I was telling a friend of mine that I realized too late that I should save the chicken fat for making soap, and he accused me of having a "fetish". I tried to explain that it only makes sense to use every part of what you have, and he still did not retract it. I told him he needed sensitivity training.:twisted:
 
I agree. It is smart not to let anything go to waste if there is a use for it. I guess he has been taken in by our wasteful world.
 
I agree with Lin and Ruthie.

Does he know the meaning of fetishes?
And if he does know the meaning, what does he think you do when making soap or with the soap you make?
 
I think he is confusing fetish with obsession. I *think* a fetish is always sexual, like having intensely passionate romantic feelings toward bald people only, or stuffed animals.

As for obsessions, I think we all have them to a point, but sometimes we can get away with calling it a hobby. :)
 
chicken fat fries. that's tasty!

does your friend understand what 'fetish' means?? odd.....
