If Adams Apples are primarily male, why aren't they a common fetish?

They're a secondary sexual characteristic, so it seems like something that would get attention.

Why do you think anything primarily male would be a fetish?

Prostate cancer, you’re next

Wait, is prostate cancer the next fetish, or you’re wishing me to be the next prostate cancer patient?

There is a super depressing story of a YouTuber named Leathersmokemi who died engaging in a similar fetish. Nick Crowley did a good video on him. I don't know of a fetish centered on prostate cancer specifically but there are cancer fetishists and the fetish centered on terminal illness is called nosaphillia so it's certainly possible that there are fetishists already out there focused on prostate cancer specifically.

That's horrifying.

There are also people who eat themselves to death for other people, like that avocado guy, and it's just awful to know about.

It's probably because a huger number of prominent secondary sexual sex characteristics get fetishized.

A brief search seems to show that it's an attractive quality like masculine forearms, and has a degree of fetish amongst the strangulation fetish community.
