Free Philosophy: on liquids and orifice

| What I’ve always wondered is: “Where do they get those enormous syringes?”
Hi all,
There’s been a lot going on in life at the moment, so I apologise for not having anything more prepared for you this week. Since I don’t have a post topic ready, I thought I’d just do some free philosophising.
It occurred to me the other night as I was checking through the final draft of one of the Gura Nyuuto doujinshi that I have been translating that sex at its basic level is all about things and their going into orifices. And not only that, it’s about the production of fluid of varying types and consistencies. Now this might seem pretty obvious to you, being the avid erotica-samplers that I’m sure people are that read this blog, but please bear me out…
I made a hypothesis a while ago on my post about the quantification of perversity that many people (including myself) like fetishes for the pure reason that their very inclusion makes the piece more perverse. However, I didn’t really elaborate on how fetishes achieve that and I hope to put forward one of my theories today.
If we take normal sex as an example: in normal vanilla sex – which you hope was the only thing your parents got up to – there is only one thing (T) and one orifice (O). Something the Christian inside you will remind you is as far as you need to go. But only one orifice? Surely life’s more exciting than that! Then we can add the dimension of oral sex which as I shall remind you is a good way of recycling nutrients. Then we have one thing and two orifices. Interest level increased! And then we add anal to bring the number of orifices up to the maximum of three. Well, I say maximum, but we’ll discuss that later.
So how would we increase the excitement now? By increasing the number of penetrating things, of course! Remember, there are substitute phallic shaped objects which might be useful in times of need such as fingers, dildos and even fists. We could up the ante even further by introducing more male (or female) partners into a scene therefore increasing both T and O factors together.
But surely you can’t increase this infinitely – there must be a point where you have to add new ideas to increase your audience interest. This is where the fictional world of eromanga comes in handy, since otherwise unusable orifices become viable. Urethras, nipples and even cervices are not safe when an over-imaginative artist with questionable sexual experience is on the loose.
You might then ask: But surely it is not the total number of things or orifices, but the ratio of one to the other that matters. And I would answer – whatever floats your boat. Personally I would say that it works better with a greater T:O ratio, but some would argue the opposite.
But this isn’t the only factor! What about the fluids I hear you ask! Or pretend to!
We all know that sex is about fluids – the giving and receiving thereof. The only fluid that is acceptable in our paradigmal vanilla relationship would be man-sperm into a woman’s love-oyster. But they are ignoring the whole vista of other fluid producing mechanisms that the body has – What about saliva – that liquid that serves both as a digestive enzyme and a convenient lubricant? And if the woman is capable, the gush of the much-vaunted female ejaculation?
And if we go further into the extreme, there is the subject that eromanga and hentai seems to touch on rather too frequently – enemas and watersports. I wouldn’t be surprised if that was a special service at one of the soapland cosplay cafes in Ikebukuro.
So what was the point of this philosophising? Well, it was so you guys would have something to read and to exorcise a few thoughts that have been running round my head for the last few hours. I’m not saying that this is the only factor which affects the increase of perversity that you get with the more extreme fetishes, but that Thing and Orifice number and Fluid Volume are probably a few of the most important ones.
Hopefully more on-topic philosophy about yuri next time…

First I think that an active T:O ratio should never reach 2:1, I feel that this limit allows for enough activity to happen that it can still seem “natural”.
Also in addition to fluid volume I think that non-voluntary fluid distance is important. The further the away from the orifice a fluid gets due to non-voluntary actions the “hotter” the scene becomes. A classic example would be tears, when they are close to they given the impression of sadness, when flung due to intense sexual activity it implies euphoria. Similar cases can be made for both both male and female ejaculation, saliva, and even urine. Blood is an unique case where the inverse is true, the further away the more violent and brutal the scene becomes. (Yes I am making an assumption that rough scenes are less “hot” then others. In my view the gauge of sexual acts are curved like a horse-shoe with vanilla sex and brutal sex at the end in terms of “hotness” and arousal.) I think an argument could be made that fluids not meant to escape the body follow the inverse rule.

I think Jaden has about the right ratio. And the fluids part is okay, as well. Though there are a few changes I would make. I think the distance of fluids spray is more of a parabolic curve. A certain distance is good, however, if you go too far, then it just gets disgusting and kind of dumb.
Oh, and I hate to say this, but my main computer, running Avast! keeps getting a virus alert in all of your in-site links. They are not coming up on my laptop, but that could be that AVG is not catching it. If this is a false positive, then I’m sorry for having tweeted a few times at you about this. If it’s not, then I will hopefully avoid infection on my laptop, or can remove it.

Soapland cafes in Ikebukuro? Why was I not aware of this? I thought that stuff only happened in Kabukicho! *dashes off*
But yeah, interesting philosophising there. For me, a lot of this changes depending on my mood. Sometimes exaggerated and impossible things really get me going, and sometimes it makes me laugh (or retch, in very extreme circumstances!). Multiple things to an orifice rarely works for me though, especially when we’re talking large phallus-shaped things. Then again, multiple smaller things, such as fingers or thinner tentacles, can work very well. Maybe thickness is something more important to explore than number of objects inserted?
@Patrick: I’ve had the same problem, specifically with Avast. Since in the 3 weeks since I noticed it, no-one else apart from you has mentioned any problems, I think it’s a false positive from Avast. I just turn it off for a while when adding comments, since I have an independent firewall.

Hmm, 1:3. That’s when one thing goes through… ok, I’ll stop there.
- “What I’ve always wondered is: “Where do they get those enormous syringes?” ”
I saw a small selection of syringes in an Akiba sex store (m’s tower) and I’m iirc there were a couple of oversized ones there too. Unfortunately I have no one to practice it on.
One of my favourite ratios is 3:3, or ‘air tight’ as I like to call it.

@SK, well now it’s reporting a blocked site tag, so either someone else reported it, or the latest update to Avast (Came in this morning) fixed the problem. Either way, I’m okay.
@Akakori: That is a good ratio, though I suspect somewhat uncomfortable for the young lady involved.
