Vampires are straight, Werewolves are gay. Sorry I don't make the rules.

[–] Kefla@hexbear.net 25 points 4 days ago (1 children)

If my experience with World of Darkness has taught me anything it's that vampires are gay, werewolves are gay, everything is gay, straight people are a myth

[–] Keld@hexbear.net 10 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I thought there was a whole breeding fetish thing for werewolves. Admittedly this is second hand information.

You mean the one that involves pregnant omega dudes?

[–] Le_Wokisme@hexbear.net 7 points 4 days ago

omega dude? like the charlton heston movie?

[–] Keld@hexbear.net 7 points 4 days ago (1 children)

No i mean the world of darkness supposedly has like a whole breeding kink thing for werewolves and "kinfolk".

Again, second hand information. I don't actually know.

Ah, i see. Haven't gotten much into WoD werewolf lore so far, i just got my V:tM group and the Changeling: the Lost campaign that i've been working on for ages.

I dunno but vampires and their general antics remind of Epstein class types or historical nobles with their parasitic ways

Yes my brain is totally broken lmao. China save us

[–] Awoo@hexbear.net 18 points 4 days ago (2 children)

Your brain isn't broken, this entire genre of fiction is basically "the nobles and aristocracy are parasites and suck us dry, literally".

They are also incapable of self-reflection.

[–] Monk3brain3@hexbear.net 2 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Ok that makes sense. I only noticed the parallels post Epstein files so I thought it wasn't common knowledge

[–] Awoo@hexbear.net 3 points 3 days ago

There's an element of bourgeois embracement in it too depending on the works, "yes we're vampires but we're sexy and kinky and do fucky fucked up things". A sort of revelry within being a vampire and above the morals of humanity.

no that's pretty much the exact point of your dracula-type vampire story

No vampires have ever been straight, not even Nosferatu (especially Nosferatu.) However, werewolves are so straight that it loops back around to being extraordinarily gay. Even gayer then the average vampire if you woulf believe. (Im reminded that vamp was a slur for bi people for some reason.) This has been documented in excrusiating detail by many, many, many lycanthrope scholars. doggirl-smart

Yesterday I learned that the actual vampire in Nosferatu is called Count Orlok, "Nosferatu" apparently was the supposed Romanian name for vampires, probably used to distinguish him from the various other vampire archetypes of Europe.

The name of the actor who portrayed him translates to "Max Fright" lmao (also shrek-blob )

My name is MAXIMUM SHREK and I am a vampire

Gay vampires (Carmilla) predates straight vampires (Dracula).
