A crush fetish is a paraphilia which primarily consists of the desire to see others (generally a desirable potential partner) crush small creatures such as insects, mammals and reptiles. Inanimate objects, such as cigarettes, fruit or toy cars, can also be crush fetish stimuli. The term “crush fetishist” also refers to those who perform the crushing.

Crushing by feet can be the main focus (although other methods are implemented, such as sitting on the target object). The foot (barefoot or in shoes) is thus often idolised in crush erotica such as magazines, audio tapes and crush films.

In 1999, the United States Congress enacted a statute specifically directed at crush films which criminalized the creation, sale and possession of depictions of animal cruelty. In 2008, the United States Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit invalidated the ban on the sale and possession of such films (if not otherwise obscene) under the Freedom of Speech Clause of First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution.
