Your contest, your rules, that's cool. I just don't like that the predator has to be female, because I like boys. As a woman, it gets a bit annoying that most vore art caters to guys. I'm fine with you guys writing things to suit your own tastes, but I would like it if I could write what suits mine. Yeah I know I can do that by writing my own stories, and I do. I have my own little male centric naga world, but the thing is I like your art.

Well I have more of a love/hate relationship. Because I love the concepts, think you are amazingly talented. Hate depictions of women which focus on breasts and and genitals. (breasts which are always perfect and gravity defiant and genitals which are magically hairless). I don't mean to attack you. My own sensitivities are mine, and because I don't care for something doesn't make it bad. I'm also biased because I have large breasts and get annoyed with harassment I get irl, so I'm more annoyed with our cultural fixation with breasts and female body parts and tendency to objectify women than with you. Just want to say I am not flaming you. I don't want to attack or upset you. There's nothing wrong with your depictions, I support freedom of artistic expression.

Anyway though, aside from my own dislike of pictures which I find a bit objectifying. I really like your art, I really do. The world you created is interesting. I'd like to play with that.

However, I just wish I could write a male predator. Because I like guys, and I like male predators. As a woman, I also like to be able to express my won sexuality by writing about men. By writing a story which caters to my own interests as a female instead of placing the female character as an object of male desire.

By having the rule that the predator must be female, it kind of seems limiting. Almost like this is a boy's only contest. Boys write what boys want. Yes I know as a woman I should be able to write a female character, and I can. Just because of my own tendency to like relating to the prey, I prefer male predators. I also would like to focus on whatever gender I want, because it seems like society and most erotic media within society is largely male heterosexist. Meaning that its all focusing on women as the hot image of sexual desire, instead of men being desired by women who have desires. The only normal sexuality according to the media is that where the woman is an object.

So just pointing out I'd rather be able to write about a male character. Might still enter the contest though, maybe.

Again, I don't mean to offend or attack you. I want to be friends, I'm just expressing my opinion.

Well no problem, I don't take that as an attack at all ^^
I think your opinion is totally valid and pretty understandable...

However the thing is I don't impose a female predator for sexist reasons here... It's because male vore is one of the things I really really dislike and just can't look at :?
