Hello everyone
I'm not sure how to ask this without sounding offensive. I've seen a few profiles/threads and the like where a straight guy is ok with inflating/being inflated by another guy.
I'm not bothered by this at all considering I'm bi but I wanted to know other peoples opinions, is that normal for straight guys in this fetish?
Again, apologies if I offend anyone
Just means they are confused/won't admit they are at least bi.
That's what I was more inclined to think as well, it's different with girls because there usually more relaxed
As a straight man, no. If you like to be inflated by men, you're gay or at the very least bi.
Hope my expertise on the matter could be of some use :D
Lol XD expertise greatly appreciated
As a gay guy who's chatted with other guys who identify several different ways, I do suspect the guys who claim to be straight who enjoy being inflated are actually closet cases. But, give them the benefit of the doubt as it takes all types to make a world, there might actually be guys who get their rocks off just by the inflation fantasy and don't care if it's a woman or a guy as the other person.
I've also found that the guys who prefer being the inflatee are more likely bi, I mean this site is the last place anyone needs to feel self-conscious
As an asexual, this fetish does not have to be sexual. A straight guy wanting to be inflated by another guy could just be a preference and they have no sexual correlation to the fetish. That being said, if they do find this fetish sexy yet still want to be inflated by another guy, they might be bi...
1. Gay. TOOOOTALLY gay.
2. Actually a fetish, by its very definition, is sexual. An asexual fetish isn't really a thing.
3. Asexual, also not really a thing.
Then it could just be a hobby for them. Not necessarily a fetish if by definition, a fetish is sexual. Also I don't see how asexual can't be a thing either but I might be a bit biased. Would love to hear your reasoning though.
That's a whole other thing that I'm sometimes curious about. People who are into inflation in a non-sexual way and consider it just a hobby. What are they getting out of it if not arousal? I mean it's hardly 'interesting' in the way that most hobbies are. Why do they think sites like this even exist? It's one thing to imagine an inflation situation as just a horror trope or cartoony thing, that's why it exists in mainstream media. It's quite another to spend your time specifically seeking out stories and videos where someone gets inflated.
Yeah it’s odd to thing that people are only entertained by it and not aroused yet they spend so much time looking it up.
I personally find this stuff cute. Like how people watch magical girl animes or watch kid's cartoons. Most of them aren't watching for sexual pleasure. They just find it cute. I will admit that yes, this site is mostly used by those who do find it sexual. But I'd also argue that there are probably a fair bit of people on this site that just finds this kind of stuff cute.
Lmao XD I love this response, blunt and to the point
3. Asexual, also not really a thing.
Like you would know either way. You can't possibly know how someone else experiences their sexuality, any more than you can know about any part of their inner life, so to discount the possibility that they could actually be asexual is closed-minded and unimaginative at best and baselessly cynical at worst.
I was not expecting such a profound response, I like you
And yet, not only 100% accurate but 100% without all the judgement and name calling you needed. I've never claimed to be open-minded, imaginitive or optimistic. I am however, compassionate to those who have such a fragile life that they are easily triggered by not only contrasting opinions, but facts of reality
But since you've brought us there, go fuck yourself sideways princess. :D
Keep it civil. I've had to lock far too many threads recently, and it's getting old.
Well, pooh, you're probably right.
Inflationpurveyor, I apologise. I could blame it on the Dewars, but I was a little spiteful there. I'm not sorry about disagreeing with you, but I am sorry about the way I said it.
A term that I saw come up once was "bellysexual". To some it doesn't matter what gender's sporting the inflated body as long as the individual isn't regarding whatever's really under the hood. Does the defense kind of break down in feasibility if two men are still fawning over each other? Soooorta...?
I brought this up recently before, but because of the gender disproportion in this fetish, the waters tend to get muddied when two males are roleplaying with each other and yet one is playing a female. I credit anyone who has the ability to turn off their knowledge of the fact that they're interacting with someone of the same gender, so they can imitate a heterosexual relationship with personas instead. It's... escapism, no doubt, but doesn't it still benefit both parties?
I feel like this is the sort of reasoning that goes through a guy's head when trying to rationalize being prison gay
But is it at least a fair explanation as to why some individuals act the way they are? I didn't say there wasn't a trace of homosexuality in doing that. It's circumventing the use of the real term so a guy who's not too picky can still entertain himself, regardless of how shallow it is I guess.
The theory I got from somebody is that if you turn an inflatee in the shape of a sphere into a sihlouette, blot out all the physical characteristics of a dude, sometimes that's enough for people. It's the body they're apparently in love with, not the genitalia. It's pretty inexcusable when someone goes on to try to push past the face, the behavior and the mannerisms of a male, however. I think the worst case scenario is when you're told "yeah you're a guy and all, but can you act effeminate to make it easier on me?"
It's the imbalance from so many males and a fewer number of females in the fetish. Naturally there's efforts to tilt everything towards the latter as closely as it can, to just be able to participate -- because females still get the vast majority of the inflation treatment. It's individuals longing to participate.
I don't have enough data to say whether this is normal for inflation fetishists, but that's how paraphilias work sometimes. Fetishes, by definition, involve sexual arousal triggered by something normally considered non-sexual. Thus they aren't always constrained by sexual orientation.
If a straight man specifically wants to inflate or be inflated by another man, then I'd say he's probably actually gay/bi. But if his desire for inflation is so strong that he just doesn't care about the sex of the inflator/inflatee, then he's probably just a straight guy with a very strong inflation fetish.
I recall chatting with a woman who, although straight, was turned on by the sight of a person, any person inflating. The inflation scene in The Prisoner of Azkaban caught her by surprise, and she became so overwhelmingly aroused that she had to leave the theater.
Even though she's heterosexual and Aunt Marge is a woman (and not even a particularly attractive one at that), her inflation fetish overrode her sexual aversion to women. And since she had no interest in uninflated women, I assume her response is the result of having an inflation fetish and not some unacknowledged sexual desire for women.
I agree with you there on not caring about the sex of the inflator or inflatee. Myself being a straight male into being inflated, I have come to just get over what the gender of the other person is and focus on what is going on. I also find sexuality more diverse than just straight, gay or bi. I feel it is more like the Kinsey scale, and there are variations to how far along a person is in their sexuality.
I feel like the other gender should not matter, as long as all parties involved are open and honest with what they want and like, then everyone will come out enjoying the situation.
I guess I never really considered the actual inflation to be enough for some people. I like to enjoy the persons body during/after being inflated, I don't know if inflation on it's own is quite enough to be satisfied
Interesting in a good way?
Seems plausible to me. Just like enjoying scenes of animals inflating - an old Looney Tunes showing an inflated cow, Rolo the elephant inflating in the old Genesis game "Rolo to the Rescue", that one episode where the Ninja Turtles inflate - doesn't mean you're into animals.
And to your point about the woman who was aroused by another woman inflating, I've known a few women over the years who were 100% straight but watched only lesbian porn. They said it was because (and I'm poorly paraphrasing here) they felt like watching a woman pleasure another woman appealed to their feminine sensibilities of sex better than straight porn could. Makes sense to me, since the female approach to sex can be more nuanced than the wham-bam-thank-you-ma'am male approach.
fact: its not gay if you say "no homo" afterward
who are you sir
This is adorable XD
"ALL OF THE HOMO!!!"
lol references...
As a straight guy, I can give you my opinion on the subject. I prefer being inflated by or in the company of a women. However, I'm not opposed to being inflated by a guy. When it comes to fantasizing about myself inflating, I get turned on at the fact that it's forced and/or making me helpless. When it comes to inflating others, I prefer inflating women. I'm ok with inflating a guy if I roleplay as a female, and the other person is aware and accepting of this. In the past, I've even roleplayed with another guy, yet we both were female characters. If the roleplaying or fantasy gets sexual, I get nothing from guy on guy. Same thing with non-fetish stuff. I'm attracted to women. Men do nothing for me. I've told bi/gay men before, I'm all for them inflating me, but I'm not into and get nothing from male on male sexual stuff. I'm not being judgemental, just open and honest on what I like.
I gotta say that gender doesnt matter much to me either. I myself am straight, bu tit's more so th ekink rather then sexual preference. Yes, I have a preference for girls, but I dont mind either way. If its me inflating, or inflating someone else, both gender's work. Especially when it comes to your own friends, I find lol
Seems everyone has different ideas which I'm totally kwl with
Well I don't normally post or comment, I feel like I can relate to this. I can agree that an attraction to inflation or even gaining for that matter can be so strong that it doesn't matter who the partner is. I am straight and I have fantasies of being inflated and being fattened up. I will always prefer women do be the inflator and the inflatee. But I have had rp sessions with guys as well. For me its all about the fantasy and the arousal from that.
I also have found for sure that I am straight. I once had a feeding session with a gay man from around my area. He took me back to his place and he fed me and rubbed my belly. I was still exploring my sexuality and I thought maybe I was bi-sexual. Yet as he rubbed my belly, which I will always be aroused by, I felt nothing. I was not aroused, I had no attraction to it like I thought I would, and I just didn't have any feelings to move forward with making any move beyond that. So I unfortunately had to let him off easily after that. So being with that experience, I knew from that moment on that I could never be sexually into men.
So you can have an attraction to a kink that is strong that you can share it with all parties but still be the sexual orientation that you are. Sometimes also the fantasy is more attractive then the reality. But it doesn't mean you can't enjoy it as much as you can.
Looketh no further, I have found the very incarnation of a closet in thread form.
There's no need to be so much in denial, everyone, the male inflation wonderland has its doors open for eeeeeeverybody. Eeeeeeveryone. Fall in, and SUCCUMB-
meh
I'm a straight guy and I don't care who is being inflated for the most part. I'm not gay either, I have no interest in sleeping with another male but I'll watch him inflate.
I posted this twice somehow by mistake and don't know how to delete one >_<
Time for a nice, healthy dose of CHAOS
