im a bit of a pointless hater about certain usages of the term “monsterfucker” bc i think it’s often one of those things people say but don’t believe with their whole chest. like if all the “monsters” you like are vampires and similar mopey human-looking folks it’s possible you are actually just into goths. Let’s not dilute the beautiful world of teratophilia for our bloodborne sex soldiers out there fucking and sucking in yharnam or whatever. Anyone on earth would fuck a vampire. that’s vanilla
Don’t you DARE gatekeep monsterfucking OP, all fuckers of all monsters are valid. If one person mostly prefers the twink bodytype and another prefers the bear bodytype, they’re both still attracted to men. Some people fuck monsters because of the taboo of finding something dangerous or other than “human” attractive and some people fuck monsters because they want to feel a tentacle force their butthole open like an anteater snout into a termite mound. All of us are nasty freaks and there’s no need to create unneeded barriers between us.
if we’re considering essentially cannibalistic human people with bad teeth to be monsters we must include those who are attracted to British people under the banner of monsterfucking lest someone feel invalidated
So I have a theory about this:
The “attraction to vampires and other mostly-human monsters” end of the spectrum gets debated like this because it is both monsterfucking AND normie at the same time. It also has its equal and opposite twin in wanting to fuck a person so idealized they no longer resemble a human.
Actually I’d like to revise my opinion a bit because I’m hydrated now and my friend in chat pointed out that my “inhumanity of form” and “recognition of personhood” are just two of the MANY axes upon which the monsterfuckerness of anything can be judged, so I propose this:
Kink in general, but ESPECIALLY monsterfucking, is the exploration of what could be. Playing Imagination, if you will. Therefore, it’s opposite is a total lack of imagination.
Since it’s extremely weird for a human to be totally without creativity, what you get is a bimodal distribution on either side with a sharp dip in the middle, where the vast majority of people are into something A Little Weird, tapering out the Spiders Georgs out there who want to be actually jacked off by the invisible hand of the marketplace or suchlike esoteric and unachievable fantasies.
Hence, wanting to fuck a vampire is both monsterfucking and normie at the same time.
An Example Graph for people that didn’t take stats back in high school: The distribution of attraction on the Hyperhuman-to-Inhuman Anatomical Axis of Monster Fuckery (one of MANY axes of monsterfuckery)
Figure 1: classic Nonhuman Antatomical Form Monsterfucker Spectrum
Figure 2: Proposed Inverse of the previous spectrum, AKA “Hyperhuman Anatomical Form” Monsterfucker Spectrum:
Figure 3: The full spectrum of Deviance From Human Anatomy Axis of Monsterfuckery:
My theory is that you can analyze “Monsterfuckery” on various axes (inhumanity of form, social monstrosity, etc.) and the population distribution will shake out the same way.
This is unbelievably cool!!! I completely agree that attraction to vampires is both monsterfuckery and “vanilla”. Knowing as I do that vampires are thee most popular monster in the pantheon, and how part of their monstrosity is the terror that they look Just Like Us and we don’t know what they are, it does create a sort of paradox of monstrosity and humanity. But that’s actually why they are monstrous because they deny categorical neatness! They are both living and dead—sometimes human looking (depends on the depictions) but incredibly monstrous. I’m absolutely thrilled that this person did all these graphs and I’m even more excited that @teratophiliologist and I have questions on our upcoming monsterfucker survey that will also address this topic! (IRB hurry your ass up). I would answer this more but I also lowkey just woke up lmao so I’m a bit groggy so I’ll return to it
