Overview:
Now that everyone and their dog has access to the Internet at home, at work, on the train, on dates, in movie theaters, and wherever else they feel the need to detach themselves from reality, public perception of certain things is starting to change. Take a look at any sexually-oriented discussion regarding fetishism and you'll likely find a bunch of inexperienced fools declaring their "fetishes" for breasts, upper thighs, deepthroat blowjobs, facial cumshots, and anal sex. Fools! These erotic preferences are inherently sexual and therefore can't be fetishes! Teaching these guys the true meaning of fetishism is no simple task; it might require them to examine the evidence provided by the 37 exclusive websites hosted by Fetish Network. Covering all kinds of kinky sexual proclivities practiced by those who've long ago decided to give in to their most base desires, to live their sexual life free of societal restraints; rope, chain, and leather restraints, however, are a different matter entirely. For $39.95 a month you can buy yourself access to every one of these 37 websites, but, as is often the case for niche adult sites like these, signing up blindly is a risky proposition. While it'd take forever and a day to cover every aspect of this large and wide-ranging network, Mr. Pink will do the best he can, and, dear readers, it's all for you!

Pros:
True to its name, Fetish Network connects 37 kinky fetishism websites under one figurative roof. With lots of wildly different niches, fetishes, and styles of porn held here - smoking, trampling, face-sitting, rope, chain, and leather bondage, forced orgasms, spanking, fem-dom, hosiery, fisting, ethnically oriented hardcore, transsexuals, latex, and a whole bunch more - Fetish Network aims to satisfy every socially unacceptable itch.

Strong performances from impressive stars of yesterday and today can be found scattered around the network. Not all performers are as accomplished as the likes of Jenna Haze, Jamie Lynn, Misti Dawn, Capri Anderson, or Sarah Shevon, sure, but even the lesser known performers generally do an ace job with whatever debasing fetish activity they've been tasked with.

While the schedule could certainly be more regular, new content is nonetheless added to Fetish Network's master update list almost every day. The numerous sites are on different update schedules and there are occasional two, three, four day gaps in the update stream, but these additions to the existing 3,200 scenes are very welcome indeed. There's even a collection of live shows that have been archived for your convenience.

Instead of forcing you to immediately fork out the nearly forty dollar cost of membership just to get a closer look inside the collection, Fetish Network now offers a free two-day trial membership that recurs as a regular membership. As long as you cancel before the trial expires, you'll have a brief, but totally free, pass to Fetish Network.

Cons:
Fetish Network's main hindrance to success is the low visual quality of much of its content. While Missogyny hosts stunning 1080p HD videos, it is the only Fetish Network site to do so. Other sites generally peak around the 600x400 pixel mark when it comes to videos. Photos are largely unavailable with only screencap galleries accompany most network scenes. The screencaps, like the videos, generally peak at 600x400px and are a miserable substitute for decent photo galleries.

The apparent age of much Fetish Network content is another cause of major disappointment. Judging by the technical aspects (resolutions, image quality et. al.), as well as the hair and clothing styles, most of this content seems to come from the early days of the 21st century. Hey, it makes a great time capsule, but fetishistic porn didn't cease production in 2004.

Of the 37 sites hosted by Fetish Network, all but ten have yet to reach the 100-scene mark; some have even ceased updating entirely. While it's great to have so many sites available to members, culling the website roster and focusing on the better, more popular sites would likely lead to a stronger network.

Some sites that once offered photo galleries have now, strangely enough, taken them offline, rendering them unavailable to members. There is also a small number of sites that are clearly rotating their content, giving the appearance of a continued stream of new updates when that is certainly not the case. Other sites still host nonexclusive content that can be found elsewhere on the 'net.

Conclusion:
Fetish Network aims to provide its members with a staggering array of kinky BDSM and fetish content, enough to keep said members well pleased and rock hard for months on end. In reality, though, that doesn't seem all that likely. Yes, there's a plentiful collection available here, but most sites are filled with low quality videos that appear to have been produced anywhere between five and fifteen years ago. Missogyny, a site devoted to a dominatrix of the same name who delights in punishing and torturing the hottest alt.pornstars of today, is the only site offering High Definition videos - they look brilliant at 1080p - but since no other Fetish Network sites can match this level of quality and consistency, Missogyny serves as a glimpse of what Fetish Network could be.
