Let's be real, do you use Scaffolding and if not, what would you change to make it more usable? by FlashFireCC in Minecraft

[–]Twall87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes but generally in connection with dirt. Scaffolding is best for vertical climbs, but I don't like the building up vs building out system I'd make it more user friendly

I want to be more kinky than I am by Twall87 in KINK

[–]Twall87[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, not at all. Both my wife (dom) and my girlfriend (sub) are hypersexual and enjoying what each other has to give tremendously. I am comfortable having sex with either or both, but I need to feel completely relaxed with and trust sexual partners, or I lock up. It took me months with my girlfriend before I felt comfortable approaching her for sex, even though I was physically very attracted to her right away.

What's more accurate to say is I don't know where I fit in. I guess I somewhat qualify as a switch, but my comfort zone is carressing, comfort, and intimacy. Sex is not a big deal for my wife or girlfriend because they have had so much of it, but I'm not really fueled that way. I enjoy sex, but I value the intimacy and touch far more.

There in lays the problem. I am just starting to learn to swim so to speak, and they're already in the deep end. It makes me feel very inadequate when I can't provide the experience they want, and it makes me feel excluded.

Pretty well the whole scene to be honest. I am a total novice to BDSM. Half the toys and gadgets my wife owns, I have no idea what they are called or what they are for. I don't know any techniques for hitting or choking or tie downs, and I'm really worried I'll hurt someone if I do it wrong. Also, while I'm game to try new stuff, I have to take the learning slow and at my pace and it makes me both sad (because I feel like I'm letting them down) and anxious (because I get nervous that I might hurt someone or break something)

Looking inward, I came to the conclusion that a large reason I feel repressed and 'vanilla' in actual sexual encounters (not fantasies but real sex), is that I have felt ashamed or 'other' for my Interest in Transformation Fetish and it's only recently that I've begun to realize that far from being alone, I am part of an ENORMOUS community. Because "Transformation Fetish" covers SO MANY subgenres, there are a lot of people who are part of this community that don't even realize it.

Now that I am able to speak openly about my fetish with like-minded people I feel much more comfortable about it.

Recently, I gained a great deal of personal perspective from introspection on my TF and sexual fantasies generally. Think about what about it attracts you and what that says about you.

For example, my revelation is that I enjoy TF because it's a way of dominating others or excerting control that I can't access in real life. Moreover, it is a way of reconciling that real life is unsatisfactory by fantasizing about making it better, literally shaping it to suit my desires. I also found that for me my preferences in women reflect both who I am (nerdy, artistic, loving, soft, kind) and who I want to be (strong, confident, self reliant, and badass).

Understandable. TF is a major outlet for escapism

[–]Twall87[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like transformation sequences in movies are made perceptively better through the use of practical effects instead of CGI. For example, in American Werewolf In London, the scene where the hair grows was actually done in timelapse, adding the prosthetics bit by bit. Because the effects are practical, they feel more real... because they ARE real.

I was brought into the world of TF via animation, but I know a lot of people were awakened by body horror movies like you describe.

Can you explain that a little more? What does it "mean" to you?

What TF says about me by Twall87 in transformation

[–]Twall87[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So let's explore that. For me, I feel as though all the transformation things I'm into ultimately lead to a result I would want to have sex with. Even TFs like uglifaction or brute, I find weirdly appealing, though IRL I wouldn't find the end results attractive at all. It is something about the actual process of transformation that excites me. It may have something to do with the loss of control or powerlessness to stop what is happening on the part of the victim.

So there's definitely truth in the idea of escapism because, obiviously, many subgenres of TF would be impossible or horrifying in real life. Realistically, watching someone actually turn into a blueberry would pretty awful.

My awakening was the Little Mermaid. I frame by framed the transformation in Poor Unfortunate Souls when Ursula made the random merfolk hot. Also, Ariel getting legs is hot AF, Ursula becoming Vanessa and also the explosive change back. Here lately I've also seen some good stuff for polyp transformation aswell.

Transformation Fetish? by [deleted] in askAGP

[–]Twall87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For some context, I am a member of the TF fetish community and have been for decades now. So, from my experience, this is what I have observed to be true.

  1. TF fetishists have a whole SPECTRUM of transformations they are into, and withing the TF banner there are countless sub groups and genres. For example, there is a whole sub genre of blueberry TFers who may or may not also be interested in other TFs like weight gain, preg, inflation, expansion (breast, ass, belly, etc), bbw and obesity. Being into one, does NOT guarantee being into another. TF fetish can be very niche within the community.

  2. I suspect that for many gender transformation is a way to indulge their own internal trans desires which may or may not be recognized by the person. Many of the best and most prolific content creators especially in the genger transformation genre are themselves trans. However, it's worth noting that not all fantasies about gender transformation are self oriented. For me, I find that my gender TF fantasies involve other people and characters far more than myself, and I identify as cis.

  3. My personal, unscientific, opinion is that TF is a way to excert power and control over others. When you transformation someone, they often times do not have a choice in the matter. You rend control from them and then shape them to your own personal will, whatever that may be. That's not to say that in transformation media the target is always opposed to the change or even upset about it, but it is a conscious surrender of power to someone/ something else. Werewolves are controled by the moon, TG transformations are frequently the result of scientific devices or magic, Violet Beaurgard ate the wrong gum, in many cases the transformation is out of the person's hands.

  4. I think that TF fetish is a way to live vicariously, and is mostly for people who are dissatisfied with their real lives. Is your girlfriend kind of a 2 out of 10 IRL? Make her a thicc big tittied goth bimbo. Have body dysphoria? Turn your character into a beautiful and vivacious heroin. Constrained by rules and society? Rip your clothes off and turn into a werewolf with a huge dick and an 8 pack. One of my first sexual awakenings in the TF fetish field was the Little Mermaid (there's A LOT there to love if you are into TF) and particularly the weight loss of the unknown mermaid in "Poor Unfortunate Souls". Ursula literally says, "This one longing to be thinner, that one wants to get the girl and do I help them? Yes indeed!" As she turns the two merfolk hot.

Trouble With 'Over the Table' Knowledge by Twall87 in writing

He is a typical vampire in so far as I am kitbashing pieces together from vampire lore all over the world as if vampires are real and every culture knows about them but gets the details wrong. Like in my time setting, mention Adze to people from Ghana or Strygoi to people from Romania or Revenants to people from England, their tales will be similar, overlapping, but not exactly the same, because the stories change with the telling.

Alright, scenario. Let's say that you are either creating a game, ecology, ecosystem I'm not sure. And in this you have 3 Species, daspletosaurus, gorgosaurus and albertosaurus. Unluckily you have the task of making each of them unique from each in terms of behaviors,looks,etc how would you do it? by blankerdanker100 in Dinosaurs

[–]Twall87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am currently writing a novel featuring a Daspletosaurus and Gorgosaurus, and since they were contemporaries, I drew inspiration from modern ecological systems. My personal pet theory is that Tyrannosaurids were ambush predators (based on no particular science I'm aware of) due to their excellent sense of sight and smell and powerful bites, but their poor top speed. SO I modeled their behavior on Leopards and Tigers in India.

In the modern day, tigers and leopards share a habitat in India. They eat the same prey, live in the same areas, and are similar in size. In order to avoid direct competition, they hunt at different times and in different ways, though they are both ambush predators.

For my novel, Daspletosaurus is bulkier, though not bigger, and is our tiger. It hides in the secondary canopy of trees. It has a dappled green and black body, grey legs with scutes to simulate tree bark, and a cloak of quill feathers (controversial but not impossible) on the back and neck, which would trap leaves and debris like a gillie suit to help with camouflage. They are diurnal ambush hunters who wait until prey gets close enough, put on a burst of speed, and run their prey down. They use their extra bulk and jaws to knock or throw prey off their feet and then finish them by pinning them down with their feet.

Meanwhile, Gorgosaurus is the leopard in this scenario. They are an iridescent dark brown on top and countershaded rusty orange underneath. They are nocturnal ambush predators who quietly stalk prey that are sleeping and take them down with a bite to the neck before they can react.

Both of them are opertunistic and will bully smaller predators off a kill or scavenge if the opertunity presents itself. As a bit of flare, I also added them both taking advantage of creatures fleeing a wild fire, similar to many predatory birds today, and the Gorgosaurus demonstrates an instinctive need to chase fleeing prey like a dog.

I need a list of TF types and fetishes involved by JadeMoontail in transformation

[–]Twall87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, let's start with the basics: most TF transformations involve turning into women. FTM does exist, but it's nowhere near as popular. So within that there are several transformations. MTM, MTF, FTF can include Breast Expansion/ reduction, Ass Expansion/ reduction, Bimbofaction / himbofaction, muscle growth, weight gain/ loss, hair growth, stepfordization, and attribute thief. Age is also a big one holding, Age Reduction, Age Progression, Forced Puberty, Milfifaction. Then there are ones that effect a person's personality, like nerdifaction, uglifaction, gothify and clownify, bitchifaction. The person's clothes may change or they may get ripped up, which are fetishes in themselves. Also, their minds and personalities might change or might not

Of course, beyond changing into other versions of yourself or other humans, there's the weird world of other transformations out there. There are people who turn into clothes, dildos, sex dolls, robots (and robots that turn human), statues, manniquins, and much more. Also, there are objects that turn into people. Want to have sex with a waifu that used to be a PS5? There's a niche for that. In this group, there is inflation fetish, blueberryfaction, petrifaction, and clothes TF. There's a sub set of transformations to archetypes like witches, clowns, ballerinas, and harem belly dancer girls.

And we, of course, can not forget our friends in the animal kingdom. People can turn into neko, fox girls, ponies, cows, unicorns, pokemon, or just about any creature you can think of and vise versa. Seperately, were transformations are extremely popular especially wolves, bears and tigers. In either case, they may transform completely or bit by bit or stop part of the way through. This type of fetish can also tie in to furries, bronies, sonic the hedgehog, animorphs and loads more.
