I dunno. I am on year like 25 of being pretty heavily into this fetish and it seems quite sustainable. There's basically infinite amounts of material. Hell there's even a porn star sharing videos of her pushing a baby out of her vagina.

Pretty sure OP was speaking about more real world experiences regarding the fetish. Not porn. Like if you into feet, and find someone who is okay with that then you got your feet fix for a substantial period. But pregnancy(especially late term) only lasts weeks and usually has attached "baggage"

I did sorta bring it up earlier, but the idea of prosthetic/faux bellies are becoming more and more common. Not the ones that are basically yoga balls, but the more realistic ones that with the right paint applied can mimic an actual belly.

(June 8, 2023, 6:12 pm)tomostrife Thats why I consider this less of a fetish and more of a fantasy. Lets be honest, most of us really appreciate the final weeks of pregnancy. The early months arent really exciting, so your looking at like what? A month of fulfilling pregnancy experience. For a trade of potentially 18 years of responsibility. Not only that but like half of the pregnancies Ive seen on instagram or TikTok arent really impressive. Lots of girls dont get very big or they gain lots of weight which changes the whole look. A small percentage end up looking like a sexy fit girl with a big swollen belly which seems to be the most popular. Obviously theres guys here that arent as picky but for most of us, we desire the beautiful, slim girl with huge belly, and frankly it just doesnt happen *that* often(we cant all marry Tammy Hembrows).

This seems overly pessimistic to me.  I'm not attacking you with this post, I'm genuinely curious.  I'm like, "Hmm, maybe this guy is right..." especially because if your post represents the "too pessimistic view," I would (until recently maybe) have argued the "too optimistic view," which reads something like, "I think pregnancy makes almost any woman a lot sexier by a mile."

As I'm writing this, I realized it might be useful to make a distinction: do you find pregnancy erotic in general or are looks of the utmost importance?  Also --- and this comes out later in the post --- what you wrote doesn't necessarily apply only to our fetish, the same arguments could be leveled at sex in general.  You probably wouldn't say "Most girls aren't that hot so you're looking at maybe one or two fulfilling sex experiences in your life" --- I would say thinking that way about women and dating would be pretty bad for your mental health actually (but I'm not a professional).  And yet that is an argument you made about the pregnancy fetish.  What do you think about that analogy?

The place I would start the conversation is here: Do you have a wife/girlfriend/etc.?  Because you say, "Only a small percentage are the sexy fit pregnant Insta girl..." as though that means our real-life experience of the fetish is trivial.  Yet you could say the same thing about sex in general: "Only a small percentage are the sexy fit Insta girl," pregnant or not.  I regularly come across women who have way better boobs than my wife --- that doesn't mean I can't enjoy sex with my wife (or I don't enjoy her boobs specifically), or I would say that sex is "only a fantasy" (as in your post), or there is no "fulfilling sex experience" (or no "fulfilling boob play" specifically) in my real life.

The next thing that sticks out to me: are you really that pessimistic about pregnant women's looks?  First, you say half of Instagram/TikTok pregnancies "aren't really impressive."  It could be semantics, but hear this: I spend way too much time on Instagram now, scrolling through the recommendations I get under "Search," and (if we're just looking at 9 months pregnant) I will be thrilled if my wife ends up looking like almost any of them when she's 9 months pregnant. (FWIW, my wife is wonderful and sexy, and not to take anything away from her, but she's not an Instagram fitness influencer type. All I'm saying is your post surprises me because what I see on Insta is almost invariably sexier than what I am comfortable expecting from life. To be clear, "comfortable expecting from life" means having reasonable expectations so I'm not depressed by disappointment later on, which brings us back to the mental health underpinnings of this. I remind myself now and then that I should not expect my wife to look pregnant like the ladies on Instagram do, just like you would probably tell your friends or family not to expect the girls they date to look like the girls on Instagram in general.)  Or maybe it's cognitive bias and I just don't notice how many disappointing pregnancies there are on Insta?  I'm not sure, that's part of why I find your post interesting.

Similarly, in real life: the women I notice that are pregnant --- and let's say they're visibly heavily pregnant to be specific --- I would fuck 'em all if they wanted me to (and if my wife wouldn't object...). OK, not all of them, but almost all of them.  That's not how I feel about non-pregnant women, though. Most non-pregnant women I pay no attention to (unless they're really hot, pregnant or not)... until they're pregnant, in which case I almost always become very interested. You might say I have no standards (and I don't want to sound defensive here, again I think it's worth talking about), but I am arguing that I *do* have standards, it's just "being pregnant" goes a long way in my calculations. Or, to put it another way, I think "being pregnant" is really hot, period. I am, after all, *attracted to pregnant women,* aren't you?

So that leads me to ask a question: don't you think most women look better pregnant?  Like say it's 0 months pregnant versus 9 months.  If they had a slight paunch before, that might have been a turn-off, but I find overweight women usually look way better pregnant --- the pregnant belly hides the fatness a bit...!  I have literally been thinking for years that 9 months of pregnancy does great things for chubby chicks...!

Here's an example of pregnancy content I like, even though it's not "Tammy Hembrow": hxxps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NbcVSbtM8eM&list=PLVxGBnsNkv7R6mMOZ3gWlf8rznCoc1TTR&index=34

That is a sexy belly, if you ask me.  Put it this way: if that woman were in a bikini on the beach 9 months before that video --- when she wasn't pregnant --- my guess is she wouldn't interest me at all.  But if I saw her at that stage of pregnancy on the beach in a bikini, I wouldn't have been able to look away, and, going back to the point about how chubby girls look better with a pregnant belly, I think she would have looked smoking hot in a bikini, at that stage of pregnancy, if I had come across her at a beach in real life.

But there's the thing.  It's not just her body...!  I just find her videos (in fact, her whole situation) super erotic!  First, I do think that is a pretty good belly --- and it would be on anyone.  But she's also freaking 43 years old...!  She could be just another soccer mom, but instead she's out here getting ready to pop one out.  There's something hot about that situationally, not just in terms of her looks.  So I'm saying I think the whole is greater than the sum of its parts: I find those videos super hot because she's *very* pregnant (and got a nice belly if you ask me) *and* also because she's super womanly and sexy in her own way.  (And there's other things, too, like she's kind of over-sharing and probably only imagines women watching her videos.  That means a boundary is arguably being crossed when I, as a man, watch her videos, and this makes watching her videos feel naughty in a fun way...)

Maybe a bit more concretely: when I bump into a pregnant woman in an elevator, let's say, who's only six months pregnant so definitely not as big as what I actually "fap" to, but still noticeably big, I still "get a (huge) rise" out of it because it's partly the *knowledge* that she's pregnant --- and all that comes with that --- that arouses me, it's not just about her looks.  (And, in her specific case, the fact that she is otherwise "plain Jane" makes it that much more fun! She's not supposed to be that sexual somehow, but, with that belly, it's hard to argue that she's not sexual.)  And really, most women in public places, just seeing them visibly heavily pregnant is super distracting to me --- because it's the "role" they play (they're a baby maker! or a career woman who hates being so "fat"! or a young woman who's nervous about what's coming! etc.) that intrigues me to no end.  (Indeed, this is why some people, myself included, are able to enjoy "roleplaying.") 

I should also probably add that I think it's more exciting for me to see pregnant women in real life --- I "get butterflies" in my stomach when I'm close to a heavily pregnant woman.  It's not strictly better than watching porn (or looking at Insta) per se, but there's definitely something about "the real thing" (even if no sex or nudity is involved or she's not a "stunner") that can't be replicated by porn and that keeps me doing embarrassing stupid things in public (within reason).  And, to tie it back to the girlfriends/wives/etc. part, that is something to look forward to in our relationships (but, yes, no matter how you look at it, it's only a limited number of months) as opposed to just our fantasies. Hence that's a big part of why I find your post so pessimistic.

So that's my spiel.

Yeah sorry Mark Twain, I'm not reading all of that

This made me laugh out loud, props man.

I think one problem with this thread is that a fair amount of posts here are trying to bring objectivity to a topic that is inherently subjective.

Sex workers or sugar babies.

That seems to be the only way to get it with both parties leaving the table with what they want. I mean, how else are you supposed to get casual sex with third trimester preggos? What are the chances of finding pregnant women who are willing to have casual sex knowing damn well they're only desired for their bellies?

I'm inclined to think that women who get knocked up nowadays will inevitably find out about this fetish or community. I highly doubt this fetish is still unknown, and I'm pretty sure most pregnant women who "flaunt" their bellies are somewhat aware of it at this point. And at the end of the day, if they do any kind of cam work, they should know their views will be gone when their belly is gone.

The finite time of pregnancy to me is one of the most thrilling things.  Like I don't know how many people I have had crushes on or have been attracted to or had one night stands where I have wished they would get pregnant and then it happens and it's incredible.  I am not going to have kids, so there's a limit to what i will experience but this has been plenty good for me for years.
