[ID: Stylized art of tanned hands pulling open and reaching inside a fish on a desaturated green background. To the left is the title and instructions and on the right a notation. On the left:
How To Gut
Step One
Give a lick to the glassy eyes, a stroke to the limp body
Step Three
Wash the gore away
Step Four
Wonder if there is grace in gouging, in the opening of flesh seams*
On the right:
Relax!
You're doing this thing a favor! How lovely to be emptied out! To be clean! Really, to be transformed! To be used for another's satiation! How lovely to be gutted! How lovely! lovely! lovely!

We as a society are ready for art of trans men that doesn't exclusively look like Roman statues with top surgery scars
It's a giant deer that inhabits the world of "乾坤の鷲-Kenkon no washi-" This character is particularly my favorite.
"乾坤の鷲-Kenkon no washi-" is a fictional world primarily modeled after Central Eurasia, and within it, this creature is revered as a sacred beast by the minority groups living in the cold northern regions (similar to the border between Russia and Mongolia in the real world).
Despite its gentle nature, it often goes unnoticed by jinka, who perceive humans similarly to small animals. It mainly feeds on moss, bark, and the like, but it eats a variety of things such as mushrooms, fish, and carrion.
btw in case anyone was wondering the precise anatomy of my identities is not a matter that concerns you no matter what. hope this doesn't help. hope this drives you into obsessive tendencies
see i think what people get caught up in is going "oh this and that are fetish art......hey did you know x thing is a fetish...pretty crazy right.....this piece of art is actually a fetish for the artist........" and like. see the problem is thinking that devalues the art. i don't think something being a fetish or sexual in nature or whatever actually detracts from any meaning or emotional weight something could have. i don't think "horny" is a worthless or meaningless emotion and i don't see why exploring it in art is any different from "sadness" or "happiness" or "anger". does that make sense? im just sayin we should examine why we view sexuality as inherently detracting/meaning less in art than other things
this blew up so lightning round:
"as long as they're not posting it publicly"/"well its not always horny dont assume its horny": you're missing the point, this is a post about how horny is an emotion of equal artistic value to any other and if people want to post their fetish art i think that's fine
"i was raised christian/came from a christian background and this was a hard thing i had to learn but so important"/"the idea of sexual feelings being less worthy of showing is christian": i'm proud of you you're doing great. also that's true
"it's more interesting actually"/"fetish art ends up being better bc people put a lot more focus into their work when they're obsessed with it": you're right
"stop it with the horny jail thing": you're also right
