A North Carolina man was arrested on several charges after the police finally caught him for allegedly having sexual relations with a woman’s vehicle for the past three years.
Mechanophilia, also known as mechaphilia, is defined as having a sexual attraction to machinery, such as vehicles, bicycles, aircraft, and other mechanical objects. While it is an uncommon fetish, over the last three years, an 82-year-old woman’s vehicle has been the object of attraction for a man who reportedly practices mechanophilia.
According to reports, the man, who had no familiarity with the car’s owner, had been visiting her property and performing lewd acts on the automobile. The man allegedly sexually relieved himself on the vehicle many times over the years, in addition to urinating on it. When the woman spotted the wet remnants the first few times, she believed it was due to a mechanical malfunction and brought the car to the shop.
