Summer editionPrevious thread >>8204809Thread question: Where did your love of mermaids come from? Was it a singular event or experience, something more gradual and subtle, or a mix of both?
Mine was as follows>be me, 4 or 5 years old>at library>skimming through a book on mythological creatures for whatever reason>get to page on mermaids>see picrel>immediately stunned and mesmerized>in my eyes, the most beautiful thing I had ever seen>eventually put away the book after standing there for who knows how long>extremely flustered for the rest of the time there and the ride back>thankfully my mom didn't notice>from there I secretly tried to learn as much as I could about mermaids>I'd have fantasies about them>I imagined my female classmates in school as secretly mermaids>whenever my female cousins would come over to swim in our pool, I'd always want them to pretend to be mermaids and I me a shark>they always agreed, mainly because they thought it was fun>years go by and the fascination grows stronger>hit puberty and teenage years and learn what a fetish is>realize I've had it since childhood>commit myself even more to consuming any piece of media that had mermaids>rest is historyI'm still amazed all it took was one illustration to get me where I am today. I do hope I eventually get a partner who also shares the same level of fetishism I do, but I probably have a better chance of winning the lottery lmao
Mermaid peach was the greatest thing nintendo could ever do for me, I'd wanted her to be real for yearsI busted so many nuts the night she got leaked
thick tail made for hugging and squeezing
I wonder if that webbedfingers guy on pixiv lurks these threads, he'd love picrel
This concludes my dump. That was a pain in the ass to get through, but I wanted this new thread to have a strong start
>>8379301I wish I could pay for the creator to make more scenes
>>8379214I used to read greek myths a lot when I was young. It probably sowed the seeds of my tf fetish, but there were also harpies and sirens and other beings that were part human female and part something else. Likely the love of mermaids grew from that.
Reminder from /co/ that calling mermaids "sushi" to her face tends to enrage them
For the previous thread did anyone else's image counter hit 301? Because i didnt see any deleted posts
>>8381419I have it bookmarked, and you're right. The image count jumped to 301 from something like 280. Even though no new images were posted aside from last night's dump

>>8379260>be me, 4 or 5 years old>at library>skimming through a book on mythological creatures for whatever reasonHey annon, out of curiosity did you get a copy of the book?I mean considering it awaken something important in you I would imagine you went out of your way to get a copy of what awaken it and keep it for memory/nostalgia sakeā¦(Would be legendary if you stole the book from the library, not any random copy but THE ONE that began your mermaid kink)
>>8402443Unfortunately, I haven't been able to find what book it was. I only rediscovered that image a few years ago while I was browsing mermaid art.Given just how many books about "mythological creatures" exist already, trying to pin down that specific one would be like a needle in a haystack. Really, the book itself is inconsequential; it's the illustration that's the important part. I imagine if the book had used an illustration or statue of Atargatis, I probably wouldn't browse these boards lol
