Topic: What are your most VANILLA fetishes?

Posted under Off Topic

There are like three different threads in this forum for people to share their weirdest kinks. I don't see why we can't have one to discuss the "normal"-er ones.

I'll start:

Kissing: Maybe this one is a bit of a cheat because I'm mostly talking about kissing with tongue, which I think is considered vulgar by some, but even then I prefer subtler depictions of the act. What matters to me is how into it both parties are.

Nudity: Often, when I'm looking at nsfw artwork, I like to think about the state of dress the characters are in. (it's not just full nudity, but I don't now a term that encompasses all states of undress) How they would have ended up so undressed, what the context and implications are relative to setting, how the surfaces they are touching would feel on their bare skin, (if they have that) the idea that so much of the body is normally hidden just under the surface, and, in more exhibitionist scenarios, how it must feel to be so exposed and what kind of person would be comfortable like that. It's fun, idk what else to say about it.

Kissing as well, it makes me sad to see really hot designs like Lucoa and Cattleya having near to zero kissing art. I specially like kissing artwork in videos with nice sounds and even more when it ends with a saliva string that continues the kissing in a perfect loop

As for a personal vanilla kink, back_boob, for some reason on this site people forget to add it but I love it a lot, there is something about seeing big boobs from behind

Man I love before and after sex cuddles. Sex is the most powerful form of vulnerability, and cuddles usually show you will protect them and cherish them for what they are. It also is a great example of healthy relationships and sex, which is what you need. Also because cuddles are cute and usually the cum smears on each other

Mmmmmm freshly fried piping hot french fries seasoned with salt then dunk em in a cup of vanilla soft serve

Vanilla ice cream, that's about as vanilla as it gets

I like vanilla. It's the finest of the flavours.

Gotta see the show, 'cause then you'll know the vertigo is gonna grow 'cause it's so dangerous, you'll have to sign a waiver.

Oh hey, this thread seems like it was made for me. Other than one or two niche things, I'm a pretty fervent vanilla bean. Here's a few of mine off the top of my head:

Reacharounds/handjob while penetrating- probably stems from my frustration at the general lack of them in a lot of male/male art and similar, but anytime I see it, automatic big bonus points for me. Also special shoutout to oral while penetrating, when it's possible- even hotter.

Bottomless- somehow, way hotter than just being fully naked. Bonus points if there's also some long socks or stockings involved, but still no actual bottoms.

Clothed sex- similar to the above, somehow it's just hotter than nudity. Perhaps because if makes it seem more casual.

Bisexual sandwich/train- makes my little bi heart flutter. I hope I can be in the middle of one someday.

Once upon a time, I had this whole song more or less memorized. It's friggin' catchy!

Hmmmm… let’s see…
Large penises (realistic)
Pinups
Kissing
Clothed sex (especially with no pants)
Hugging
Holding hands
Foreplay
The classic Missionary position

Hand holding
Short brown hair
Brown eyes
Fit women
Happy/smiling women

I don't think any of that's too weird.

Umm... Masturbating together, casual nudity, small penis (no humiliation, just cute :3), and handjobs. They're probably as vanilla as I get anyways.

EDIT: Also, bara.

Updated

cuddling, missionary/mating press, anything surrounding impregnation, athletic/muscular males and females, size difference (but not to the extreme like macro/micro), submissive males, body hair

Imo how raunchy or vulgar a french kiss can be depends on the style in which it is drawn, as in some styles exaggerate certain details more. Don't forget the stuff where one basically deep throats the other with their tongue, which is far from what I consider vanilla. I guess what I consider to be vanilla french kissing content is just a romantic type of kiss that's without "hyper" exaggerations, similar to what you've already said.

Male that demonstrates manly power
Solo + male + erection + muscular + flexing biceps
Something like that https://e621.net/posts/4949100
I like manly feeling and that scene feels like nice antidepressant. The male character is healthy and strong. Erection works when you have good psychological state. This mood extends to you too.

Yeah, the hyper/tongue deep throating stuff isn't the kind of frenching I prefer.

I like the way you think. (also yeah, as far as dynamics are concerned, my personal definition of vanilla is anything where you get the impression that the characters have a deep trusting relationship and having a mutually good time)

Men in thongs. Not sure if it could be considered vanilla to some, but just watching a hot dude dancing in like a thong or speedo really turns me on more than them being completely nude.

I am extremely vanilla (with some exceptions), so this is easy for me.

- Missionary position, possibly my favorite position
- Nudity
- Kissing
- Romantic sex

Not sure if oral counts, but I'll list that too.

Irl romantic lovemaking, which also doubles as the single biggest "kink"

Bottomless, or other clothing that doesn't hide lewd bits. Like, anything that would have the clothed tag, but still be sexually explicit.

hm, new weird/absurd fetish acquired

Spanking
Accidental Nudity (like dick slips, pantsed, clothes gettting ripped off etc)
Doggy style (specifically someone being on all fours ready for doggystyle, something about that backsack just is really nice)

Feet (it's THE fetish), femboys/trans women, and big women (fat or muscle)

Big tits.

General happy/loving sex, handholding, anything really that shows the characters are into each other, not just fucking.

Legs: Especially thicc ones.

Clothed sex: More specifically with shorts, skirts, and small dresses.

Easily romantic couples. Call me sappy, but something about seeing two beings that love each other show just how much they love each other really gets me going.

I am glad you asked such a studious question, my fellow E621 user.
My favorite “vanilla kinks” are as follows.

The art of touches between the lips of one and their partner goes beyond the comprehension of us mere mortals. It is simply to divine to understand why it is so heavenly.

Couples of the romantic quality. There are so many pieces of literature in our furry lexicon that have JUST porn with such a small plot for the two making love. Usually it’s forgivable, but when you see it done well it changes you. Amon from Shedding Inhibitions finding true love in his mother? Then his OTHER mother? That’s drama. That’s romance. That is the rekindled spirit of a relationship, bonded together in incestous love.

This has been my favorite “Vanilla” fetishes. However, that are not simply fetishes but desires. Every one of us wish to be held, to be happy, and to be loved. I feel my true vanilla fetishes reflect this reality we all wish to hold so dearly.

Yessss. If you haven't seen it yet, look up the comic/pool Tauski's Story by Gaikotsu. Suuuuper cute one. :3

If we are going with fetishes, there's only one for me: Having my ass smacked while giving oral.

Updated

It sounds stupid, but I really like porn where both parties are having fun. Sure, there's deviation, but usually two people smiling and treating each other kindly turns me on the most.

Clothed sex, bottomless, big titties, casual nudity, snuggling and add facesitting to the list if that's consitered "vanilla".

You're never going to belive this:

SEX

Crazy, I know.

In all seriousness, I really like watching other people masterbate, so I guess you can consider that a fetish.

I also have a bit of a fixation on penises. I'm a bi dude, but I like penises independent from that. There's just something... special about them that I admire.

Huh, Iunno... Dicks and balls in general, I guess?
In the way that like... I like seeing variety of them.
Furries are kinda known for drawing enormous dicks and like, y'know, I get it, but I also get super tired of them 'cause when everyone's got a huge one, does anyone really? And like, sure I'll add them to my faves because I more so love the artist/art style attached but, I really love when an artist draws a variety of them in terms of size, shape, and so on, and especially love seeing when artists pay attention to details like foreskin, variations on such, and cut cocks as well as variations of such, where most artists tend to just draw a generic cock that looks the same on most every character they draw, and you cannot tell if they're cut, uncut, or what have you.
It's why I really appreciate artists like Sexbad or whoever else.
Same goes for balls, whether they be big, small, tight, loose, low hanging, or whether they're a coinpurse or have a lot of sack skin, etc.

But yeah, I guess that's my most vanilla fetish... dicks and balls with attention to detail that fits within the artist's own art style.

Saaaame.

Hmm probably cuddling or small penis
Hugging is neat too.
Clothed sex is cool too, or even just wearing socks.
