the dictionary had a synonym "degenerate" thats to bad, I think Kinky is a positive attribute.

The translations ofered Wiktionary miss the mark - the suggested Russian and Portuguese equivalents mean "perverted" (izvrashennyj, pervetido). That sounds a lot more negative than "kinky", which can be either neutral or positive depending on audience or context.

Krispuma? (A sort of calque from the original meaning of kinky.)
Malpruda?

Or, does the word "kinky" imply some type of weirdness mixed into the desire?
It could be strang-seks-impulsemo, but I don't really like it because the word is so big.
One thing that I dislike about a language that has suffixes is that the words can get huge. I was in the Frankfurt airport and the German word for water fountain was enormous.

I think when e.g. Marx talked about 'commodity fetishism' he wasn't talking about conducting an unsavoury relationship with your washing machine.

tordita, "twisted"
Vestitor:Is 'kinky' (having a kink) specifically related to sex? It is a bit like the word fetish which has no automatic link with sex at all, but the phrase 'sexual fetish' is now often expressed as just 'fetish' and people think it is a specifically sexual word.I would argue that kinky, in this sense of the word, definitely implies some sort of sexual gratification. Today it's generally more of a positive word than perverted, with a sense of taking pleasure in being outside the norms and not being "straight."
From the Online Etymology Dictionary:
kinky (adj.)
1844, "full of kinks, twisted, curly," from kink + -y (2). Meaning "odd, eccentric, crotchety" is from 1859; that of "sexually perverted" is from 1959. Related: Kinkiness.
