Well for me, my biggest kinks all involve big bellies for much the same reason as yours. Inflation, unbirth, stuffing, vore, pregnancy...it all ends up in big bellies and I love the idea of feeling full and taught with sloshing or squirming inside your body. ^^

Size difference with male bigger than female (NOT crazy big or hyperinflation stuff)... Size difference works especially well with human and anthro couples. Something about the rawness of an animal but in an athro form having his way with a human woman clicks with me (BUT there must be passion and a backstory for this type of coupling to work, IMO). Also, for the human women in these couples, I prefer them to be voluptuous -- not stick figures.

For more clear cut fetishes, I sometimes do give in to the milking/lactation/suckling fetish and the cum inflation fetish. I think the reasons for liking those things are a little more... obvious. ;)

Your first description is exactly what I'm talking about. I've known people (myself included) to have really specific niches in a fetish. That is definitely size difference, but clearly not just anything involving size difference does it for you. I like it!

For the body fluid kinks, I can see why people like those and have read testimonies, but can't personally relate!

hypertrophy is about finding erogenous zones attractive, and that MORE is better.
Most fetishes exist simply because they're enjoyable. it's that simple.

here's my F list
http://www.f-list.net/c/kharnak
i'm pretty ecclectic.
I like big hairy brutish looking guys. usually buff muscle types, but i also like skinny girly twinky types crossdressing.
Feet & paws. one of my tops. they look and feel so awesome, and smell so awesome, and feels good to rub your dangly parts into them.

I know kinks exist because people like them, but people like them for different reasons and different things they tap into. That's what I'm asking about, if people have thoughts about why they're into different things. "I just am," is a fine answer, but not what I'm interested in knowing.

There are many concepts that hyper can feed into. I personally don't care much for male genitals IRL, or even art/porn of them at more normal size, but I like the concepts I explained above. A social bragging right sort of thing. I find female genitals very attractive, but I'm not into hyper vulva. Big vulva aren't a symbol of power or status like big dicks, or even big breasts.

hyperVulva is awesome, in fact i'm trying to explore the idea of Cruxes having prehensile ovipositers! that can jerk you off! :D

To me, feet are objects of power, like tools, they are a means of domination, and a way to impose themselves unto their environment. often by their size or sheer smell. whether others like it or not.
Like i know Timoitekarosine actually likes the fact that others dislike the smell.
i prefer it that the others like it.
Another kitty buddy Omni likes it in a covert way, where he only appears to not like it. so it's interesting how there are 3 ways to like the same thing.
All in all i'm quite the Olfactophile actually, as many seem to be coming out about these days. For me, especially with feral scents and other body scents, and especially the mutual enjoyment of them. It's one of my biggest things, where if it's shared, it's one of the deepest and sincerest forms of intimacy.

Because they're enjoyable? S&M, whipping, bondage, biting, bloodplay, guro, vore, humiliation, large insertions... There's lots of kinks that aren't inherently enjoyable unless you have the psych to go along with it. In fact, feet are one of them, as are specific body types.

nah, blood is fun, whipping tickles. humiliation gets my heart pounding oh so nicely, and it feels quite awesome when i fist myself. doesn't hurt really.
often times, the fact that something is seen as wrong, perverted, or disgusting is part of the thrill. like ooooh, yeah that's right i'm actually doing it, and liking it ;J i think it's also a guy thing, to challenge oneself, and each other in sexual feats. like who can take the largest dildo, etc. who has a more extensive leather collection.

All's I was saying is that not all kinks are inherently, without any mental addition, pleasurable.

Definitely transformation for me, though I like inflation and to a lesser degree fat and size play.

I think the reasoning would something to do with the change. Becoming something else, it's not really a power thing, at least not power against others. The whole growing a tail and muzzle are big things for me.

I often hear transformation kinks explained as a loss of control too, as in the subject has no choice but to becomes something else. From your description, I don't think this aspect applies to you. Am I wrong?

Not really no. I don't think about controlling the change in any way, though usually it is something beyond the subjects control. For me it's all about the physical change itself. Loss of control may subconsciously be there, in fact it probably is, but it's not the cognitive part for me.

My top 2 have to be herms and pregnancy.
Herms because they have the best of both worlds, and while I'm currently a male, so only understand the male portion of sexual pleasure, I do hope to one day make the change and experience the other side of it (Though that's not the reason I'm making the change).
Pregnancy, well, because it's my deepest wish to one day experience it. Just the thought of carrying another's life within me gives a nice, warm feeling.

I like herms too for the gender transgression aspect!

I'm a fan of understated Masculine herms.
Same reason I like it that a lot of my straight/normal/whatever Male friends and co-workers have no idea I'm a practicing bisexual perv. >:D That, and I like the idea of being both, not having to choose, but choosing anyways.

http://www.f-list.net/c/Luca%20Shoal/ my F-list is far far easier than writing a list.

As for why I like things...especially the weirder ones like the ageplay, cub, diapers trifecta... I just do~

I cannot pick just one as my favorite. I like large breasts and sacks very much (without them being TOO big). Something nice and warm to snuggle into and cup fully in your hands, rub into and feel the warmth and weight of.

Lactation is a big one for me as well. I enjoy the closeness and warmth, and the thought of nourishing someone you love with your affections, sexually or non.

And of course, oral sex, which ties into the other fetishes quite well.

Herms growing larger, and perhaps gaining additional limbs or sets of genitalia :D

Hyper, herms, taurs, multi, and modularity
The only reason I can put forth is that I'm a fucking weirdo xD

More/Variety is better. That's what it seems to boil down to.

Perhaps that's it! Makes sense to me :3

x: What do you mean by modularity?

You probably don't want to know; lots of people find it disturbing x:

I am not the most normal of persons. I've never heard of that kink before, so tell me.

Well the basic point is the ability to remove body parts without harm and have them act as though they're still attached.

Whoahh, that IS an odd one! :u Interesting. Adding that one to the knowledge banks.

Its one of my favorites :3
Possibly my absolute favorite!
I have some examples if you want to see~ :3

It doesn't sound like my sort of thing and I didn't expect it to be, but it's always interesting to hear something new. Thank you for the offer anyway. <3

Haha, alright ^^

Well Domination and submission of course but thats a every day kink here on FA...


So Castration... having one's reproductive power... ones potency stolen or forcefully taken... Or even better to be Dominated into willingly giving it up for an-others pleasure or desire... is highly exciting


Penectomy... is of course the most powerful form of chastity for a male... once again all about sexual power and dominance having and giving it up or having it taken... And of course there is the scare factor involved that many find exciting...

Well, I'll name a few.

Futanari: You get the straight porn minus the male. Two women for the price of one and its still mess. BRILLIANT!

Birthing/Egglaying: something about passing out a life seems hot. I guess because its the creation process.

Loli/Shota/Toddlercon/Cub/Babyfur: Yeah, the "forbidden" content no longer allowed on the site. I'll keep this brief. Life as an adult is a trial and really stressful. This brings me back thoughts of what about the kinky fun of adulthood minus all the complexities and stress. I know its not a bunch of people's cup of tea, I know it has a HIGHLY negative connotation with it (being illegal in certain parts of the world), I could see why it would freak people out. If the person I ask doesn't like it, I never bring it up again. Simple as that.

But... You've said two things that do not mix. You want the sexual aspects of being an adult with the simplicity of a child. Yet, sexual politics and the even more thorny interpersonal politics are two of the most insanely complicated features of adult life. All you're doing is making an inexperienced child go through actions so complicated that books are written about them and movies show off the complicated nature to critical acclaim.

I didn't say it made perfect sense, but thanks for not blowing up on me.

Futa/herm-on-male. Why is pretty simple, at least on a basic level; I love just about everything about women, minus the vag. Guys, sort of meh about, not including the cock! Best of both worlds, for me. Why I feel THAT way, well, you'd have to ask Freud probably, and even then I wouldn't take that guy's word for it. :b

From a more fetishy standpoint (the above is almost sexuality I guess), definitely stomach bulging. Not sure on the exact why. Perhaps it's the obscenity, perhaps it's how dangerous it looks (the threat, not explicitly the action, of harm is another big kink of mine), or maybe I just really liked the Alien trilogy.

Multi-boobs and bits, two heads... and the boobs and bits a nice, big, fun size.

I've had my brushes with some of the super strange stuff (sounding, cbt, inflation, various vores), but for me the lasting one is bondage, not the violence that unfortunately nearly always accompanies it, but just some loving smexings with one party tied firmly in place. I'm always the sub role, for me the loss of control is super appealing, knowing no matter how much you struggle you can't change the end result, it's all in her (or hir, or his) power, you're just being used. Maybe that's why I went from straight to hyper-bi anything goes, this particular fetish isn't by definition limited to any one gender. Sort of ties into cub as well, I wandered over to IB to keep up with some of the cub artists, but whenever I indulge a cub fantasy I'm always the cub...

Side note: got on a castration kick for awhile, all well and good in fantasy world, but then stumbled on some actual castration stuff that makes the BME vid look like Bambi, killed it for me, interesting how knowing it's fake (read, "the furry world") enables one to find something that would be otherwise horrifying somehow mentally palatable, but once one runs face to face with the reality of it, NOT sexy, like finding the one real attempt at unbirthing... I've been indulging gay fantasies for years, finally bought a toy to see if I could be gay in real life, thus far the answer is a resounding NO. If furries ever become adequately tolerable to the mainstream, this would be an excellent research topic.

Bondage, sizeplay, pawplay, chastity, watersports... there's probably dozen more. :I

Well, I know what I like, but I can only hazard guesses as to why. I've never really sat down and just wondered "Why do I like what I like?" It's like... food. Worchestershire sauce for example. Love it. Never looked at ingredients or anything. (Only recently found out it was made with rotting sardines. 8D Yum yum, yeah?) But for the sake of curiousity/science, I've attempted to come up with a reason.

I like pegging and crossdressing considerably, and as an offshoot of that herm/shemale/etc-on-male.
Reasoning why is because I like role reversal as far as I can tell... I like to see a pretty/cute feminine boy, as well as a guy getting bent over by his girl.

Pregnancy has been a favorite of mine the past few years. I don't like the birthing or unbirthing aspects of it, nor do I like hyper pregnancy, but it's more of like sharing love with two people. Plus, pregnant furries or normal women seem to have a glow to them that can't be explained.

I also happen to like big boob, butts, balls (I swing both ways), and futanari, cause girls with an extra package are always hot.

I can think of four I do or attempt in RPs with some regularity, which I can also give a good guess on. Pregnancy/impregnation, minor breast torment, cuckold, interracial/intercultural relations.

Pregnancy is about potency. Fertility. A show of traditional masculine fecundity, or feminine capacity. It's bragging rights on the male side, and evidence of activity with a warm feeling of new life on the female side.

The breast thing is an exceptionally niche piece of BDSM. I have exacting tastes and requirements. Impacts with broad, flat objects at medium speeds (hands, paddles, wide belts, rubber balls like basketballs or soccer balls) to avoid welts; no breaking skin; pulling, with hands or by ropes (thick-rope suspension, for instance); compressing between hands, or flat plates from above and below to flatten them out, or placing them on a chair to be sat upon like cushions. Mostly it's the look of it. The wobble, the stretch, the squish, flesh moving around.

Cuckold goes back to raw power. Superiority and dominance. The legal and traditional head has failed and is usurped by the mightier and better man. And since I'm a poodle it's also a reversal. Poodle men are thought of as weak, persnickety and twinkish losers. But I prefer to rubbish that notion.

The last is about exoticism. No sugarcoating or flashy descriptors. Alien, foreign or just uncommon cultures are exciting and fascinating. Hitting a cultural cross-purpose, not knowing the proper way to be, blundering along anyhow, all good. This can add spice to an already loved species. Ewe: Good. Hillbilly ewe: better. Hyena gal: good. Urban hyena gal: better. There are also sartorial considerations, as I very much enjoy trappings, clothing and such, as well as speech patterns whether accents, dialect or just a different language altogether.

Bonus one: Talking canine quadropeds. I like canines but reason demands they be able to articulate their needsand wants. My Little Pony ponies are a recent addition to expand this. They can talk and reason, and have attractive forms.

Hyper/size growth. Just the stretching and the nrrrg and uuuugh and clothes ripping... @u@

First, let me say that I can wholly appreciate your view on the hyper fetish. A lot of my interest in hyper is mostly symbolic. Huge sexual bits are, for me, a way of symbolically describing a being who has extreme sexual potency and physical desirability. It's a parallel to the idea of drawing a character with an oversized brain to convey the fact that they are a super-intelligent genius. Physically speaking, it doesn't actually work that way. Symbolically, though, most folks get the message.

Now for my own fetishes ...

I like transformations that offer a sense of empowerment. This can be kinky or not, really. Something as simple as a being sprouting large, feathery wings and gaining the ability to fly fills me with a sense of wonder and longing, but not necessarily sexual desire. On the other hand, the thought of a young and plain looking human woman mysteriously changing into a large, strong, hyper-endowed hermaphrodite wolftaur body ... that's the sort of empowerment I find wonderfully arousing, both in the act of changing and the final result.

Another kink I've been gravitating toward a lot recently is the notion of empathic sex, of the two-way sharing of sensation and pleasure with one's partner. Touching and being touched are both sensual acts by themselves. With an empathic connection, the act of touching pleases you AND you also feel your partner's pleasure at being touched. What better way to find out exactly what your partner enjoys most? I think the appeal here is in the sharing of intimacy, the closeness and trust, the ability to experience sex from the other gender's perspective (even if indirectly), and finally becoming simply overwhelmed from experiencing all the pleasure felt by not just one but TWO bodies!

My final and strongest kink seems to combine (no pun intended) aspects of the first two kinks: merging. Merging brings two beings as close as is arguably possible, and is the most potent form of intimate sharing I can imagine in that you must bare every part of yourself - body, mind, and soul - to your partner, and they to you. Often the theme of merging involves some semblance of empowerment, too, as the merged form often contains the best attributes of both partners.

I am a hyper fan, but I find there is a terrible lacking of sophisticated hyper art and stories out there. Bu sophisticated I don't mean characters should be speaking in sonnets while wearing tophats and monocles, but hyper art that's more than just "LOL mah beeg dik! :D" is frustratingly rare to find, and stories that are more than just "character grows a ridiculous set of genitals, goes oh gawd, cums everywhere, murr murr smecksy" are vanishingly rare.

The kind of hyper I love to see is more along the style of Norithic's and Milkjunkie's art style, where hyper is not excessive (as in Drash's universe-penetrating schlong), and carries a real disadvantage to the character. You can make the perfect Mary Sue character being a sexual god/goddess/(whatever word it is for a herm god/goddess), but that character will ultimately be very shallow. What I like best are hyper characters who deal with their troubles caused by their excessive genitalia, not only in sexual interactions with others, but also in every day situations. How do you take a piss at a urinal when your dick is longer than your arm? How can you drive if your balls squeeze painfully against the driving wheel? It's all the little details that to me show exactly how much thought the author/artist has put into their creation. Poor details = poorly thought out = either lazy or not caring or not interested in anything deeper than shallow smut.

So while I like realism in my fantasy (if such a thing doesn't create a paradox :p ) I also like cum inflation, which I know to be impossible and probably deadly if tried. Of course, not inflation into blimp-esque proportions, but definitely swelling, up to and beyond pregnancy size, but not much further. Semen coming out the orifice situated opposite of where the spunk is being inserted is also a nice touch, it at least means an artist has a (very basic) understanding of internal anatomy :p

I also happen to like breasts (of course :p), and especially breast expansion. However, I draw the line at a realistically unrealistic size (again :p ) at no bigger than twice the person's head. Beyond that it starts looking either grotesque or just not possible at all.

And again, to reinforce my (already belaboured point), to me it's not so much size as how the character deals with his size, and how others interact differently due to his/her size, whether bewbs or bawls. I also happen to prefer they stay on separate characters, as herms are too close to a Mary Sue of sexuality to me.

Unless of course, the target is a male unwillingly developing breasts (creates very interesting and erotic situations) or a male with a vagina (again, a lot of possibilities there).

Sadly, all of this takes time and effort from the part of the creator, and it's a rather small and specific niche, so I doubt these conditions will ever be met successfully and consistently for me.

To all those who wish the same however, I absolutely recommend  DissidentLove! He is a fantastic writer, who creates terribly believable characters, and places them in erotically unlikely situations :p

I'll give out three really quickly.
Herms/she-males - In many ways this can comprise the best of both worlds; while I love the female form, I understand the penis. I can only guess or imagine what a woman fells during sex, but with a she-male or herm (focusing on the penis) I have a better idea and can be more empathic to the situation.

Latex - This is mostly a texture type fetish. Like silk panties or satin pantyhose, latex has a very distinct look and feel to it; the smooth slickness and tightness. I find these both to be very visually pleasing. Mix that up with latex corruption, and you've got a winning kink.

Hypnosis/Corruption - This appeals to me on a different level of submissive bondage. The idea of having such a strong control over another person can play to the whole power trip fetish, and likewise giving yourself over to another person that they have complete control over you is the ultimate type of submissiveness.

Sorry I didn't go into more detail. ^_^;

i'm down with the multiplicity: limbs/heads/and of course private parts. my reasoning makes perfect sense in my head but when i try to put it into words it comes out as a mess of verbiage. it has something to do with sensory overload, both for the subject and in a, uh, visual sense, for the viewer. if i try elucidating beyond that i tend to go blah blah blah blah buh oh look there i go

Pregnancy, Oviposition, Inflation, Feeding and Forced feeding, Transformation... anything taht makes a big or huge belly, although not really vore.

Cause bellies are awesome.

Growth/transformation, especially when it gets out of control. Cocks that grow into sentient serpents with minds of their own. Maybe a little bit of cock vore.
