I just don't like the inflatee or sweller dieing. it sort of leaves a bad taste in the mouth. Not so bad if it doesn't mention blood like this one between two rivals girls.
But I don't mind if it's suit inflation and the suit pops. I guess the idea of gore after seeing something that arouses me just takes it away.
I'm 50/50 with popping- it depends on how it's done. If it's done in a cartoony style, in which the inflatee pops like rubber, and then regenerates shortly afterwards, I'm fine with that. If it's done in a gory fashion, and/or with a permanent effect, then it just takes the fun out of it.
I think popping is appropriate in stories where limits are being tested (and improved). Also, I like popping as a barrier to the more outrageous inflation, like becoming the size of a planet (don't ask me why, considering this fetish, but hundreds of feet or planet-size doesn't work for me- I just can't picture it). Also, since I sometimes combine my inflation fetish with my bondage fetish, the threat of popping adds some drama (though I'd never do the permanent "you're dead" type stuff- my take on bondage popping is just unenjoyable for the victim.)
i think it cruel looking when they pop becouse u can see there head coming off sometimes
I like popping, I can't really say why, despite there being some link with having a climax. Like anything else fetish related, it isn't easily reasoned why. Best I say is to imagine how you view popping as being similar to how someone who isn't into inflation at all viewing your fetish, and wondering 'why on earth would someone be turned on by that?'
i mean i don't get turned on by its just
it looks wierd but i wouldn't go crazy over it
I can handle popping if it's cartoony enough, much like BellyDemon's stuff. Permanent and gory stuff like FreakinWeirdo's popping art is a bit much, but his non-popping art is superb.
Ive this discussed this so much I dont even have the energy. But what the hell.
First of all, gory inflation is not popping. It is, but when we say popping, we dont mean blood and heads coming off. Thats not what it is about. Theres not that much gory burstings in the first place, at least that I know of. You go into a group like pop-in, and you will not find gore. Thats not what it is about.
But if you are into gore, thats okay.
The object of bursting is not about an infatuation with death, so dont go saying its "sick". Balloons pop. Balloon people should pop too. Its a conclusion, and ending, a release. Thats it. Dont make it what its not.
I think it comes down to what you see inflation as in the first place. If you like it as this sort of orgasmic, pleasurable experience (which is 70 percent of the content in the community. Personally, it turns me off), I guess popping is a no no. It ruins the pleasure. For me, inflation is not like that, so I have no problems with explosive conclusions. If they come back after popping, and the story is not set in a cartoon universe, it makes too little sense to hold my interest. (Sense is used loosely and...senselessly. This fetish makes little sense in the first place lol)
I like it partly because I have a much higher pain threshhold in real life, and (luckily) both me and my gf find it pleasurable to be bitten on the neck and stuff, so this is just a branch of that I guess. Mainly, though, it is to stop somethiing which I don't like, and that is when the person becomes spherical or too large. I like the girl, not the ball she is, that falls into the "balloon" area.
Amen for balloon women! Not balls with woomen heads. lol
Asking about the rage over popping is on par to asking about the rage over hot women. Yes, some guys do group every "attractive" girl as hot, but some guys find girls other don't find attractive to be quite sexy. The variation seems to be even greater with women looking at guys.
That being said, different forms of popping over multiple reasons would be a greater poll. To me, the burst should come in a climatic form... not spontantious. Cartoony, LIQUID pops are great.
Whats a liquid pop?
I call attractive women hot. Playboy models for me arent hot. Most US girls are not hot for me. I go to the mall though, and I go crazy looking at women.
I don't like popping at all. I can't do that to a person, even a fictional one! I can see the point of it being a climax, or orgasm of some type, but ultimately it means death for me.
That proves my point. Some people who think about themselves inflating have a problem with the popping aspect. But, since I have no interest in picturing myself inflating, popping is not an issue for me. Its just the logical next step.
Is like I say: balloons pop. Balloon people should too. ;)
Well to put this thing a bit more on topic as it was asked for poppers to talk not the same old whinning that popping is bad mkay, I suppose I shall share my take on things.I look at popping in a number of ways. A stress reliever during some rps as when you have that annoying snooty inflating person, watching them go bang let's you just take out some of your frustation on the fictional character. Also as Darth said it's the end of inflating, some people can't understand inflation and i can't see the point of neverending inflation. Whoopey your nowbeyond the size of a stadium, noone can properly do much for you rubbing, petting etc because there to small. You can always get bigger but to what point your already a massive sphere that looks fully inflated. To me a pop is needed added as there's very little that can be done with such a highly inflated person. Hmm I suppose another reason I like popping is perhaps abit of a control issue, as that's the ultimate control, controlling if they go boom into scarps or keep on bouncing. Oh and for all you haters of popping out there, stop thinking of it as we're all blood craved lunatics. We're not most poppers prefer a clean person beomes scraps or comeback pop not the gory bloody mess of realism. As well the bloody mess takes away from...the pop.*yawns and wanders back off into the shadows of obscurity*

Wow. I wanted to be reserved about it. lol
But thats the thing. I hate it when people say: "i dont like the inflatee dying" Its not about death. They die, yeah, but who is thinking about death? Or life? Im thinking of a friggin woman blowing up like a balloon!! Its not like I have a thing for realistic morbosity. lol
Anyway, I do like it when they become bigger than a parade balloon. It has a sense of being way out of control of the situation, and being blown up so big there is no way in the context she can free herself. Gives it more of a helplessness feeling. Of course, I wouldnt like her to go on and on forever. Its like being teased over and over without any release. I think thats a good analogy for it.
And yes, popping also means the inflator has complete control ;) Thats a plus
Well, since I am into BDSM, I think my BI fetish goes along with it. I do really enjoy pop because it gives, as friends said before, the idea of total control. I dont see any problem if the ballonie dyes, it just fiction.
On other hand, I do really enjoy deflation, so you can keep teh deflated human to inflate again.
I'd like to answer the poll but I'm in that 50/50 camp too. I need an "on the fence" category.
I like the threat of popping. I like the danger element, the loss of control element. But I often find myself having trouble resolving the icky parts that many non-poppers balk at in an otherwise straight-up fantasy.
I have seen several ways of people trying to write around it, from magic to rubber shreds to "she woke up and felt totally normal." Ultimately popping winds up equalling death, and I don't dig that. It's a logical, natural release to most inflation fantasies, but more often than not, I find it grisly or I find stories where it's used in a grisly fashion.
JH-12 is still a favorite and it involves popping. But the final scene is left up to the imagination. That works for me, because the reader takes it as far as they want it to go.
The thing is, Ive only come across one gory popping story, and its outside the community. All popping Ive found here is not what people make it to be.

Seek ye the Yahoo group called "pop-girls" and you'll understand some of what I'm basing my opinions on. Pneumaticchick is a very talented artist, using excellent reference material...but she likes downright ghoulish endings and graphic scenes portrayed. That's just PC's style.
Of course, this is where I tend to go into Photoshop and crop the images to just the stuff that I like, and save it to my hard drive with no intent of distributing the "edited" version. So I'm not saying the artist should stop. I'm merely saying that the artist goes further than I personally prefer.
Yeah Ive seen her stuff. Generally, I dont like it, but she has a few inflation stuff, even one of her popping endings that have appealed to me. Only a few though.
"Its not about death. They die, yeah, but who is thinking about death?"
The logic short-circuited my brain. Yeah, it is about death, the character go boom, end. To me, that's dead. No matter if she inflated and exploded, or if she was shot in the head. I do like popping, but as part of inflation. Most things I see around are psychopats (many that start as normal people) that uses inflation just as a way to explode someone.
I think he meant that yeah their dead but no-one actually gets off on the fact that they're dead.
Similar (in a sexier way) to how Digdug (or any other game where you have to kill monsters) wasn't X-rated because it involved killing and death.
Funny how many games has deaths, but are not X-rated :p
Yeah, thats exactly how I mean. They cant say "well, they person then dies, so Im not into that", because its not about death. YES! I LOVE a psyco female inflator popping other women (sadly and ironically somehow, there is only a handful of those stories, dont know why), but the appeal is not on that they "die". Is that they explode. Yes, if you rationalize it, they die, but Im not getting off on death.
sigh... and I'm not telling that people are in into about deaths... but it HAS deaths in it. A lot of people talks about character's deaths as if it were nothing. Makes the story sounds like a bad b-movie. When there's a good story, it's okay, but most stories dont give a good reason, other than being horror-like stories.

*BUMP*
Glad you liked some of it, i.e. the bits you crop :) And thanks for your kind words about my artistic talents..not that I've done much in a few months, for various life upheaval reasons (no, I didn't go off "bang").
Maybe it is ghoulish, I dunno (though I only like "clean" poppings, no messy stuff..the burst ladies are always just balloons full of air). For me I do get a kick out of the popping,as you can tell..an inflation without it is a bit lacking for me(well, total deflation is cool too). As for why...I really dunno, it has always been a thing of mine..I like to fantasise about being popped too!
I understand that it's not to everyone's taste, in fact that's mainly why I started that group, cos there wasn't enough popping about.
And for those who do like it, I hope to get some new artwork in the group soon.
Oh, its good you didnt pop. lol
I like how you draw them poofed up. The deflated balloong thing is not my thing, but even I can appreciate it as creative.
And Dwarf, its been months, but I know you dont mean death like being a morbose infatuation. I was just defending the notion that most people hear (or read ^^) one likes popping, and they associate it with gore. It probably normal they do, but its also normal for me to be bothered by it.
I like popping... but only when it involves suits. The idea of gore and the such or the death of the inflatee, I find unappealing.
For me, popping is CRITICAL. And its appeal depends on the kind of situation you're discussing.
For example, I fantasize about myself inflating till I pop. It's not that I'm suicidal--far from it. But if I found a way to actually, literally inflate like a balloon, I know I'd always want to get just a bit bigger... and just a bit bigger, etc. Eventually, since all things come to an end, I'd have to pop. I'd just accept it as my fate, destiny, kismet, karma. Whatever.
There's also the humiliation factor in self-inflating till one explodes, i.e., the frog and the ox story, my Gospel because the humiliation of the frog is so absolute and total.
Now, the popping of other people... Yeah. There's definitely a "snuff" factor involved. I won't lie. I don't dwell on the aftermath--the funerals, the lawsuits over property, etc.--but the fact that one person has the absolute control of the other, that the balloon person is totally helpless, and is under a very real threat of total destruction in a humiliating way... it's maddeningly hot.
Oh, and then there's the orgasmic thing. Pop/ejaculate. But that goes without saying.

Thats what I like about popping. The idea of ending someone and make them feel embarrassed. Usually when I draw a strip that'll involve popping, the person wearing the suit is often naked or having only their underwear on beneath the suit. When they pop, his/her inflater will see and enjoy the sight of them bare, leaving the inflatee ashamed and humiliated. That's when I enjoy popping. ^_^

Yes! Thats exactly what inflation is to me. Glad to see you and me have that in common. Cool.
I like the way you put it there Alec... the way you say that while there is a small amount of snuff, it's not getting a kick out of death. That it's more about the inflater having such power over the inflatee that she can even destroy her completely...
I like to think of the former inflatee as 'gone' rather than 'dead'. Death doesn't turn me on, but I don't need to disguise it by saying the inflatee went to another dimension, or could be reassembled later.
Disguising its not even a factor. The inflator just had her/his way, and thats it. I like how Alec put it with self-inflation fantasies: just because you fantasize about inflating and popping, doesnt mean you are suicidal.
Gotta have a "BOOOOM" 'cos there's no more room.
It's a control thing for me as well. For the inflater, it is about the ulitmate power and decision-making; for self-inflating, it is the complete lack of control and the need to someway, somehow, eliminate all that tension...the slow building towards the threat of the end of being.
For the act itself, I can tolerate anything except messy/gory stuff. But an explosion of rubber shards or even a relatively clean fiery one (like "Essence of Justice" or my stories) is just fine...but NO bodily fluids!!
Well i for one love the idea of being inflated until i explode. Its all sexual for me. To have someone else completely in control. Them getting off on what they are doing.....mmmmmm.
Thats my fantasy.. FANTASY. So i can do as i wish.
Too each his/her own. I like the idea of a woman inflating huge, round like a balloon, the idea of everything being under tension, the pressure, the possibility of exploding, but not actually happening.
Actually footpumpgirl, us that want to pop you say, its what we wish lol
very in control my sweet darth_clone19.
Well,I hadnt even looked at this thread because my flip reaction is,/ Ooo..nah dont like the popping/
Except,as I should do every time,I took a look at what everybody had to say.
My attitude about it is that on the one hand its fine because it goes right along with the whole fantasy inflation world that these characters inhabit in our collective minds.
Like,in Warner Bros.,Wil E. Coyote gets crushed into an accordion shape,but you know that he's somehow going to be back to his reg. self.
Artists do things to their characters that may be deadly,but they have to come back again normal so they can start another premise again.
On the other hand,personally I just like to see a character floating off to somewhere,OR have the character just reach a breaking point and they expel the air out someway.Sending them flying off or whatever.Humiliation abounds in either situation.
These ways still rid the other char.of the problem they had fairly well;and then the inflated can return from wherever they went to at some point.
Personally,I just like to have an order to things.Inflation for X reason then resolve or leave it unended,for future possibilities.
No abrupt explosion or something.Unless its like a small leak,and they slowly deflate.
I do like the idea of little internal pops and the like,to portray the swelling pressure.
Fluid engorgement is a fun way because you can use leaking out of the appropriate parts as a way to keep the char. in transition for awhile but not bursting.
Ah,just my "two cents"
Personally, I'm not in to popping. I like to see the woman (or myself) deflate. It's part of the fun! It's also more embarrassing, having to deal with what happened to you.
I like for the person to not be totally deflated, so they end up fat afterwards. I'm also into stretch marks.
The only time I've used popping in a sexual fetish story is revenge scenarios, where I'm really angry with a woman and want to get revenge.
If someone else were into popping, I'd have no problem with it, as long as there was no gore.
Even when I used popping for revenge, it was like a balloon bursting.
NEssex, you should read my stories on DA! I think you would love em.
I like popping under those conditions too. Although, the oops factor of popping is also appealing to me "uh oh, I got to big to reach the valve!!! OOPS" lol
I like how you draw them poofed up. The deflated balloong thing is not my thing, but even I can appreciate it as creative.
It's my favourite. I mean deflation to null.
What you mean?
I mean deflation. Not from a huge sphere to norms shapes, but from normality to a small thin humanshaped deflated balloon.
Again inflatee is in control of that one who pulled the plug an let the air out. Though I like to imagine myself being deflated by a girl.
You know what... deflation does have a neat appeal to it. The idea of hooking a vacuum to a person month instead of a air pump or such just seems... well... arousing. :roll:
I guess I got some pics to draw. ^___^

Thats how I like it too. If its gory then its just sick

What I like is a cartoony bang, then the dust clears and there is the girl, dazed but other wise fine. This adds a end to the inflation, but doesn't cause any death. :P
one thing I hate but have always wondered why others like is what is the big deal with popping people? I have never liked it at all but I have seen people online who can't seem to get enough of it so i would like to ask why do people who like it, like it? can some people please tell me so that I can understand. & no flaming please! I just wanna learn why people love what I hate.
