I like to think of fetishes and the media they produce like any other work of fiction really. For example in video games or movies, you might have a theme like science fiction, but just because it’s not real doesn’t mean elements of realism don’t apply to enhance the story or whatever being told (hard vs soft scifi). For some people depicting a fantasy-like environment close to the real world and rather horrifying can be appealing (like horror games in general one might say) whereas others like to idealize what could be and enjoy it more like that.
 
As for something like vore in my case I do like the more scary elements to it likely for similar reasons to games and movies, there’s just some appeal to it in fantasy. No doubt many like it for some more gentle and less harmful reasons as well as you’ve said, that’s just how it goes. Either way the root appeals for liking it is just buried deep within one’s mind in a way I don’t think anyone understands with our current knowledge of the brain, so it’s rather hard to explain that to others and the best I think anyone can do is just equate it to the inexplicable enjoyment of sexual things they can relate to, or something like video games, movies or books as mentioned previously.

No :p

Random thought, there should be a ‘why’ tag, for the usual fetish discussion in comments. lol

@LemonDrop  
Indeed.
 
I am sometimes asked about detishes, this one in particular. I can usually only explain it by a phrase I often repeat: “You have to separate the ideal from the real.” In unbirth I like to imagine a level of closeness and love beyond compare; a womb is the deepest part of a woman’s body, and is that which is directly responsible for creating and nurturing life, and is closely associated with sex. In oral vore I often appreciate the power play and dominance factors of it, though it can also be a huge sign of trust and submission in willing vore. Anal vore is almost a pure humiliation thing, like “all you’re worthy of is going up my butt,” and cock vore… well, varies, but the idea of being completely consumed by someone’s sex and literally bathed in their essence is quite the act of sexual domination.
 
But, of course, you have to separate it fro the realistic consequences of such actions - or rather how very unrealistic they are to begin with. Any form of vore whatsoever would be horrifying beyond compare in real life, naturally, but all those negative elements need not apply in fantasy - it’s possible to focus on just the ideals of closeness or domination or submission or whatnot that appeal to you so.
 
For my own part I hate anything “hard,” and nothing turns me off more than vore featuring blood, cruelty, terror, mutilation, etc.
 
To sum it all up in a much more succinct way? It’s a bit like how you can shoot a guy in a video game watch him just slump over and fade away a few seconds later, whereas doing that in real life would probably result in lots of blood and screaming and begging not to die and being thrown in prison and such. Same act, very very different contexts

If you need to ask then you’ll never truly understand since that’s just how fetishes work.
 
But yeah vore specifically is a very diverse fetish with many intricate tiny things that contribute to any one person’s individual liking to it, that is why there’s so many kinds of it. For example I think I like the powerplay aspect of it the most in more unwilling stuff but others see it as an intimate way to get close to a loved one in the case of more willing things. Of course while you can break it down like that, one may still ask “why is that appealing” and that is where it just turns into “it is” since there is no way to explain it. It’s like asking why you are attracted to ponies or more “normally”, the opposite sex, it just works like that due to how the brain is set up (in the case of fetishes though it’s more of a deviation from the accepted “norm”). I’m sure I could try to explain it all in detail but it’d take like 50 pages of writing and I don’t wanna do that right now :p

@LemonDrop  
I don’t get it, where is the pleasure on this fetish?

Chryssie looks pleased with herself!
