Hey a vore guy here. I don’t blame you for finding it strange because it is. The appeal of vore can be boiled down to domination and affection/embrace. I like vore for the same reasons many submissive men would like to be stepped on, sat on, tied up, etc. To me, eating someone alive is the ultimate assertion of dominance and strength. I like the idea of a big girl making me feel small and absolutely dismantling my sense of masculine pride. There is a ‘scaroused’ quality to it that gets me worked up more than anything else. The digestion part leans even heavier into the play on dominance, more or less ‘claiming them’ in the form of dissolving prey into their frame. A lot of people prefer the other end of vore though. Intimacy means being close, and the closest you could be to someone is inside them. These people want someone they love to literally surround them; making them feel warm, safe and cherished. This desire is still very much submissive, but from a different angle entirely. The fetish is very strange and completely detached from reality, but we all know that (most of us anyway)
