ermm conditional reflexes?
it really depends how we define what a fetish is though. I am not good at making sciencey definitions...
here's one from APA:
>a material object (e.g., a shoe, an undergarment, an animal fur or hide) or nonsexual part of the body (e.g., a foot, lock of hair) that arouses sexual interest or excitement.

Fetishes are deeply influenced by culture. While individual desires and neurobiology play a role, sociocultural factors shape what is considered attractive, taboo, or stimulating. How this dynamic unfolds depends on the specific context:Socialization: Societies dictate sexual norms, and fetishes often develop as an outlet for cultural taboos, restrictions, or societal values.Cultural Fetishization: This occurs when people reduce an entire race, ethnicity, or culture to a set of idealized, superficial, or stereotyped sexual traits, ignoring the full humanity of the individuals involved.Historical Origins: Historically, the concept of a "fetish" originated in early modern cross-cultural exchanges, later evolving into sociological, economic, and psychological frameworks.

Popular kinks and sexual fantasies range from mild sensory exploration to deeper power dynamics. While preferences are highly personal, several activities frequently top sexological surveys and community discussions as the most common and widely practiced.BDSM and Bondage: Encompasses power exchange (Dominance/Submission), impact play (spanking), and physical restraints using ropes or cuffs.Blindfold Sex: Sensory deprivation is highly favored because it heightens the remaining senses and helps alleviate performance anxiety by removing the pressure to look or perform perfectly.Roleplay: Acting out varied scenarios—such as nurse/patient or teacher/student—allows partners to safely explore different power dynamics and taboos in the bedroom.Group Sex: Fantasizing about or participating in threesomes, orgies, or swinging is an incredibly common desire for a large percentage of individuals looking for variety and shared validation.Exhibitionism & Voyeurism: Enjoying the thrill of being watched (or watching a partner) during intimate moments.Foot Fetishes: A highly recognized and surprisingly common preference for foot worship, massages, or the use of footwear in erotic play.

Some fetishes are just straight up weird and cringey and unhinged...Degeneracy. such as Zoophilia,Pedophilia and Mechaphilia for example. I know 2 of them are illegal in all nations or at least in the civilized world anyways.

We all know that you would be satisfied with a cock in your arse or mouth. One of your favorite fetishes is probably a Creampie,ifykyk.

I'll answer seriously. The real question is in the first moment, why someone would like that. Let's imagine a common homosexual fetish like shit eating for example. At some point it must have seemed normal enough to just try sticking your tongue in some shit. What turns it into a fetish though is rewarding yourself with an orgasm each time you do to the point you create a path of behavior that releases chemicals needed in the brain. So what possesses someone to try in the first place? Social instruction embedded in cultural brainwash? Sadness and pain? Self loathing? The mere fact it is forbidden alone is not enough of an explanation, otherwise everyone would be doing it and it would no longer be taboo so no one would do it anymore.
