      Here’s my attempt

      Tier 1: primary and secondary sex characteristics (my breast fetish is cliche); indicators of health or fertility such as muscles and flat/bigger stomachs (depending on whether starvation or obesity is a bigger concern where you are). This zone is the default, people assume you’re into this.

      Tier 2: other body parts such as feet, pits, body hair; extrapolations from tier 1 kinks such as lactation and post workout stink; I’ll also throw in role related ones such as mom/dad bods, being into certain professions or older/younger (adult) partners; also atypical body variants and body types not associated with health or fertility. This zone is normal but not the default

      Tier 3: I’d say is where you get into light bdsm, humanoid monster fuckers, etc. This zone is stuff where it’s way more common than people act, but still not the sort of thing normal people will casually mention

      Tier 4: heavier bdsm, nonhuman monsterfuckers. This is the “hear me out” zone and the realm of you know you’re kinky af, but it’s generally considered prudish to have a problem with people liking it, but not to not want to hear anything about it

      Tier 5: scat, flatulence, bug chasing, and other things where even the tier 4 people are often uncomfortable with it. Typically gross and/or destructive

        Gotta have a tier 0 for the ace/pan/demi/etc out there. Though agreed people generally assume tier 1. … Although pansexual is probably tier 1, too, otherwise that seems more demi.

          Ace people without kinks do not have kinks and have not been included in this tier list. Neither have been the people who find people attractive but have no particular focus to their attraction beyond finding people attractive for the same reason. It’s not “I think boobs are part of what makes a woman attractive” it’s “oh I’m an absolute tit girl”. It’s just that it’s extremely common to have a sexual focus on one or more sex characteristics or a specific normative body type.
