Why are you into vore? Asked by a non-vorarephiliac

[Naweth]

- Why do you like vore?

I have a pretty intense love for domination. I've always had submissive thoughts, thoroughly enjoy being around bossy or dominant women, and find quite a thrill in being overpowered, outsmarted, taken advantage of, taken control of, etc. Being vulnerable to someone is just...something I love thinking about and doing.

As far as vore goes, being consumed is the ultimate form of domination. I'm submissive, and I prefer being prey in a vorish scenario. Being eaten is a serious way to take advantage of someone. The predator is claiming them as theirs, declaring they are nothing more than food. It's degrading, humiliating, terrifying, and the best thing ever.

Without going into crazy details, some of the elements I like about vore: saliva (the more, the better), being tightly contained in a mouth/throat/belly/vagina/ass, being constricted/restrained by their body, the intense heat of being inside a living creature's body, the smell of the predator's breath and belly (I know it's gross, but I still like it), the sound of sloshing about in their stomach (it's super wet and slimy), the sound of them breathing or moaning or laughing or teasing from all around the prey, struggling but simply not being able to do enough to get out, and slow/painful/graphic digestion (not everyone likes this, but it's my favorite part...the slower and more graphic, the better)

- Do you find it sexually attractive? If so, why?

Yup. It just does in the same way that a straight, vanilla guy just finds women of his particular taste sexually attractive. I've been into vore for as long as I've had sexual thoughts. As in, by the time puberty was a thing, I had already stumbled into this world (currently 26 years old). I can't remember how I got into it, but it's just been a thing that I'm into. I don't get a lot out of normal intimacy. Porn does nothing for me. I've even tried steering clear of vore for a long period of time, thinking a break might build my interest in normal sexuality. Nope.

- For the preys: what size do you like? Tiny? Giant pred? Same size?

I prefer same size or smaller, but not to the point of being tiny. As far as whether I'm smaller than normal or the predator is bigger than normal, both are fun. Being subjected to shrinking, or going up against a large pred (or one capable of growing in size) are both interesting in their own way.

In the end, I like a tight fit. So, I don't want to be an inch tall for a full grown adult predator. More like 1 foot tall or larger. If I'm a normal sized adult, a predator between 8 ft and 30 ft would be fun. Past that, there tends to be too much room in the predator for the 'tight squeeze' that I love so much.

- Have you told anyone?

Yes, and I regret it. Nothing bad ever came of it, but I know it's weird and knowing they know but knowing they're not interested in stuff like that makes me feel a bit embarrassed. I ain't ashamed. Just shy.

- If yes, how did they react? Were you afraid?

I'm terrified of people finding out. I mind my internet history quite well, and keep everything managed in a way where it'd be damn near impossible to figure it out if someone else is using my computer or phone. I wouldn't mind talking about this in person with someone, but I'm definitely just going to wait until I meet and connect with someone who appears receptive enough to hear it. So far, that hasn't happened, and there's no way I'll force it to happen.

- If no, why not? Are you afraid of being rejected?

Rejected, or simply thought to be super weird. I mean, I AM super weird, but I don't want people going around thinking that.

I'm content never telling anyone, but I hope I can find a girl as open as OP's girlfriend to talk to some day. I haven't even found someone I feel comfortable talking about submissive/dominant play with yet. I'm surrounded by a bunch of vanilla people in RL, so I'll just be patience and hang out with folks on this site (and a few others).

My answer might be a little funny... since I actually don't know myself, though I don't care all that much either. My love for vore was a part of me since I was born; I can still vaguely remember watching cartoons on our first color TV back when I was like 3 years old, and going to bed thinking of dragons or other anthros gobbling me up and me spending time in their bellies. It's not something I learned or picked up on from a specific event... I was always like that, baffling as it may sound. It took years before I even realized not everyone was like me in this aspect, or that there even was a term or community or description for it altogether (called vore)!

As for other people knowing, no... no one offline knows. Although I'm a lot better at dealing with hate nowadays, I keep a lot of things about me secret, to avoid the unnecessary risk of being lynched by this society. Funny enough though, I share some SFW soft vore pics on Facebook occasionally... but I try to make them less obvious, whereas friends and family thankfully have no idea what that is and would likely think nothing unusual of it even if they noticed

- Why do you like vore?
Defiantly a matter of dominance. There's just something about being devoured by a strong predator and being their meal. I use to be a passive observer but a few years back I found that I love being the prey.

- Do you find it sexually attractive? If so, why?
Yep. Vore (and pregnant women) are what get me going, it has a ton to do with humiliation and dominance (on the preds part). I still find normal things attractive but I find that I have no sex drive (I have little to no desire to find a GF).

- For the preys: what size do you like? Tiny? Giant pred? Same size?
Same size all the way. Its all about the big belly. Micro/Macro stuff can work as long as there is some type of bump.

- Have you told anyone?
Nope, If I ever get into a relationship I'll eventually tell them but until then I'll keep it to my self.

- If no, why not? Are you afraid of being rejected?
There is a certain fear of rejection I have, I'd have to be pretty comfortable with the person first.

I barely have any idea. All I know is I got hype at seeing Captain Hook almost get eaten multiple times in Peter Pan, and now I'm here.

- Why do you like vore?
Hard to describe - the dominance, definitely - so i vastly prefer human preds, since animal don't eat for pleasure....(I think)
This feeling being helplessly exposed to a her every whims and even if you don't like what's happening, you're not the one to decide.

- Do you find it sexually attractive? If so, why?
Well nowadays i see 2 reasons for it:
1. I was into vore since i can think so, naturally, when I hit puberty that's what my sexuality has used as source of stimulation...
Like a few, I'm not really interested in actual sex(would try it out of curiosity but that's it)
2. I think I have that masochistic side I don't want to admit

- For the preys: what size do you like? Tiny? Giant pred? Same size?
Most preferably shrunken prey, giant preds still work though but same-size is hardly an option.

- Have you told anyone?
I tried one time, not direct, just inducing some facts to see if we're on the same page. But stopped as I noticed he hadn't a clue what I wanted to get at.

- If no, why not? Are you afraid of being rejected?
Well, that's tricky because , you see, in real life, i was always socially unstable leading to the result that I'm a shut-in today and so
there are very few people I talk to and even less I undertake stuff with. Heck, if had a source of money, I'd be a neet too, hardly going outside.
I'm weird enough as a person already and I'm thankful enough they accepted me so yea, it's pretty much the "fear of rejection" part(I can't afford to lose the few friends I have and
most people tend to fear/disgust things they can't understand)

- Why do you like vore?
Well, after all this time I think I'm really more generally into peril (from perspective of outside observer / narrator). Any situation, as long as it is sexual + ominous doom + proper build up + lack of anything that turns me off (too young, certain kinds of gore, dicks, etc) fits. Mummification, vore, object transformation, oviposition, 'human cattle'/milking, etc, can all fit the bill.

Fatal softvore often hits all of those notes, and is less likely to include regular humanoid/humanoid sex (which I'm just not into? I like sensual massage depictions, but not otherwise into reading vanilla smut. *shrug*).

I'm generally not turned on by solo "after pics". Big bellies by themselves don't interest me, for example. Before/After is okay, but I greatly prefer comic formats since what I am really into is the process rather than the end. It's important to have an end, as ominous doom isn't very ominous without the doom, but.. well, having a final "the doom happens!" pick makes an image sequence much hotter, but it isn't going to be the page I spend the most time looking at, if that makes sense.

- Do you find it sexually attractive? If so, why?
See above.

- For the preys: what size do you like? Tiny? Giant pred? Same size?
I don't imagine myself as the predator or the prey. I have preferences for both, however:

First, on predators: I generally prefer inhuman-form predators (monster plants, spiders, machines, etc), or predators that use inhuman means (like a humanoid monster that uses webbing / tentacles / cell tail / etc). They can be mentally human-like or not.

As for prey: Strong-willed, female, attractive (to me, anyway. Everyone has traits they prefer. ). I am fine with them eventually ending up stuffed with eggs or being plumped up or whatever as part of an ominous fate, just not at the start.

- Have you told anyone?
I manage/write a hentai comic steeped in vore and such, so yeah, it has come up.

- If yes, how did they react? Were you afraid?
Reaction:
Father - Wanted to make sure I properly set up this newfangled "patreon" thing for my hobby, helped me set up legal papers / corporate bank account / etc. Otherwise didn't inquire further/care about any of the sexual stuff. Rest of immediate family just knows I run a comic that's like a more serious little shop of horrors or whatever that is sexual and doesn't care?

One friend of mine knows, since I asked him to look over some of the earlier pages to determine what panels to initially color and such. He isn't into it but is happy to help.

- If no, why not? Are you afraid of being rejected?
Oh, sure. I never mentioned anything about it to my GF during the years we dated (broke up over unrelated issues). She'd have probably been fine with it though, knowing her.

Anyway, now that I run Grim Fate Comics I can't not bring it up anymore, which I presume narrows the potential dating pool! I don't care if future SO is into it, but if they assume being into it is a sign you're living hellspawn that's a problem.
