List of 400+ Kinks & Tropes
Below is an alphabetized and roughly categorized list every major kink, trope, and sex act used in fiction that I can think of (and I can think of quite a few). It certainly doesn’t have everything, but I’ve never found a more comprehensive list.
This list came about because I wanted to create a survey for my friend group so we could figure out exactly what we each like and dislike in our fiction for the purpose of gift fics, exchanges, and reccing. Is it normal to ask your friends how they feel about felching and mpreg and cannibalism? Probably not, but it sure is fun learning new things about each other and it’s good information to have if you want to write a fic for someone!
To make the list easier to navigate I’ve broken it down into the following sections (note many kinks and tropes could fit in multiple categories but I did my best to group them where I thought they made the most sense):
general sex acts
general sex types and locations
bodily fluids and excretions
body and body modification
clothing
BDSM
pain, torture, and horror
dub-con, non-con, and unhealthy dynamics
alternate universes
misc kinks
misc tropes and genres
Feel free to use this list to create your own surveys or as a reference for writing challenges, drawing inspiration, or whatever you want!
