Well, let's think about that. I think Hot Pockets are satisfying, but erotically? So if I had an orifice, and if I decided to fill it with melted pepperoni and cheese, would I be turned on?

I think it all depends, as part of the deliciousness of my hot pocket orifice would hinge on its hotness, so I would have to find a way to microwave it. But that would scald.

So the answer is no.

If the internet has taught me anything, it's that everything is erotic to somebody.

But they are erotic!

Anything is erotic to humans if it's either (a) an erogonous zone or (b) not present on the body of the opposite gender.

It's it's (a) and (b) then you might as well create a fark category for it.

bondcliff has it. As its primary use is for child care, it would have only fringe fetisihistic popularity as an erotic object, like preganant women, breast milk, etc.

If humans had pouches, that's where the boobies would be, so, like, duh.

chaz: Last time I checked, the primary purpose of breasts is child care. And though I'm not much of an expert on the subject, I'm under the impression the obsession of heterosexual males with them is more than fringe fetishism.

However, most of the most popular erogonous zones have high nerve-ending densities; I don't think a pouch would be very sensitive, considering it'd be designed to lug a child around in.

Grod: Hehe, very nice.

fvw: Human breasts probably evolved as peacock-style indicator of vitality. The idea that it's designed to display (possibly, as Desmond Morris proposes, to fulfill the now-upright ape's desire to have something like an engorged buttocks to look like).

Theories like that larger breasts are exciting because they could carry more milk or something like that are most likely wrong (since it's not true, for one). So the fact that breasts are erogenous and attractive sexually is probably mostly unrelated to their child-rearing role.

Only if they were covered, and wrapped every day in lacy undergarments. Then, ya.

Marsupials w/ pouches are said to have "double-vaginas," right..?

Thing is, the pouch carries babies and has nipples. Breasts/nipples are used to feed children for a few years out of a woman's life, assuming she has several children and feeds them for a year or more each. Most of the time breasts are concealed. Although it is not uncommon to see a woman breastfeeding in public that is not always the case. A pouch, on the other hand, could not be conceled and be functional as the child/joey needs easy access at all times. Besides, I imagine that women without children would end up using them as a built in purse.

Only if they wanted to get their celphones covered in mucous. A marsupial pouch is not the cartoon fur-lined satchel you're picturing; it's essentially an external womb. Think pink, wet, and biological, not cute and fuzzy.

So, yeah, definitely erotic. Besides, name an orifice on the human body large enough to accommodate a penis which has not been eroticised. QED.

Smiling, Jessica stroked her paw across his soft chest fur and nuzzled his ears
again, eliciting a soft moan from him.

"You like that - don't you Ashtail?" Jessica whispered softly, as her
paw stroked slowly in circles on his chest.
