Description Rant on Inflation

Inflationists.

Listen, I know you guys take a lot of shit. And I don’t want to step on anyone’s likes or dislikes. …So here we go.

I’m just here to address a couple of things about Inflation that really bug the Hell out of me, especially here on DA. If you don’t like people bashing Inflation or Weight Gain or Blueberry people or whatever the Hell, I suggest you leave, because you probably won’t like what I’m about to say. Especially since this rant involves logic.

Just a list of things about Inflation/Weight Gain/Etc. that are bothering me. These aren’t the only things that disturb me about it, but you get the idea. Starting with:

1. “The concept.” - For those of you who don’t know, the idea and goal behind Inflation and Weight Gain is to get a girl (and sometimes guy, but trust me when I say 99% of the time, it’s a girl) really, really, really, unrealistically huge by many different means. In fact, those different means are the only things that separate Inflation and Weight Gain because otherwise, they’d be the same thing. Inflation often fills someone up with odd things such as water, food (often being force fed to said inflation “victim”, once again, unrealistically), cream, chocolate, berry juice, garbage (Not making that up. Literal Garbage.), air (with a bike pump or helium tank…I’m not fucking kidding), or bullshit magic or science. Weight Gain, on the other hand, is just someone getting really fat in an impossibly quick amount of time. And then there’s Blueberry people, which is pretty much just the act of jerking off to people sharing the same fate Violet Beauregard did on the classic children’s movie “Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory”. I’d call Pedophilia, but that’s a rant for another day.

The processes are rather disturbing in and of themselves. And don’t think I don’t know what the Hell I’m talking about. I have had to thoroughly look through this stuff to get a good understanding of it. And trust me, on this site, it didn’t take long to find any.

I really hate to tell you this folks: The human body does not work like a balloon. Sorry. It just doesn’t. Which leads me onto my next point:

2. “Isn’t this just rape?” - Now, call me crazy, but isn’t the idea of changing one’s physical body through unusual means against someone’s will just for the sake of sexual pleasure and arousal fall under…rape? Last time I checked…it did.

And that’s where it starts getting FUCKED UP. They alter what’s happening to make it seem like the poor girl getting inflated…likes it.

I really don’t know which dimension we’re living in, but if I was a girl and some random jack-off came towards me and inflated me to the size of a Hummer with a  bike pump/force feeding machine/magic-shit pill/etc. against my will, that would kinda fuck up my day. I wouldn’t be happy. I would be pretty fucking miserable. I would literally ask someone to shoot me. It isn’t realistic, sexy, or logical. It’s torture on a level that I can’t even begin to imagine. Not being able to move, breathe, and other necessary activities to that of a living human being is pretty much the same as being…well, dead. As Pearl Jam once put it: “Why go on?”

Also, take this into consideration, inflation/WG in real life would look positively creepy in real life. Don’t believe me? Take a look at these screenshots from the movie “Slither”:

www.headinjurytheater.com/imag… www.headinjurytheater.com/imag…

What you just saw was the aftermath of a woman being filled with alien sperm and being inflated to the size of a gigantic balloon. It’s not a pretty image by any means, but it’s pretty accurate as to what inflation in real life would look like. :shudder:

3. “This was once just a joke.” - Back in the old days of cartoons such as “Tom & Jerry”, the idea of something getting inflated was just used purely as a visual joke and nothing else, since it didn’t last long and was purely comical. Now, since it’s the goal of a sexual fetish, it’s rather creepy.

And by “rather” creepy, I mean “I’m gonna go kill myself, I can’t believe this exists” creepy.

4. “It’s fiction.” - People who go out against inflation/weight gain/expansion of any kind/etc. or even simply criticize it run into this shit all the time. “It’s fiction. It’s not actually hurting them.”

Folks, trust me when I say this: Even fiction has lines it shouldn’t cross. I can make a 40 page story of Nazis burning and decapitating an entire city and its population. Doesn’t make it a good thing.

Oh yeah, I went there.

And to be honest, I’d rather be burned and decapitated than inflated. That’s may just be, but the way I see it, at least I won’t explode. Which brings me to another point:

5. “Popping”

Good God, why?

How anyone can get off on this is beyond me. Jesus Christ on a pogo stick.

6. “Inflation Fanart” - People, I have to say this. Taking characters that from other franchises that don’t belong to you, and making them HUGE, is a bit much. You can make your own characters and inflate the flying fuck out of them. As long as I don’t find them, I don’t mind. Doesn’t affect me.

However, I can’t tell you how frustrating it is to type one of my favorite characters names from one of my favorite video games/movies/anime/tv show/etc. and find hordes of unwanted fetish smut of them. I don’t care if Robin from Teen Titans can’t get a boner if he doesn’t see Starfire and Raven blown up to the size of Semis and licking each other’s fat rolls. I just don’t want to see it.

Ever.

EVER.

And with DA’s search engine, that’s damn near impossible. In fact, let’s have a little experiment: Go to the search engine right now and type in “Rouge.” I am of course talking about Rouge the Bat from the Sonic the Hedgehog video game series. You won’t go 2 pages without finding something fetish related. Wanna up the ante? Go the search bar again and type in “Haruko.” Obviously, Haruko from the FLCL anime. FIRST FRIGGIN’ RESULT.

7. “durrhurr, what’s a mature mark?” - This isn’t particularly exclusive towards inflationists or WG lovers, or whatever. This kinda goes out to anyone who makes anything sexual, really. If you’re making a piece of fetish art, MARK IT MATURE. Just for the people’s sake. I may not see some well done pieces of art, but as long as it keeps me from seeing gigantic, redundant pieces of protoplasm that people wank off too, I think it’s a small price to pay.

8. “It’s not art. Deal with it.” - I reeeeeeeeeally hate to break it to you guys, but Inflation/Weight Gain/Fat/Blueberry/Vore/ExtremeBE/Pregnancy/etc. is not art. itspr0n, lol. But seriously though, it’s only purpose is to fulfill a sexual fetish and hold no other real relevance than that. Rather simple. I’m pretty sure *Mangapunksai addressed this before in this piece:

mangapunksai.deviantart.com/ar… But I digress.

And stop pretending that it is art. It’s not.

9. “I don’t hate fat people.” - And that’s true. I don’t. I have nothing against fat people. Never have, never will. If a person is a bit chubby or flabby, I don’t care. If a person is bigger than my family’s van, we got a problem. I don’t quite get where people get this from. You say one cross thing about inflation/WG and suddenly it’s: “OMG, YOU HATE FAT PEOPLE U NAZI I KILL U INUR SLEEP1!!!11?)!”

I don’t. I’ve had plenty of friends who are fat. They were/are nice people. I don’t care.

And finally, 10. “MY ADVICE”



Turn off the computer.

Unplug it.

Step away from it.

Walk outside.

I often see that most inflation artists just dedicate all their time and energy to this site and upload nothing more than Inflation/WG smut. For God’s sake people, do something else. I’m also tired of the fact that most fetishists upload nothing more than work that fulfills their fetish and it only gets praise from its fans with empty comments that mean nothing.

And I know that just because I typed this long rant about inflation and WG doesn’t mean that people will stop making it. And I know they’ll keep making it. I understand that. I know that just because I say I don’t like it, doesn’t mean it’ll stop. You’ll keep making it. And I’m not gonna stop you. By all means, if one guy has a right to draw a big breasted anime chick who is hugging/smothering a nerdy anime guy to death, then you have the right to draw whatever the Hell you please.

However, if your stuff is involved in a fetish, do me a favor, would you please? Keep it off DA. Go somewhere else with it. Somewhere where inflation/WG/vore/whatever is welcomed and in fact, encouraged. If you want to find a place where other people draw/post/talk about pictures that share the same mental disease you do, by all means, be my guest. I got no problems with that.

I’m sure many of you inflationists are good guys/girls. But for the sake of my sanity, keep your bizarre balloon pics off my DA. kthnxbye.

Well, judging by your favorites section and signature, you seem like someone who is more into pregnancy than anything. Which I don't particularly get either, but hey. As far as the F-bombs go, it could have been much worse. And thank you for complimenting me on what I did.

I'm not asking you to change your views. This rant wasn't intended to attack inflationists/WG lovers/etc. or make them angry. I just like to type down what I'm feeling. And I will post other stuff about this, other crap like politics, celebrity stupidity, etc. I'm actually surprised you got a kick out of this, to be honest.

I never said you don't have a life. I'm just saying, it's just rather common for people who make inflation, make it...a lot. Almost obsessively. But you seem like a good person. And like I put in the rant, most inflationists seem like good people, just that I personally think that their views on this subject are just a bit flawed and seems a bit illogical. But I digress.

I'm personally happy you found interest in my rant, and didn't seem offended by it. Because, well, that wasn't what it was made for. And I know that most inflationists/WG lovers tend to take this the wrong way. It's not like thatl, I just really, really love the 1st amendment.

Also, thank you kindly for the favorite. ^_^

You're welcome. I CAN be civil when I feel like it, I'm working on "feeling like it" more often. (on the internet I usually cuss the lips off my face )

Well, that's good to know. I'm glad to see that you're not afraid to speak your mind. Stupid political correctness, making people too scared to speak when they should and say what they mean! I surprised you...heh, that's funny, but I'm not sure why...oh wells.

Yeah, that usually seems to be the case. But those guys are the exception, not exactly the rule. Same goes for those guys who play Dungeons and Dragons but can't tell the game and the real world apart.

Well, when you grow up in a house where your stepdad is an ardent liberal/democrat, and "Lies And The Lying Liars Who Tell Them" is your favorite comedy book (that is non-fiction) you kind of learn to pick out the jokes in people's speeches. Although, sometimes the joke that they're making is on them...

Oh, I have no problem with the first amendment. Except for those slime-excreting, moronic idiots who go around puking up the whole "the Kikes/Niggers/Fags are the enemies of the human race!" spiel, and then hide behind the 1st amendment when common decency comes knockin'. I can't stand those guys. But you seem to be quite intelligent about how to use the 1st amendment, so you're ok.

You're welcome, no problem. Make some more speeches, you'll probably get some more fav's.

If you honestly can't use the search engine on this site to find what you want, then one or both of the following holds true:

1) you are too damn lazy to google how to filter out the words you don't like.

2) you are mentally ill and are searching for images that would normally contain inflation by default.

If you expect me to believe that you search for an image an find inordinate amounts of "inflation art" and are unable to find "normal" images, then you are discrediting your entire argument. Why would I believe that someone so lazy has the proper mental capacity to find what he wants with something as complicated as a web-based search engine...?

MechanicalDoom In reply to Jaybeedee [2008-10-08 02:05:46 +0000 UTC]

Oh no, don't misunderstand me. I DO find what I look for. It's just that...I find MANY things I never intended on looking for while I'm searching. It's rather unnerving how much there is anyway.

And searching for fanart of a character from a franchise of video games/tv shows/anime/movies/etc. that I happen to like in an art site's search engine with no intention of finding fetish crap whatsoever, somehow makes me mentally ill?

I'm not following your logic there, buddy. :/

Even though it's Inflation/WG, it's still smut. It just always manages to slip under DA's rules and regulations. And besides, people have as much right to make Inflation/WG pics as much as I have a right to post a rant and criticism about said smut.

Never said you couldn't, I just don't think that porn/smut/wank material/whatever you wish to call it should be put on an art site.

However, since I know they'll post whatever they want on this site, since they do have that right, just as much as I do posting a rant about it. I do think that they should, at the very least, mark it mature and put a huge "WARNING!!! THIS IS A FETISH-RELATED PICUTRE!!! DON'T LOOK IF YOU DON'T WANT YOUR MIND RAPED!!!" in the Artists' comments box.

"The human body does not work like a balloon. Sorry. It just doesn’t."

Oh wow REALLY? Wow, I would have never known that if not for your self righteous and condescending attitude.

You don't like my fetish? Fine, then stay away from it, and don't give me that crap about "How its everywhere and you can't avoid it". I can't remember the last time a WG piece was up on the front page. And unless you're searching specifically for it, odds are you wont find it.

Personally, I find artworks that Pair Violet and Syndrome from the incredibles repulsive, but you don't see me posting huge tirades on it.

So get over yourself. What makes you think you're the grand marshal of whats appropriate and whats inappropriate on DA?

Oh boy, the butthurt begins.

"You don't like my fetish? Fine, then stay away from it, and don't give me that crap about "How its everywhere and you can't avoid it". I can't remember the last time a WG piece was up on the front page. And unless you're searching specifically for it, odds are you won't find it."

Denial. I'm sorry but when searching for something, especially a specific character from an existing franchise, it IS damn near impossible, not to come across some fetish related artwork on this site. It's just the truth.

"Personally, I find artworks that Pair Violet and Syndrome from the incredibles repulsive, but you don't see me posting huge tirades on it."

...OK...

"So get over yourself. What makes you think you're the grand marshal of whats appropriate and whats inappropriate on DA?"

Did I say I was grand marshal of any kind? I'm just typing down a criticism. I also happened to write this down while I was pissed off, so there.

And getting over myself? I just typed this while I was bored. Just count yourself lucky I'm not going out and just attacking and bashing your fetish. This was about as nice as I could be with this thing, and it could have been WAY worse than what you're making it out to be.

Sorry you don't like inflation. Sorry you somehow come across it when you search.

But I'm not leaving any time soon I'm afraid either though if I could I would make it so you couldn't see any more inflation without forcing work and people off.

Oh and thanks for putting those hideous pictures there. See that example you posted had her forced into that situation, she didn't like it, and also there's freaking blood smeared all over her face. Gross gross gross. I was eating.

Anyway I come across stuff I dislike. Like pictures of people wanting to screw robots, rotting zombies, or just women wearing fish nets. I hate fish nets they're gross. But I don't tell them to get off I just ignore it the best I can.

Course child prono is where I start alerting people but I haven't seen any nor have I been looking for it. But anyway I hope I never come across that.

Well, thank you for wanting to try and do something with the Search engine, if you could. Even though that's out of the power of both of us.

Well, the pictures were from a horror movie. But it's still a realistic depiction of what inflation would look like IRL.

I know there's worse stuff out there. I'll get to that soon enough. Although that doesn't really justify doing inflation either. Still pretty disturbing from what I can see. :/

Also most of us are well aware that the female body cannot hold galleons and galleons of liquid without dying/bursting then dying. Really now it's called make believe.

And I admit there are some more darker artists out there that add a rape appeal to their work but I am one that dislikes it and make it much more consent giving and enjoyable. I do not approve of rape.

And I don't get the popping either. Some do it cartoony like where they're okay five seconds later but god I hate the gorey ones.

Y'know what I don't get? Mud wrestling. WTF is wrong with people who like that crap? Mud baths are okay but throwing two women or two dudes or whatever into a mud bath where they wrestle around is just gross. Yuck.

Uniquename02 In reply to Roger64 [2008-10-10 04:41:44 +0000 UTC]

I don't like the gore, OR the return 5 seconds later popping. I like a story where it just ends with BANG, no messy description or aftermath. Or a picture where it's just implied so I can clean it up with my mind.

Hehheh. I can't explain the apeal of popping either. I don't doubt it's creepy as well, though.

BTW, I did read the rant in full, and yeah, I see how you'd be annoyed with the search issue. If I weren't an inflation fan, I'd be annoyed too.

MechanicalDoom In reply to Roger64 [2008-10-07 19:52:51 +0000 UTC]

Make believe is all fine and well, but I don't really see how it ties into a fetish and all. What's the point of a fetish if the goal of said fetish can never be achieved in real life? It just doesn't make sense to me.

It's not the fact that people "add" rape aspects to their pieces, I said I think that the entire idea kinda centers around rape, dark or not.

Pardon if I sound blunt but differnt people get off on differnt things. You don't like it? Then simply do not look at it.
As for 'your dA', the only part of dA you have control over is your Profile, Gallery, Favorites, Shop, Prints, etc.
dA is a community for all who draw, like to see drawings, like to write, like to read said writings, the list goes on, I'm not going to list them here.
I respect your opinion but I might suggest rephrasing some of your rant.

And yes, we DO have/ should use the mature content button for items such as this. That much I will agree on.

Thank you for your time and have a nice day.

"You don't like it? Then simply do not look at it."

Funny that, since I before stated in my rant that that's damn near impossible. And I truly wasn't joking when I said that. I don't look for Inflation pictures, I find them while searching for pictures completely unrelated to inflation. Not my fault for stumbling upon it.

Jeez, when I said "My DA", I was joking. You know, kinda like "GTFO of MY internetz plzkthxbye." Don't take that literally. Which should have been emphasized with "kthxbye" followed by the "My DA" comment/joke.

I'm happy that you respect my opinion, but as far as rephrasing, I won't do that. Because like I stated in a previous comment, this was about as nice as I can get while typing this rant. It could have been a whole lot worse.

And thank you for agreeing with me on the Mature Content use. At least we have SOME common ground.

xxnoxxlifexx In reply to MechanicalDoom [2008-10-07 02:40:42 +0000 UTC]

Hmm, well the issue with the search feature is, well you saw, how you put in key words to help people find your art work.

For example, let's say you searched for... kittens.
Some one who did say, a cat girl inflation/expansion may have put 'kitten' in their keywords for some unknown or known reason.
Thus, you find it.

No real way to solve this one.

Personally, I favor more pregnant expansion vs fat beyond all glory or blue berry looking. Both of those are turn offs for me.

Now I know this full well, I cannot change some of your views just like you can't change some of mind. Not meaning to sound snippy or rude or anything.

Yeah, the search engine sucks like that. But another factor is how abundant it is. I could tolerate it if it wasn't so common as it is. Which leads me again to the other site option, because there are websites designed to have people post inflation/expansion related artwork. Sure, they're probably not as famous as DA, but it's a place you know that you can probably post with others who share your fetish.

I also don't quite get/like pregnancy either, but I REALLY don't want to talk about it right now.

I'm not asking you to change your views, and I'm not wanting you to try and change mine. At least we're on the same plane there.

DA isn't particularly the place for it, like I said in a below comment, but I'm not against them making it. It's what they'll do, and I'll accept that.

The word "Deviant" just means to differ from the norm. Not something sexual. Which is what Inflation/WG is. Also, the fact that it isn't, you know, ART, is another thing.

I believe Mangapunksai put it like this: This isn't a place to upload porn, it's an indie art site.

To stay totally seperate from the rest of the argument, because I just try not to think about these fetishes, can I just say dA is so very not indy anymore. I say it mournfully rather than pedantically; every emo idiot and their little sibling has a deviantart account now though for what exactly because they have no journals or deviations I don't know. And the way it's run has made it about as corperate as it can be. But I won't get into an admin-rant

Not NECESSARILY sexual. I agree, porn should stay at Hustler.com or whatever it is, but there will always be people on the internet who can't draw the line between spank-material and art.

Eh, good point I suppose. Although it should be pretty obvious to someone if something is at the very least hinted as sexual. But I see what you're getting at.

No need to start a fight here. I'm not sure why that seems to be a necessity whenever someone makes a rant like this. :/ Seems weird to me.

Paradur187 In reply to MechanicalDoom [2008-10-08 02:38:31 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, it should be pretty obvious. But in my three years of watching stuff on this site (even before I had an account), I have seen all kinds of laughable doodoo put up. Such as people who fawn over what is basically a Playboy Pinup, saying things like "oh, I just LOVE the shading you did on this!" The mind reels...

I think it might be because in the rant, people usually seem pissed off and/or angry. So I guess that kind of, I dunno, scares people? Or at least puts them on the defensive.

I salute you for putting up with crap on this site for 3 years. I know it's hardly anything compared to some of this site's inhabitants, but that's still something on your part.

But I can't help but feel some of the defenses they put up just comes out of some deep seeded shame. Or maybe they just get butthurt to easily. Who knows?

I don't know, I'm just exercising my writing muscle and stating an issue (not a major one though, mind you) I wanted to talk about. And I try to be funny with it. XP

I don't know either, man.
I hope you make more "rants" soon, that one was a good read.
Oh, and I like to use icons a lot too.

"But for the sake of my sanity, keep your bizarre balloon pics off my DA."

It was a well thought rant, even though i'm a fan of inflation, but you lost me when you said the above words I quoted. No, I don't think so, DA is for everyone, otherwise, if it's YOUR deviant art, why isn't all inflation work banned yet?

If the whole rant you wrote was just a friendly joke, then please ignore this post, and have a good day .

Well, the whole "My DeviantArt" thing was just a joke anyway. Regardless though, I'm not particularly a fan of Inflation, and DA just doesn't seem like the place for it.

This whole thing is a rant and I tried to be as friendly as I could with the whole thing. I just didn't want to go out and bash the crap out of inflationists. It's just criticism.

And like I said in my post before the one you quoted, you seem like a nice person. So I'll leave it at that. But also try and take some of this at heart. Thank you.

Hey guess what it's not just fiction they have women who have actually infated themselves. Guess what else someone actually would like to be inflated too it's not just the guys who have the fetish, you should have looked that up too.

"I’m sure many of you inflationists are good guys/GIRLS. But for the sake of my sanity, keep your bizarre balloon pics off my DA. kthnxbye."

Whoops, did I say that?

Yup.

Reading before talking is awesome.

If you don't like inflation/WG/whatever, why don't you just leave dA instead of bitching about it?

1. Nah. Other than the hordes of porn, I like it here.
2. I dunna know, I was bored and felt like sharing my opinion on the matter.

I understand and respect that you don't like inflation, expansion, WG and all that stuff, but still, there is no need to bash us for the things that we like. It's not like we're monsters or anything, we're just perverts like everyone else. Our perversion is odd, but it's not nearly as bad as some of the stuff that is out there. I think the biggest thing that you're missing about the whole inflation thing is that this is just artwork. Just some damn drawings, and for you to get your panties in a know over something so moronic is well... moronic.

I know there's worse stuff out there. I never said that inflation/WG is the epitome of sick pornographic smut, but that sure as hell doesn't justify it.

And as far as to why I posed this, eh, just freely sharing my opinions on the matter. And there was also this little thing at the beginning of the rant:

I’m just here to address a couple of things about Inflation that really bug the Hell out of me, especially here on DA. If you don’t like people bashing Inflation or Weight Gain or Blueberry people or whatever the Hell, I suggest you leave, because you probably won’t like what I’m about to say. Especially since this rant involves logic.

Man, people don't like to read.

Fuck you, I read the damn disclaimer or whatever you want to call it. You just wanted to complain about something that you disliked because you don't understand the appeal. Trust me, most of the people who have the fetish don't really understand why we like it, we just do, so I in no way expect you to understand it, but for the love of christ, couldn't you just keep your mouth closed on the subject?

Why the Hell should I keep my mouth shut about it? It's my opinion. I'm not gonna keep my mouth shut on this just to keep a few inflationists happy that I'm not criticizing them.

And if you don't like my rant, why are you so bothered with it? Apparently the whole "if you don't like it, don't look at it" policy doesn't apply to inflationists, no matter how much they like to toss it around.

I don't like it because you are basically flaming people on something you don't like. You don't see me flaming you for no adequate reason.

MechanicalDoom In reply to Blue-Skinned-Devil [2008-12-26 19:24:14 +0000 UTC]

I'm not flaming people. I'm criticizing this weird-ass fetish. Never once in my rant did I go out and flame any specific person just for the hell of it.

Also, love how you chose to ignore the hypocrisy of the "if you don't like it, don't look at it" statement.
