How many of you guys have seen this article floating around?
http://www.businessinsider.com/a-female-shark-ate-a-male-shark-after-a-turf-war-in-an-aquarium-in-seoul-2016-1

Found it, got inspired and decided to do something based on it~ Only instead the outcome is that the male shark eats the female one. Because male preds make everything better. <3

Also real talk - there is a distinct lack of M/F role reversal vore and that saddens me. ;v;
I've been wanting to draw more scenes of overzealous female preds getting eaten by male ones but couldn't find a fitting idea or the commitment to do it- so this article was the perfect stroke of inspiration for me to work with!

Needless to say I had too much fun working on this one - especially taking liberties in coloring these two mers. I decided to make their coloration based off the sand tiger shark (just like in the article!)
The bulges are probably not even close to being accurate, but I can just imagine it's a really tight fit. I3 I also couldn't resist adding a few injury marks in there - either from being grazed by shark teeth or digestion wounds hehe

ENJOYYYY~

Role reversal always amuses me, and his facial expression at the end makes this all the better x3 Great job!

Strangely enough I'm usually not a very big fan of role reversal, mainly because it focuses more on species. (I like my carnivores okayyy? ;v;)

BUT I am willing to make an exception if it's M/F <33

Thanks!

Every water based animal person you draw is such a fucking cutie. Really love the expression.

That, and now i'm totally on board with the overzealous F Pred thing.

Seconded, maybe the male pred already spotted lunch before hand and after eating overzealous female pred, lunch gets promoted to pillow to it confusion.

I like his pouty annoyed face at the end, that made me giggle.

Also, true dat. M/F role reversal is basically nonexistant, which is amazing since it's considered 'default' that females would be predatory, which you'd think would make the majority of male predding reversal stuff...

He may be basically an animal in psuedo-human form, but even he knows when someone's being rude and threatening to eat you. X3

And yeah, most role reversal I've seen is more on the furry side...But since it's more species-focused I tend to not dig it as much. X'3 So something like this is a breath of fresh air!

Posted by Gelus 9 years ago Report

Specie-focused role reversal can be cute, but I find gender-archetype based to be more fun. And, eh even animals can tell when you're being rude to them!

It certainly is a breath of fresh air, but pretty much everything you post is like an island of guy-noms in a sea of femdom x3

Thing is, that F/M in itself is mostly a role reversal to begin with as most characters featured are human or anthro's who are based on humans.

So all this does is, reverse the so prevelant role reversal. Reversalception.

Gelus

Posted by Gelus 8 years ago Report

Given that in human society, there are equal numbers of societies that are matriarchal to patriarchal, I'm going to have to disagree with that.

Women predate just as much as men, they just do so in less force-based fashions, since they have less physically powerful bodies.

[ Reply ]

Marauder

Posted by Marauder 8 years ago Report

Wait what? This comment makes zero sense. Matriarchly societies are a rarity and usually don't last very long unless extremly isolated. Going "they're equal in numbers" is an absurd statement to make.

The only way female predation works is by using state power, which in the vast mayority of cases is once again enforced by males. Where humans are concerned because of sexual dimorphism males simply are the more predatory gender.

So vore at large, mostly due to the extreme prevelance of sub guys is an inversion of the norm.

Yep. May as well. You take on the business of making this stuff though, and I really appreciate it.

With the amount of animosity they spew (and how readily accepted it is), I would be lying if I said that some of these drawings WEREN'T made partially out of spite. ;)
Sure, it's kiiind of petty but IMO, spite can be a powerful tool for inspiration in drawing! It can lead to good results if used thoughtfully.

thevorrdudette

Posted by thevorrdudette 9 years ago Report

Well you know me, I've drawn mermen eating fempreds for a while now XD Obviously I get influenced too(recently I looked through the malepred art of a predominantly fempred artist and my god you should have seen the salt). I don't really see it as a bad thing due to its fundamental dynamics; all these guys asking, insisting, badgering, implying, etc for malepred artists to draw fempred could literally go anywhere else for their fix and yet they feel the need to dominate all the space. I don't feel an ounce of guilt for poking fun at 'em.
I know right? I do love drawings like this and most of the time when you've drawn these scenarios they've kicked ass~

Posted by thevorrdudette 9 years ago Report

Well, no, because like, people in a space that gets shoved out of the spotlight repeatedly, that gets underappreciated, underdrawn and is very few and far in between already aren't in a position of others getting along with them. By default. Fempred only people have every ounce of the space here to thrive, whereas there's a small group which gets tossed aside repeatedly. The idea that WE'RE being unfair is basically misunderstanding the emotions of existing in a dominated space as an "anomaly".

I will reiterate an old point:
"It's more like trying to fit something into a very straight-male dominated space and getting fed up(...hah) with all the giantess, female pred pandering. Ain't about equality right now, we need to even the table before we can even begin to have "equality"."

Shark-girl: "Alright, alright! You can have 51% of the tank space, just spit me back up already!"
Shark-boy: "Hmm... Now that's not a bad arrangement. But if I gulp down the rest of you, I get it all."
Shark-girl: "Please, please, we can work out a deal!"
Shark-boy: "A deal better than enjoying all of the tank and all the food from the handlers?"
Shark-girl: *gasps, weeps* "But... but... I was bigger."

Very creative, Y.C.. Nice twist. And these two are so cute. =)

Male shark: Not so tough now, are you, girl?
Female shark: M-Maybe I got a little carried away back there. But we can work something out, r-right?
Male shark: Hmm... no. Night-night, fin face.

I love seeing not only M/f, but role reversal where the supposedly "weaker" one overpowers the "stronger" one. Shame both are such rarities.
