Surface Forms

freakiness singular
freakinesses plural

Morphology

freakiness = freaky (semi-transparent) = freak + y + ness

The form is the nominalization of 'freaky', but the sense often carries specialized social/sexual connotations that go beyond a purely compositional 'strange-ness'.

Etymology

Freakiness comes from freak + -ness, and because freak was used for people who like unusual things, the word can mean 'not usual' or unconventional behavior, especially in sexual or personal ways. That's why someone's freakiness can mean they enjoy daring or different kinds of expression.
