The trick is to have fetish so weird that no sane person would ever think that it could possible be one
Not possible in the Internet age. The baseline _accidental_ levels of porn consumption and fetish exposure now are higher than the lifetime consumption rates of perverts _actively seeking porn_ 20-30 years ago. Everyone's deep enough into the rabbit hole that there's no "sane people" left to not recognize a fetish when they see one.
@j.b.5422 Sanity used to be common, and people who don't use the internet a lot are often pretty sane.
I was already an oddball without any internet help, though it did make some things worse once I did get into it in my mid teens. My fetishes being chief among them.

It's hard for a new author to get their foot in the door so I respect someone who is willing to dig their heels in and refuse to let the publisher walk all over them even when they're stepping on someone else's toes. And we should celebrate when the new author gets a foothold in the industry and stomp out the competition.

To be fair, being swallowed whole is much better than being chewed since you have a better chance at surviving somehow.

Basically sums up Dune (the 6 by Frank, Brian skipped steps 1 and 3 and probably 2), Foundation, Ender's Game, Wheel of Time, and I'm pretty sure the Inheritance Saga, to name a few good ones.
Step one: take one of those "this is the future the left wants"
Step two: that's it. That shit's kinky enough.
My political power fantasy is a fair democracy where everybody has an equal chance of leading the nation regardless of race, color, creed, sex, gender or, sexuality.
Dude, one time I read this weird book about dragons, which I picked up because the title had stuff about dragons on it and the summary involved dragons, and then the dragon ditched the protagonist three chapters in, and she spent the rest of the book being abused until she gets to university, where it is then revealed that the entire magic system of this world is powered by sex and the reason she was failing her classes at magic school was because she was studying instead of fucking random dudes like her roommate was. I then put the book down forever.
I was 12. I picked up a book about dragons. I wanted to read about dragons. I'm still a bit traumatized.
Dude I'm so sorry lmao
What's the title? Asking for a friend
The way you wrote your comment was a bit vague, so I'm choosing to believe that it was the dragon who was abused, went to the university and got introduced to sex magic.
Honestly that might've been less traumatizing@@Quirderph
Okay you're in luck, I can't remember the title but I did some speedy googling and it's definitely 'Here There Be Dragonnes' by Mary Brown. I will warn you, it doesn't read like erotica, there's too long between the sex scenes and too much plot. If you want erotica, go read that, and if you want fantasy with sex in it I would recommend the GoT books over this one (I didn't like them much either, but they made a bit more sense). It's possible I'd like it now if I read it now, but highly unlikely. @@sir-ryan-the-dumb
I like to read werewolf/ wolf shifter books. One time I stumbled across a horse shifter book and I was really excited because I like to see new twists on beloved tropes. Then 10 chapters in the author started graphically describing the mc having s3x in horse form.
“Hmmm, why are all these monsters so big, and why can almost all of them able to swallow people whole?”
“Don’t worry about it”
"The vivd details of her slippery guts squirming against the hero are important for the readers to get a sense of the danger he's facing. It makes it all the more exciting when he finally escapes."
"Yeahh, so about that last part. You wrote that the she-snake 'births the now-naked hero' before once again 'swallowing his vulnerable body whole."
"...it's scarier the second time."
AoT is just vore fetishism?
AoT isn't really vore fetish. I mean I guess it's tangential but it seems like it's done in a way that deliberately *avoids* being vore fetish. Probably for a reason lol.

The best part is that at a certain point, if your fetish gets wild and/or depraved enough, people can no longer tell the difference.

This is basically the origin of every vampire story ever.
all vampire stories need to have a tinge of horniness otherwise it doesn't work
@@Abd-kb7trAye. Any and all vampires in my fantasy world inevitably become Bi shortly after turning or reaching sexual maturity. The "lore reason" is because they're fully dependent on blood to retain their sanity. And since love and/or horniniess *really* gets the blood pumping, that sends the vampires into a high so great that it can be described as them being "in heat." Which also comes with a side effect of them being incredibly overprotective of any mortals they might fall in love with, since the vampires don't actually have a beating heart, but mortals obviously do.
This is 100% deep lore and *totally* not some bisexual fulfillment fantasy.
You could make the argument, a very strong argument for books like Dracula, that vampires were, in literature, a metaphor for gay people.
@@Nemo_Anom there is a whole subgenre of lesbian vampire films

.or so i’ve heard
I have an idea for a Holy Order vs. Degen Cult game. But every time I pitch the idea, my players ask if they can play as the cultists.
I'm going to be honest with you man, playing as a holier than tho goody two shoes character sounds a whole lot more boring, when I could be playing as Karen the Dog Breeder, the blonde beast master ranger who really, and I mean REALLY, loves her wolf animal companion. Or a rogue who wears incredibly tight black leather armor and uses a whip. Or the classic duo, the sadistic healer and masochist tank. The cult just breeds incredibly fun ideas as opposed to generic paladin A and other generic paladin B
The solution is simple: make the Holy Order secretly just as kinky as the cultists. Hell, it doesn't even have to be secret, if you dress it properly
Example: "In order to repent your sins, you have to walk barefoot for a month. Also you have to put on this leather outfit and allow yourself to be whipped. Trust me, this is all essential to your penance"
simply add the ability to pick one or the other at the beginning
The Holy crusaders' main method of fighting the defence cult involves hiding as their victims so they can take them by surprise.
Just hint at that, and your players will have *no* trouble playing the Holy Order.
Make the Holy Order more righteous and strong, and show the cultists as sickly, weak, and physically rotting from their depravity, borderline zombies. Give the Holy Order access to cleansing flames, lightning bolt smites, and Holy Hand Grenades.
Playing as good guys and especially Paladins has been my favorite thing ever since I discovered roleplaying.
I like the implication that the other fantasy writers all moved into a house together
It was either that or live in the same house as toesucker99. Not a hard decision.
@oberonpanopticon Make that "live on the same continent".
I like that all the fantasy writers are living on the same farm, it's wholesome.
This video was funny, and then the "ten million copies" part hit and I busted out laughing!
As an aspiring author, honestly sometimes cruising goodreads and seeing all the weird cheesy carbon--copy books that have hundreds of rave reviews can be inspiring. Like, I feel like I can write something at least as good as a generic 'teen girl is a secret half-fae princess who falls in love with sexy elf assasin' book, and if that can have a 3+ star rating then there's gotta be hope for me!
As someone who reads those books, you absolutely can do better lol. The bar is not high, and by simply writing a novel with good characters you have probably passed it.
I mean, satisfying sexual urges (note: only the urges specifically, intimacy is higher up) is at the bottom of Maslow’s hierarchy of needs, so no wonder anything that satisfies it and is relatively easy to access sells well. Or gets a lot of traffic.

The robot mpreg in The Lost Light didn't raise my suspicion at first. It was part of the main villain's big plan, after all! Then I found out about the author's book-long fanfic for the same franchise, which apparently _also_ has mechpreg in it.
Welp, he's good at hiding it _and_ also freaking amazing at writing so I'm gonna continue looking past it
To be fair, it was only at the very end, and that fanfic was based on the Marvel UK comics, and in the Marvel UK comics… that was an important plot point. Look up ‘transformers budding,’ it’s got two dedicated paragraphs on the tf wiki (and blessedly no more than that)
NO because my favorite thing about JRO is I'm not even sure its actually a fetish thing! But when you notice the mpreg theme it's goddamn Everywhere. There's a location named the fucking fecund moon. It being a fetish is the more comforting answer than "he just has a weird nonsexual obsession with transformers mpreg" I'm ngl
@@demoncastledracula I have the MTMTE notebooks and the word "pregnant" came up twice in the third one (in relation to a character who was essentially a walking hotspot).
I made a post on tumblr saying I would eat a tree branch if it appeared a third time. Luckily I didn't need to, but the stuff about surrogacy near the end did give me quite the scare.
And yeah, it's weird because the context is never sexual, but like _why_ does it appear in his writing so much?

Using a fetush you have for inspiration is genuinely and completely unironically good writing advice. Hear me out i swear im going somewhere with this.
You should be excited about what your writing. Have elements to it that keep you coming back, and what could do that more than a fetishis?

My writing is based mainly on astetics
Guro fetishists deciding to make a horror film:
Everybody talks about Tarantino's foot fetish.
Nobody talks about his food fetish. You can't tell me you wanted a Big Kahoona Burger or a Five Dollar Milkshake when Watching Pulp Fiction.
I did something similar once, but with vore. It was main stream, a societal institution, even had a religion built around it. The main character was a rogue wolfman who rejected vore, and so, being neither predator nor prey, he was a third-class citizen known as a "deviant". The message? "When deviance becomes main-stream, the ordinary becomes deviant."
Needless to say, the story never took off, and never got finished. For this I am grateful. Had some good characters, though.
I've seen a few sketch comedy channels that really drag the joke out and it wasn't all that funny in the first place, but this was pretty good. Good use of a straight man, good bizarre activity for the novelist to be doing while on the phone, and it wasn't literally riffing on the same joke the whole time... I particularly enjoyed the very last gag. Thank you!
How to worldbuild 101!
Step 1: Kink
Step 2 Political Power Fantasy
Step 3: Esoteric Magical System
Step 4: Depth (optional)
The true meme would be the author isn't into feet.
If we look very hard on those Shōsetsuka ni Narō archives you will probably find a web novel with a similar premise and a ridiculously long name like: "My athlete's foot makes me invincible after I was sent to another world where feet magic is absolute".
1:21 technically, you can get away with shoe-less culture. My country and many Asian countries didn’t wear shoes at all in the past!
Tarantino bought all 10 million copies so he could direct a movie about it
For real though, I enjoyed the Legends of Pern series a lot other than all the detailed descriptions of how the dragons go into heat and mate in flight while their human telepathic bonded riders got busy.
i appreciate how you get the audio to switch from sounding like its in person or over the phone depending on who's in the shot
"fetish world building" ...I'm looking at you Sword of Truth.
Wasn't that just the author wanting to show children how smart he was, and adults how much of dumbass he was?
Having read the first 2 books a long time ago, I feel like the worldbuilding could still work if you removed the author's thinly veiled fetishes from it
The central plot, on the other hand...
The whole torture girl chapter of Wizard’s First Rule is why I can’t recommend that story to other people lmao
What fetish does that series have?
I read all... 26? Books, when I was WAY too young. Twice. This is why media censorship should exist. Ironically, it had exactly the wrong effect politically, somehow I came away from reading books designed to proselytize libertarianism thinking: Yeah, Communism!. Thankfully I later realised both Communism and Objectivsm are hollow promises.
The trick is making it good enough that no one will care.
Nice six-toed foot there at the end… ai is getting no better
Coincidentally, the video I watched before this was about how AI image generation has been making a lot of progress lately, including much better hands and feet.
But it seems like that's mostly about advanced users who train their own custom models, and write huge prompts, and use AI tools to correct the bad parts from another AI tool's work. For the casual DALL-E user, not much has changed in that time. But I'm sure it will improve soon enough for us casuals as well, as people figure out how to make this stuff more user-friendly.
This is some of the finest acting we've seen from Generic Entertainment.
The hair, the glasses, the thin color border and yellow text thumbnails... are you Man Carrying Thing's secret younger brother
being a fantasy writer with a TF fetish must be amazing because you can put werewolves and druids in without anyone caring why every transformatiom scene is hyper detailed and 5 pages long
And just add a trickster god or illusionist for human TFs
its true same w hypnosis
to write fantasy, you must include _every_ fantasy
Honestly, the idea of bodily based magic is kind of cool. Earth bending is connected to the feet, it's basically an unspoken rule that you either have to have your feet on the ground to bend earth you aren't in contact with. Fire bending is said to come from the stomach, which creates the body's energy, and the breath, and it extends past someone's limbs. There are definitely ways in which bending is linked to body parts. Different body parts and even bodily fluids being given different magical properties actually sounds like a cool idea to me, even if it could easily be twisted into fetish material or body humor.
“Quentin, it’s your cousin! Marvin Tarantino!”
The real reason the next Game of Thrones is taking so long.
Sounds like the "FATAL" tabletop RPG system, which has you roll for things like aerola size and color.
FATAL seems to be deliberately made for shock value, or perhaps to pander to a certain group. Aside from the sex, there are also mechanics for peeing, bad game mechanics, and sexist/racist worldbuilding elements.
Ah yes, the source of the infamous anal circumference check.
Your 2024 videos have been on fire, this had me cracking up 😂
this is definitely the most common variety you see in the wild but I rarely see people talk about the reverse lol. I didn't notice how much of my worldbuilding hinges on what is basically religious power play, psychological masochism, and way too many instances of people getting high/mindbroken from wielding their powers until I sit down and reread my manuscript. At one point you just see the fight scene you thought was innocently cool and get embarrassed bc it kinda makes your pp hard :/
miyazaki: yes extremely vital to dark soul lore for all the woman to be bare foot and the camera zoom close up shot to their foot during cutscene
Toeborne: The Shoe of Ascension
Dude I told you this idea in confidence!
You can’t trust anyone these days
when the fetish is a normal and often incorporated part of fantasy so no one bats an eye.
You didn't have to call out Miyazaki like this
You mean Hidetaka, right?
Sounds like every isekai or ecchi anime and manga and Jagaaan
Ah, yes I remember the butt magic anime (only women could do it for some reason).
I think you’re remembering a hentai
@@cara-seyun I don’t know I saw people making fun of it in another UA-cam video.
Are you talking about that butt sports one
Men butts don't count, no woman where consulting during the making of this peace
Keijo?
Nah, see, it's that single minded passion that leads a book like this to become popular. You can tell that the writer's feet were brimming with power that the audience was eager to suck out.
Somebody has read "She Kills Monsters"
Ok so Kojima has a hand fetish? You know, magical hands everywhere in Death Stranding 1 and 2.
No the hand is very clearly a narrative tool and serves the themes of the story, unironically because death stranding as a game delves into what it means to be human, and our connection to those who came before, things like the hand symbolism is very clearly inspired by things like the hand prints of our ancestors in caves
so my sci fi space colony survival story about how all crew members are altered so they can carry a fetus and give birth...
I don't like to kink shame but if someone's kink is child birth I think that's disgusting
@@moritakaishida7963 no, goober. its that they *can* get pregnant.
“The films main lead was Bob Odenkirk”
People find inspiration from things they like,including things that make them sexually aroused,besides sucking toes to gain magic power isn't nearly the weirdest power system idea,there's a manga where frog tadpoles possess people and turn them into monsters and the way they maintain control is by huffing jenkem...
(That's real by the way,it's called Jagaaan and it's written by the mangaka of Bluelock...)
The true artisty is just how quickly they can cover their ass when confronted with the obvious 😂
