How does it not apply? I mean as I said since as long as I can remember just the sight of female undergarments has always made me happy. Not that I don't like anything else about a woman, just that in particular.

It's a preference. You like it. No more, no less.

To answer your question, some women will be fine with it, some won't. I personally wouldn't have an issue with it, set forth as you describe it. It sounds like something that you like, but that you don't need for an intimate relationship (trying to keep it PG13 here).
Perfect advice...I was thinking along these lines too regarding that particular word. It really isn't a you-know-what forum, it's a relationships forum.

As for guys in general liking underwear...I do think it's a pretty common thing. There can be a lot of reasons for it. Even if it does come off quickly, LOL, it can add something to the experience. BUT, of course, if she doesn't want to do it and you push her, she will naturally feel you are objectifying her and that she isn't enough just being who she is. It will indeed turn her off.

If this is very critical to you then you really do need to find someone who already thinks along these lines, or at least is open to the idea, or you absolutely will run into problems and that balloon will deflate before it can ever take off. Wait...that's probably not any sort of actual analogy. Whatever, you get the drift, I'm sure.

The general definition has traditionally been attraction to a "non sexual" object/thing. Lingerie is a sexual object, in my book.

But I'm sure you can find plenty of definitions. Still, the advice Mish gave stands.

My partner has made no secret about his desire to see me in long dresses. In fact, we are stopping by the store after work today to see if we can find some more.

Seeing me in a long dress makes him happy. No doubt about that.

However, his gratification is not linked to me wearing long dresses. That is, he can still be, erm, "happy", if I am wearing something else.

Therefore, by definition, not a fetish.

Something making you happy and something that makes you sexually aroused are two different things.
Mr. CSD is happy when I fix his favorite meal but his favorite meal does not sexually arouse him.
