For me it was muscle women and all u had in the early 90s was magazine’s. Buy them that’s all. Maybe lucky u find a piece on one girl or two and that’s all for a $5.95 magazine. The net provided more around 1998 with wpw and muscle central plus muscleville. Reg bradford comes to mind also. But it feels like a 100 years to me.

Indeed but did you know other fetishes existed even if you thought they were gross. or did you assume people were only into regular women and muscle
I didn’t know anything about muscle fetishes before 1990. In those days, my main exposure to muscular women was Women’s Physique World magazine, the original American Gladiators TV series, the documentary Pumping Iron:The Women, and the very rare glimpse of female muscle on a commercial, TV show, or movie (like Jenette Goldstein in Aliens).
It is difficult to determine the precise knowledge or awareness that the average adult in 1990 or earlier had about specific fetishes or unconventional interests, as societal attitudes and access to information varied greatly during that time. The internet has undoubtedly played a significant role in facilitating the spread of information and exposure to diverse interests, including fetishes.
Before the internet, to create or find or share anything for/to a small audience was not economically easy. Before the internet, the effort needed to deliberately look for odd things that people are into... well, it was too much work for the small amount of entertainment.
For your question, people before 1990 knew about the things they put effort into learning about. Adults knew that fetishes existed but did not devote days/weeks to find out about things they weren't personally interested in. Now, it's nearly a trivial task to discover odd things other people like. Those who want to know about odd things, do. Those who don't want to know, still don't.

Getting WPW VHS videos in the mail does seem like 100 years ago.
but basically i want to know how much the average adult in 1990 or earlier knew about fetishes and other weird things that they are not personally into.
The "average" adult likely wasn't aware of most fetishes, but I'm sure there were many who kept in the know. Pre-internet, these things were discovered by word of mouth or literature (books, magazines, newspapers, etc.), but it was certainly much more taboo to bring these things up openly. Basically once the Internet became more accessible and porn became more commonplace, it just kind of turned mainstream what was already an underground thing.
An example would be that lots of guys had a stash of Playboy mags (or Hustler, or w/e) kept somewhere out of sight. Everyone knows the joke about subscribing to Playboy for the articles, but some guys actually did read them.
I'm 39 so all of that is a little before my time, but I'm going mostly by what I remember of the "dad generation" of that time.
Perhaps dating myself, but I do recall mags like Sports Review Wrestling and various pro-wrestling mags from mid-late 1970s. The pro-mags occasionally had fetish type articles. Of course, the classifieds also were interesting. The 80s saw the beginning of G.R. doing his thing in Europe first with the German Mat Club and eventually DWW. I think Academy Productions and WPW both began in the '80s
So i wanted to ask this for a while but i don't know were. if i asked on reddit i would probably get mass downvoted and banned .but basically i want to know how much the average adult in 1990 or earlier knew about fetishes and other weird things that they are not personally into. like for example furries femdom fat vore pretty much anything. these days i know about these things because i run into them online on accident and me and my friends sometimes make jokes about them .while i am old enough to remember a time before the internet was a big deal by the time i hit puberty i was using it. everything seemed very pure and innocent back then but i know female muscle content existed before the internet.
