A dumb journal about personal tastes in lewd art.
9 months ago
General
So to start with, a warning, there will be certain "adult" topics discussed in this journal. Nothing majorly explicit but just giving warning ahead of time.
So as I have drawn and looked up lewd art work I can tell my tastes have changed. Some tastes however are constant in regards to things I like and dislike.
[Hyper]
Obviously I enjoy hyper. Cocks, balls, bulges, muscles, breasts, butts and some various other large things in relation to the aforementioned parts being large.
Interestingly what I favor most is basic pinups without a lot going on. Just a solo character, big parts, possibly even clothed.
That said I have nothing against nudity. However I do not like vaginas or buttholes. Even a cameltoe for female characters is not appealing to me. And in regards to buttholes, ESPECIALLY the big donut kind, they are very unappealing to me.
[Cocks and balls]
In regards to the shape of the cock, simply put I have come to prefer the standard human like cock. It's basic yeah, but ehh it works for me.
One thing with cocks that I do not care for is foreskin. Be it a normal amount or excessive it simply is not appealing to me. I prefer when the cocktip/glans are fully visible and not covered by foreskin.
A recent trend that has been going around with several artists who draw males (and herms) is that flap of skin between the balls. Regardless of if the character is having an orgasm or not I do NOT find this appealing in any way whatsoever.
[Breasts]
Lactation is something that basically has to cross a line of becoming so extreme that is barely seems like lactation, like basically a fire hydrant like spray. The "sweating" milk look is simply not appealing nor is the gentle spray, gush or leak or any outside of the aforementioned hydrant like spray. But even still lactation isn't that appealing to me and I would prefer without.
I am not particularly fond of breasts that are too saggy. A little bit of natural sag is okay, but not too much. As for fake breasts, I don't really mind the perfectly spherical breasts so long as everything else about the image is appealing to me.
[Sex]
I don't have an aversion to characters having sex, but I have certain standards with it.
I do not like rape and definitely prefer consensual enjoyment between both characters. By saying both that also means that I prefer just two characters and not any more than that.
Facial expressions are a weird thing as I am not particularly fond of the "O-face" "ahegao face" or whatever you want to call it. Does that make it seem like the characters aren't REALLY into the sex then? Possibly so, but a facial expression does not need to be over the top to show pleasure.
One weird thing I don't like is the idea of public sex, because it comes with the caveat of lacking self control. This includes glory holes, don't like them.
Self control is a VERY weird thing with me. I am not particularly fond of characters who simply cannot control themselves. Be it in regards to having sex or leaking bodily fluids like cum and/or milk. For some strange reason I don't like pictures of say a male character who is constantly leaking precum/cum at any given time. This I think also goes back to a preference for simple pinup styled images.
In regards to animations related to characters having sex I cannot stand fast movements. I definitely prefer slow and more passionate movements.
[Macro]
Macro is a weird thing with me. I am not that fond of it, but if it fits the "pinup" style mentioned previously I am okay with it. After all you can browse my favorites and see that I DO have some macro images favorited here and there.
All that said I do not like destruction. Now I understand an artist like DNA-Palmhead does macro and destruction in a way that no characters in the comics/images are harmed and I appreciate that. Same for the user Togepi1125, he has a journal talking about the same kind of thing where destruction happens however there is no harm or death. Be that as it may macro simply isn't that appealing to me outside of some VERY specific instances.
[Strong dislikes.]
This brings me to one of my BIGGEST dislikes in terms of lewd art, harm and death.
Be it any of the following:
1: Macro character stomping all around a city and you see a visual depictions of crushed people on their feet.
2: Macro or astronomically hyper character penetrating a planet resulting in implied death and destruction.
3: Macro or astronomicall hyper character growing through the cosmos and the image has a visible death count on display.
4: Hard vore.
Vore is also something I have a strong dislike of. Now I will say I can differentiate between soft and hard vore. Soft vore I just don't like even if the character being consumed is 100% safe and unharmed. But hard vore is going back to death being caused which is a hard no to me.
An offshoot of this is gore. I DO have a gore image deep in my gallery, so too do I have some gore favorited. HOWEVER the images involving gore are not lewd and are more so done in a way where I can appreciate the artistry that went into it. I understand what I just said can be used against me, and one could say those other subject matters can have "artistry" to them as well. Be that as it may, even if it's well drawn, I do not like seeing a macro character lifting their foot and seeing blood splatters on their soles no matter how well it is done. There is a difference in what the two pieces are trying to convey.
[Closing]
Obviously talking about all this stuff does nothing aside from telling people about my preferences. It's not like I am saying for people to change their ways, it's just me wanting to speak my mind as this journal HAS been on my mind for a bit so I figured I would type it up.

FA+

most likely yes
Like as an example I like the plugsuits from Neon Genesis Evangelion.
I have thought about drawing my lady Ophira in a skin tight suit that is similar to them.
The macro and death stuff, I'm one of the odd folks who can get behind that. Mostly because I find happy ends to be difficult to write about...and it tends to be a good vent subject for me.
After all, the backstory for my character Ophira has death in it.
Not much to say as a comment since tastes are what they are. I agree with the macro thing, and it's why I generally prefer micro over it. You tend to get a lot of the same camera angles, but without having to stretch suspension of disbelief as far to avoid destroying everybody's lives (either directly or indirectly).
