Back to School Pinup Special - The School Girl Fetish


Why is the school girl such popular fantasy? Where does she come from? Join me on an exploration of the school girl fetish.

The school girl is one of the most common fetishes today. I’m sad to say I found no articles about the origins of this one. I can only guess it has to do with Catholic schools being so restricting, that fantasies had to emerge. (For more examples of fantasy growing out of sexual restriction , check out The Vail Fetish Pinup.)

The school girl’s origins may be obscure, but the appeal is very obvious. The young virginal girl on the verge of womanhood has been a fantasy for centuries. You will find this theme hidden in classics like “Dracula” or Henry James’ “Daisy Miller”, or blatantly uttered in the Marquis de Sade’s novels. Here is a very modern adaptation.




The Basic School Girl

The basic school girl fantasy is of a teenage girl, wearing a above-the-knee-length skirt (plaid or in a dark color), knee socks, doll shoes and a white button down shirt (sometimes complete with a tie and jacket). This outfit has originated in Europe and made its way anywhere the Europeans went. It seems however, that the Americans would immortalize this fantasy and lead it to the next step in its evolution.
























School Girls for Adults

Of course, Britney Spears didn’t invent the fad of over-sexualizing the original fantasy. The adult industry loves this fantasy. Like the nurse, the french maid or the stewardess, the school girl has a uniform and a world of associations to go along with it. It opens up a myriad of possible fantasy plots, peaking with S&M in the form of corporal punishment.

















Naturally, people will imitate what they see in on TV. The school girl costume is no exception. It’s a huge hit in the bedroom, and it’s available on the internet in infinite variety:



Harajuku School Girls

Japan is also a country that sports the school uniform. Today, the Japanese sailor-like uniforms are as famous as the west’s tartan skirt and knee socks, and the Japanese school girl is a big fetish in the west. Anime and especially Hentai made sure of that, as the school girl fetish is extremely popular and common in japan.













The Harajukus have their own statements to make and they give a creative twist to the original, also inspired by anime.

Not a Classic Pinup

Try as I might, I haven't found any classic pinups that portray a school girl- uniform and all. My guess is that even Hefner wouldn’t touch what was considered such a risqué subject matter, at the time. However, that didn’t stop the music creators of the time to write songs like this (a great new version of a great oldy):



More School Girls in Music

In 1994 Aerosmith gave a historic boost to the school girl fetish with the single Crazy. Featuring the beautiful and barley legal Alicia Silverstone and Liv Tyler, the video takes advantage of the good girl/bad girl aspect of the school girl fantasy.



Hope you enjoyed the exploration of the school girl fetish. For desert, here are some fantastic neo pinup school girls:
