Being a dog who has sex:
Note: this is 18+. If you've come here from the non-nsfw tags, heed this warning.
Vanilla people act like being treated like a dog during sex is the height of kink but like. It's not even kinky for me? I'm just. A dog
So of course my partner treats me like one during sex. I don't suddenly stop being a dog when I have sex-
Like ohhhh, you make your partner call you puppy during sex and tell you where to to put your paws, yeah, because I'm a fucking dog, my parents play fetch with me and call my hands paws. It isn't inherently kinky for me to be a dog, even when I'm a dog having sex.
And sure, I'm technically into puppyplay. But I'm not into it in the sense that I get off on being treated like a dog. I'm into it as shorthand for saying "I'm a dog, and a dom/sub dynamic that acknowledges and affirms that, and engages in kink that is based in me being a dog rather than being human is hot to me."
Like being degraded normally? Sure. That's good. But being degraded by someone who recognises that I'm a dog and makes that part of it? So much better.
I don't get that people can see being a dog as a non-kinky thing (ie most of the alterhuman community) perfectly fine until you have sex and are miraculously still a dog who still likes to be treated as such. My puppyness doesn't go away when I have sex. I'm still a dog all the time. And that includes during sex.
