Vore

short for “vorphilia” or “vorarephilia”: a fetish in which one fantasizes about being eaten alive or eating another creature alive(sometimes knows as phagophilia). The most kind of vore is “soft vore”, being swallowed or swallowing whole with no bloodshed. There is also common “hard vore” which involves the testing and chewing of flesh. Other types of vore include marcophilia and microphilia, in which one character involved in vore is larger or smaller than normal.

many might associate vore with cannibalism; however, most voraphiles do not favor cannabalism. Vore is an imaginary fetish; that is, it is impossible to preform it in real life in the way most fantasize, unlike most cannibalism.

Also included with vore is sometimes the “furry” community: people who are interested in usually anthromorphic animals (humanized creatures). With animals as characters in vore fantasies, predation is natural and therefore somewhat more realistic.
