Musings on Vore
12 years ago
So I've written this on my furry blog thingy, but I thought I'd share some miscellaneous thoughts I had on why people like vore so much.
I, personally, find the subject of vore to be fascinating. With a great dislike of saliva, its odd for me to want to be eaten alive, and that is as it should be. No one should ever WANT to be eaten, so why does it have an erotic charge to it?
I thought of maybe three reasons why one might be attracted to the idea of being eaten: Freudian theories, self-esteem issues, and maybe a drop to the head as an infant.
The latter being a joke of course ;P
Freudian theories suggest that we tend to like things sexually based on our mothers or things that have happened to us with a great deal of stress. Being born is similar to being swallowed in that you are being pushed along a canal that is tight, warm, moist, and a great deal of stress is on your body. Leaving that warm, comfortable place where you developed is a running theme on why people have the fetishes and likes that they do, and perhaps vore is kind of a reeeeaaaalllly round-about way of this psychoses. But I think we can all agree that, though it sounds logical, it may be a stretch. Maybe. I can't explain the appeal I see in it, so it could very well be sub-conscious.
Perhaps the individual feels unwanted, unworthy, or has other self-esteem issues. Being eaten provides a feeling of being wanted, being needed, and becoming one with something else, which is a legitimate thing to crave. How it manifests itself through vore... no clue. The only corollary I can think of is comfort food. You eat when you feel sad or emotional, and it makes you feel good. like, turkey-dinner good. like, IDONTWANNAWAKEUP good. Maybe knowing you would be appreciated and loved as much as we humans love our food is what makes us feel so utterly desired when being swallowed, or even when the one eating the other vores. they may want to feel good, or might have a thing about being dominant.
To eat someone whole or with gore is a very dominant thing to do, right up there with vore. you take not only their life, but their free will in doing so. This can be very empowering for un-sure individuals or those of an Alpha personality type. The flip side is also true. Some people, as made VERY apparent in the BDSM community, need to be dominated and controlled. I think the stress of having to make decisions and worrying is lost then, enabling the joy of being so submissive.
So many more thoughts on this run through my mind, what do you all think? Any other topics for me to muse on? I kind of like thinking out loud about these things :) its like a puzzle with no answer; you know there isn't an end, but you cant put it down.
