I’m still doggy-paddling around Mundaneville.  
I love doggy-paddling, though, so it’s all good. 😉

That made me sad. So many glitches to go wrong with normal, simple sex… sigh

Did you try the food and drink, or maybe cajoling the doorknob?

Not even close. It’s a subset of furry, closely related to vore. The fantasy is (much) more often about -being- the animal being squished, rather than doing the squishing to an animal. Masochism meets snuff meets Godzilla. It’s size queen taken to an extreme.

You’d be surprised!

Chalk me up as another disappointed in the random layout of things. I’m geeky enough to be hoping for the map to be plotted out based on directed graph theory. I’d apparently have quite a lot of frequent flier miles - I visit all over the map without stopping in the regions between.

I know. I have to remind myself that this map did not come from xkcd. When I finally put my pins in, I realized Mundania is not the only place not well laid out.

This is really a terrible map.

It badly short-changes mainstream sexual preferences in every way–from the name Mundania to the size and placement and isolation of the place. It barely touches on the range of hetero-to-homosexual possibilities (until you get to Gender and Orientation Identity, a land as big as Mundania). I don’t see extramarital sex anywhere–perhaps it’s not as popular as “figging” which gets its own country. To look at this, you’d think that BDSM was the norm and necrophilia was more common than masturbation.

It’s a shame that someone had a good concept and put a lot of time and effort into it, and ended up with this piece of garbage.

Ah yes, the flyover kinks.

I like the idea of mapping it onto North America, so that Mundania becomes Bermuda, and Tronna, well, y’know.

Nothing much to add here, since I can’t see the site from work, but I just wanted to comment that I did not read “Toontown” as starting with a “T.”

Oh. My. God. This is amazing. Thanks for linking. I’ll post my results later after I’ve poured over the map.

Can’t address the animals, but as for diapers, why not?

Physical:  
-genital-focused  
-warm  
-wet  
-slippery  
-restrictive

Mental:  
-humiliation  
-desperation  
-bondage/discipline  
-secret (if underneath clothing)

In terms of mind and body, it would be hard to come up with something that touches on more aspects of sexuality than this.

Sadly, I could not locate the “Island of Knocked-Out Superheroines” – or was it a valley? Or possibly a mountain?

Maybe I should just pencil it in…

Sounds like a tourist from Cosplay visiting the Island of Non-consent, perhaps with a few videos published in Sleep Sex.

The map doesn’t require modification.

Of course! What was I thinking?

Here’s [a link to the story](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?p=12203463#post12203463) of one doper who has first hand experience with a wacko like that. I mean, she didn’t change his diapers, but she dated someone who liked it. Eeeww.

I’m on a dinghy with a pair of binoculars, just off the island of Lesbos.

You might want to PM **Olives** , so that she knows she’s participating in this thread as well. 🙂

1. There are more transsexual people in the world than MtFs.

2. Regardless of that, transsexual people are people, not walking fetish objects, and people occasionally become interested in them and even have sex with them because they regard them as attractive women or men (with the hydraulics being a secondary concern), not because they fetishize them.

3. The transsexual people in my life generally bristle to think that someone is fetishizing them. The idea that _any sex at all_ with them is a weird kink is all the more offensive, and frankly dehumanizing.
