Inflatophilia
Inflatophilia is the strong attraction to and/or love of inflatable objects. As with other paraphilias, the attraction is frequently erotic or sexually stimulating.
Inflatophiles may enjoy any number of different styles of inflatable items or combinations thereof. Popular items include traditional latex balloons, inflatable furniture, and inflatables made for the beach and pool which can range from air floats to pool toy animals. Although sexual interest is common, some inflatophiles merely find air-filled structures pleasurable to view, interact with, and appealing to the touch.
The term can also be used to refer to those with interests related to body inflation, expansion or weight gain of other people and things which may not be made of rubber, vinyl or other traditional inflatable materials, though this is less common. Taken in a strictly literal sense, the term refers to any sexual interest connected to the overall growth in size of one of the subjects, and as such does have some overlap with macrophilia, fatfurs, and to a lesser extent, breast expansion, hypertrophilia, and variants on the body part growth theme.
It is not uncommon to find inflatophiles in the furry fandom who are also balloonies and have inflatable-themed characters. Rubberfurs may also be naturally attracted to inflatophilia.
