at what point does a preference become a sexual fetish?

for example: I personally find Asian men more attractive than other men just based on physical features. Its No different than saying “I prefer blondes over brunettes“ or “I prefer tall men over short men”.  So at what point does this type of preference become a sexual fetish? Is it when you start looking at a whole race (or any specific group of people) as sexual objects or is it at a point before that?

    Honey, preferring a certain type of looking man is not a fetish.  

    Not even close.   Unless you can only get off by sitting on his slanty eyes or something.

  • I know, I know. I’m just curious about others opinions on this because I found a comment section on Facebook and people are sh*tting on this girl for saying something pretty vulgar and sexual about men of another race. 
    But no one can seem to draw a line between what isn’t a fetish And what is.

    I don't think it is. When I think of the word fetish, I think more along the lines of an unusual sexual activity. Like feet worship, trampling and whipping.

    Tell you the truth.  I don't know.  I like women who wear trash bags and I also like wearing trash bags, so I have been trying to figure this out as well.  I like wearing unused plastic garbage, trash, bin bag/liners and sometimes I have trouble blurring the lines between the two.
