This study surveys the discharge register of a large London teaching hospital over 20 years and presents data on its 48 cases of clinical sexual fetishism. An attempt was made to answer two questions: (1) What are the clinical problems these patients present? They have more to do with the perception of fetishes as personally or socially unacceptable than with 'objective' restrictions placed on sexual activity. (2) What is the classification used to describe? The data have not enabled any conclusions to be drawn about the existence of particular fetishist syndromes. Certainly, a fifth or more of the sample had fetishes for clothes or rubber or rubber items, or wore or stole a fetish or fetishes; but this information is insufficient to allow one to assume that these patients had something significant in common, and leaves open the question of what more precisely each individual was attracted to.
本研究调查了一家大型伦敦教学医院20多年来的出院登记记录，并呈现了其48例临床性恋物癖病例的数据。研究试图回答两个问题：（1）这些患者呈现出哪些临床问题？这些问题更多地与将恋物癖视为个人或社会不可接受的观念有关，而非与对性行为的“客观”限制有关。（2）用于描述的分类是什么？这些数据未能就特定恋物癖综合征的存在得出任何结论。当然，样本中有五分之一或更多的人对衣物、橡胶或橡胶制品有恋物癖，或穿着或偷窃一件或多件恋物；但这些信息不足以让人假定这些患者有显著的共同之处，也未解决每个人具体被什么吸引这一问题。
