That's not exactly true. There are no categories for fetishes in the same vein that there are no categories for phobias. It's just that people have gotten so use to generalizing EVERYTHING that they have made a fetish mean roughly the same as a genre. But every single fetish is a singular thing. There are no groups.Fetishes belong in categories. Genres are categories. You guys really are agressive, for some reason.
If a game has fetishes I don't like, I won't play. If a book belongs to a genre I don't care for, I won't read. Capisci?
For instance, BDSM is a genre/category of sexual interest. BDSM have fetishes that are typically involved within it but even outside BDSM those fetishes still exist. In the same vein that while romantic comedies tend to have fanservice in them, fanservice isn't something directly tied to romantic comedies and Rom Coms don't have to have fanservice. One is the genre and the other is just content that may or may not exist within them.
100% agree of not reading something that has content you don't like though. Don't get made if it has something you don't like and don't get mad because it doesn't add something you do like.
