For this week's kink, let's start our journey by defining the type of kink Oculolinctus falls under. Partialism refers to a sexual fixation on a specific body part that is considered more important than the genitals and is essential for sexual arousal and pleasure. It is often seen as a fetish that replaces conventional genital-focused sexual activity. This fascination with a specific body part is not limited to a particular gender or sexual orientation, as partialism is prevalent among heterosexual men, gay men, women, transgender and nonbinary individuals, bisexual people, and more.

“Ultimately, I’d like to use my tongue to explore the eye more – tongue fuck an eyeball, if you will – but no one has been comfortable with more than a lick, either giving or receiving. Although, is it skeezy to admit that if I’m giving a guy a blow job and he asks me to run his dick over my face, I’m most definitely rubbing it over my eyes?”

-Ella Rose

Oculophilia, specifically the arousal from eyes, serves as an example of partialism, which can range from aesthetic and visual appreciation to a kink that includes finding the texture, taste, and smell of eyes and eyeballs erotic. However, activities like eyeball licking have faced health concerns such as the spread of infections.

Oculolinctus, also known as worming and eyeball licking, is an act performed for sexual arousal and pleasure where one person licks another person's eyeball. However, caution and hygiene are crucial when engaging in this activity. It is recommended to thoroughly rinse the mouth with water after eating, as eyeballs are sensitive and can be irritated by spices or citrus. Additionally, it is essential to be aware that oral herpes can be transmitted through the eye. Hence, practicing safe eyeball licking means avoiding it during any signs of a herpes breakout.

In 2013, a trend known as oculolinctus, or eyeball licking, gained popularity among teenagers in Japan, resulting in a concerning increase in eye infections. The practice was often viewed as a new form of intimacy, with some considering it a progression from kissing. It was even featured in a music video by the Japanese band Born. However, it is essential to note that further analysis revealed that some of these reports may have been exaggerated or even false, suggesting the possibility of a hoax.
