What is Vore?
Asking her to make you a sandwich if she's bigger is not a good idea.
Vore is an intense interest and/or often an erotic kinky sexual arousal for someone who wants to either:
-
Be consumed (Prey)
-
Consume another (Predator)
-
Watch the scenario (Observer)
Whoa! Wait what?! Sounds crazy right? Who the heck would be into that and why?! Actually, quite a lot of people around the world! It's not that rare and for good reason! People into vore nearly always have a very active imagination, or are incredibly smart from their thought process. It is purely fantasy driven, and every single voraphile is unique in what they like and hate about it. For some, it can be an extreme form of BDSM, reducing others or feeling yourself as nothing more than food. And yet for others, it's an extremely loveful experience to become one with someone, or even just having them inside your body and protecting them.
Vore doesn't even have to involve chewing, pain, or death. A lot of voraphiles prefer the gentle and loving aspects of it. It's certainly also NOT cannibalism (explained later), and most voraphiles don't ever think about it that way, would flinch at that the thought, or even get depressed having imagined someone getting hurt! Some like it extremely realistic, and others just think after being swallowed that *poof* you're gone! There's also Endosomatophilia which is where the prey lives inside the predator! It makes for a pretty cool idea for a hotel!
People into vore are not bad, or evil, and nothing's wrong with them at all! It's pure fantasy that cannot ever be real (unfortunately... erm I mean fortunately!). And even if it could be real, most would be terrified of hurting anyone at all. Like the giantess kink, it doesn't suddenly turn someone into a heartless monster. Opposites attract, and someone completely kind and selfless in every aspect of their life may just like to act out a little selfish, cute, not feel helpless, or just wanting a power rush. A break from their normal every day lives. People play video games to escape their reality or to put themselves in a story (Dungeons & Dragons), vore is no different except that it is a kink.
In 2023, 'Giantess' was the most searched term on adult website clips4sale. And 'Vore' was the 2nd most searched term as they're related kinks.
If your partner or friend is into vore, this page is designed to also help you understand it better, and what you can do. If you are a voraphile yourself and are happy you've found out you're not alone. Then hopefully this page can help you (or your partner), and show you that it is totally ok to love it, and that you should accept you for being you!
IMPORTANT NOTE: As Giantess Vore (Vorarephilia) is one of the most common types of vore, & this site is also used to explain the Giantess (Macrophilia) kink. It will be used as the main example in explaining this page. There are many types of vore, however macro vore is the easiest to convey and understand due to the concept of giant's existing for thousands of years. If you are a voraphile who is not into macro vore, just imagine your vore category of interest/preferred gender instead of the macro vore examples being used on this page.
What triggered the Vore kink in people?
RAWRRR!!! OMNOMNOMNOM!!! FLEE FROM ME PUNY HUMA-
"Ajia! Come downstairs honey, dinner's ready!"
Voraphiles are people who have a very big and elaborate imagination. You'd need it since it's nearly complete fantasy after all! From my own experience, talking to many friends into it, and other people in the community. The most common way vore usually triggered or manifested for them was at a very young age, and accidentally stumbling across it.
Cartoons like Tom & Jerry, or movies like Men in Black II had vore scenes, and while usually cute and innocent. People have had no idea why they are so strongly fascinated by it. Others like me developed it in addition from traumatic experiences and as a way to cope or escape from their real life situation. But when we'd first come across vore, even we've felt like it was always just there and naturally. Another way people got into it was because they were into other kinks such as giantess, weight gain, or female empowerment. These kinks have vore within it in some shape or form. Such as being an unstoppable force of power like a gigantic Goddess who decides others fates.
When it's come to people who found out by one of us telling them, it varies. I've told quite a few partners and female friends throughout my life who had originally never heard of vore or the giantess kinks. Not everyone was as accepting or open to it, but some didn't mind it, and others had fallen completely in love with it. One close friend finds it cute and funny so she teases me every time we hang out or makes remarks when she's eating. One ex-partner was very much into power (and abuse) and also loved the utter humiliating aspect of it. And later on another partner saw how it was extremely loveful and cute imagining her boyfriend as a cute pet she could tease and toss around in her mouth for fun; threatening to swallow him if she didn't get enough kisses or just treating them like a little snack.
No-one really knows why people become so interested in vore, at a guess one reason is probably because it is the most extreme BDSM thing that you can imagine, or because of how cute and empowering it can be. Unfortunately one thing is for sure, it is usually not a choice for most voraphiles if they've gotten into it at a young age, and it can lead to severe addiction (more on this later). Sometimes even sex is not enough of an arousal compared to vore.
Voraphiles come from every corner of the globe, of every ethnicity, and there a lot of people you would never have expected to be into it. It's an uncommon fetish, but not as rare as people think. Google search and Pornhub reported 'giantess' in recent years among the highest rated terms, and clickbait has increased heavily for terms like vore and giantess. There are even expo's related to it like SizeCon in America!
The term 'Vorarephilia' originates from the Latin word 'Vorare', which means to swallow or devour, and 'Philia' which means 'love' in Ancient Greek.
Why do people like Vore or find it arousing?
Vore doesn't exclusively mean eating smaller people. But it does make them easier to swallow!
There are many reasons why someone may be into vore. The allure of it isn't just seeing or imagining being eaten or eating. The best parts are actually the teasing, and anticipation leading up to it!
In vore, the two most common types of personalities are 'Willing', and 'Unwilling'. With prey usually being unwilling or willing to be eaten, and the predator usually being willing or unaware depending on the scenario.
One of the most common reasons people find vore arousing is because of the BDSM aspect. Some of those themes (pred / prey) include:
-
Being unstoppable / completely helpless.
-
Feeling you're better than everyone / feeling utterly insignificant or trivial.
-
Able to control others lives and end them / absolute submission.
-
Humiliating someone completely / feeling someone's absolute power over you.
Another common theme is romance, cuteness, and love:
-
Being big enough to be seen as a threat (giantess), but choosing not to be that threat (unless they want it).
-
Teasing and showing the amount of power they have and how easily they could eat you.
-
Protecting and loving someone so much that they feel vore is like the biggest hug that can be given or received. Protecting them with their body, and letting the other feel nothing but the warmth and love of being completely surrounded by them. Feeling comforted.
-
Picking up and licking or swallowing a friend teasingly while they cannot do anything about it.
And some common scenario's that people love:
-
Giantess and shrinking, or same size vore.
-
Putting them in sexual places (foreplay but gigantic!)
-
New world orders / dystopian.
-
Trapped in food.
-
Hotel roleplay / Inside tummy massages.
-
Chase (Cat & Mouse).
The combinations and scenarios are limitless in vore. Because there are so many different types, and kinks that intertwine. This is why every single voraphile is different. One might like ending it at being swallowed, another might like to go into digestion, and another might like digestion but hate any imagination of acid or realism. Then another might just like to spend time with the predator that ate them because they find the idea loving by just listening to all the gurgling sounds and heart beats in a warm, comfy, and squishy stomach. Not everyone finds it sexual, just an intense interest or like a pop culture. Personally for me, it's not sexual unless it's with my partner. Being considered a pet / prey for a giant girlfriend gives me a strong sense of love, teasing, and adoration to be her world. (Plus the views from her cleavage OMG! OMG! OMG!).
So as you can see, everyone into vore is different and with varying interests. Teasing or being teased by a giantess is a very cute thing! It's all fun and games until someone gets eaten. Then it's just someone having 'lunch' or starring in a kinky horror movie depending on which role you were.
Hang on, isn't it cannibalism?!
Vore isn't cannibalism at all. Even if treating others like food is involved.
Heck no! *Shudders*. Vore is NOT considered cannibalism, honestly the thought of that makes nearly all voraphiles squirm! Voraphiles generally don't like harming anyone or anything in real life either! Even if they're a predator or into BDSM that loves the power.
But vore includes eating someone doesn't it? So what's the difference?!
There are a few major differences between vore and cannibalism. Vore is pretty much pure fantasy, and while it usually involves the victim being swallowed whole and alive ('soft vore') in some way. Not all vore is oral either. Pretty much every orifice of the body has a subcategory of the kink with it. It also doesn't have to include chewing, gore, digestion, or even hurting anybody.
Whereas cannibalism is consuming the dead of the same species, often gory and only as food. While some vore fantasies can include digestion and absorption, cannibalism is still considered extremely different and nothing a like. There is a subcategory called 'hard vore' which involves chewing but even then it's still considered different. Cannibalism, is just a whole other thing altogether that we don't even think about nor want to! (Unless the vore type is something that incorporates digestion etc, and even then not something usually thought on).
A better way to word the difference: If someone is swallowed alive, but the voraphile is a gentle lover and doesn't digest/lets their lover back out. How can it be considered cannibalism? In that example the kink is in having the power to be bigger/smaller with a massive difference in power.
The vore fantasy comes in various shapes and sizes, and not just including tiny people but people of the same size, or not even including people at all (furry etc). It's a massive kink with tons of subcategories branching out from it.
Unwilling Vore is NOT sexual violence
Vore and BDSM go hand in hand. But vore isn't always BDSM related.
Even though 'unwilling vore' may technically seem like sexual gratification from violence. It's not even comparable to something as despicable as rape.
First off, rape in real life is horrible, disgusting, and anyone doing it deserves to spend life in prison and worse. Secondly, vore is pretty much pure fantasy and can't ever be accomplished until shrink or growth ray guns exist, which will (sadly- erm I mean happily) be never... Thirdly, BDSM is a major part of the fetish itself. It's all just roleplay and unwilling is always somebody who's actually willing! People like playing or watching scary games or shows. Unwilling Vore is no different and just starring in one that happens to be sexual sometimes for voraphiles.
Besides, does eating food really make you anything as despicable like a rapist? Nope? Didn't think so!
I mean, just imagine a giantess having to try justifying herself for simply eating food!
- Information for Partners of Voraphiles -
My partner is into Vore, what do I do?
The best relationships, are those built on shared experiences through difficult times. Ones where partners still court each other every day since the day they met. Because that means they're thinking & caring about what the other is feeling always.
This section is written in a way primarily for non-voraphiles who came across this site, or who's partner is trying to help convey vore to them. If you have NOT read the first 3 topics at the top of this page, it is highly recommended you do so before continuing. Click to return to the top.
Hopefully, you found this page before coming across the other stuff online. A big part of why I created this site and this page is because I lost my fiancé when she wanted to be loveful and looked up what vore was to figure out what she could do more for me. That was something I never expected let alone thought of. Unfortunately there is a lot of bad stuff and comments out there that does not represent the vast majority of the vore community at all (it's also why the vast majority of voraphiles don't talk or interact with the community for being ashamed they're in it too). I don't want anyone else to go through what I did, as it traumatised her so badly from what she had seen and couldn't unsee it, and killed me inside to this day because of how she then viewed me which I completely understand.
So if you're of open mind and want to be more loveful and give it a shot for them, you now have an opportunity to develop an even closer and more amazing relationship with your partner. There is other information here too such as if you feel that they shouldn't be into vore, or if that you feel they may need help as they've become obsessed with it. For both scenarios, it is vital that you keep in mind that every single voraphile is different, and you need to be empathic and try to put yourselves in their shoes. It's completely fine not to like it because it is a weird concept to most, but the moment you make them feel judged it can affect your relationship depending on how it's been going. Below is some very important advice on what you can do.
First of all, it is extremely important that you understand that it is not a 'phase' or anything like that. A lot of voraphiles got into it at a very very young age and it's not by choice for a lot of them. Trying to get them to give it up and quit is like getting you to give up on sex completely and not be turned on by anything else. For some voraphiles, it's actually become a sexual identity because normal sex cannot do as much for them as vore does. If you're completely against it, and not willing whatsoever to try for them. It may be time to rethink your relationship with your partner. Some voraphiles can change, but it's something that is always going to be there burning away at them. Trust me, I've tried to give it up multiple times throughout my life and I'm not the only one. It always comes back.
So if your partner is more into vore than sex, it's completely understandable that this may make you feel unloved or not good enough. But it's actually far from it if they've told you that they're a voraphile! Because your partner has just trusted you with a secret so dear to them that most take it to their graves. They've literally just put their entire soul in your hands because they love you that much and want to make it work while not hiding anything from you. It is never easy to tell someone let alone a partner because they would've been so terrified of losing you. Imagine trying to tell someone they'd love to be eaten by you or swallowing you, how crazy or strange that sounds! It probably brought them borderline suicidal thoughts, especially depending on how you, as their partner would've taken it. It took 7 years of marriage for a good friend of mine to even tell his wife, and luckily it worked out and they are now even closer than ever! She knew there was something, and when she found out. She just thought "Is that all?"!
So if you're with a voraphile who has (hopefully) made it clear on their kinks and if vore is on par or above normal sexual relations for them. Don't take it like they're not turned on by sex/you. But as something to overcome together if it does make you feel that way. It is especially important in relationships to let the other know what is working and what isn't, it works both ways. And they most certainly love you and want to make things work. Trying to get them to give up and go cold turkey is like getting someone to quit smoking on the spot, but also making them feel completely worthless because they feel that you are not accepting them for who they are. Similar to how someone LGBT+ may not get the hopeful response and support from their family when they open up about it for the first time. They are just as equally terrified of losing you, and being judged for something they know is not the norm. And who knows? Maybe you've got a kink you can share with them, or maybe you'll even like vore!
Relationships always get better when you work things out together. It builds that trust, that love, and strengthens the connection. But it is equally important that if you feel they are being controlled by the kink to let them know it's a bit too much. Because one common mistake that voraphiles do is that after realizing they've been accepted and feeling loved for who they are, is that they can go overboard or get it confused with you liking the kink as much as them. Set your boundaries, and make sure that they also do what you enjoy too.
A very good place to start if you're learning about the kink for them, is by doing small things. Such as if they prefer being prey and you the predator, to tease them and call them names like 'snack', 'little man/woman', 'tiny one' etc. Even small things like biting their ear or licking them randomly will do wonders! And expect them to share that love back to you in a way you enjoy. Affection and teasing goes a really long way for Voraphiles, and makes them feel that they've been accepted for who they are by you. It is also important to have your partner tell you what they're into and why. Reading this page alone may give you a misguided sense of something your partner may not be into. So find out ASAP after this if you don't know already.
If you're still unsure about trying it out, think of it this way. If the kink doesn't completely gross you out, or cause PTSD. Why not try it out awhile? Find out what they like and you may find another side of love to your relationship now you have someone who is completely comfortable being themselves and wanting to really be with you. If you have a kink, tell them too!
In the end, if you've tried some things in the roleplay section below, and you still find that vore is just not for you at all. Just let your partner know that you don't feel comfortable about doing it. Emphasize that you're fine with who they are, but it's just not the kind of thing that you feel comfortable to do. You've already taken a big step in making them feel accepted, and it is important to make it known so you're not doing something you feel forced to. But it's also important that your partner does not feel like you're lying about accepting them either.
Roleplay and real life
Being Tiny is an Occupational Hazard!
Teasing a Macrophile or Voraphile with their kink can be a lot of fun!
This section is written in a way primarily for non-voraphiles who came across this site, or who's partner is trying to help convey vore to them. If you have NOT read the first 3 topics at the top of this page and the one above, it is highly recommended you do so before continuing.

So if the kink is complete fantasy... How do you roleplay or tease your partner?
Well, there's quite a few different ways! It is especially important to let your partner know, like sex, what you like or don't like. So let them explain to you what they like and why first. There are a few subcategories of vore that can be a little unsettling for someone who doesn't understand or know why someone likes it. You don't have to do everything they like to have a loving relationship, as you've already established you're willing to try for them!
So as mentioned before, a good place to start is by doing small things. Such as if they prefer being prey and you the predator, then you can tease them and call them names like 'snack', 'little man/woman', 'tiny one' etc depending on their preference. It's also much easier to do via messaging. Teasing is key to everything! Below are some examples if they prefer being treated like prey.
Small things you can try that can do wonders:
-
Biting their ear/licking their cheek and whispering they're delicious.
-
Let them watch you eat/swallow your food with your mouth wide open close up.
-
Burping in their face/pretending you ate someone and ask them if they're jealous.
-
Telling them they'd look good on your thighs/chest etc.
-
Tease them about how nice they would go down with a meal like dinner.
-
Letting them lie on your tummy and listening to it.
-
If they're into Macrophilia (Giantess etc), you can text and act like a giantess or tiny. Even use a tiny toy and pretend it's you or them. You can find some cheap online for model rail sets.
It might seem strange and weird at first, but if it doesn't bother you then you should really give it a try! Maybe you'll even like the sense of empowerment or submission. You will be so surprised by how much of an effect any of the above examples can have on a voraphile. You should expect them to share that love back to you in a way you enjoy, but tease or excite anyone enough and they would do that anyway! If your partner prefers being a predator, ask them what they'd like you to do. Some friends like having their partner curl up in a ball under their shirt to give them a feeling of a full belly. Remember, every voraphile is different!
One of the best ways to roleplay with them is via text or messaging apps. Making a story together in a chosen scenario or just acting out as a predator and prey. For example a common scenario is one where someone is the giantess destroying a city or playing hide and seek with a friend who knows they'll get eaten if found. Roleplay can be extremely daunting, even for those of us who have done it countless times or feel they're not good enough to. But it's really worth doing, gets very easy once it starts, and in the end there is no right or wrong way to do it. Your partner will be able to help you or give you examples if you've never done something like it or Dungeons and Dragons before.
For other ways to roleplay, there are a few good video games around, some being multiplayer. But due to the idiocy of the community there aren't many good games being made as piracy shows it's not worth it. However, a very good and free game (also VR) I recommend is called ResizeMe!
Voraphiles love teasing, and anticipation up to the vore part. It's incredibly dull with just going straight to it or everything being treated like nomnomnom, done, finished. When in doubt, don't hesitate to ask your partner about it.
If you found this article by wanting to be loveful or finding out what to do. Then not only are they very lucky to have you, but you should let them know and ask them what they like, just in case. Because unfortunately you can put someone off by saying the wrong thing, for example talking about death by digestion when they might only want to be surrounded by you, or protecting you. Because they don't ever want to imagine you getting hurt in any way.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
VERY IMPORTANT WARNING: If you are the first person your voraphile partner has ever told or you are the first one to accept them for being into vore and are trying for them. Then expect them to be very lovey dovey but also be very aware that they can lose themselves to it.
What I mean by this is that they can start to think you are into vore already, or forget that you are not actually into it. The first 2 weeks are an especially important part to tell if it'll grow on you or if you are not into it. The whole experience can come across as very daunting or making you feel like you or sex, is not good enough for them as much as vore is. So it's important to let them know if it does. And like a honey moon period, it should die down for them.
The reason they may lose themselves is because it can be very overwhelming for a voraphile who feels they've finally been accepted by someone non-voraphile. They've held that secret in for their entire lives and never had anyone to share or have fun with. And in that time, they've usually beaten themselves up countless times, tried to quit, and couldn't figure out why they would like something so weird to everyone else.
So be sure to let them know if the way they're going is too much for you, or if you want them to stop. Even if vore is not for you, it doesn't mean you can't have a happy relationship with them. But be aware that it can lead to resentment in the long run if they're not allowed to scratch that itch. If you don't mind them looking at porn, then that can still be an outlet for them too as long as they understand you still accept them for who they are, and don't resent them for being into something usually out of their control.
Relationships work both ways. And if you are doing a whole lot of vore related things and teasing them, they should also be making sure that they are doing a lot of what you love too.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
My partner is addicted to Vore!
If your partner is suffering from addiction, it's important to address it early before things become too late.
This section is written in a way primarily for non-voraphiles who came across this site, or who's partner is trying to help convey vore to them. If you have NOT read the first 3 topics at the top of this page and 'My partner is into vore, what do I do?', it is highly recommended you do so before continuing. Click here to return to the top.
If you feel your partner is overly obsessed and addicted to vore, AND you don't think it's part of the honey moon period that you've accepted them for who they are. Then hopefully this section will be able to help you.
Firstly, it's important that you do not confuse addiction and seeking attention with one another. If your partner needs a vore 'fix' and you've accepted them and tried it, then they may just be hinting that they need it at the moment, or that they're feeling like you don't actually accept them anymore. If you don't want to continue vore with them, then it is imperative that you let them know. But explain it in the way where you still completely accept them for them, but make it clear that vore is just not for you. Vore isn't for everybody, and that's ok.
If you're sure it's complete addiction (like sex or drugs) and not the above scenario, then you will have to tell them and make them realize they're addicted to it BUT in plain words and that it's affecting the relationship. Be truthful with your feelings on the subject but remember that it is something that most voraphiles have been into from a very young age. There is no easy way to let them know, however it's very effective if you let them know with examples just how much they've been going on about it/looking at content/or not being as loveful in the way that you like.
Another good way is to tell them that they're over doing it and it's scaring or starting to put you off now. They should understand and try to take a step back, but they will need your support to feel that you've still accepted them. Remind them that you are still with them and have been long before vore even came into the relationship. Saying something in a certain way is usually all you need to snap them back to their senses. One example for me is when an ex-girlfriend told me that vore is basically my porn. I never saw it that way at all (and I bet many voraphiles still don't), and it didn't click for me until right then. If you're not fine with your partner seeing porn or if they're not fine with you looking at it, then make sure they realize that the same goes for vore content too.
If they understand, ask them if there's anything you can do to help curb it. Maybe they might ask for just teasing every so often to slowly ween it off if you're comfortable with that. Or if you're fine with them looking at vore content when you're not around for a quick fix. If you want them to completely stop then you'll need to help them by giving them something else whenever they feel the need for vore. For instance kissing or hugging them when they feel the need to distract them and focus on you instead. Like any addiction (smoking etc), anything that takes their mind off things helps a lot over time. There is a section on this page for them that they can read later for additional help too.
One thing is for sure, like any good relationship, a good partner will put you before themselves. And not just say "I can't". If they're not willing to make a change or can't, you can try making them think about what will be the end result. If they ignore you or don't do something about the addiction. Then what can happen? And will it be worth it?
- Help information for Voraphiles themselves -
I'm a Voraphile, should I be ashamed?
This section is written primarily for voraphiles, especially those who recently found out they are not the one out there. If you are not a voraphile yourself, it is not recommended to read further as the above article was the last one designed to help you. Click to return to top.
If you are a voraphile and if you haven't already, it is recommended to have read the first 3 general topics at the top of this page first. The reason information for partners was placed above this section is because they do not need to read past this point. Not only will they not understand it, but it tries to approach every type of voraphile generically; it can be mistranslated to non-voraphiles. This article is a bit long but by the end of it you will understand why.
So, should you feel ashamed for being a voraphile? It's something every single one of us will most likely have thought about multiple times throughout our lives, and beaten ourselves up for. The answer is actually yes, and no. I'll start with the negative first because it depends on where you fit into the below paragraph.
Outside our community we are persecuted and judged because of a few idiots who not only make the the rest of us look bad, but make us feel deeply ashamed for even being in the same community. Vore and giantess kinks have a very bad name out there because of people who post the most brain dead things like 'eat/crush me' on non-fetish material. Others, trick and use people into posting innocently seeming material out there. Like tricking teenage girls into answering 'What would you do if I were shrunken/action man sized'. It sounds innocent to those not into these kinks, but to those into it, it's essentially porn. Then there are also those within our community (especially women), who are targeted by so many people trying to 'act' cute or be friendly. Ultimately the conversation will suddenly switch to sexual at some point, or they'll try to force roleplay into the conversation. This causes anyone legitimately trying to make friends, and those who are shy (a lot of people have anxiety) to see how people are treated and it makes them feel so ashamed to even be there. I've even lost hired artists and voice actresses after people stalked them and go under the delusion that they're into the kinks. If you are forcing your kink on someone, you're an asshole. And you need to get your addiction and obsession under control. There's a useful guide further down to help you do it.
So, if you are someone who does stuff like the above, cannot control themselves, or trick people into providing your vore content. You should damn well be ashamed of your kink. Do something about it like go seek therapy because you honestly need it. Sexually harassing someone is never ok, and it also reflects and shines a bad light on the rest of us when it gets in the news. If you've done it before but realized it's wrong, and regretted it. Then it's ok, because you now know the difference where others don't care past their 2 second fap. So if you can, try to make up to the person you did it to, and help others be aware that it's not ok to do this type of behaviour. It takes a lot for someone to admit when they're wrong, and not follow what looks like the masses. Everyone makes mistakes in life, but it's your actions and what you do about it now that matters.
If you are not like the above or using others for sexual gratification. Then you have absolutely no reason to be ashamed of your kink! And I will explain why in detail below. The reason I've listed the negative part first, is because not only does it need to be said, but it is also very important that people realize just how seriously it affects others. Not everyone addicted may realize what they are doing, but humans will always make up every excuse under the sun to try justify the wrong things they do and want.
BELOW LEFT: A small video snapshot of the sexual harassment that girls go through every single day.
This is why it's so hard to make new friends and what people should be ashamed of. Not for simply liking Vore.

Why you shouldn't be ashamed and why you should accept Vore as being perfectly ok!
With the above clarified, here is why being a voraphile is perfectly fine, and not at all weird!
Feeling ashamed of liking vore, is something every single voraphile and macrophile will have felt at some point, and it's natural. It's this strange kink that is not the norm, and that can involve death or suicide aspects. After all, wanting to be eaten, or eating someone isn't something people would normally ever think of!
But honestly if you think about it, why should it make you feel ashamed? I'm serious! The world is finally opening up to be more inclusive of people of all shapes, sizes, and sexual orientations. And your own happiness and health are among the most important things in your life. You can't look after yourself (or your partner) if they're both low! So what does it matter to anyone else if something makes you happy, that doesn't hurt anyone else or uses them? No-one else's opinion should matter when it comes to what you like! Except if it's about owning Apple products or against pineapple pizza. Then it's ok to disown them.
So what should you feel if you're a voraphile/macrophile? Should you give up on liking vore or try to stop it? Nope! Honestly, you should accept it as part of yourself, and who you are. Not use it as something to beat yourself up for or for feeling that you're different. We've all been there, trust me, I've beaten myself up so many times, and practically so has every voraphile too. This is one thing we all share in common. We understand how it feels, like you're alone, especially if no-one else around you in real life is into it, or even knows what vore or macrophilia is. It becomes a burden because you feel you can't tell anyone and at the same time wish you could find someone, anyone normal to accept you for being you. And on top of that, other things like religion, morality, having mental health problems, being LGBT, or family and friends finding out... can weigh deeply on you.
So the best thing to do if you feel ashamed? Is to work on finding self acceptance of yourself. Because beating yourself up will not help you or anyone else. What makes you happy, is not up to someone else nor should it ever be. You don't exist to simply be miserable, and no-one has the right to make you feel unhappy except yourself. So as long as your kinks are not hurting anyone else or using them, why should it matter?

But I still feel like a weirdo...
That's alright! It can take awhile for people to accept it's just part of them, and it's completely ok to be into vore!
Some people may feel like something's wrong with them still, but that doesn't mean you have a new form of mental disorders or anything. Sure, it's something that feels taboo especially thinking about how your average person would see it. But the thing is there are a lot of people you wouldn't expect that are into macrophilia and vorarephila, and it's a lot more common than you'd think!
People of all nationalities and professions are into it. Teachers, doctors, office workers, cosplayers, game developers etc! All those professions are of people I've known from experience or online. There's even expos you can go to such as SizeCon and meet up with like-minded people too. Everyone in the world has different interests and kinks, and some of us even find those kinks more arousing than sex. But not snuggles, NOTHING beats snuggles.
We're just ordinary people, and it's pure fantasy! One of my friends beats herself up because she feels horrible at times that she want's to gobble up tiny little people. Yet she'd never do that in real life! ...I hope... Erm, actually I think I should start being a better friend to her to make sure now! But seriously, she is one of the most kind hearted, and strongest willed people I've ever known who really likes to help others. Honestly not being weird, is boring.
Should you tell anyone you're into Vore?
Anyone can be into Giantess or Vore kinks.
The answer to this varies person to person.
My personal opinion is: No. Because no-one else needs to know, except your partner.
Only your immediate partner or therapist should really ever have the need to know. Family and friends do not need to, and have no need to know at all. Think of the end result you're after. It doesn't really accomplish anything except for feeling a little bit of acceptance, but that is ONLY if it went well. By telling others, you're putting yourself at risk, and risk losing friends or family. Not everyone has the same mindset, or will think the same way you are ("If they love me then they'll understand"). My opinion is based from A LOT of experience, being in the community for over 20 years, seeing what happened to others, and hearing experiences friends have been through too.
It's completely understandable that a lot of voraphiles have an overwhelming urge at times to tell anyone and everyone what they're into. Finding acceptance for it means the world to them because it's a secret eating away at them for their whole life. You could actually compare it to someone LGBT+ who felt they've had to hide it for years, and why some felt they had no support or acceptance. It can be absolutely maddening that you can't tell anyone in real life because you're terrified of what can happen and how you'll be seen. Once it's out there, there's no going back. Personally I have never seen a therapist or felt the need to tell anyone about vore. But I have friends around the world who have been to them, and discussed both giantess and vore kinks. For some they felt it really helps, and others not so much. Therapists don't need to be into vore to understand it, as these kinks are generally treated the same as other sex addictions from what I've heard. Therapists are there to help you and with your feelings, not judge you. So if you're really struggling, try reaching out to one and see how it goes.
For those with partners, it can be really hard telling them because you've been with them for years. But you love them so much that you don't want to lose them either for being thought of as 'weird'.
Personally, I've told various friends and half of them take it fine and even joke with you about it or tease you from then on. The other half sadly, and even those I've known for a decade with vivid imaginations, have taken it less well and we no longer talk. It also ended up with me becoming a talking point for them to others and it snowballed from there. From what I've heard from friends and seen from other people online who have shared their experiences, it's varied similarly. Some may have had nothing but all their friends supporting them and teasing too. While others have been disowned by their family entirely, and a lot of it was because it conflicted with their religion. When a female opens up about it, it's generally been seen as a positive thing and accepted. When a male talks about it... well... not so much. You are talking about your sexuality after all. That is not something just anyone would want to know about. It sucks, I know. But hey, you've got the rest of the community to talk to who have been in the same position!
When it comes to your relationship, personally I would say by all means tell your partner because it is something very sexual. You don't have to, but from my experience and hearing from others who finally told their partners. It's worked out really well, but only you know your partner, not me. Your partner should be there to support you in life, while you're supporting them. Sex is always better with someone you truly truly love. Just make sure you explain it fully to your love, and start slow. One of the most important things, is to make sure you tell them not to search online for what it is. Be the one to explain it to them so they understand it better or there is a very high chance you will regret it. Hopefully the resources on this page can help them understand it better too, but be there with them when they read it. Start explaining with smaller cuter things first (especially if you're into deeper stuff like full tour etc) so as to not scare them completely and give them the wrong image. Then you can gauge how they take it or if they even like it, and continue from there.
I lost my fiancé of 4 years because I didn't think that she would want to be more loveful and understand it better, and she googled vore. The sole reason I'm active in the community is because of what happened, and this is why I created this site, and to try make a better community. So no-one else would have to go through the same agony I still have to this day. There are a lot of images and comments that will paint an entirely different picture of you if you don't warn them not to search it up. Even if they come across this site first, if they don't know fully what you're into and why. It can get mistranslated for them, and that can be worse than telling them you're into vore in the first place!
It is important to remember if you want to tell friends and family. You're telling someone what you're into and it's sexual, and sexual in a way that they do not understand one bit. And sex is usually a private thing for people too.
I know some will disagree with my opinion in only telling a partner or therapist. And that they've had really positive experiences from telling their friends who also became quite supportive of it. But it is important to remember the nature of topic at hand, and that there is always a risk that you will end up having memories that you regret really badly. However if you're comfortable telling friends who you are sure will be supportive, then by all means go for it. Not everyone wants a partner, or has someone to talk to about it after all!
If Vore is more of a turn on than sex for you
If Vore turns you on more than sex, you're not alone.
A recent poll on Aryion (one of the biggest and oldest Voraphile sites) had over 1600 users answering a poll question about if Vore turned them on more than sex. The results showed that for nearly half of those Voraphiles, these kinks are as sexual or even more sexual than sex itself. Especially for women.
So why would so many people find it so arousing? Well, it could've arisen from years and years of viewing Vore content (like porn), or feeling sex is not as interesting, intense or as in depth as Vore can be. After all, if you can vividly imagine being in a giant stomach or vagina, that's pretty intense! On top of that, not everyone likes sex either.
However, if you are affected by this, be aware that it can (and usually will) make your partner feel lesser, unworthy, and unloved. Especially if you've told them about Vore. Because they may start thinking or noticing that you want vore all the time while not understanding your obsession. And because you don't like sex or they can't help get you off, it may upset them a lot. You must share loving experiences and memories with your partner, and that includes sexual. Some people can have a sexless relationship, but not everyone. It's important to know their needs and for you to address them too. Your relationship will not last if you do not compromise for your lover.
Relationships work both ways. Love your partner for who they are, and not just for wanting sexual activity. Court them every single day and give them a reason to want to love you. Not give them a reason to want to be away from you, or to look at someone else.
I'm actually affected on this topic. Friends used to think I'm gay because I don't perv at anybody, and because I never bothered dating (Tomboy gamers weren't as common back then). I was even told off for looking at motorcycles the way I should be looking at women. One of my previous partners I met online in my very early 20's accepted vore and would also roleplay a lot for me in it. However when we finally got together in person it turned out that she was a very big sex addict and in the end it didn't last very long. She treated vore like a 'phase' and thought that she could turn me 'normal' again. And sex doesn't do the same as what snuggles and vore does for me.
I wish I had a partner into Vore!
Voraphiles are not as rare as you would think. And a lot of
non-Voraphile partners are accepting and even get into it!
Ha! Who wouldn't! The thing is that because everyone else does too, it actually does create a problem in real life that not everyone sees. Mostly only females within our community would, because of the insane amount of sexual harassment and messages they get (as shown earlier and on the Community Etiquette page). And because of this, the community massively appears skewed towards being nearly all male and that no females are really into Vore or Macrophilia. A lot of guys also roleplay 24/7 as female OC's or giantesses which doesn't help the outlook either nor inspire a lot of trust (not kink shaming!). And while Males do make up the majority of Voraphiles and Macrophiles, especially as prey. There are actually quite a lot of women too that just never interact with anyone and only seek the content that they're after which is usually not super sexual and niche.
If you don't believe that, then think of it this way: If you get dozens of messages every single day treating you like a sex object, thinking you want sex, trying to be cute but forcing roleplay, not understanding that you just want to be you, and that you don't care to gratify anyone else with your kink (besides partner). Why would you ever want to interact or talk to anybody? People get messages simply for having a female username or picture even though they've never talked at all! It's basically the same thing in online gaming. And only an idiot would say "well you can just block them". No. No-one should have to put up with it in the first place.
On top of that, there are a lot of people in the community where vore is very private for them (I'm one of them!) and usually only ever talk about or share with their partner. As these kinks are extremely private, we generally don't want to share some thoughts about it, or to someone not of our preferred gender. It's no different from sex for us and is a very intimate and loveful thing to only share with a partner or close friend. Because of this, it makes it look like there are even less people in the community!
So while many of us would love to meet other voraphiles or macrophiles, ultimately trying to find one in real life to fall in love with and grow old together is not a good option. And that's because your relationship should not be based on sexual intent. Even if that sexual kink is the only way to turn you on. Your relationship should be based about why you love your partner, and trying to court them every single day and make them know they're loved and cared for. And while it's certainly possible to find friends, then have it evolve into a relationship online and meet them. It's still a very big chance that it won't work out because of how hard it usually is. Things like people living in different countries or states far away, and when they finally do meet, it usually doesn't work out because the relationship was mostly based on being sexual in the first place. It is not safe to trust everyone you meet online either, there are a ton of cat fishers, scammers, and black mailers online in our community.
But don't worry! It's not all doom and gloom!
The best way to find a partner who's into your kinks, is to actually not look for one who is! Instead find a partner who loves you for you in person. And when you're comfortable enough and think they've got a bit of imagination, then explain and tell them what vore or macrophilia is! Use this webpage and resources as it's also made to help them understand it easier while you're sitting there red faced next to them!
The reason I say this is the best way, is because people being into macrophilia and vore are also not as rare as people think. If you've been around the community for as long as I have (I'm 33 at time of writing), and had the experience and heard others experience of telling their non-Voraphile partners and friends. You'd find a lot of them are very accepting, and can be into it too. If your relationship is special, then they will generally try to help please you with it if it's not their kink and it can go from there! I know, it's daunting, terrifying even. But it's well worth telling them about it. And hey, sometimes they even have a kink they were afraid to tell you, and that works out even better for you both! Maybe they might also be into feet, and that fetish can easily tie into Macrophilia, especially if they love domination. And if they tie into macrophilia, it can also tie into voraphilia too.
It's not easy trying to find a partner for all of us, especially if we beat ourselves up for a kink, or find it hard to socialize with others. But in truth, you find the right partner when you're not looking for them. You find them most easily in places where you have shared interests especially. My ex-fiancé for example, who is still my best friend. I met her in the RuneScape forums of all places back in 2013, and it turned out that she only lived 25 minutes away from me. The reason we are so close is because we're 90% compatible as we shared so much in common (including social anxiety), and even think alike. She found it hot that a guy could beat her in video games, and I found it hot that she would always try to win in joking back when I'm trying to make her giggle. It's boring having a partner who just laughs or says 'lol' and doesn't try to make it a game or make you laugh back. Trust me, you will find the right partner for yourself when you're not looking for them. But you have to at least make an effort to be out there.
Don't ever give up on hope, and if you doubt yourself or put yourself down a lot. We've all been there, and still do it at times too. But if you don't want to give someone a reason to want to be with you, to love you for who you are, and you don't even try to make an effort. Then it will stay that way because your life is how you make it. So stand up straight, find acceptance, and acknowledge your accomplishments! If you feel others have more to offer than you, and that others wouldn't want to be with you because of it. Remember, you're not the only one thinking that! Your future partner may be too! You don't have to like everything about someone to want them, and that goes for you too.
Addiction & trying to quit the kink
Tsumi Yorokobi is one of my main video game characters and a voraphile. She is very kind hearted, but over time became addicted and started finding excuses to not feel bad about eating those smaller & poorer than her.
Unfortunately vore can be a crippling addiction, no different from sex and porn. If left untreated, it can consume you and make life hell. Especially if you still beat yourself up for liking the kink. Any addiction is hard to admit to, but it's the first step to doing something about it. Lots of Voraphiles and Macrophiles still struggle with addiction to their kinks. It's something that most of us will have gotten into at a young age after all.
If you have a partner, it's especially important to acknowledge if you feel you're addicted. Because it will affect your relationship with them, and they can feel that they're not good enough because you're looking at Vore instead of their advances or body. Media of Vore is essentially porn for most of us, and if your partner is not ok with you looking at porn then they will not be ok with you looking at Vore. Nor will they if you're asking or hinting at it constantly.
Like any addiction, you shouldn't try to quit it completely and instantly. That won't help because it's extremely likely you'll get withdrawal and go back to it for wanting every little bit of comfort you can get. If you have a therapist, they can help you with overcoming addiction too. If you're someone who's feeling very lonely, and sending messages constantly to randoms, trying to illicit roleplay or sexual responses. You're probably addicted and need to do something about it. Others shouldn't have to suffer for other peoples actions. Because the kink gave your mind a reward for thinking about it, it's what makes it so hard to quit because it was so subconscious and habit. With the right resources and planning you can recover from it.
The first step, is come to terms and admit that you have an addiction. This can also help you fully realize how bad it is. You can do this by writing about it. Such as how often are you thinking of the kink, looking it up, how long has the obsession gone on for, how you feel about it, how your partner feels etc. Writing or saying things out sinks in more than just thinking about it. And that can help change your mindset subconsciously and make it easier to overcome. Think about what the end result is if you continue, and what you stand to lose. We're human, and nearly everyone tells themselves excuses to make something wrong feel right, or not to feel bad about it. In overcoming addictions, guilt and justification can usually get in the way and this is why it's important to write things and lay it all out.
Second is to distract your mind slowly and surely away from anything related to the kink. For instance, if it pops in your head and you have a partner, instead do something else like go and kiss or cuddle them. If you don't have a partner, then do something that can become a habit. You could twirl a pen or a fidget spinner, maybe playing a quick video game match even. If that doesn't help, force yourself to try something mundane like washing the dishes or cleaning the house. The key is to stop your mind thinking entirely on the kink, and slowly ween it off with those habits and distractions. Be aware medications can also affect your moods such as if you're taking something for depression. And you should also get rid of anything that can make you think on the kink. So yep, sorry, but you're going to need to completely delete or lock away on an external hard drive that special little folder that you hide from everybody else! Because it simply existing and knowing it's there, is going to keep you going back to it regularly.
You will get stressed, and it's normal to turn back to the addiction to help relieve it a bit. But as long as you keep at distracting your mind, or finding another way to relieve the stress such as being affectionate to a partner (who in turn will elevate you too and wonder why are you suddenly being so loveful), you'll be able to overcome it in time. If you're in depression and loneliness, try doing an activity that can get a bit of touch for you. Such as getting a Thai massage or seeing a cuddle therapist (they exist!). I've tried hypnosis before for my Social Anxiety and as long as you go in with an open mind I found it to be really helpful and elevate my mood a lot too. Old work colleagues have also told me how their partners tried everything to quit addictions like smoking or drinking, and they've actually been able to stop on the spot because the hypnotherapist was really good.
If your partner is the one who told you that you're obsessed with the kink, perhaps you might not have realized it. If you've been pushy for them to give you some vore roleplay back and it's why they're letting you know they feel you're obsessed. Then just be straight up honest with them and ask for their help with it. They can help out by giving you something else to focus on whenever you feel the need for kink material. For instance get them to kiss or hug you so you can focus on them instead whenever the addiction feelings come about.
Remember, lots of us have had this become an addiction at some point in time. We've been there, it's hard we know, but we've always overcome it. And you can too!
On an ending note
This page was designed with a lot of things in mind. First and foremost, it is meant to show up as one of the friendliest and most helpful pages on Giantess and Vore kinks online; while not being overly or strictly technical. One thing about our community is that while most people are highly intelligent, smart, and logical. A lot of people unfortunately also lack emotional and social skills because they are too logical or technical. For instance a lot of the feedback I originally received for this page completely overlooked what this page was made for and why. People were more upset their favourite type of vore wasn't mentioned, and that giantess vore was the example. But here's the thing. You can't just throw concepts that non-voraphiles or newcomers won't understand, or who may think of it as too weird or gross to them. This is why Giantess Vore was chosen as the main example for this page, so people would keep reading and not instantly leave halfway with the completely wrong idea about everything.
I know there will be a few voraphiles who disagree with me on what's on this page, especially on small technicalities. But you need to remember that every single Voraphile is different. There is no catch-all article available, and this page is aimed at the vast majority while also including as many others as possible. A lot of us were into this kink before we even knew what sex was. And I bet there will most likely be under age people skipping the R18 warning for visiting this site (like we did), so it's important to educate them too.
For the above reasons. Everything was made in mind with the core focus to help the younger generation and to help non-voraphiles and partners understand Voraphilia better for what it actually is, in a better light, and in a way that's easy to understand. That is why there are some light hearted jokes included, some personal experiences to share, and a few things omitted. In our day, we didn't have anyone or anything to help us understand, let alone comfort us. Unfortunately all we really had are overly sexualized things, cringe comments, trolls, etc who do not represent how the vast majority of the community is or feels. We're just normal people at the end of the day, with a bit of a twist in what we love.
If you think I've missed something important, or have something that would be good to add from a social point of view, and not technical. Or have something that may help make our community better. Then feel free to message me on Discord, Patreon, Giantess City, or Aryion. I really hope the info on this page helps a lot of people, especially in being able to accept themselves for who they are.
Because your kink, is not a bad thing!
But unfortunately being tiny is!
