C-B-A - I agree, I prefer humans over all (ESP in RL) else but I enjoy some Elfish and Naga characters also - depends on the style of the Artist when it comes to Fantasy.


I agree with your agree, demihumans are fantastic in fantasy, elf's nagas/lamia, demons ECT....
it just has to be predominantly human and have no fur.


I agree with your.... Eh I just Agree no fur :P

@Dangerous: Oh. Ehehe... that makes you sound a lot less judging of human lovers, I suppose, even if it's still an opinion. ><;

So humans can't be terrifying?

Terror is not necessarily good, unlike "Awesome", is why I don't find the notion judgemental.

So for those who find humans boring because they're too real or not fantastical enough, what about humans with fantastical qualities? Shapeshifting, magic, flight, x-ray vision, stretchiness, unusually perceptive, psychic, destroy the world by raising an eyebrow, turns to ash and resurrects like a phoenix when he dies, carries a swiss army gun, is a normal guy being stalked by friendly and helpful ninjas, can manipulate fire, shuts off electronic devices when near them, can cause people to renounce their religion by flushing a toilet, has retractable claws, has prehensile dreadlocks, is tiny, is giant, is the child of a deity, is cursed by a voodoo shaman, vomits marbles, time travels, or whatever other countless examples you can come up with?

Not trying to argue here or anything like that, just seeking a bit of clarification if it's simply because they're human or if under normal and realistic circumstances that they're too mundane. Just a follow-up question of curiosity stemming from the discussion brought on by my original question of curiosity. The points brought up so far are all interesting and explain a lot, some of which I guessed, some I didn't.

I hate when people reply to a topic like this. :S

IDK about you, but personally I can't think of a case where I would not want my prey to be terrified.

o.0
The only one I have ever experimented with is shapeshifting, and yea that works for me (as a pred, not ever experimented as a shapeshifting prey). But... only if the final form (the form in which the pred does the nomming) is distinctly non-human.

Aaah progress is so close. All you have to do now is look in hindsight and realize you're one person among hundreds with different opinions and we'll get somewhere.

Animals are seen every single day and it's boring.
But with non-fictional races it feels fresh, you want to explore the new race and find out what it's all about.
non-fictional races are exciting.
Animals are boring.

"But Animals can be explore with their personalities, relationships and moral dilemmas!"
And so can Humans.
They can be explore in every way a animal can be explored, but more so.


please let me know where you live where you see anthro animals that talk every day

as for the actual discussion,
a better question might be 'why do you think humans are exciting?' i see hundreds of them every day, most are just plain unattractive (same with peoples human characters)
Here is my personal breakdown of it:
Human males: 100% unattractive
Human females: 95% of them are so slutty that its ugly. 5% of them actually look normal and attractive
Result: if you are a human, there is a 97.5% chance i would rather do something with a FANTASY character for a FANTASY rp (get the fantasy part yet? i dont want reality in my fantasy rp)

I like my Pred to seduce its prey then swallow it TBH.

Once the prey is inside the pred they it can attempt to struggle and please its Pred. I also enjoy using clothing and belts to inhibit the prey from struggling too hard and hurting the Pred. One of my Kinks.

I go to Eka's. Where do you go where there /aren't/ anthro animals that talk /constantly/? INB4 "Online doesn't count". >.>

Also, why do we think humans are exciting? Because we're /not/ misanthropes? It's kind of the default, spurred on by chemical reactions in the brain? Do I need to justify /not/ hating humans? No, I don't. Let the hater do the justifying.

Speaking of which, /implying/ that I haven't been arguing for the fact that humans and anthros are both cool and it just depends on the individual. It's actually amusing in a self-righteous sort of way that people refuse to accept that anthros are not some superior race somehow. As if they aren't just humans with different appearances.

I'm sorry that my tastes are too refined to jump on a hate bandwagon. You see... Haters gonna hate. Haters /always/ hate. There is no illusion of cool anymore.

That's okay. We get to make mistakes. We also get to have opinions. Enjoy~

To you it is. To me it is not.

And since it is my opinion that is more important than anyone else's, and to me it is not - that means it is not. Thus, perfect consistency, in my opinion. :)

with that logic I could say....

why do you find anthros so exiting?
when you break it down it's just animals eating animals that have minor human aspects.
I see animals eating animals everyday on discovery channel, so vore involving animals or predominantly animal is boring and generic.
I can see why you like fantasy, but a human eating human is WAY more in the realm of fantasy then a wolf eating a rabbit, cat eating a mouse, or just what is basically an animal eating another animal, the only difference is it can talk.

and don't forget the argument can go both ways, I see lots of anthropomorphic characters everyday and I can tell you they are very boring, most are wolfs, or some kind of dog, and a majority look the same, I see more diversity of humans at the mall then anthro species on FA.

of course I am like most of the people on Eka's and am not a furry so maybe I just don't understand, personally for me my little list would be,
male Anthros- 100% unattractive
female Anthros- 100% unattractive
male human- 100% unattractive
female humans- 100% attractive (with exceptions)

what I'm getting at is everyone has their own preferences, but from a fantasy aspect, having a human eating another human is a much more dynamic and unrealistic situation then an animal eating an animal.
