Yaoi is japanese slash. Shota is yaoi that focuses on sexual relationships between two minors or a minor and an adult.

Well, **TLDRIDKJKLOLFTW** (btw, I agree with **panache45** : that username’s gotta go), the problem that I see is that when looking at unusual fetishes, it seems to me that it behooves the fetishist to take a broad view of his/her fetish. Otherwise, you become so restrictive that your base becomes a tiny band of 100 guys. Not good for generating good stroke fiction and cool pictures. Besides, I suspect you are in a minority among cuckolding aficionados: humiliation seems to me to be an inherent part of the fetish. _You_ seem to be the unusual one. I’m curious. Is the appeal to you the idea of a rapacious female sexual appetite, something you can brag about to other men and invoke jealousy because although they may fuck her, you truly have her and they are just borrowing her with your permission? Do you fantasize about whoring out your SO’s pussy, mouth, and ass?

I’m proud to say I’m a real perv. At an S & M convention once, I got pissed on by a pretty young asian woman. There was a demonstration, and they asked for volunteers. It was me and one other guy (who took it from another man). Although there were many onlookers, no one else wanted to volunteer. Pussies. Unfortunately, **Ms. Malienation** was busy elsewhere, so I got no pictures. Damn. Wait…where was I? Oh, right… Anyway, as far as my own fetishes, I’ll address one of my favorites (and one of many). I like nude pictures of women shot from below, so they tower above the viewer. It’s an unusual view, and not really common. I prefer shots where the woman’s face makes eye contact with the viewer (sexy or seductive is nice, but a nice bitchy glare saying “cooperate fully until I’m done with you”, ooooh baby), and I prefer a shot at a steep angle. Still, all tower shots are good (similar shots where the woman is lying down usually don’t cut it; she has to be standing). The power dynamic over the viewer turns me on, especially if the women’s legs are spread such that it is implied that she is just getting ready to unceremoniously squat down over me and ride my face or cock (not TOO wide though…that just looks like she’s exposed and vulnerable, not ready to put me to work). Point is, I do NOT like upskirt pictures. Upskirt pictures are surreptitious pictures of unsuspecting women, shot from below with miniature cameras. In addition to being an invasion of privacy, they just don’t do it for me. There’s no power dynamic over the viewer. But upskirts are often mixed in with tower shots. Whaddya gonna do?

I have a convoluted-username fetish.

Are they necessarily all an invasion of privacy, or could some of them have been taken with consent? (obviously not if it’s some guy shoving a camera up a girl’s skirt without her knowledge, but more like filming an actress’s nether regions to make it look like that.)

I just want to be able to breathe in the fumes of leaked engine coolant and shoot hot streams of semen all over the crushed instrument panel of my car without the police accusing me of running over pedestrians. I’m not interested in pedestrians!

Yeah, I guess technically that could be the case. It would be easy and cheap to make, too, since cheap crappy photo quality would actually add to the appeal among upskirt fans since the pictures would seem genuine. And hiring women to do it would be easy, since the face is not shown, and the bodies of the women are often not model quality (again, that would make them seem more genuine). Seeming to be legitimate upskirts seems to be key among fans of the genre. BTW, many upskirt shots don’t show pussies, they show underwear.

How one man defied the odds and won the same thread twice, the \*\*Argent Towers \*\* story.

Like others have said yaoi is the relationship between men (either adult or high school) and shota usually involves disturbingly young looking boys. I don’t think they’re the same at all but they’re often grouped together. Partly it’s because Japanese sensibilities are a bit different; partly it’s because what does make it over here, tends to be a bit more heavily weighted towards the fetishists.

**Argent Towers** , you’re a fucking weirdo. There’s nothing sexy about **TGDISNBUEHAUGHDADHUBV** ’s username.

I was kidding. Read the rest of the post.

At the very least, **Argent Towers** knows I was kidding, as I referenced an inside joke of ours.

I actually find parts of that movie pretty hot, but I don’t get off on guys who fuck their cars’ tailpipes. Or the movie’s wound-fucking scenes, I guess. Maybe I’m just too judgmental.

Nobody does that in either the film or the novel.
