2023 Vorevey Results
It’s finally ready, the results for the 2023 Vore Survey by Greedygulo (thats me!)
The primary purpose of the survey was so I could see whether my assumptions about what was popular with my followers was actually true. I also wanted to find out what kind of vore content appealed to folks that follow Bewere Books (Fenris Publishing). Because the survey respondents mostly came from my already existing followers, obviously the results are going to be skewed towards the sort of artwork that I already do, so please keep that in mind while looking at the results! Take it all with a grain of salt.
The survey got WAY more traction than I expected, thanks to all of you that boosted and shared! I thought maybe I’d get about 200 responses, but there were 1400 in the end! So please keep in mind that even if only 25% of people picked an answer, that’s still several hundred people! Even 4% is 56 people, which is nothing to sneeze at either.
Another thing to keep in mind while viewing these results: a lot of people answered any/all for some questions, and then didn’t select any other answers, but some people also selected individual options in addition to “any/all”, which artificially increases the number of people voting for some options. I wish I could have designed the survey better to avoid this problem, but alas! I am not a survey scientist, I just draw pictures.
I don’t think our results turned out too skewed by this though, so there's still a lot of good information to be gleaned by studying these survey responses.
Finally, a few people asked why some answers were choose-all, and some were choose-one. It depended on which I wanted to know more! I know people like cock vore, for example, but what percentage of people *prefer* it? Do they like any other types of vore, or only CV? I wanted to know both what people's *favorite* things were, if they had to pick only one, but also find out how broad people’s tastes were.
PS: I managed to completely forget several major kinks that are popular in the vore space, so they are just flat-out not represented at all in the results! This is because I’m a dummy. An incomplete list of things I forgot are: weight gain, feeders, and gas. Oops!
Tables were included below each chart for accessibility reasons.
First question is about the story format, this was a ‘choose all’ question.
I'll be honest, I have no idea what ‘game: other type of gameplay’ could mean in this context. But hey, if you’re making a vore game and it’s not a visual novel, there’s apparently a lot of people that might be into that!
Comic / Graphic Novel | Game (Other type of gameplay) | Game (Kinetic / Visual Novel) | Single Artist Collection of Short Comics | Novel with Illustrations | Multi-artist Comic Anthology | Novel | I only want it if it's free. |
1053 | 971 | 940 | 777 | 716 | 601 | 448 | 184 |
Straight-forward results here! The vast majority of people that responded want at least some type of story.
I'm okay reading a story, but I'm here for the vore. | I want there to be a story with my vore. | The story matters more to me than the vore. | The less story the better. |
704 | 614 | 50 | 32 |
Fantasy | Erotic (100% pornography) | Slice-of-Life | Science fiction | Romance | Comedy | Horror | Crime | Other | Historical |
1161 | 1058 | 1026 | 998 | 943 | 676 | 664 | 590 | 246 | 218 |
Friends | Romantic (Dating, married, etc.) | Hookup (Bootycall/Grindr/Tinder etc.) | Complete Strangers | Casual Acquaintances | Master/Pet or Rider/Mount | Eater / Food | Enemies | Boss / Subordinent |
1149 | 1111 | 980 | 937 | 900 | 896 | 832 | 766 | 728 |
This question doesn’t make a distinction between *who* is what role of the dynamics. Subordinent eating their boss? Because of the order, predator first prey second is sort of implied but the ambiguity could have skewed the results. Also this question was specifically about the predator and prey characters, but one thing the survey overall left out was discussion about Feeders.
The order doesn't mean who tops/bottoms, or who the pred/prey are. Gender of pred and prey will be in a later question.
Key:
NB: Non-binary
Polyamory: 3+ people in a romantic relationship.
Queer-Platonic: Romantic non-sexual relationship
FWB: Friends with Benefits
T4T: Transgender/Transgender relationship
Male/Male | FWB | Any/All | Male/Female | NB/Male | Polyamory | 3+ ppl in sexual relationship | Female/Female | NB/NB | Queer-Platonic | NB/Female | T4T | I don't like any relationships | Something else |

Not too much to say about this one! Some people that chose Any/All only chose that, and some people chose it in addition to other selections.
With characters like robots, magical creatures etc, this means whatever age they appear to be.
Adult (26-40) | Young Adult (18-25) | Middle Aged (41-60) | Elderly (60+) |
1304 (93.08%) | 1192 (85.08%) | 593 (42.33%) | 154 (10.99%) |
With characters like robots, magical creatures etc, this means whatever age they appear to be.
The x-axis for this chart is only 800 compared to the 1400 of most other charts.
I like the characters to be about the same age. | I like the characters to have a small age difference (3-9 years) | Age difference doesn't matter to me, any/all of these. | I like fantasy age gaps (mortal-immortal) | I like the characters to have a bigger age difference (10-15 years) | I like spring-winter relationships (16-20+ year difference) |
782 | 678 | 629 | 419 | 290 | 141 |
For the purpose of this question; trans men, cis men, and trans masc are 'male', trans women, cis women, and trans femme are 'female', and anyone that does not consider themselves within the gender binary is 'non-binary'.
The x-axis for this chart is only 800 compared to the 1400 of most other charts.
Prey's gender doesn't matter to me. | Male Pred | Male Prey | Pred's gender doesn't matter to me. | Female Pred | Non-binary Pred | Non-binary Prey | Female Prey | OTHER |

All/Any of the above | Some size-difference (1ft-3ft) | Extreme size-difference (3ft-10ft) | Same-size | Macro (too big to fit in a building or bigger) / micro (fits in your hand, or smaller) |
510 (36.4%) | 385 (27.5%) | 207 (14.8%) | 185 (13.2%) | 113 (8.1%) |
I forgot to specify if it was the pred bigger than the prey, or the reverse. So- people might have answered either direction for this!
Soft Vore (swallowed or inserted whole) | Safe Vore / Endo (Soft Vore, just being held inside) | All/Any of these | Hard Vore (chewing, bone breaking, blood, ect) | None of These |
888 (63.4%) | 242 (17.3%) | 236 (16.9%) | 33 (2.4%) | 1 (0.07%) |

1374 | 953 | 923 | 619 | 610 | 627 | 131 | 83 | 0 | 0 |
The types of Vore that people wrote in that I didn’t have as options: Breast Vore (Pec & Cleavage), Navel Vore, Nipple/Udder Vore, Soul Vore, Pouch Vore
Willing Pred, Willing Prey | Willing Pred, Unwilling Prey | Unaware Pred, Unwilling Prey | Unaware Pred, Willing Prey | Unwilling Pred, Willing Prey | Unwilling Pred, Unwilling Prey |
1238 | 1237 | 794 | 784 | 764 | 591 |
This one was interesting! In general the willingness or awareness of the Pred seems to be the most important factor.
This one was highly subjective, depending on how you interpreted my wording. The exact phrasing of the answers was:
I don't like them to be mean at all. | Some playful, gentle teasing. | More of a bully, but still friendly. | Bullying and taunting, they aren't nice about it. | Mean; cruel and rough, doesn't care how upset or scared the prey is. | Sadistic. Enjoying prey's fear and tears. Will torment them for a while. | All/Any of the above. |
22 ( 2% ) | 321 ( 23% ) | 313 ( 22% ) | 102 ( 7% ) | 61 ( 4% ) | 71 ( 5% ) | 510 ( 36% ) |
All/Any of the above | Not scared at all. | Annoyed, but not scared. | A little nervous or unsure. | Frightened, but frozen. | Very scared and trying to get away/struggling. | Crying, begging, in hysterics. |
476 | 91 | 115 | 396 | 78 | 195 | 49 |
Also subjective, but very interesting!
Mawshots | Licking prey in general | Pred enjoy prey's flavor | Slurping up prey's tail | Prey's face framed in the throat | Tongue-hugging | Excessive drooling | Belching | Prey's toes or paws being licked | Mouth smells/ pred breath | Pred's cheeks puffed out | None | OTHER |
1229 | 1178 | 1107 | 1044 | 1015 | 910 | 909 | 894 | 682 | 566 | 540 | 10 | 76 |
Some of the write-ins for this one: chewing (gentle or rough), prey being held against palate, uvulas, mawplay, tongue humping, stimulating prey with tongue.
Prey going down head-first | External view | Prey going down feet-first | Takes pred several difficult swallows to get the prey down | Internal view | Prey hearing the pred's heartbeat or breathing on their way down | One big gulp | Very large throat-bulge | Round, featureless throatbulge | Detailed impressions on the outside of the throat | Prey getting stuck | Prey going down sideways | None | OTHER |
1250 | 1191 | 1149 | 1124 | 1087 | 1068 | 1029 | 895 | 861 | 626 | 534 | 282 | 6 | 46 |
Write ins for this Q: butt-first, long swallowing sequences, collar play/snapping, effortless swallowing or just relaxing to let prey down.
Singular Prey | Pred rubbing stomach from outside | Tight stomach | Stomach walls churning and kneading | Internal sounds (growling, groaning, gurgling, squelching) | External view | Internal view | Pools of acid/fluid | Clean stomach | Hints of past prey (clothing, items) | Belching | Roomy stomach | Multi-prey | Prey trying to escape up through the valve into throat | Hints of past prey (bones, skulls, fur) | Messy stomach (other food or drink) | Running out of air | Smells | None | OTHER |
1275 | 1272 | 1240 | 1239 | 1228 | 1184 | 1171 | 970 | 938 | 831 | 827 | 824 | 817 | 777 | 726 | 723 | 516 | 487 | 8 | 59 |
Numbers on the left since I thought that made it easier to read, especially since there’s a lot of choices in this Q. Some write ins/things I forgot: prey self-pleasuring in stomach, crushing via stomach, belly-humping by pred, prey rubbing stomach from inside, Full Tour, multi-stomach chambers, external impressions or outlines, feeders/others rubbing pred's stomach from the outside.
Endosoma: Prey is taken inside Pred's body, but they don't die and they aren't digested, though other things (good or bad) may happen to them.
Short-term Endo (held inside the pred's body for minutes, hours etc.) | Experience is euphoric for prey | Long-term Endo (held inside the pred's body for days, weeks, months etc.) | Pred steals traits from the prey | Prey transformed into pred's species, or something else. | Pred and prey fuse | Experience is horrifying for prey | Pred transformed into prey's species, or something else. | I don't like endosoma. | OTHER |
1008 | 937 | 833 | 513 | 445 | 403 | 390 | 242 | 251 | 33 |
More write-ins: prey given traits by pred, prey is annoyed, prey is forgotten about/accidental endo, Permanent Endo, Sentient Fat, mana/energy drain or other non-digestion absorption, pred is providing a service (transport/healing), Prey going from Unwilling to Willing.
All/Any | Gooey & Implied Digestion | Gooey Digestion | No digestion | Implied Digestion | Gorey & Implied Digestion | Gorey Digestion | Doesn't matter to me |
440 | 346 | 212 | 149 | 109 | 54 | 53 | 37 |
This one was a surprise to me, I would have thought digestion wasn’t as popular. But, again, this *is* skewed towards people that follow me, and I am not an endo-only artist.
All/Any of the above. | I prefer fatal | I prefer non-fatal (but it's okay if it's ambiguous.) | Fatal, but only if there's reformation afterwards. | Fatal Vore | Non-fatal Vore | Ambiguous fatality / fade to black, we don't know what happens. |
379 | 280 | 230 | 148 | 141 | 123 | 99 |
This question got some feedback due to the fact that we have a lot of terminology in this subculture and not everyone agrees on what some words mean. I didn’t always define all the terms I used in the survey, and that probably skewed some of the answers, including this one.
No Breasts & Penis | Breasts & Vagina | Breasts & Penis | Alien / Fantasy genitals | No Breasts & Vagina | Breasts, Penis, & Vagina | Completely Null | Pseudopenis | Null with Hole | OTHER |
910 | 681 | 588 | 584 | 487 | 469 | 432 | 331 | 326 | 36 |
There was some confusion because of the way I ordered the words here. It was written this way to avoid gendering of genitals. The less confusing way of writing it, would have been ‘penis & no breasts’ rather than ‘no breasts & penis’.
Also, I forgot to include it, so a lot of people answered “OTHER” and wrote-in “doesn’t matter”.
Don't care/Any of the above are fine | 100% Animal/Species accurate | Human-esque with some animal features | Don't want any genitals in my vore | Human |
737 | 259 | 197 | 120 | 87 |
I am defining 'sexual vore' as: there are genitals somewhere involved (being visibly aroused, being eaten by/inserted into cock/vagina, sex happening before or after the vore, etc)
While 'non-sexual vore' is: the genitals are not involved before, during or after the vore acts, and possibly are not depicted at all.
I like them equal amounts. | I like sexual vore MORE than non-sexual vore. | I like non-sexual vore MORE than sexual vore. | Doesn't matter / Other parts of the vore are more important. | I ONLY like non-sexual vore. | I ONLY like sexual vore. |
574 | 423 | 181 | 132 | 58 | 32 |

Prey is stored in the balls | "Digestion" (prey turned into cum) | Size-difference prey | Prey being used as a sex toy | Tightness | Vore Transfer (Cock Vore -> Anal Vore, Oral Vore, Vaginal Vore) | Condom-filling | Same-size prey | Cock or Ball growth | Micro-prey | Prey is just wedged in the cock | Hyper-genitals | Prey is stored in the bladder | I don't like cock vore. |

905 | 876 | 855 | 811 | 793 | 781 | 662 | 475 | 453 | 250 | 233 |
Kissing/Making out | Oral-genital Contact (fellatio, cunningulis etc.) | Anal Penetration | Non-penetrative rubbing and groping (Frottage / Tribadism / Scissoring, etc.) | Oral-anal Contact (rimming) | Sex Toys | Vaginal Penetration | Sounding / Urethral Penetration | None / I don't want to see any non-vore sexual acts. | OTHER |
1060 | 978 | 901 | 858 | 754 | 664 | 628 | 386 | 52 | 30 |
While kissing/making out is not inherently sexual, we included it because it’s sometimes involved in sex scenes.
Some additional things that people put for this section: Paws&Footstuff, Cuddling&Hand holding, Collars/Petplay, Sexual content between pred and a 3rd party, extra fetish stuff mixed with vore.
Any of the above are fine / Don't care | Enthusiastic Consent | Neutral Consent | Dubious consent | I don't want sex stuff in my vore. | Nonconsent |
574 | 333 | 180 | 89 | 49 | 29 |
This section was honestly just because I was curious, and definitely a lot of work went into the wording of possible answers. Because of the unified answers, you can directly compare all of the charts, neat!
Everything here was chosen because in some way it is divisive, niche, banned on some websites, and because I wanted to know if there were any clear dealbreakers for most vore fans.
This section was optional, here is the warning from the survey:
The following questions are about content that might be considered extreme, divisive, offensive or triggering. For many people, vore itself might be considered extreme! If you start the extreme content section, but change your mind, you can come back to this question by clicking "back" at the bottom of the page, and change your answer to skip the extreme content section entirely.
I've included some topics and themes here regardless of whether or not I have any interest in including them in my future work. The anonymous results of this survey may be used by artists and publishers other than myself, so if you're comfortable with answering these questions, I'd really appreciate it.
It's important to learn both what people like, and what they never, EVER want to see. These questions are about fictional scenarios, NOT REAL LIFE, and you'll be asked what you DO and DO NOT WANT to read about in your vore content.
