An educational post about something I feel strongly about because I'm a furry wackadoodle and I believe it is only appropriate to explain how I got there especially since there is a huge misunderstanding among normies that they have about this whole thing. They believe I am this way and others are that way because we've been groomed by other freaks or we've been exposed to porn at a young age, but no absolutely not.

For those who don't know I have a myriad of fetishes ranging from fairly vanilla (butts and boobs) to the more out there and taboo (scat, omorashi, watersports and abdl) and some so obscure only a few or no artist at all draw it (vacuum vore and raining) and those who know me or hang around me know I am hella strange, hella queer and hella furry.

I will sort this stuff chronogically!

My first fetish

When I was still a kid at around let's say pre-pubescent age. I had those strange fantasies in the car going back from school that I didn't understand, but just helped me pass the time. It was usually a blank bright room and me shitting uncontrollably in the middle and sometimes runnig around or sitting down while doing so. Sometimes the room would already be loaded with shit up to my ankles that I had to trudge through. Sometimes I would daydream of being in some weird murky pipe that I didn't even know what it was made from, maybe it was made of guts, maybe it was made of poop? It would act like a waterslide as my feet were embedded into the material and slide across the whole length of it at speeds reaching like 40~50 k/h, in my head I imagined it would have felt soft on my feet, not a single hint of friction. Even though I didn't have a foot fetish back then, I guess that were early warning signs for it? Later, I even imagined myself in a suit (more of an armor than a suit) filled to the brim with poop, from head to toe so that I would feel it on every inch of my skin. Rarely, instead of an armor it was a translucent balloon-like suit, but it was more often coupled with water than shit. Anyway I'm getting sidetracked, but you get the point.

I have one of the most taboo fetishes ever in the whole world, way before I even set foot on the internet, but without the internet I reckon it might've not developed further maybe? That didn't stop at daydreaming either.

Most of my wet dreams ever almost always went this way: I am 'somewhere', the location is usually not the same per dream, then I get the need to take a piss and a shit, but the need for the shit felt often far stronger than the need to piss. I would try to look for toilets, but it would often take a while. Several times, but not always I would take too long and shit myself, but it wasn't just a simple pants-shitting it was my body weight's worth of excrements like something the typical "hyper scat" artist would draw and it would weight me down as I continued to frantically look for toilets. One time it was way different, I was outside in a forested area, completely naked, I asked someone and my mom where were my clothes and they just giggled about it and nonchalantly said something but idk I obviously can't remember every detail of dreams this old, but I think they told me to go to the toilets because soon after I got hit with a sudden urge as usual and I ran to what I can assume was either a portable wc box or an outdoor toilet, it was made of wood, as soon as I get in and start pissing, guess what happens next!

I even recognized this pattern a few times when I was lucid enough to forcibly wake myself up, remove my pyjama and let it go without making a mess, but more often than not it would end into my pyjama that I would need to change, this was annoying as hell and I hated it. This would continue for like 5 years. Thankfully it finally stopped for good when I started masturbating and coincidentally it was when I had my first wet dream that was in any major way different. I was with some guy I didn't know on a beach watching the stars and he gave me a handjob. Even if I wanted to stop him, my left arm over his shulders couldn't move, I was frozen in place. This would be my very last wet dream ever.

So yeah I have a scat and urination fetish and I was WAY younger, so young I lived with my parents and I wasn't allowed to go onto the internet, but that was years ago when an internet connection was costly and the computers still ran things like windows 95, windows xp, windows vista at the latest. I even remember playing on a windows xp.

My second fetish

I developed what I'd like to call a "stuck fetish". Something that is decently popular on deviantart, where a character walks on a glue-like substance and gets stuck in place. Deviantart is not where I got this fetish from however, I got it from reading a comic book for kids that I'll leave unnamed where something just like that happened to the protagonist, he killed many monsters with some liquifying gun and he was in the middle of the carnage left by the ray gun, standing on top of the monster goop. On the next panel right after he realizes he was stuck in place, he got himself covered from head to toe in the substance by struggling to break free. I remember I wanted to touch it, feel how that felt. Another comic book series gave me a similar idea of the same fetish where a similar scenario happened, but the glue was snail slime instead, when the character got stuck, he got "run over" by a massive snail a few panels later and he was completely covered in it.

What did not help was that the looney tunes did a lot of that too, often with glue, tar or liquid concrete (whatever it was actually called). For example, there was one with Wile Coyote where he set up a glue-based trap for the roadrunner and he accidentally ensnared himself in it. I don't remember what it was, if it was totally spies, scooby-doo or another cartoon, but there was one scene I recall where a large group of characters (at least 4 or 5) got glued together with a massive piece of pink chewing gum by the episode's baddie. This is another one of those moments that made me go "oh yeah it would be so much fun!" internally, but obviously I knew it was a wrong thought to have as a kid.

When I was much older, there was that one scene from the incredibles. Yes you know the one, yes you are thinking right, it's the bridge where mr incredible got shot at by those weird sticky black bubble guns. Yes you know exactly how I felt about this scene and how much I wanted it to happen to me if you've paid attention. I've since found at least 3 other people who felt the same way I did.

The most recent thing related to this fetish I've had is from the ice age 3 where the squirrel falls into petroleum and gets trapped into a bubble with the acorn being in another oil bubble floating right next to him, teasing him. That scene kickstarted my bubble fetish, but what's more important is what happens after, the squirrel gets stuck on a tree trunk because petrol is sticky. I quickly began as a kid to genuinely want to bathe in oil, that happened even before the ice age 3 came out, but this want got amplified by it. I'm not sure it would be healthy now that I have the insights an adult would have about things like that, so a substitute I've considered is following one of those slime tutorials on youtube and bathe in the mixture I've home-made. An intrusive thought, I wonder if I'll cum instantly from the feeling alone of the sticky substance on my skin, eh probably not.

My third fetish

I was watching a lot of cartoons and animated tv stuff like any other kids and someday I saw a human character getting transformed into an animal. Like always I just felt weird. I didn't understand it, but deep inside me there was this want, this want for that to happen to me in real life, nonsexually because I was too young to understand this stuff, but yeah I wanted to be turned into a talking animal. Looking back, this felt more like a fixation than a fetish for the most part because I just hated being a person, having responsibilities, being expected to stay at a specific social standard. There are some genuine (albeit a few) perks from being an animal.

You know how in the teen titans they have one of their friends who can just transform into any animal he wants? Well, he is not what contributed to this fetish believe it or not because what I find hot about transformation as an adult is that it's unvoluntary, so it's relevant to mention that there was an episode where the whole squad got turned into anthro animals, except beast boy who got turned into an appliance instead by an evil supervillain magician. Cyborg was even given a tutu which probably contributed to a sissification fetish before I discovered the internet and then you add to it the fact he couldn't remove it because each time he tried another one would pop in its place. Pretty toony stuff all things considered. This ordeal looked pretty humiliating for the dude.

I remember having watched an episode of pokemon where ash got turned into a pikachu and another where another character got turned into a lickylicky and at the time I thought being a pokemon would be so cool, like again I didn't know back then that what I had was a sexual fetish, to me that just felt like something that would be more enjoyable than real life. It's funny too because every degen who liked pokemon mystery dungeon always cited being a pokemon as part of the appeal, not even the core gameplay mechanics, no just being a pokemon instead of a trainer was something they all loved and wanted. I would later learn as an adult that pokemon was way lewder than I first imagined. There are a few more times where the characters get transformed for example a gym leader literally turns all of ash's friends into immobile dolls once. It's not gotten any better with the pokemon designs getting increasingly titillating after each generation, don't get me started on Salazzle: it is furry bait, end of the debate, peridot.

Disney is not innocent in this either, I don't remember the name of the movie, but they made an animated movie with a young king Arthur who was tutored by a wizard called Merlin. First let's not talk about that one scene where things turn to life and start cleaning everything up with soap, water and all, they did it too in Fantasia and both times it made me feel weird, and that must have unlocked a fetish for me, but I can't pinpoint a name for it and I don't know any artist who draws this sort of stuff anyway. Back to Arthur, on multiple occasions through the movie, Merlin turns himself and/or Arthur into different animals. It happens at least 3 times and like everything else it was another one of those "oh I wish this movie was real and that happened to me" kind of deal.

My fourth fetish

Well, I'm into bondage. If you couldn't tell, I watched pokemon a lot when I was a kid, there was another scene where the gang got captured by a small spinarak and a swampert. The spinarak then proceeded to tie them to the ceiling, there was a visual gag in that episode where they became a living newton's cradle as they started to argue with each other. In Pokemon Mystery Dungeon, it's worth noting that the protagonists get tied to a pillar via a rope. I'm not sure that scene specifically contributed to my fetish.

I don't remember the name of the cartoon, but there was one episode where the main character I think gets tangled in a lot of vines to the point of immobility. I might be thinking of Tarzan, but I'm not sure, I think it was an episodic cartoon on tv. Speaking of, I'm pretty sure it and that Tom & Jerry movie gave me a quicksand fetish.

Totally Spies had several more bondage scenes interspersed throughout each season that made me feel strange during my childhood. They got pretty creative with it. There was one where they were coated in something transparent, I don't remember what it was, but it must have had something to do with my liking for all things that are shiny and squeaky like vacbeds for example.

My memory's too foggy to remember any specifics, but there were many more cartoons where somebody got kidnapped and held hostage throughout the years. Some involved ropes, a classic, others involved getting captured by a spider and tied to a web. Definite contributors to my liking to bondage and bdsm at large!

My fifth fetish

I don't remember where that came from, but I think just the idea of groping slimes aroused me. Nothing on tv or the internet or books or anywhere for that matter made slimes seem sexy, but I still wanted to touch them with a bare hand, cuddle with them, being covered by them.

Fast forward to 2010, Minecraft got released. At the peak of its popularity in 2012 I remember I wanted to make an extremely weird animation, but was actually worried and ashamed of it back then it was a weird idea and would've been seen as "cringe". I didn't exactly understand why I felt that way about it, but I felt wrong showing this to random people on youtube. The premise was simple, steve gets harassed by a group of minecraft slimes who fell in love with him, I had the full animation very well detailed in my head, including a scene where he takes a shower, but the slimes clog up the plumbing and come raining down on him while he didn't expect it. There's a lot of body sullying, a related fetish I have with mud etc.

So, I've mentioned Minecraft, now let's talk about THE FUCKING RIP-OFF OF FUCKING MINECRAFT! (It's a reference to a youtube troll from 2014) Terraria most likely made the situation worse with its own collection of bouncy and colorful slimes, but one of them in particular stayed in my head rent-free for years: It's the slime king miniboss!

This one enemy was so special to me because it was a slime with a ninja inside of it perfectly preserved. When you defeat it, you get the Ninja armor from the boss. If anything could have made this fetish more prevalent in my mind, it would definitely be Terraria.

Etc

It would take forever to list why I developped every fetish I have, so this is the teal deer of the remaining fetishes I can think of.

It was brought up a few times on this blog, but I had a quicksand, mud and sullying fetish that kind of blend together. I like the idea of sinking into quicksand just to be covered in it, but for no other reason. I dunno how other folks got that fetish for, if the danger and thrill of it is why they're into it? I'm still scared of doing it irl because Im worried I get seen and get called a pig or something for bathing in it, plus as a kid when I wasnt so open-minded abour myself I knew this was wrong and tried to shelve those nasty thoughts away, but it never worked.

I would develop a fetish for getting coiled, you know like how constrictors do it irl. It looks comfortable in a weird kind of way, but of course real constrictors will literally crush your bones. Most folks blame jungle's book for most of their snake-related fetishes like hypnosis and again coiling, but that's not where it came from for me. I don't remember the name of the animation, but that's the one where the character getting coiled was a woman and that must have messed something in my brain when I saw it. I believe it was made by warner bros, but I could be wrong. Hypnosis would come way later though.

I got what I call a rain fetish from watching the pink panther. The premise of this fetish was simple, rain clouds harass a very specific character and only that character and follows them whereever they go. That's where the appeal of the fetish comes from for me.

I also had a weird fascination for bellies and tummies even before the internet and toons with pear-shaped bodies were always cute, goofy and now sexy I guess.

The idea of being licked by a giant tongue or a long tongue and being covered in slobber from head to toe by a creature is also something that came from a cartoon, a disney movie I think? They really exaggerated the thing and the character was completely covered in slobber, if you know which movie I'm talking about let me know. I think it was a dog licking a mouse, but I could be wrong, my memory is a bit fuzzy there.

Living body parts that acted independetly from their owner was a fetish that fully bloomed thanks to alphaws, but the pink panther (once again!) planted the seeds for the fetish to flourish, there was an episode where his tail would turn alive and pull him to a snake performer who wasn't even performing to a real snake, but to a rope and he didn't care about anything that was happening that's the weirdest part out of all of it. The fact his whole body got shoved into that small pot each time and the music would cause it to start all over again over the course of the episode. The cartoonish weirdness factor was so intense I wanted it to happen to me for no reason other than for the thrill of it at a young age. There was also some coiling action between both the rope and his tail too!

A fetish I didn't realize I had, but looking back hell did I have it is called "flush vore" which is a fetish where a human-sized character gets flushed down a human-sized toilet usually. To be frank, it would almost deserve to be on the section below because it would take until a disagreement on e621 between an editor and an admin over a tag for me to learn that it is a fetish and so I started looking for more of it. There was also "vacuum vore" that so far the only artist I do know draws it is kazjester.

Until I began really using the internet, I didn't have a vore, fat, inflation, macro, foot, tickling, hypnosis/mind control, sneezing and armpit fetish. Funnily enough, Bowser's inside story was a game I got as a kid and despite having 4 of the 9 fetishes I just mentioned I didn't develop them from this game. Should add that bowser's inside story was somewhat gross and occasionally uncomfortable to look at, not as bad as ocarina of time's you know what. Well, with that said there's the fact I'm pretty difficult with vore, if the prey isn't ramming their face on the pred's stomach (especially cartoonishly) or the way the prey got eaten was itself cartoony (hence why giant character eating smaller character has zero effect on me. I told you I was picky!) or the artist decided to show an inside view of the pred, then it won't have nearly as much of an effect on me. Before the game there was that mario world themed super show episode where luigi takes care of a baby yoshi, in this episode yoshi eats mario and we get to see mario's pov for a bit. This probably had more of an impact on me than bowser's inside story, but even then I wasn't fascinated by it, I just thought it was weirdly cute and convenient, yoshi is a little bit of a magical and whimsical creature, so this made yoshi interesting for vore as an adult imo.

What the furry/deviantart community contributed

Now, here's the part everybody's been waiting for! Before joining the community I wasn't interested at all in bdsm, abdl and things related to abdl like age regression, infantilism (treating an adult character as a toddler) or diaperfurs which is weird since I'm sure I've seen some cartoons with those themes. I also learned that the reason I have so many weird fetishes surrounding things you find in cartoons is because I'm a toonophile, thing I haven't realized before.

My vorarephilia mostly manifested in specific artists like baronknight, Flashyj77, GrichyinkReally, Doodledan86 and sheeptastic because they are very good at making vore look fun and sometimes harmless.

In addition to toonophilia, I have what I guess is a "form fetish" where characters depicted in certain ways arouse me especially if it's tacky for lack of a better term. My favorite "form" are male princesses, and no I'm not talking about princes, I'm really talking of dudes wearing a princess' dress. They are so sexy I do think this was part of a sissification fetish I may or may not have. Male maids, male mermaids (especially if furry and non-human), superheroes in skimpy suits, living piñatas is a recent one, cyborgs, living pooltoys, living plushies, just trust me I love weird creatures of all walks of life, colorful, feminine etc.

A little bit more grimdark, but some specific artists managed to arouse me with breath play in art including from hanging characters (as in a noose) or drowning characters, but trust me I have 0 interest in re-enacting those fantasies irl. An example is a japanese cartoon elasticity fetish artst I absolutely adore who's known as dlrowdog and they drew my favorite pokemon grabbing a superhero sylveon and pikachu with its tail that had a circle-shaped tip and strangled them. Their heads were comically bulging while he was so happy! It's so cute and the cartoon exaggeration is why I love this drawing so much! This is probably one of the few fetishes I don't understand why I have it and I'm not super into it anyway, you need a secondary fetish or put in the toony expressions to make it appeal to me. Just making it a character strangling or drowning another character won't do it.

I am sure I missed a few fetishes because I got so many, so it would be easier to list fetishes I DON'T have.

1. Pregnancy, though the way some artists draw pregnant characters can still arouse me if done right since I'm into weight gain and inflation. I also like potbellies, just not pregnancies.
2. Gore, but I do find it exhilarating. It doesn't give me serotonin, but it gives me an adrenaline rush, so it's only enjoyable to me within the right contexts.
3. Hard vore/Lethal vore/"Cooking with furs" especially if gore gets involved. Just yuck!
4. I heard somewhere eyeball licking was a thing? The mere thought of it gives me shivers. I'd rather have the whole face licked (including the eyes) than just specifically the eyes, that's uncomfy.
5. Coprophagia and almost anything to do with puking and vomit (I noticed they also tend to get mixed together). There's rarely anything I find disgusting, but this just might about do it for me.
6. Oviposition: It's gross. The only way it's ever gonna turn me on is if it is part of the aftermath of a transformation and the one doing the oviposition is laying eggs out in the open, not like the alien movie stuff.

Final words

It would take until I've matured to stop caring about all this and be a lot more open about myself, but I'd rather still keep this information private from friends and family. I couldn't accept that my sexual obsessions were ddifferent from other people as a kid, that what I was into was wrong or even seen by others as wrong. I hate myself sometimes or blame others in my head for having unusual fetishes centered around cartoons for the most part. What if things could have gone differently?

It's worth noting several of the fetishes I have used to be fears. I don't know why either, but for example I was scared of falling into the toilet bowl of toilets, so I went potty maybe until I was 5 or 6? But like very late compared to other kids who were probably already using toilets. I was also scared of feet, this is surprisingly common especially amongst girls, maybe as common as the paraphilia itself. Back when I was a child and for a while later I didn't like being tickled.

And I can bet elsagate probably spread a lot of fetishes to kids. If you're worried of furries being too weird, don't. We are not doing anything to cause the youth to be a little weirder. It is what they watch! We do not groom kids, we do not turn them into sexual deviants, it is like homosexuality, it's simply innate. Some folks will develop a liking for fat characters, others won't, you can't control that! Take me for example I was practically born with it!

I wanted to make this for a while to shed a light on this misconception and to share why I am the way I am. It's been a long-running stigma that furries have to deal with and I hope that this blog will reach folks out there. I didn't choose to have a scat fetish, and I didn't get groomed into having a scat fetish, I was born with it!
