About Me
So who am I?
If you are new to the website and the furry fandom itself - I identify under the name of my online persona/character Typhek The Rex. If you have however ventured fourth from sites such as Fur Affinity (FA) then my real life name is Adam. It is common to find that most people in the furry fandom use their fantasy and create characters to represent themselves online, and in my case - the real Typhek is a male from England.
My profession and career is actually within the gaming industry, due to the nature of my work I can not talk about the specific details of ongoing projects. However, I am a graduate BA Games Art and Design student and outside of work, I have been growing and developing my own art for the past few years. I am experienced in Photoshop, Zbrush, Unity and Maya - with little knowledge of Source Film Maker (SFM) animation. My interest in art began when I was 19 - roughly the age I joined the furry fandom.
Although I commission, write and draw some strange art (for those of you whom live outside the bubble of the fandom), I am calm and a chill dude to talk to. Despite the persona of a world-destroying tyrannosaur! If you see me around then give me a wave.

What is my real life name?
My real life name is Adam. When I first began in the fandom - or more specifically FA. I was not aware of the nature of the site, nor was I entirely aware what a furry was or the extent of using a username affiliated with said character. However for those of you in the fandom, I prefer to go by the name of Typhek.
In terms of my surname or any other information - I would rather keep my private life and furry life separate. Not that I would like to cause offence, but I care about my identity and privacy, and this includes not giving out information regarding where I live either. Thus, the only name I go by within the fandom is Typhek (The Rex).

Why do I keep my identity private?
The reason why I like to keep my real life identity a secret is because of the nature of my alias and how much of it is connected to unusual or disturbing themes - that most people would find weird or disturbing to even begin understanding it. This is why I keep them private - I would not like employers to find this associated with my real life identity.

What is the furry fandom?
Firstly, there is no specific or concrete definition for what a furry is. The furry fandom offers a huge and diverse experience depending on you or me.
According to Rob Staeger, author of 'Invasion of the furries' (July 26th, 2001);
"The furry fandom is a subculture interested in fictional anthropomorphic animal characters with human personalities and characteristics." (Staeger, 2001)
The issue with such definitions is that in comparison to the fandom, it is so simple and diverse that both furries and non-furs often have difficulty identifying whether they are a furry because there is no set definition. However, this quote does give context because the extent and nature of the interest by the individual of the furry fandom can vary - thus we create our own definitions of the furry fandom.
Since my time in the fandom, there is no one set way to define 'What a furry is', but here are a few categories from a broad spectrum of what a 'furry' could engage in and identify through;
A large majority of furries will be casual furs, while some unaware non-furs could technically be classed as a furry because of their own enjoyment of anthropomorphic characters. Casual furs are the main category of furs you will meet, some tend to attend 'furmeets' while some keep to online interactions. In the end, like the definition of a 'furry', there is no fine line and definition - meaning we create our own perceptions of a furry; Including casual furs - who are mostly aware of their furry interest.

- Casual Furs - Casual furs are those who enjoy the idea of anthropomorphism or cartoon animals. Casuals enjoy the concept of anthropomorphic characters enjoyable through fun, cuteness and enjoy the fantasy and nature of creating their own furry character. It is like Riproarrex said,

- Role-Playing - Anthropomorphic animals created by furries are known as 'Fursonas', these Fursonas can be used to role-play on forums, instant-message's and real life. A variety of species both realistic and mythological are used in role-playing. In real life Role-Playing can take place by either 'petting', 'hugging' and 'scritching'. These are common between furs who intend social gatherings (furmeets or furcons) and as a part of role-playing, some furs can use 'Fursuits' or furry parts to sometimes enhance the interaction and experience
- Fursuits/Fursuiters - Fursuits are suits made specifically for furries with the intention to role-play. These fursuits are often accurately measured to the persons height and width to avoid tight-cramps or the suit ripping. Fursuiters is a term used for furries who role-play and/or use fursuits. Individuals who use fursuits enjoy role-playing as their character and becoming the character - sometimes (although rarely) engaging in 'murrsuiting', a term used for fursuiters who engage in sex while using their fursuit. This can also be described as a furry fetish.
What are furry fetishes?
In my opinion, a furry fetish can be described as a sexual attraction towards anthropomorphic animals. This can be from a variety of things such as characters from popular Disney movies like 'Lilo and Stich' or other series/movies such as 'Teenage mutant ninja turtles' and Godzilla. As a whole though, any cartoon or media that depicts anthropomorphism to animals can be depicted in furry fetishes.
The distinction between a fetish and furry fetish is the sexual attraction towards anthropomorphic animals rather than humans.
In example, A furry fetish could be to turn Godzilla into an anthropomorphic animal, but also add a foot fetish along with it.
Another important side note - it is difficult to set a clear definition for a furry fetish because the term furry is ambiguous.

Is furry fetishes and bestiality the same thing?
No. A vast majority of furries will disagree, with most non-furs not understanding the key differences between furry fetishes and bestiality(Zoophilia) . In my experience and opinion, while I can not speak for the entire fandom, the crucial difference is the anthropomorphic nature in which fictional animals can be given a element of fantasy and spark imagination.
Anthropomorphism does not exist as we know it in the real world, these furry fetishes are a sexual attraction/interest in the fictional fantasies of humanistic animals. Furry characters are more akin to human intelligence, anatomy and personality than they are their feral counterparts. The act of having sex with a furry character is better understood as a human who has sex with a counter-part with different characteristics of another animal, or in another word, humanity.
Inevitably, furry fetishes are entirely fictional unlike bestiality. Furry characters are figments of the imagination and majority of furs will disassociate themselves with bestiality. However, it is undeniable that some will experience attraction towards both furry characters and experience similar feelings towards zoophilia as well - even if they have no intention of acting such fantasy and fiction to reality. Like the term of 'Furry' - individuals must draw their own line that they decide for themselves, but in general furry fetishes and bestiality should not be thought in the same way.

What fetishes do I have?
The content of my site covers a broad range of fetishes in a furry context that interests me. Each fetish may involve one or more elements, meaning that other people may enjoy them for different reasons because of their personal preferences.

- Macro (macrophilia) - The attraction towards giant creatures. Macros/Macro Furs typically love giant monsters and creatures such as the likes of Godzilla. Often the definition of 'macro' suggests creatures that are of a certain size, but the term can also be conceived within other 'size difference' fantasies, such as being shrunk (otherwise known as 'micro'). The macro fetish is one of the most common in the fandom and shares multiple other fetishes such as being eaten by a giant (vore) or being stepped on and crushed.
- Foot Fetish (Podophilia) - In terms of furry fetishes, the foot fetish is the attraction towards animal paws or feet. This can be the paws of a anthropomorphic canine or reptile. A paw 'fetish' is the equivalent of a human foot fetish and the interest in paws can often vary between individuals. The interest in feet can be defined to a simple attraction or curiosity towards them, such as worshipping them; Other ways of worshipping and interacting with feet can be from sniffing, licking, kissing the feet, sucking on the toes or foot jobs. The foot fetish can also be found in other fetishes such as macro, and often macros can extend their foot fetish by focusing their art on their feet and even involve stomping and crushing.
- Crush Fetish - The crush fetish is a more rarer niche furry fetish in comparison to the foot fetish. Crush is often associated with macros because of the attraction towards being crushed or trampled. Those who enjoy the crush fetish like to watch objects or creatures being crushed, and to those with submissive tendencies love to be crushed themselves. There is two ways to define the crush fetish;
- Soft Crush - This can be treading/trampling on a creature causing no harm, Soft crush can typically be thought of the more general/friendlier version of hard crush as it depicts no gore, blood or death. Often macro furs will depict characters being stomped on in a paper-flat style to avoid suggesting death. Soft crush is usually more sensual between the victim and perpetrator.
- Hard Crush - Hard Crush is the hardcore version of crush, often hard crush depicts the harmful or killing of live creatures by crushing them or trampling them into blood/gore. More details are usually involved with Hard Crush and are a lot more graphic than soft crush.
- Vore (Vorarephilia)- Vore is a fetish I don't personally identify with as much but decided to include here. The vore fetish is the fantasy attraction of being chewed/swallowed and or digested. Like Crush, it has both soft and hard vore.
- Soft Vore - Soft vore will depict the animal or fur being devoured in a way that is not harmful.
- Hard Vore depicts the harm or killing of a live creature by chewing them or digesting them. Digestion is also another less pronounced fetish that plays well with vore.
- Anal/Cock Vore - As vore is a term used for ingestion, common parts of furs/animals are used for the ingestion such as Anal and Cock Vore. Which involves the victim being ingested through these other body parts rather than the mouth itself.
- Yiff - Yiff is simply a term that depicts sexual interaction between furry characters. Often the term Yiff will be different for each furry but in general either all sexual conduct is considered Yiff or some of it. Yiff can also be interpreted as sexual intercourse/penetration and a few might even view it as sex in a fursuit.
What is so attractive about feet?
This is one of those questions many people struggle to answer yet alone furs, over the course of many years in the furry fandom I have often contemplated myself why I am so attracted towards feet. While my experience is not further cemented with science, I can not speak for everyone and thus draw upon my own conclusions for this subject.
As a basic starting point, we have already established the definition of a foot fetish/paw fetish in relation to furries. That while we merely find ourselves attracted to feet, it can be seen within the 'dom' (dominant) and 'sub' (submissive) scenarios. In the fandom many people will be considered either a dom or a submissive, with a few opting to be a 'switch' (switching from sub-dom). This is often based on both sexual preference and social preference. A dominant personality will posses absolute authority, power and control over the submissive person. Whereas the submissive person tends to sacrifices these needs in favour of pleasing the dom.
Personally, I identify as a dominant personality. I can not really speak from experience for the submissive sexual preference simply because my mind-set has always been around domination. However, submissive roles can be from the primal instinct of worshipping a being greater than yourself.
As a social species, humans have always craved well-being, security and socialising by developing relationships. It is often the case where we find ourselves attracted to others who perceive as strong, independent and that over our course of time in that relationship with the person we instinctively develop security and safety. As societies and humans develop, our relationships and feelings become more complex and as such we develop instincts to seek security and safety by worshipping strong individuals.

As societies and humans develop, our relationships and feelings become more complex and as such we develop instincts to seek security and safety by worshipping strong individuals.
The perception of a submissive towards a dominant usually involves the attraction to muscular physique, personality and in regards to furs, the species. In the furry fandom, predatory creatures tend to be dominant creatures, such as lions, dragons and my character the t-rex. While submissive types of furs will typically play prey such as rabbits and deer. It is important to note that not all furry characters are created or chosen for sexual reasons or preferences. Some furs tend to choose species they identify characteristics and personalities with the most rather than preferences.
The attraction of being a dominant is the ideology of taking control and power from your servant, prey or slave. Often or not dominant characters or 'doms' will either enslave a fur and have them do their bidding. My enjoyment comes from the imagination of breaking my servant down and having absolute control and authority over them, to me - the satisfaction of having a slave lick my soles as I sit on my throne is very amusing. Better yet, I very much enjoy being worshipped like a god or a king because this cements my position of authority over my slaves, it is more fundamentally complex but over time I will update this section once I've pondered upon it more in a way I can better articulate it.
As being a dom, one of the best ways to ensure such loyalty and satisfaction is through the foot fetish, hence why the fetish has dominant and submissive roles to it. As a dom I very much enjoy slaves worshipping the soles and toes. It is the experience of being worshipped and having power over them that makes it so enjoyable. This goes back to the development of human society and thinking, most often or not throughout history feet carry various meanings. It is often perceived to be unclean or otherwise low to be 'at someone elses feet' or to be 'underfoot' - this particularly applies to submissives or subordination.
This goes onto the dom, it is the dom perception to force his foot fetish upon the prey/slave regardless of their intentions of thought. The submissive always hails you as a strong, independent figure and from their servitude already give their being to you. The whole idea of a dominant fur is to enforce your authority and make your servant subordinate. The dom commands respect and attraction from the submissive who in turn admire and become attracted to that strength and control you have over them. If the feet are unclean, dirty or smelly this further solidifies the authority, power and control you have over submissive. This is a further admission on their half for your respect as you reign over them.
If the dominant using the foot fetish like this - particularly with dirty/smelly feet, it means that the servant is usually worth nothing more than the dirt or sweat of the feet. With the smelly feet, suffocation is also another tool that makes the servant subordinate. While with dirt it usually means that the servant is nothing more - while this downgrades the slave, it also shows his insignificance and very little authority to the dominant he worships. In a way, feet are symbolically used to enforce this type of dominance and it is seen throughout history. The powerful, muscular figure of the dom can easily enforce his feet onto the servant as a symbolic means of power, as the act of worshipping feet/soles is the very admission that doms strive for. That symbolically you are nothing more than dirt or a foot-cleaner to the dom. As such, this implicates you are nothing better than washing his feet and inhaling his foot scent. As a dom, it is the admission of the slaves, power and authority you control over them that makes being a dom so attractive.

What is so attractive about Macro/Crush?
This further cements the previous point in regards to the relationship between the dom and sub. It is as I mentioned previously, my experience is with the dominant aspect and my understanding primarily focused around that. Just like the foot fetish, Crush is another form of enforcing power onto someone else.
The process of stepping on someone is the act of forcing dominance onto them. The ideology of macros in general is one of total dominance while micros (being small/counterpart to macro) is the complete submission of being stepped on. With most macros they tend to have foot fetish that they can force onto others by stepping on them and crushing them entirely. The physical act of stepping all over them and crushing them is a more extreme sense of dominance. It further discusses the powerful stature dominants tend to enforce, that you are so powerful and large enough that you can crush micros underfoot. A lot of submissive people do not like this, however most micros (furs who are into being smaller) enjoy the thought and satisfaction of being crushed like a bug. Whether graphically (hard crush) or sensually (soft crush). This is simply because of the authority and power of the macro above, and how insignificant the submissive is in comparison to the macro.
There is a important point to clarify in regards to crush. Many people who enjoy crush (whether crushed or crush'in) enjoy the masochistic nature of the fetish. There is people out there who become attracted to the physical pain caused, and if the submissive/dominant person enjoys foot fetish, then being crushed underfoot is a very pleasurable experience for them. Some people enjoy crush enough to be killed by it. It is important to remember that like most furry fetishes, the Crush/Macro fetish is enjoyed as fictional fantasy.
The fantasy and suggestion behind being crushed or crushing is far more enjoyable than actually being crushed in reality. It is important to remember that the majority of people who enjoy the crush or macro fetish enjoy it in a imaginative way because of the suggestive means of becoming submissive or dominant. The appeal of crush and macro is the suggestion and threat that comes with being powerful and strong enough to simply crush them. The sensation of being a dominant macro can also occur when destroying buildings and rampaging the city, this adds a sense of power-play and control that most macros love, hence why a lot of macro furries enjoy the city so much. Otherwise, in my personal experience it is the observation of watching a macro crush someone else or admiring another macros significant power. I also find great amusement in humiliating and embarrassing submissive micros, such as the macro raising the foot into sky, wiggling their toes and then stepping on the micros with added pressure. It is the sensation of crushing micros slowly and painfully or quick that brings that recognition of your size and power in comparison to theirs.
To define it more simply, you do not wish to 'actually' crush them, as it is a more fictional fantasy. It is the thought/imagination behind the process that suggests the power and authority macros yearn for. Sometimes, you simply crush the person because you are attracted to the thought of asserting your power over them specifically. To some, this can be a protective nature while at least for me, it is the satisfaction of watching them submit their lives to your very whim.
However, to those of you more concerned/worried about those who enjoy hard crush. The hard crush is a fetish often misconstrued and misunderstood. For the majority of hard crush fans, it is not the actual embodiment of seeing blood and guts, and while I can not speak for everyone on this (as a few may enjoy it!) it is rare to see. Much like the dirty/smelly feet, the blood and guts caused by hard crush is the results of crushing. The blood and guts are symbolical to the dominance asserted and thus the result of those victims who fell prey to the significant level of power. It is the idea of crushing someone to nothing but a bloody pulp that showcases how much power the dominant person has. In my case, it is why I enjoy hard crush - because it is the satisfaction demonstrating such power that I can reduce that person to a mere blood-stain beneath my sole. It is a strong way to leave a lasting/very strong impression onto those I dominate.
As such, it is important to remember that hard crush is merely a fantasy. It is a fetish used to escape reality and enjoy them without consequence. It is a imaginative, personal and visual tale of where the person can submit themselves to be crushed like a bug without any significant harm in reality.
Therefore, in conclusion the hard crush is often one of the most volatile fetishes within the fandom because of the bloody nature of it. It is highly controversial because it implies harm and suffering or even bullying. In my honest opinion there is a fine line between fantasy and reality, and as soon as this hard crush becomes a reality - it is no longer interesting to me and disgusting. There is a lot of people outside of the furry fandom who enjoy crushing chicks or other smaller animals underfoot, this is not something remotely interesting to me and I do not condone it. My fascination and attraction towards crush/hard crush stays in fiction and fantasy.
Which of these fetishes are the most appealing to me?
The appeal of any of my fetishes certainly depends on both the mood and time of day. As a rule of thumb, my personal favourite interest lies in both macro and feet. My strongest sexual interest involves giant monsters rampaging across cities, asserting this level of dominance onto the populace. This can include smelly/dirty feet and forcing the prey to worship their soles by licking, sniffing and massaging it with their bodies.
The macro fetish and foot fetish strongly plays into my preference of crushing micros/victims too. This crush fetish is primarily hard crush focused but it can also be soft crush depending on whom I crush. I can become sexually aroused by the sensation and imagination of crushing people underfoot.
Beyond these....I sometimes look at 'yiff' while commissioning Typhek to engage in lewd and vanilla/yiff pictures. With others, this depends on whom it is with.

How did I discover the furry fandom and How did my fetishes develop with that?
In honest truth? I can not remember. It has been a part of my life since childhood and it is impossible to pinpoint the moment I discovered the fandom as a young child. For a long time I grew up with all of these influences, eventually they led me to the fandom. The process of acknowledging these fetishes and the fandom took many years. I grew up without the internet or knowledge of my sexual fetishes. I was alone for a long time before discovering websites in my late-teens such as LavaDomefive, Riproarrex/diablos website and Bigclawz; And eventually, FurAffinity.
Disclaimer: In fact there is probably several things I do not remember! So I'll be updating this part regularly!
Since childhood, before I was aware of the sexual fetishes, I was always fascinated by giant monsters such as Godzilla 98 (since he was my first) and other monsters. For most of my childhood the internet did not exist in the 90's like we know today - I was using a shared computer and it was nigh impossible to search or investigate my sexual fetishes. Other fascinations came from the Super Mario Bros Super Show where the first episode depicted King Koopa having his feet licked.

Since childhood, before I was aware of the sexual fetishes, I was always fascinated by giant monsters such as Godzilla 98 (since he was my first) and other monsters. For most of my childhood the internet did not exist in the 90's like we know today - I was using a shared computer and it was nigh impossible to search or investigate my sexual fetishes. Other fascinations came from the Super Mario Bros Super Show where the first episode depicted King Koopa having his feet licked.
It was at this time I first become fascinated with king koopa sexually. The idea of having his soles worshipped as a sign of loyalty and respect was something that aroused me greatly. Subsequently during my childhood, later episodes of this same show also showed off the macro fetish to me.
It was of no surprise that I would begin to develop these sexual fetishes despite being unaware of the nature of them. At this stage I was neither aware of the fetish or why I even liked it. Except over time, I began to love it even more.
It was at the moment I saw Godzilla 1998 that I first realised I loved giant monsters and their feet. I was still at a young age when I first saw this film so the experience of watching 'Zilla' stomp around in this CGI-galore was fantastic. For the first time, I was watching people being stepped on under such realistic and finely detailed reptile soles. The film placed so much emphasis on the feet that it is undeniably one of the best monster films for macros, foot fetishists and crush fans alike.
However, the original design of Godzilla (developed from 1954) still created moments of him stomping around on both the city and army men. One particular moment of Godzilla vs King Ghidorah (1991) showed Godzillasaurus stomping on American Soldiers. This is all a part of a process of me developing a specific fetish towards reptiles, giant monsters and their stompy feet.
Then there was the beloved Jurassic Park franchise, although the original trilogy released years prior to Godzilla (98) it was a film that I first saw when I was about high-school age. When watching through the trilogy of the films one particular segment in Jurassic Park 2 saw 'Carter' getting viciously stomped multiple times. I have always been fascinated and loved dinosaurs - this is no exception.
As time flew by there was multiple other cartoons I had enjoyed. Of course not so stompy/macro related but more general anthropomorphic cartoons. There was the adaptation of the Godzilla 1998 movie which was a great cartoon series, Street Sharks, Extreme Dinosaurs, Gargoyles and Teenage Mutant Ninja turtles. Power Rangers was also another popular TV show I enjoyed as a child for the giant monsters, but nothing else interested me besides that.

Power Rangers was also another popular TV show I enjoyed as a child for the giant monsters, but nothing else interested me besides that.
It was around about this time that I was beginning to grow out of childhood and into puberty. Despite all of these influences in my childhood, I was not all to aware of my sexual arousal or 'curiosities' about them. However there was a couple of more childhood shows that did have a impact on my childhood - these being Pokemon and Digimon. I give much thanks and credit to the Digimon series more so than Pokemon, Wargreymon was a dream come true for me - a monster that was a dinosaur, sentient and that was so cool. Extreme Dinosaurs set the premise for this but the shows life span was merely months, while Digimon evolved with my childhood for many years. Last but not least was Obelisk the Tormentor from the Yu-Gi-Oh cartoon series, while not an enormous influence, it was certainly his size and muscular stature/design that I fell in love with.
It was around about my early teens (10-11 years old) that I began to masturbate to these giant monsters and stomping. With regular access to my own computer and privacy, the internet was still basic with the internet regularly being disconnected because of phone calls! Alas, nowadays we thankfully never have that issue. Until the early 2000's, the internet was still very primitive.
With that in mind there was several video games that I loved, enjoyed and really did fuel the fires for my inevitable search into giant monsters and their feet. It was thanks to these video games that I began becoming self-conscious about my interest in monsters particularly reptilian/scaly ones. One of the best fighting games I had ever played was released in 2001 by the name of Super Smash Bros Melee (SSBM). This game in itself was absolutely flawless and gave way to some of my earliest memories of masturbating to giant monsters. I fondly remember playing the 'giant mode' on SSBM and giving bowser several mushrooms to make him even bigger. That with the combination of posing the camera angle and putting him into the city made him one of my favourites ever.

That with the combination of posing the camera angle and putting him into the city made him one of my favourites ever.
Another video game which was among one of the first and most memorable giant monster video games of all time was 'War of the monsters' featuring their own Godzilla-esque monster called 'Togera'.
This was perhaps one of the first console giant monster games I had ever played. Perhaps more memorable than the majority of Godzilla games, War of the Monsters had great graphics, sound and allowed you to stomp various tanks and citizens. There was a option to filter the graphic so each time your monster stepped through a crowd you could see the marks left behind. Another great feature in this game was the environments, while not completely destructible, a lot of objects and buildings would collapse - making it an all out war.
While the next giant monster game was not as impressive in regards to the fluid fighting or interaction with the environment - Godzilla: Save the Earth was one of the strongest kaiju (monster) games to date. With a huge variety of monsters and destructible environment it was genuinely a fun game with friends and various challenges kept you entertained. The one downfall of this game was the repetitive single-player mode and grind to unlock all the monsters, plus the poor fighting system mixed with the bad camera made it an above average at best. However! It is still one of my favourite fighting games to date and was a very early influence to my love of giant monsters.
It was funny because despite masturbating to giant monster feet and stomping, I was still oblivious even at this stage. At that young age I was simply oblivious to fetishes or my sexual attraction towards them despite finding regularly going out of my way to look at them. It is important to mention that these games were played primarily because I enjoyed them (monsters! duh!) but also because they offered some great stomping at the time.

It was only another year or two later that I began playing one of the earliest and most popular Lion-head Studios game called 'Black and White 2' (2005). In this game you played as a anthropomorphic god that could control an avatar that would control the fate of those whom served you. While it had no giant reptiles, it was a great game and unfortunately due to the closure of Lionhead Studios we'll never see the third game.
While black and white 2 was a great game overall, allowing for that expansion and destruction from your monster. There was also a new TV cartoon series that featured one of my favourite depictions of the Eastern Dragon to date. That, would be Shendu. Not only does Shendu become a great recurring villain throughout the Jackie Chan Adventures series, his presence in the cartoon along with his stature and muscle was something I never forgot.
(Click on each picture to follow the link to the Jackie Chan Adventure Wiki + Gallery and learn more about this monster!)
It was no surprise that at this stage that I was becoming more and more conscious that I was interested in anthropomorphism. There was one more game that just brought the classic vore, destruction and rampage that I graved for. That game was Rampage: Total Destruction.
Rampage was originally created as a arcade game in 1986 and remains as one of the first video games dedicated to monsters rampaging. The 2006 remake was the first rampage game I played, later opting back to play the 1986 game which was much more fun, replay-ability and interaction.
It was around this time I finally decided to search the internet for 'King koopa feet' when during this time I had recently re-watched the Super Mario Bros show. This was during my time in high-school and the internet during the late 2000's was progressively far better than the late 90''s. It was thankfully because of google that I was able to finally search furry porn and explore childhood fantasies such as king koopa's feet. Upon searching for King Koopa Feet, this was one of the first images I saw from a furry artist.
I remember for a while I had enjoyed this work of art from Teaselbone. I had never seen anything like it, nor did I suspect it was from a furry macro artist. It was around this time in 2005-2006 that I first found this picture of Teaselbone and it was one of the first I had ever found. Funny enough, it was during the same week I found another very memorable foot focused artwork by Teaselbone called 'King Koopa Feet'.
Unsurprisingly, I had found that this was one of the earliest exposures I must of had to the furry fandom. Bowser/King Koopa has always been one of my favourite characters created, and when I viewed this piece of art for the first time I reminisced back many years ago when I first saw King Koopa upon his throne. It was not surprising that I had masturbated to this and many more like it when I found myself so sexually attracted to his feet. It was as if I was placed in the position of those snow-men and I could fantasise about worshipping his reptilian soles. Many of my fetishes began developing rapidly when images and art like this rapidly expanded on my childhood love for Koopa and his feet.
Around this time I became aware that I loved feet, loved King Koopa and that I was going through older films I had watched looking for macro art. I was beginning to become more aware of my sexual fetishes despite not understanding them in high-school, and it was when watching Godzilla (1998) that I wanted to see Godzilla fuck a building.

It was no surprise that I had found this when I was searching for results like Godzilla or Lizzie (rampage) fucking a building. It was around 2006-2007 that I had connected the sexual attraction to macros and sex. This was the first 'adult' macro image I believe I ever saw from a furry artist. The image belongs to Sudonym and his website - but unfortunately the website has vanished from the net.
Another interesting point here is my own sexuality. For a few years (including the first year in the fandom) I found myself to be sexually confused. Originally a heterosexual, I began to find male macros and scaly anthropomorphic men in general a lot more attractive than women. It was a conscious observation I made that while I loved reptilian feet and monsters, they were all muscular anthropomorphic men and I found that more attractive than any woman I ever saw. I could not describe why I had rather imagined Lizzie (in art agove) or King Koopa rather than a porn star.
While I had searched for regular porn, the phase did not last long because it was never interesting or fascinating to me. After experiencing various sexual encounters in real life, I was not getting the same amount of enjoyment from them as masturbating to these images and themes. As for why? I don't know, giant monsters have been a part of my entire life and have always been interesting to me - thus when I was in my teen years and began to become sexually curious, I found myself looking up porn of monsters/characters from my childhood who were predominantly scaly and male. Rather than going onto redtube or pornhub.
To me, I was discovering my sexual fetishes and found artwork from Sudonym and Teaselbone were more arousing and sexually satisfying than porn itself.

The LB Comic series by Sudonym was the first set of furry pictures I saw within the fandom that was specifically focused around original characters. With previous experiences being adaptations of other popular mainstream characters. This comic remains one of my favourite to date because of the dialogue and characters, at this point I questioned my heterosexual sexuality because I found myself enjoying comics like this more than mainstream porn.
However, after following Sudonym and his images around. It was a year or so later that I first stumbled across one of the best websites on the net for reptilian feet and stomping. That site was known as Lavadomefive.

One of the most pivotal moments in my entire experience before the fandom was stumbling across this website. Originally created in 1994 and owned by Dinosorcerer, I was astonished to find that this website had gone by me unnoticed. Some time after discovering Sudonym and his comic, I found this website by following a link for a 'Godzilla foot stomp' and landed on the home page to discover multiple things.
Firstly, this was the first website I ever found specifically dedicated to the macro, foot and furry fetish. Lava Dome Five was alive with several member sites, forums and artist gallery. The website brought hundreds of furs together and helped me realise (in surprise) that I was not the only one with this strong sexual attractions towards monsters and their feet.
Secondly, I believe that if Lava Dome Five did not exist then discovering the fandom and the fantastic art would of taken a least several more years. It was through Dinosorcerer that I believe many of us found comfort knowing that we were not the only ones who shared such a weird and unique fetish. Many thanks to Dinosorcerer and his website, it hosts such enormous content through the community but nowadays lays more dormant due to the rise of Fur Affinity. However, Dinosorcerer and his gold mine was not the only influential figure for me, before the art change users of Lava Dome Five were greeted by this...

Meet RipRoarRex, one of the biggest influences of my macro fetish in the entire fandom. It was through the member sites on Lava Dome Five that I stumbled across Riproarrex and his website. The image of Rexar (Character) stomping down was nothing like I had ever seen before. There were several things that drew me to the image such as the art style, expression and most importantly - power. The piece of art by RipRoarRex (artist) had a nice central focus on the foot with the nicely embedded jet. This linked back to many years ago when I searched for 't-rex foot stomp' or 'Godzilla foot stomp' and the idea of seeing such a muscular anthropomorphic Rex stomp down the city was one of the best things I had ever seen. Even the colour of his sole and the creases of it gave the foot power and weight behind it, it was no surprise I masturbated to this - as porn was not interested to me by my late high-school years.
With a combination of Dinosorcerer and Riproarrex, I had become more sexually aroused and sexually curious to find out more because RipRoarRex was combining some of my favourite features of monsters such as their stompy feet and combining them together to create my ideal fantasy.

To clarify, this website is the main and personal website of the artist RipRoarRex himself. I managed to find his site easily because it was hosted by Lava Dome Five and because the front-page of Rexar stomping down hooked me straight in. There is one important fact I learnt on RipRoarRex's website - and that was about furries.
In the 'about' section of his website, Riproarrex talks about the furry fandom and fetishes, about his sexual preference and to my amusement how he joined the fandom. It was at this point that his information hit me like a bomb shell, suddenly everything I had masturbated to for years suddenly had a name and context. For many years I never understood nor questioned it, however how could I further look into it with no name or clarification behind it?
When Riproarrex discussed the reason behind his foot fetishes and macro fetish, I completely identified with him. To have this fetish explained to me from his perspective allowed me to begin becoming conscious and question why I loved it so much.
Lets not forget becoming a furry does not take merely a day, but is built up over the course of your entire life. The discovery of Riproarrex and Dinosorcerer helped me learn who I am, and helped me find some solace in my own sexual identity and find resolution in understanding my sexual fetishes. Compared to the earlier 2000's and late 1990's, the influences of cartoons and films merely aroused my curiosity; While both of these people helped me satisfy that curiosity.

Unsurprisingly, Riproarrex's website helped me further enjoy and develop a crush, foot and macro fetish. The first visual connection between sexual macro rampaging was when viewing Sudonym's Lizzie artwork, but subsequently cemented by the enormous selection of Rexar stomping around with his soles or even just enjoying his own feet. When admiring Rexar, it was not hard to relate or imagine the thought of worshipping his soles or even being him. There was a lot more Rexar artwork I loved, including his animations! These images just happen to be a selection of the most memorable to me and a few older ones helped me develop the dominant, aggressive, cruel and narcissistic character I have today.
All in all, Riproarrex helped me understand who I am, establishing a name for my sexual fetishes and why I am so sexually attracted towards scaly feet. But! While I credit RipRoarRex for the clarity and explanation into my fetishes - I had still not officially entered the fandom nor knew about the entire sub-culture around furries. There were a handful of other artists which deserve some credit and recognition for their work and help guide me into the fandom.

There were a handful of other artists which deserve some credit and recognition for their work and help guide me into the fandom.
Another influential artist and animator was 'Diablo the rex'. Diablo created various high-quality animations both long and short. In his earlier animations Diablo used the humans as victims. The Barrel Trample animation by Diablo was the first I saw on his website - also hosted on Lava Dome Five. In the short animation the raptor creatively stomps the human into paste. It reminded me of the ancient Egyptians crushing grapes for wine, much like this raptor was doing by the sounds of it...
In later animations, I found myself enjoying crush more as Diablo further improved his animations with the quality and length. The subject matter changed from human to raptor which was more enjoyable to me. While RipRoarRex featured some gore and crush, Diablo and his animations were the one to embed it into me. The sounds of the bones crackling, blood splattering and the dominance the raptor/rex shows I always found arousing and mesmerising. Even to this day, newer animations (such as Lusty Anthro rex trample!) are very enjoyable and thus included it because it deserves the recognition.

Thanks to Diablo The Rex I also played my very first game specifically focused around the macro, foot and crush fetish. The first time I came across this game I spent many hours happily stomping across various humans. It brought up fond memories of Jurassic Park 2 where Carter was stomped multiple times. This game remains beloved to me because of a variety of reasons;
Of course I could further discuss Diablo's fantastic sense of game design and the few other games he has done, but I would be rambling on!
That's not to say Diablo's artwork was not great. Of course it was! Diablo is a very talented and creative individual responsible for his own stomping game and posts various artworks of rex and raptor soles. But to me his animations were the first experience I had of hard crush because they were a lot more graphic than RipRoarRex's and depicted the victims slowly suffering and deflating.
While cruel, I had found myself highly aroused by the dominant nature of Diablo's dinosaurs and the amount of realism there were in the animations, such as the sounds and the way victims were animated to be helpless and even pathetic in their nature. So to experience Diablo's animations were a pleasure, where the emphasis was often on the domination exhibited by the larger dinosaur and on the graphic gory detail of the crush itself.
There was also an enormous difference in the aesthetic art style between Diablo and RipRoarRex, one was cartoonish while the other was realistic. Plus Diablo also provided feral rex stomping which I identified with more (at the time!) from childhood experiences like Jurassic Park 2. We're also talking about 2D vs 3D in regards to both artists and their animations too. Both were fantastic and fundamental to my growth in the scaly macro/crush fandom.
Of course lets not forget that Diablo hosted all of his own animations, art and stories on his own website. If stompy dinosaurs and crush are your sort of thing. Check it out, many of my years before the fandom were spent on here and enjoying the various animations and content Diablo gave freely; http://download.lavadomefive.com/members/snail/
- Firstly, the game allowed me to play THE dinosaur and crush humans. It was fun imagining the humans being crushed under my foot and the sensations/feelings brought upon by it.
- Secondly, the game played smoothly for me and allowed you to change the amount of humans and size of the rex foot. This meant you could adjust the foot to stomp a head or hundreds of humans!
- Lastly, it was the first game I ever experienced where my sexual fetishes were the main focus.

There were several other artists that were influential during my anonymous surfing of the Lava Dome Five site. One artist worthy of mentioning is a artist known by '5-D'. While these two images were the only ones on the site, many years into the fandom later I found a whole collection of art by the same artist with many themes.
These two images stood out to me for several reasons, much like Diablo and my experience of Jurassic Park 2; 5-D's two images reminded me of Godzilla (1998) and brought both the childhood experience of watching that movie and sexual fetishes together. Before this point I had never seen Zilla stomp down other than the film, so looking at these two images and their themes were very enjoyable to me and unique. The idea of Zilla stomping down on crowds of humans and imposing impending doom was arousing to me, specially as it brought the same sexual arousal as I felt every time I watched the movie.
The traditional and highly detailed art style is rare within the fandom. In my opinion It is so unique that even now during my years in the fandom it is hard to confuse or relate another art style to his own. The relaxing Zilla piece also brought an adult nature to one of my first giant monster films, if not the first. Godzilla (1998) was re-imagined in a way I could not possibly imagine, in such high quality and detail that suggested various humans crushed after they were stepped on. The soles of Zilla's feet were my favourite part, specially as it tells a story of how insignificant those humans were to him. Plus the various humans on the road give scale, size and a feeling of authority and power to Zilla. That humans were merely play-things for him.
While these were the only two images at the time, 5-D certainly gave me the craving for Godzilla (1998) I needed. A recurring pattern had began to occur at this point. All of these childhood inspirations were all being depicted by artists in various themes and fetishes. There was a casual trend in artwork posted on Lava Dome Five (LD5) that shows all of my scalies being reinterpreted sexually with themes such as crush, feet and macro. Despite all of the differences, all of the art had one thing in common - the power and feeling of helplessness suggested by the monster.
If you enjoyed 5-D's art, go check out his FA. It is much more updated and contains a variety of more artwork, 5-D is without a doubt one of the most talented artists in the macro community; http://www.furaffinity.net/user/5-d/
There is however one more memorable artist from the Lava Dome Five site that brings this whole journey into the fandom full circle. One artist on Lava Dome Five was without a doubt one of the biggest contributors to the entire site, with hundreds of images and various themes 'Markie' was definitely a staple for me. Not only was the colourful style, lighting and theme turn me on, it was the fact that his artwork featured entirely females. This was without the doubt the first time I saw a female in a position of power and dominance in terms of macro or crush. It was through Markie that I had learnt in fact I am bi-sexual, rather than gay or heterosexual. Funnily enough in comparison to the muscular males, I was turned on equally as much by viewing females with the exact same authority and lewd than the men.
While viewing the gallery on LD5 for art, I had come across Markie and was greatly humbled the pleasure of viewing his artwork. This was the first image I had seen from him that predominantly struck me, it was the moment that I viewed this piece of art that I had learnt I enjoyed both females and males. It made little difference to me in the end. As they were still stomping and asserting dominance.
Markie was one of the most unique artists that was on LD5. While the majority of artists focused on anthropomorphic animals in fetishes like feet, macro and crush - Markie often used human females in his artwork as well. However, this was another crucial discovery about myself. My preferences and interests were completely disregarding humans even if they were in the same position of power - to me the interest and fantasy came from fiction not reality. That the most enjoyable art and theme were anthropomorphic scalies.
Despite the enormous variety of themes Markie presented, there was one setting and one theme that I enjoyed beyond all over. That theme was a female macro dragon crushing an army of soldiers. This was both gory and showed a variety of perspectives that was greatly arousing to me. It touched on the point I have made so often during this recollection of events - and that is the power and authority.

This was perhaps one of my favourite comics ever made because of the amount of destruction and fun she has. Unlike other pieces of furry art which shows aggression or dominance, what was so enjoyable about Markie's artwork was the playful nature of the dragoness as she toys and crushes the screaming masses of knights into paste.
But alas, it was now 2009 and the years had begun passing by. Everything that has happened took place over the course of a decade, starting a young age and predominantly continuing throughout my life. These fetishes like macro, crush and feet have been a recurring theme throughout my life that I found later on were sexualised during a time when my hormones were developing - inevitably this created a sexually stimulated connection between feet, stomping and anthropomorphic scalies.

It was in 2009 that the game 'I am Godzilla' came out. It was a flash game that I played for days and fondly reminded me of the days I had played Diablo's flash games. The object in this game was to crush as many people as you could underneath Godzilla's foot in the quickest time possible, the faster you did this - the more points you could spend on growing your Godzilla.
In terms of flash games, this was definitely one of my favourites before I stuck to console and PC gaming. The sound effect, background music and little screams you could hear with the squish effects were very satisfying. I loved growing Godzilla as big as I could and replaying the city levels countless times to crush as many people as possible. One additional lusty way you could kill humans, is by smearing your foot left or right once your gauge was full.
Later on the hacked version of this game came out where every level could be completed in one stomp - easily adjusting the foot to beyond the max size limit. Admittedly, this was an arousing game to me despite the simple graphics, but just like Diablo's game - it had the same effect. To play as Godzilla (1998) and relive those scenes of stomping humans. With that, it became one of my favourite macro/crush focused games of all time.
Last but not least, was one of the biggest websites on Lava Dome Five that hosted an entire encyclopedia on toes, paws and stomping. I first found this site back in 2007-2008 during the first few months I was on Lava Dome Five. This website deserves a lot of attention and recognition because Lava Dome Five would be a lot more emptier without it.

Big Clawz - a website dedicated to Herpetophilia (reptiles) and giant stompy claws is about showing and collecting every source of claw stomping that has ever existed. Every cartoon, movie and show that shows stomping and giant monster claws are represented on the website, whether it is Godzilla or Digimon. Big Clawz is without a doubt still one of my favourite websites because it was a website I spent a long time on searching for more claw shoots and feet to admire.
Behind this website was three people, 'Tyrannotoes', 'Giran' and 'Toeclaws'. Once you search the site yourself under the various sections you will understand the enormous and gigantic amount the work that these three have put into it. Movie clips, animations and images flood the macro scene with so much variety and content. While Lava Dome Five is the god father of macrophilia on the internet, Big Clawz certainly plays as the god father of macrophilia and hereptophilia on the internet.
The reason why I had left this last in particular was because after 'I am Godzilla' the time blurred between 2009 to 2011. The majority of my time before the fandom were spent on these websites, and I think to not include them would be a disservice to the various creators on each one of them.

So in the end Big Claws satisfied any needs I had - ever. With all of the cartoons, comics and movies I had watched and grew up with. The gargauntaun data base these three collected was nothing short of astonishing. It was because of their work through providing artwork, animation and short clips that I was easily satisfied with my fetishes for years.
One last point worth mentioning before wrapping this up is the fact that the information was very clear. If you enjoy scalies and their endeavours, it is possible you additionally have Herpetophilia - a fetish towards reptiles. As a general rule of thumb (addressing how sexy Godzilla is!) most furs and people with these types of fetishes will have first experienced it with Godzilla regardless of the incarnation. If you have ever watched Godzilla and felt breathless from amazement, or arousal from seeing a giant reptile stomp around. It is possible you could have a fetish towards reptiles, yet alone macrophilia and other fetishes that stem from it.
Back to the point. Godzilla is very sexy. The vast majority of furs including myself will find that Godzilla is one of the main reasons we are into all of these crazy kinks. The site does a nice job of addressing various fetishes, some furs can specifically have a clawfoot/claw-toe fetish rather than an actual furry paw fetish (like those of cats/dogs etc).
However, the journey ends when my account was first created on FurAffinity - August 27th 2011. It was from the curiosity to learn more about furries that I had searched the term through google. I was browsing through RipRoarRex's website when I had been reminded time and time again about furries - but never satisfied that urge to find out. However, once I had this fountain of knowledge and experience BEFORE the fandom. It was about time I delved into it.
As uneventful as the conclusion to this story is - I simply typed 'furries' into google search and found Fur Affinity. My very first art site and epic conclusion to this tale. Once I had created a fur affinity account I spent months lurking on the site and created my own character. Even though one journey had come to the end, the beginning of the fandom was an entirely new chapter in my story of the furry fandom. The rest - was history...
P.S: I never have forgotten what all of you have done for me. I have never forgotten my roots and I wanted to take the time to write this special message for all of those individuals I have included in this story. I've not forgotten what you have done for me and I would one day wish to pass on that experience to those who were once like me - lost, curious and scared that they were the only ones sexually attracted towards giant monsters like Godzilla and their feet.
Special thanks goes to: DinoSorcerer, RipRoarRex, Diablo The Rex, 5-D, Markie, Gigan, Tyrannotoes, Toeclaws, Sudonym and Teaselbone.
It was through your guidance and talent, that I found my way to the fandom. Whether that was through web development or artistic talent...
