So, purely out of curiosity, I'd like to conduct a poll -
How far removed does something have to be from your own species for you to consider it
well
unorthodox
to have any sort of romantic aspirations with them?
I ask this mostly because I'm betrothed to a damned dragon in my own world (no, not a humanoid with draconic qualities, an actual, literal dragon) and apparently both of those are considered just a tad too extreme by most people's standards?
But then no reasonable human on my world would really consider another human at all strange for wanting to bed a goblin, or an elf, orc, dwarf, or what have you, so it appears the line has been drawn somewhere.
Not bothering with anonymity, because why in the Nine Hells not, but you're welcome to if you wish.

Hold on, maybe voice is better for this if you're having a hard time with text.]
I do think that in your case, it's also a matter of...well. Compatibility.
[ Because she wouldn't fuck a centaur either, okay. ]
A human and a hobgoblin are about the same size, with the same configuration of limbs and [ ahem ] other equipment, so it's a much different issue than a human and a centaur.
no subject
Y- yeah, that's what I mean. "Compatibility"...
Aha... I didn't know what a hobgoblin was, so. That makes more sense now...
no subject
Not that centaurs don't exist in my world, because they do, but.
no subject
I get that...
Yeah, no, it's... I've never seen a centaur with a human woman... I only ever knew my boss and her husband, but. Like I said, she was born stunted so... it... you know. Matched better.
H- He was a really nice man, though! Nothing weird or anything!
no subject
No no, I believe you. And it's...
Well.
You find all sorts of people in my world, but perhaps I ought to show you a few pictures?
no subject
1/2
[ Just give her a few minutes, Konoha. ]
no subject
I'm going to skip over humans, because...well, they're the most numerous in my world, but we all know what those are already.
[ The resultant sketches are rough but get the basic physical traits down; they're very simply colored, have everyone wearing the same thing, sort of look like this, probably.
She sends Konoha the list. ]
Typical dwarf
Typical elf (surface)
Typical elf (underground)
Typical halfling
Typical gnome
Typical orc
Typical goblin
Typical hobgoblin
Typical bugbear
A yuan-ti pureblood
[ Aaaaaand that's it! ]
...there's quite a few other races in my world, actually, but those are the most common where I'm from. You do actually see a few people who have animal qualities like the Prismals here do, but the shiny crystal bits...well, not as much.
no subject
i understand now... size and color and hair is different but shape is all same...
i guess could love more easy in this case... thing you like to look at is probably on everyone.
no subject
[ She is not a fan of Big Chonk, okay, her body type is usually more lithe. Or if you're going to be buff, be like, Not Big Chonk Buff. ]
Most elves also never get to be as voluptuous as some people would like, so if your ideal woman is one with large "tracts of land", that's something to consider.
But for the most part, well, yes.
no subject
I think I understand, I mean...
But I guess it's all... orthodox... in that range... then? If you want to.
