit and that he could not please his wife in the usual way.[5]
