I'm doing a project on guro, so I have a question: When did you first become interested in guro?
For me (I'm female, not that it matters), I remember as a kid having really violent dreams and finding them strangely attractive - I wasn't sexually developed but I would wait a long time before peeing so that it hurt and I'd rub my crotch, not really knowing why, while I thought about people being mutilated. When I got older it became more definitely sexual, and when I found guro, it just clicked. How about for you? Was it something you gradually got into?
As a kid, I liked to injure myself, not because I was an emo or wanted attention, but because I loved to see the flow of blood and because my scarred body looked beautiful. I would do things like punch a brick wall until blood was pouring out of my knuckles and sometimes the bone was visible. I've alway loved blood and pain, so when a friend tried to shock me by showing me a guro pic, I was unfazed. That is how the love began.
I've always had a huge fetish for sadistic girls. That, coupled with my fascination with blood as a child lead me to looking up guro after learning about it on 4chan. I had a morbid fascination and was pleased when I found Gurochan. Strangely, my real-life self is a huge moralfag who feels guilty when she kills a bug... I honestly don't know why I like guro so much if I am opposed to violence in real life... Maybe it's some kind of outlet for my suppressed emotions or something... I mean, one minutie I'm scolding some boy in my class for killing a helpless praying mantis, the next minute I'm at home playing MGS3 and shotgunning soldiers in the crotch or here on Gurochan...
Maybe I'm overthinking it.
I've been having dreams of guro since I was little. There was a Hercules remake with huge robots the hero had to destroy, and that inspired me and I could control my dreams at that age (around 7), and had this 50's pin-up girl card set. So I put it together at night and started with plainly torturing Hercules, then came futas (yep, started with that), and then moved on to normal girls. But yeah, this "Let's torture Hercules" was where it all started, I just loved how he struggled in the grasp of a huge robotic scorpion! :P
I've also seen some weird movies and cartoons including Star Wars and some awesome and old anime and I just loved Transformers.
I'm a shy girl in real life, so yeah, maybe this sort of thing is an outlet like Orgulla said. I had violent fantasies when I was younger, both sadistic and masochistic. I never thought of them as sexual though. I was also fascinated by extreme gore and violence, I used to go to torture.net all the time when it was around to look at pictures of mutilated corpses and such. This was probably when I was 13 or so, I can't remember being into such things earlier than that. I also used to read a lot of violent stories. One thing that sticks out the most as to when it started becoming sexual was when I was maybe 15, I bought a book about Vlad the Impaler in a second hand shop and when I got to the part that described in detail how he tortured his victims, I got really turned on and would re-read that part over and over. Well fairly recently (in the past year), I was telling a friend how turned on action movies get me when they have a lot of blood and guts and he goes, "well at least you aren't into guro. That shit is sick." And I go "What's guro?" and now here I am. btw, OP, what sort of project are you doing exactly?
OP here - Well, I'm kind of lying when I say "project". I'm actually giving a panel on Guro at an upcoming convention. (Not saying which, because it ruins the anon factor).
I had seen a few guro pics on random hentai sites before, and they always sort of scared me. Then I found out one of my friends was into it, and I started looking at it more. Since then, its become kind of like an outlet for me. I went from liking it for its shock-value, more to liking it because it just...makes me happy. It's not like any real people are getting hurt, and yet it involves things that could be done to real people and shows possible reactions of said people. It's remarkable in that sense, at least to me...especially from an artistic point of view.
basically extremely pessimistic point of view on life and reading "American psycho"
Zombies did it for me. It is sexually arousing to see someone getting eaten. Especially girls.
If it's a panel, I hope you'll have some sort of security there as people may get agitated by some of the things you might say (people can be stupid, to put it mildly) and make sure you mention that they keep an open mind as they listen to you and that they might just learn something.
If you have time be sure to read up on the history of guro (if not, it doesn't really matter).
But anyway, I hope it all goes well for you and make sure you have fun! :).
I've said a number of times before how I got into guro and if the older discussions hadn't been deleted you probably would have a lot more material to go over. I hope they'll be back one day.
Anyhoo, as a little kid I always enjoyed hurting myself. It just felt really good and amuse me.
If I'd get hurt somewhere I'd try and go back and try and re-enact what happened in some way.
As I grew older I found that the feeling was sexual.
Then much later I found the internet and searched around for images that could satisfy me, found the chans and later Gurochan in late 2005 and now here I am.
>>15
Yeah, it's actually mostly about the history/evolution of guro (and different sub types and stuff). As well as, obviously, a gory slideshow. Because I didn't really know how else to approach talking about guro for an hour. But I'm hoping to also at least partly address why people are so interested in guro.
The topic of the panel should be pretty clear to people who come, and I'll warn them again at the beginning that they should probably leave if subjects like rape or extreme violence are going to upset them, you never know I guess, but it's not like I'm condoning actual rape and violence. It could still get out of hand, but it's a pretty major con, so I'm not too worried.
>>16
According to chaos theory: the more complex the structue, the less error needed for a major failure in it. And the human mind is extremely complicated. Also, norms are basically generated by society exactly to hold back people's various tendencies that would cause it to fracture to opposing individuals.
I'd suggest you look for prints of older guro images to give more of an insight into the history.
Check out the title 'Bloody Ukiyo-e' aka 'Bloody Ukiyo-e 1866-1988 (28 Scenes of Murder and Verse)' for something along these lines if you haven't seen it already.
It's basically artwork done by Suehiro Maruo and Kazuichi Hanawa who were inspired by older guro artists and their work, how their work relates to them, and what they feel about the world and their take on events that happened. As well as other things.
There are some explanations of what is depicted in both english and japanese within too.
Hopefully it may add something to your discussion.

Here's a blog post by the guys at Same Hat for more info on it:

Try looking around for other images such as these.
You don't have to dwell too much on it (these are just some suggestions you can think about), but it may help some with offering you some ideas on what to say and is an interesting read to say the least.
I wouldn't recommend offering up too graphic images in a public setting such as a convention.
If possible, it'd be nice if you filmed it in some way too as many of us may miss it since we don't know which convention it'll be held at. Or at least pictures so we can all see what it was like.
If not, it doesn't matter too much.
Good luck!
>>18
Yeah, I've actually seen those already, but thanks for the link anyway, it's great stuff - definitely including some of it in my panel.
Public, yes, but it's also an 18+ panel - I've attended hentai and yaoi panels in the past, and they have all had their fair share of overtly sexual images (and even a guro image or two). And as for gore, I've watched Ichi the Killer and Meatball Machine in the TV rooms at this convention in previous years. I think it should be all right.
The panel is being filmed, but I have no idea whether I'll have access to the footage - if I do, I'll certainly link it here after the fact. Thanks!
Fantastic. Hopefully they do offer you the footage (you're the one being filmed after all, right? :D).

It's not the one in Vancouver BC, is it? If so I'll drop in and say hi. I'll probably be helping with the Touhou panel. :)
>>21
It isn't, sorry. Is there a guro panel at a Vancouver convention?
>>17
I'm not sure how I feel about applying chaos theory to psychology in such a straightforward way, but I guess it's an interesting way of looking at it. That aside, I can certainly see why liking guro would be classified as "aberrant". But calling it a "major failure" seems a little over the top? Is it even really that abnormal, current societal standards aside? (hangings and cat mutilation were popular forms of entertainment until pretty recently, after all)
I'm female, I'm also pretty young (I shouldn't really be here, heh). When I was a little kid I used to watch horror movies all the time and read stories by Poe, Stephen King (mostly his short stories like what's in skeleton crew) and other horror authors (my parents didn't really care what I watched/read). When I first got on the internet I used to search for gross stuff like serial killers, dead babies, freaks, etc. and that's how I discovered gurochan. I'm not really here for sexual reasons, I just like morbid stuff.
I love his short stories too.
It's a shame his writing took a downward turn after Nightmares And Dreamscapes (another one of his short story books) in my opinion, but be sure to read some of his longer works such as It if you haven't already.
Also, be sure to check out any Junji Ito manga like Uzumaki, Tomie, Gyo if you like horror-type stuff without anything too sexual in there.
Fun stuff.
>>25
Yeah, I've read some of his longer books. I love Junji Ito, I've bought uzumaki, gyo and museum of terrors, I wish they'd translate more of his stuff...
Agreed, his work is amazing. It's a travesty they're not releasing more.
Hopefully they will though, given enough time.
Personally, I always had a fascination for the morbid. At a young age I would deliberately seek out "scary stories" and read the backs of horror flicks (something I still do regularly while renting, I like the low-budget ones.) Sadly, I was terrified of most "graphic" depictions of violence, and it always felt like some void for me, like some kind of a big let-down. I didn't want to watch the latest splatter-film in the theaters because the concept of graphic violence scared me. I gradually began reading up on the people these films were based off. I guess I eventually stumbled into stuff like this, and I developed a sort of appreciation for it. It's not necessarily like reading Jeffery Dahmer's police report, it has an odd sort of artistic value to it, and it helps me feel content with missing the latest horror-film. I think guro has a certain flair you can't capture with a camera.
Admittedly, though, de Sade's "The 120 Days of Sodom" is where I place my line. My moral compass forbids me to go any further.
Hans Bellmer! and to a lesser extent, Egon Schiele. not trdaitional guro, but cerainly grotesque.
My inclination towards guro also stems from horror movies and books. Like when I went to the video store when I was really little I used to walk past the horror movies and remember being frightened by the covers with zombies/mutilated bodies, etc. When I was around 13 I got over my insane fear of horror movies and began to watch them incessantly. Even though I started with more Japanese horror, I have gravitated to American horror which I have found does not rely on fear/suspense but rather shock images and violence. I was intrigued by the more apt description of many American "horror" movies as simply slasher films, and thus I was ready to find their applications to real life, their inspirations and bases. I became very interested in serial killers- most importantly their M.O. What they did to bodies, etc., how long could a body last under extreme torture and circumstances
As for guro, I appreciate this genre of art (strictly speaking art here, I haven't really watched any anime with "true" guro, besides Higurashi, but I do enjoy reading it occasionally, especially Uziga Waita!) because all artists deploy human suffering differently. The things some people come up with never ceases to astound me as well, from the obscure to fascinating. I don't incorporate my own sexuality for gore fetishes or even get turned on by guro, so I mainly appreciate it for aesthetic appeal.
I got my first erection when i was like 7 thinking about hanging people, 11 years latter I found guro on sickest sites while looking for snuff and rape pronz. I just love the pain in thier eyes and anguished screams.
Also, I've had guro-esque dreams for as long as I can remember, one kinda cool one was as I was raping some girl I went to kiss her, when she opened her mouth I forced my tounge to grow like a couple of feet while inside her asphyxiating her with my tounge in her lungs.
Anyrate hope that helps.
Male here. My childhood friends and I used to play fighting games when we were young (6-7?). We got addicted to Mortal Kombat during those times and played it amongst ourselves, following the rules. Eventually though, we concluded we needed to have a reason, equivalent to dieing, as to why we don't want to lose.
Not sure which one of us suggested it, but the idea came up of stripping the loser naked during the Finish position. We tried it and we all came to enjoy it. Fatalities were exciting and a punishment, without the physical pain. Things escalated from there, as we had both a couple girls and boys playing. The Fatalities became more sexual in nature (I remember I was forced to suck my friend's penis once). I still don't think any of us feel hurt by it, it was fun at the time...
Anyways, later on I realized I wasn't bisexual, I wanted girls only, so I stopped playing with them. But the fetish remained, and I got a chance to do it again with a gf of mine years later. She let me kill her in so many ways.
The only lingering desire, other than the very occasional full-blown MK experience, is to have my girl do the finish position at the end of blowjobs. No Fatality, but the position of vulnerability is the biggest turn on in the world.
Anyways, nerdiness of 4chan led me to here one day, and that's that. By the way, any guys out there that want to bring their fetish to the bedroom, just be careful! I honestly don't think many girls will have much of an issue with it as long as it's only every once in awhile. :)
Found out about it on Encyclopedia dramatica, found the gurochan website, liked it (especially /g/), and here I am.
Yeah, so I cut myself. I started when I was 9 (now I'm 12) and I still enjoy it. Drawing inverted crosses and pentagrams with my own blood on a paper is really great, I'm a satanist. I also like amputations and all that stuff. Anyway, noone knows about it yet, only my parents always ask me "where did you get all those scars" so I have to think of stupid excuses. And I act weird in public, saying morbid things and liking discusting stuff. Once someone crashed with their car in the street, their head broke so the brain and blood was everywhere, me and my friends saw it and all my frieds were paralyzed and in shock, but I loved it. Now they don't talk to me anymore because they think I'm weird. :/
I once had a strange dream, it was about my 4-year old cousin, in that dream I gave him a blowjob and we had anal. I still remember that dream. <3
I'm usually a really nice and normal person and not violent at all.
I basically got into guro through reading suehiro maruo mangas.
I've also got a fascination into spree killers/serial killers.
What i tell people is that i like it for the art and the story mostly.
Pedophile here. Looking at gore alleviates my daily frustration of realizing I'll never get laid. I discovered this at age 20.
>>35
<3
>>38
You know there was once a time I got with a guy from 4chan that felt that way too >_>;
Good gosh, did anyone noticed there are a lot of trolls in here recently?
>>39
It seems 4Chan has been going out lately, here and now.
That would explain the raise in numbers of trolls in here.
Found Waita Uziga's site back in '98, loved it ever since.... ahhh the good old days when unseen guro was still plentiful. How I miss them.
>>40
He did end up getting laid...once a week.
I wasn't even into him. I mean he was a friend sure,
but like there was nothing about him that stood out that made me generally attracted to him. I kind of think it was the whole idea that he was from 4chan. A guy I met on 4chan.
that's it. :x owf it was funny I guess, and when he's got a family or something going for him someday, and someone's like - How'd you lose your virginity?
He's gonna remember the 15 yr old from 4chan. Or was I 14? I don't even remember.
Hahahaha.
Oh wow! I thought I had responded to this thread but I guess not.
Well, it's been a life struggle for me that I get turned on by rape porn. Cos I was raped when I was about 5 on a nearly daily basis till I was 7.
So since then, I've had my ups and downs on the whole issue, but something consistant and completely unrelated was that I always fantasized about "rough sex" and then found rape porn.
And despite my own psychological conflicts, it was near fact that I was sexually aroused by rape porn, it was just a matter of admitting it and bringing it out into my sex life. ( For the most part I was having vanilla sex for awhile.)
For a long time I was having problems seperating my sexuality with my mental issues about being abused as a kid.I think around 16, I was finally able to accept myself and seperate the two - though now and then - RARELY NOW - do I break down and feel like I'm just a twisted freak.
But anyways, since seperating the two things I've openly indulged in BDSM, polyamory, and swinging. For the most part I was messing with Master/slave, Dominant/submissive stuff but lately I've realized that I'm a masochist, and I've been just experimenting with the Sadism/masochism aspect. I've been with a guy for almost 4 years now, and he started off an innocent corruption free catholic when we met but now he's the same if not worse than I am - except he's also a Satanist. I don't follow any religion.
ANYWAYS - around when I was 16-17 I realized I had a terrible fear of gore. I would walk out on horror movies. But also this time was a time of reformation - I wanted to improve myself. So without fuss and a new way of life, I rode my first real big rollercoaster, and watched a horror movie by myself, and also began learning about taratulas. Haha. So I became fascinated in bugs, I don't turn down anything that pumps up your adrenaline, and I became obsessed with horror and gore. I also wanted to be a film maker for awhile so during this time when I was 17-18 it was my dream to be a horror film maker. And that's when I had remember gurochan. I started going to snuff sites and other sites with REAL gore - goregasm,ogrish etc* and found my way to gurochan. Already having been a hentai/anime artist for awhile I was attracted to the content and also the way people seem to talk as a community.
So yeah, it just all seemed to fall into place from there. At first I only liked light gore, then it just got worse and worse. I think my only limit is poop. hahaha. >_> eww;
These days I don't want to be a film maker though. It's my dream to be a doctor. I want to be a medical examiner. Go figure, hahaha....
>>46
Awww, such kind gesture towards the pedophile community. We need more people like you.
Though assuming you wouldn't be this flamboyant without your rape experiences, this means more 5 year olds need to be raped. Goddamned, why is it that for everything "good" in this world to happen my virginity always has to be the sine qua non?
>>48
...this means more 5 year olds need to be raped....
Maybe in the past I might be really upset or hate you, but I'm not like that anymore so I'm just going to do this:
^-^;!
Maybe he meant it. Truth be told, the kids who grow up to QQ about their early sexual experiences are usually just losers. I would know.
Hello there! Male here.
I have always had those violent fantasies about pretty much getting revenge on the people that bullied me throughout my school life.
Then I grew up and understood what a shy and wierd shithead of a child I was.
So over the summer vacations before highschool I changed myself into more outgoing person. But there is still a sense of void inside. I fill it with cute anime girls slashed open. It helps me cope with daily stresses and phobias (mostly fear of crowds and larger groups of people) and makes me feel special.
It's like a secret identity. Guro-Man! ^_^
My emotional scars can't compare to most of yours but I can see a pattern here. ^_^
Gah, I feel like a fucking weirdo here.
I don't have any bad emotional scars as a child. I wasn't abused, bullied, neglected. I had a large variety of friends, a loving family. I have no social phobia, have had a single girlfriend in my time so far that went well for the most part until I had to move away to college, and things have always went fairly well, aside from the fact that I'm lazy and it bites me in the ass frequently.
Not sure if I should read anything into it, but it certainly seems like many of you have horrid emotional scars from your childhoods that sent you on a downward spiral that ended you here at gurochan...
No such reason for me. I'm just naturally attracted to violence and submissive-ness sexually. All in all, I kinda feel like I'm one of the weirdest ones here. x.x But what do you guys think?
>>52 Not sure if I should read anything into it, but it certainly seems like many of you have horrid emotional scars from your childhoods that sent you on a downward spiral that ended you here at gurochan...
who said anything about the spiral ending?
On a serious note though, while I do have some trauma as a child, I don't believe it has much bearing on my enjoyment for guro. I could be mistaken, but I don't think so.
>>49
Since you're taking it out of context like that, I bet it still pisses you off somewhat. Which is pretty reasonable, I guess.
Gnbs and cz lie and is f when i was wen an wz whrn i wes wes es es was when when i was was was oooog gngst and dden mental asbargers an autism rape med i'munique meyygggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggg unqieue special lie frguher oooonnnn den tukch ngi
Female here,
Yeah, raped too when i was loli but got over it very well. Humuliated by others since a child too, actually i still don't get what the problem is since i'm pretty much normal. I'm kind of aware that the life of those people by now it's stuck and sucks a lot so i really don't have nothing against them.
But,
I got very arroused about fictional rape, imagining i'm still a loli turns me on, specially when doing some ageplay, i love to feel myself pure and innocent and get raped hard and sick by others. Submissive, loves to serve but when i'm upset and strange figure stares at me, a girl that it's totally the oposite of this one that likes to abuse the power concived to her and such. Lolis and shotas, actually the sex isn't a difference to me since i'm pleased and worshiped.
In other extreme cases, i like to fantasie a fuck my ex's exgirlfriends and make them my sexslaves until they die and you must add some guro to it. And with people i hate, feeling i have the total power and they just scum it turns me on than ever, and specially when they don't enjoy it. When they feel confused and start to licking it also it's interesting.
I think this sounds very bdsm but it's kind of my prefference when guroing.
I never had any big trauma in my childhood.
I always just liked hurting myself and others, even as a child.
I just enjoyed the pain, but never had any big instance of being abused or anything of the sort.
The pain and inflicting it on others was just nice.
>>61
OBJECTION!
HE IS ABSOLUTLY HAVING A SEIZURE! bangs on the table
>>62
Objection denied, Mr. SArCasM. Try to be more cunning next time.
>>64
Oh, I'm sorry, Your Highness, should I go get you your coffee and tea now?
I got into Guro when my buddy started to RP cutting me in half on msn xD
He sent me this site and I was hooked =D
I used to go on guro stuff and harass ppl there then I gave up and got into it. although I've always liked this sort of thing anyway :[
Well, for the first time i saw Guro picture that's make me so scared.
But, each day... i'm feeling that Guro is so i started to looking for some Guro picture eventually leading for a thread that full of Guro (also this website was on that thread ^_^)
Anyways, i'm a man
My mind was allways showing me pictures like this. It wasn't my thought, but just like someone has turned on this bloody channel in my head. That's why I really like guro.
I don't see any representative from /s/ here, anyone? or maybe the guro OP means just about /f/ and /g/?
I rarely post in /dis/ but this time I'll try to speak up somethings (not that I hate discussion but english is not my language and typing in english means double processing in my brain) but I see people here are pretty culture and I learn a lot from /dis/ so I think I can give something for read.
I visit gurochan, all the boards. Yes, /s/ is definitely the most open minded, maybe because they accept shitty things? haha. Its a compliment, really, I visit /s/ regularly, more often than the other two and I'm glad people there not like 4channers who will bark to anything, I like kind people. Of course /s/ will bark to real scat but this is anime board so it is fair. Anyway, I treat the content from this site into two categories; /g/ and /f/ is for guro, /s/ is for ero.
Let me starts from /s/ first, because I'm more regular there and I first came to this site because of that board. I think what you called childhood theory might be true in my case. Back then in my grade school, my class had a picnic using a bus. There is one girl in my class that wants to go to restroom to poop, I'm about 11 or 12 years old that time, but the bus can't stop because its in highway and she tried to hold it but in the end she had to let it out in the plastic bag (the teacher always bring it in case someone vomit, btw eventhough I'm into /s/ but I'm just into scat and fart, vomit is not my thing). Off course the boys can't see that and actually I know about the accident later from the girls when I accidentally eavesdropping. I think thats the first trigger since the girl who did it is so pretty (I'm no lolicon, at that time her age is the same as mine). In my junior high, I have a friend, an upperclassman, she's a girl and quite vulgar. She sometimes told me when ate something bad and then had a stomachache or diarrhea. Could be the second trigger, because when I know about fapping, my imagination is about a beautiful girl who desperately need to go to poop and in the end had to do it but not in a toilet, either in her pants, grass, bushes, etc. That's quite funny because later I found out that what's called having sex isn't involving any shit AT ALL. When I found out about anime and finally doujinshi in my high school days, I'm quite surprised that most of people can't tolerate it, even my friend who likes rape and tentacle (in my high school era, those two thing are what considered to be the sickest) will deleted doujin that contains scat on it. At that time, I still didn't know that its called scat, only by the power of internet I later know that there's a term for that thing, which lead me to gurochan's /s/ (you don't know how happy I am when I first come to this board, lol) Anyway, even now, none of my otaku friend IRL knows that I love scat. I once had a gf and I never told her either. In my view, scat is not that "guro", I mean relating to something hurtful or inflicting pain, maybe its because my first definition of scat didn't contain eating, bondage or such (though I still had a soft spot when it comes to enema :3). Watching a girl shit for me is like watching her masturbate, face flushed, feeling of embarrassment and relief, loosing control and giving in to pleasure, things like that. Also, if an attractive girl told me about her toilet experience, even if its just for a joke or light chat, it still can give me a boner, lol. Another good thing about scat is that they're less cencored. Doujin usually cencored vaginas but the butthole and the poop left out uncencored, even in real videos too. However I just like scat to the point of watching, not eating. Night Shift Nurses did provoke me a little though (that "how can you say you love her if you can't even eat her poop?" line) but I guess its still too disgusting for me.
I'll write about /g/ and /f/ now. Like I said earlier, I visit those two board not for ero content, and for me those board is just like a secondary place to visit in a trip. I maybe never go to painful guro if I'm not experiencing some very sad moment. Yes, its so cliche but my gf that I date for about 4 years left me with another man. At first when we sometimes met, we still say hi and do some pointless chat but I haven't meet or talk with her again for one year or so, I heard that she's married now. Do I have a grudge? of course, but I didn't confront her. First, she has her own life now. And second, my family has quite a name which will be ruined if I do something stupid just because of that. Instead, I go to this board to vent out all that I feel. Maybe it would sound interesting to you, I always prefer if the person who did guro in the picture is a girl or woman. The victim doesn't matter a he or she. What I got from watching the pictures is not sexual feeling but kind like an emotional comfort, something soothing. I don't have much understanding about catharsis but maybe its something like that. And I can't say that I oppose people who want to take revenge (I know the pain and I probably would do it if I have power and nothing to loose) but enjoying guro can be quite a medicine too. About /f/, I think my concept of beauty also has been twisted since that. And maybe because I'm a somekind of freak now, seeing a creature that so human but not a human or vice versa, I feel some strange closeness.
Let me tell you first: this was one biggest post I have read on this board. But no tl:dr factor, at all :)
Second, your vision of scat made me warm up a little for it. I know that some day I will get horny for it like I horned up for futa, loli and guro eventually. You speeded the process pretty much ;)
The idea of guro, being an emotional cleanser, the katharsiss is pretty neat. Often when I feel bad I go to gurochan to search for this rush, for this feeling in my stomach that will make me reset my feelings.
Cheers!
>>76
Meh, scat is really the worst thing. Eat poop or smelling shit, I get nauseas only from imaginning it.
Seriously, guro is just a kittie cat compared to scat.
Want to make someone disgusting, show a picture of someone eating poop out of someone else's ass.

If that wasn't supposed to be a trolling post, you might want to learn that scat is part of guro.
You mean gore.
>>80
I know, but I can't stand scat despite of my tastes for guro.
Really, just a mis-understood...
hmm.. I guess while I'm writing late at night I might post a few stories... Let's see... My dad used to sit me in front of the tv to watch horror flicks at 3 years old. I used to have nightmares, but I wanted desperately to bond with my father so I put up with it. I wanted to be interested in something he was interested in. I'd have violent nightmares that would haunt me for a long time. I have a hard time sleeping by myself now.
My first boyfriend was pretty intense. He was 13 and I was 12. I was scared of him a little and I had a pretty good reason. He would throw rocks at my window to wake me up and have me hang out with him all day. He was manic depressive and took his medications when he "felt like it." One night we were hanging out late and he said "check this out" and slit both his wrists in front of me. i was so horrified I cried all night, but I said nothing to my mom. A few days later, he broke into my house and tried to rape me. I managed to get help and he left me alone from then on. He eventually moved away and I never saw or heard from him.
I was very close to my mom because my parents split up when I was 10. They would be very violent. Guns were pointed at each other, things were set on fire, there were plenty of fists thrown... I used to leave the house alot because of it and my mom got heavy into drugs. It eventually gave her asthma and killed her. It was very hard for me to deal with.
I moved out of state that week and lived with my aunt. She's always been good to take care of me and my little brother, but it wasn't the emotional care that we needed. My brother and I learned to get along and take care of each other the best we could. We always talked about our problems and it was probably the only way we would've ever gotten along.
I was in alot of counseling that never helped me. My dad would call here and there, but he was homeless at the time my mom died. It took him a long time to recover.
I spent a few years in damaging relationships, using boys to replace the growing void of hate and hopelessness i felt. I never felt pretty or accepted. It took my first love's help for that. I was 15 and the guy was sweet and caring. He made me feel good about myself and I never felt alone... It seemed like everything I needed, but he had a problem... he really liked the idea of drinking blood. He got me into cutting so we could drink each other's blood. It was sickening, but I eventually warmed up it and began enjoying it. I cried alot at first though... I ended up losing my virginity to him and we stayed together until I was 18.
I watched alot of horror, but I never was able to handle any rape scenes. I still can't actually... I watched alot of violent animes. Battle Angel had me hooked as a teen. I loved the ideas and also Fatal Frame had alot of hangings. I drew very violent images and I started to take it sexually. I then was somehow brought here. It's been an off and on sexual thing. I am very picky though.
From your point of view, Copy&Pasta shouldn't belong on /dis/ neither.
This is a text-board meant for suggestions, complainants, ideas, and of course; discussion.
>I guess while I'm writing late at night I might post a few stories...
BTW, that is not a copypasta. Anon clearly states he/she was writing a story; stories belong to /lit/.
Prove me wrong.

>>76 It's really a novells size^_^ You must become a writer.
What about scat - I don't think it's something that is more terrible than gore.
About freakshow. People allways said to me that I have a perverted sense of beauty^_^ Maybe that's why I found creatures, which we can see in /f/ quiet pretty, and very attractive. I even had dreams when i dated different type of them. For example I had a dream like this:
http://cs1259.vkontakte.ru/u5249764/26222344/x_0c5c0d7b.jpg
My local arcade had the game "Time Killers." I was 7 or so, and was playing as the girl, Matrix. I got systematically dismembered in the first round by the alien creature Mantazz. After the fights the game displays a side-by-side after-the-fight closeup of both characters, along with the scores and all that. Mantazz was intact, but in Matrix's frame was empty - except for a bloody stump with a spine and a windpipe.
I was thinking about it all day. "Her head is just .. gone! That has to be lethal .. you can't survive that! She's dead! That's what her picture looks like now!" etc, just obsessing over it.
I still do. A bloody stump where your head used to be..
>>88 you should try it in reality^_^
>>87
My point exactly, it's all about tastes.
Calling one board "sick" or "disgusting" because you don't browse it (or because you don't like it) results from being biased in your drawn guro preferences.
I wish everyone here was as tolerant as you are, but hey, we all think different anyway, and that's what makes us unique.
>"Her head is just .. gone! That has to be lethal .. you can't survive that! She's dead! That's what her picture looks like now!"
Reminds me of Jenova. Now I can't play FF7 again and not laugh hard when the scene happens.
>>90 yes.
And that's making our life even more interesting^_^
wow... okay, what i meant was a story of my childhood. jesus christ, it was like 3 in the morning. give me a god damned break. it also explains my feelings of how i perceive guro and how i got to liking it and being on here regularly.
>>92 sorry, I didn't understand that, but now I see
Ha ha ha, thats awesome that you used to do that as a little kid. I'm also a girl, when i was little, like 8, i used to push my crotch up against like the side of my desk or a tabe, and i would push my legs together as tight as i could and it all hurt really bad, but yaand things like that, i didn't understand at the time that it was a sexual urge that i was trying to get out.
As i grew up though i got skrewed up, just for the lulz, and i was looking at overchan and gurochan said don't look here and you've been warned and stuff, and i'm really rebelious. But ya, kinky stuff is pretty, porn is just a harder to do type of art in my opinion. I don't really like kinky stuff myself, i used to alot, but i started taking it too far and stuff so i stopped.
But pictures are still pretty, oh and also, i like blood, and i have alot of goth friends and stuff, we're all freaks. YAY! I love this sight though, cause i never knew other people were into this kinda stuff :DMale Here...
Sorry, I do not have a fancy story to tell... I got into guro when I was little. I love collecting things and guro artwork happened to be on a list. I started with Waita Uziga like most people. My first view at guro was on 5chan. I guess taboo things get me interested in it. I am also into lolicon and even Michael Jackson. I'm still collecting things having 14 gigs of Mozart, entire discography of Michael Jackson etc. Who knows maybe the real reason I like guro is hidden deep in my mind somewhere.
Mine is just like 88 up there, but instead of Time Killers, mine was horror movies. At first being around 7 I was shocked when some big breasted blonde would get disimbowled with a toothbrush, but after a while, I started to like it. Now don't get me wrong I don't like it in that way, but I have a piece in my heart where in one scene there's a 50 person orgy, and in the next there's nothing but indistinguishable goop splattered throughout. Yet I can never see it happan to an animal, not even a mouse.
WELL YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ALL JUST LOST THE GAME
i made them myself. i started drawing sexy girls barely dressed or nude. one time i made a prisioner girl cuffed to the wall, then i gave her whipping marks. i found this more exciting so i keep drawing, up the time i draw a girl about to be executed by guillotine. it come to my mind a young princess who was to be impaled, cut in half and roasted at the same time as she was to be beheaded. From then on, i keep drawing, mostly beheading but also butchering and impaling
Female here.
Never had any family, bully, etc, troubles at all. In fact, I was raised the other way arround, in a loving and empathetic enviroment.
But, when I was little, whenever I watched a kids movie and got pissed with some character, I loved to spend hours thinking on ways to torture it, and oh boy, if I enjoyed that! But back then it didn't have any sexual conotation (I think). Then when I was still young I got into porn, but after a little while, I got bored and moved to hardcore and violence, and started having fetishes. And then I found guro. It was just meant to be.
Must admit, if the subject doesn't have one of my fetishes or so, is kinda hard for me to find the sexual thrill, unless is a new taboo. I just love new things. I wonder if I'm really guro loving :<
Oh shit- I forgot:
I've never injured myself, nor fantasized about it; I prefer a long and cruel story behind the guro that just some random beheading or death; and now that I think about it, there something about having a power fetish or something behind my likening for guro.
man, i feel like another weirdo here (>>52)
male, never had any really bad experiences in childhood... sure, i was bullied by kids at school, but the again i was a bully for others too... mom and dad got divorced so i lived with my grandparents, who were pretty strict on morals and stuff and never let me watch anything not intended for a kid my age. grandpa was somewhat mentally unstable, as you can expect of someone who survived a nazi concentration camp- he used to beat me, then he apologised and felt sorry and said it was becausse i was behaving badly- well, i was, i was a kid, and behaving badly is what kids do- running, yelling, breaking stuff...
still, one of the ery first things i remember is being like 7 y/o and drawing- with my kiddie crayons- a picture of a naked woman lying on her back and having a huge knife sticking out of her chest... feeling strangely excited... then trying to get rid of it so my grandparents won't notice...
this was like twenty-something years ago. i still do draw things like that. on the other hand "regular" porn turns me on too. and even romantic crap like walking on a beach at moonlight holding hands can get me a boner. go figure.
I don't have a traumatic past either, and was pretty much raised in a 'normal', stable environment.
I can't recall an exact date I first found out about guro, it was kind of a long time ago. Back then I had just discovered 4chan and was mostly getting obsessed with lolicon. So once in a while I saw guro there or my online friends would link me to this place, as a joke. I was never disgusted/shocked, and sometimes it was kind of amusing to me.
Otherwise guro didn't really interest me. But now that I think about it, one of my favorite artists drew a lot of guro-style stuff, I just never connected it as being the same thing. So technically I guess that would be the first time I started liking it.
I kind of rediscovered this place again a few months ago. I started talking with an ex-coworker and found out that he self injures which really interested me. I know guro isn't really the same thing but I kind of use this place as my outlet for my silly fascination with SI.
I first got into Guro a long while back, but it was nothing more than a second glance.
I came to Gurochan looking for /s/, but the recollections of gore/vore from my past came back and I found myself reading and looking at it more and more.
Now, I'm pretty happy.
I'm into death metal and grindcore.
Violent music and violent pictures are great, they help me releave my stress. :)
I'm female and in to guro, though not because I'm sexually aroused by it. I just appreciate the art behind the gore. I love the detail a guro artist will use to share the body with people, while mutating and mutilating it.
Just my thoughts. :]
I've always been kinda nerdy and weird, and this led me to being bullied a lot and treated like an outcast, making me hate most of the people around me, but also because normal people are considered good at heart, I also grew up with a bot of hatred for the conservative morals and values of the society we live in (terms like "family values", "positive thinking" and "community spirit" annoy the FUCK out of me) I wanted to hurt the people I hated and commit the taboos we consider oh-so-serious, (but I could not do it in real life obviously) so I started fantasizing about it. Then I found guro and it just became a supplement to releasing my frustration.
My 'interests' tend to be all over the place, with an emphasis on the weird. When a friend pointed me to Gurochan, I found myself less than thrilled with the /g/ and /s/ boards (violence and bodily wastes sicken me). However, /f/ was right up my alley.
I honestly don't know how I got into it. I do know a friend showed me it, but I dunno how I really got into it. I mean, I'm sure most of us that visit /g/ have murderous thoughts, I know I do. So I guess guro satisfies my fantasy of killing.
Female here, I always loved horrifying my friends with graphic images described to them, I remember I first found rotten.com and had a hay-day grossing them out... I remember one friend in particular mentioning that 'that kind of stuff' could be a fetish. I thought he was nuts, who the fuck could get turned on by this shit?
And here I am today :)
I enjoy girls over boys having stuff happen to them, but as long as they don't want it, its aaaall good... my boyfriend thinks its weird but tends to ignore it... but he's into futa and there are some mild pics on the site I snuck onto his computer into his futa section, see how long before he notices, mehehe
Male. I've always had a cold appretiation for everything that involves blood, preferably without large wounds. Not that I don't like to see some raw, bloody flesh, but I think pure blood has a more artistic feel to it, as it's a vessel for countless metaphors. For that same reason I tend to find blood quite erotic, while everything involving mutilation and spilling one's insides out doesn't affect me at all.
...Female, but I hope to be rich enough to become male someday.
I'm not really sure. I know my big sister introduced me to the site for the actual art. I started saving it out of fascination, then it slowly turned erotic.
Now though, as I started looking back through old backup files, I found an old yaoi artist, one of the first we ever saved, she did stuff with James, but most of it included rape, abuse, and blood. perhaps thats where it started, but I'm not sure.
I am a female, and I began my sexual journey when I was approximately three years old. I know I'd begun rubbing myself then in secrecy due to shame, I suppose, but where I'd learned such modesty, I couldn't tell you..
Anyway, my nightly visions (dreams) as a child consisted of forceful measures where sexual actions were concerned, and I had become fascinated with things of the macabre nearly from within the womb albeit! My play thing was a skeleton, and well, my fingers, as you know.. ;)
I recall so many mornings, diddling my skittle beneath a green comforter.. Ah, good times.
Where these two aspects REALLY crisscrossed, I'm not sure, but I blame this, the filthy internet, as I was allowed and encouraged to develop further as a sick and twisted individual. :D
At ten years old, I sought out role playing with pedophiles, and more mature females, who would discuss with me insertion of many instruments into their own frothy pink-panty jaws.. My fantasies were of rape. I wanted a man, in his thirties, to rape me brutally.. and I began to mutilate myself.
Somewhere, it sparked in my mind, the intrigue of women, such as myself, being bound, and gagged, and force-fucked, and I reveled at the demented state of my own mind.
I could elaborate on this topic so thoroughly, but as this is /dis/ not /lit/, I'll hault for now, saying elsewise merely that I've been fortunate enough to engage in quite a few guro-related practices since I came to be more aware of my depravities.. . Yum.
I got into it a while ago. I've always loved zombie movies and the like, ever since I was a wee girl. I loved the ripping apart of bodies, I loved seeing the cores of people. Beauty in the barest form. And then, later, when I was older, to see pictures depicting people pleasuring themselves to such thoughts...
I only recently realized how much I love for my mates to physically harm me. Cutting, smacking, biting... I love feeling like I'm their special toy, to play with as they wish. (And then cuddling afterwards... I've roleplayed this thought many times)
I remember how I got into it. It was a dark and gloomy day, I and my pure and inoccent mind was watching a horror flick with my grandparents. I, by then, had already become numb to the suffering of other people. So there was this one scene where this woman got her neck sliced open and so I rewound it to see it again and I continued to do so until...well....I climaxed.
So I looked up more death online and ran into other stuff but it was not until one of my friends shared his feelings about guro that I really got into it. I began reading Mai-chan's daily life and other such things.
Of course I wish to be treated somewhat like Mai was only with out the whole ripping my body into peices. I just need a little abuse.
Male here.
Uh, well I got into it cause I am a horror, and gore. I was also the type that was always looking for the unusual in everything (including a way to influence my art).While I was looking, I found out about Suehiro Maruo. Plus I found a few torrents with his work and many more (Waita Uziga, Juan Gotoh, Jun Hayami, Shintaro Kago,etc). After that the rest is history.
I'm male, and I've been interested in GURO ever since I saw my first horror movie.
I think Ero Guro is more than just visual horror. It digs deep into the dark, cold recesses of our minds and shows us our fears and allows us to face them.
It is also a creative way to express our fears and uncertainties through art.
Female here and I can't really pinpoint when I realized Guro was my thing. I have always been into horror books and movies. Things that usually freaked other people out really made me excited. I went from Hentai like Demon Beast and Bible Black to Black Widow and Bondage Game. From there I went to breast expansion and somehow ended up at Guro when none of that was enough anymore. I'm still slightly a Furry lover, can't help that. I think it's mostly psychology with me though. For years, I read about what people do to others and themselves and always wondered just how far out can the world get. I guess I'm the proof that it can be pretty whacked!
Female. Not a normal family, but nothing worth of /lit/ just alcohol and AA. I remember of liking violence when I was really young... I imagined myself like a villain who tortures stupid humans, but I had not the slicest idea of what torture REALLY meant. I was a kid and thought it as a funny game... some of this thoughts are here with me today. I like violence/gore and art. When I found guro it was a chance of proving to myself that those two could mix in a way less teenage-stupid-angst...
So there's the sexual. It fascinates me. I don't allow me to see guro in a sexual way (that doesn't mean I don't), but it's hard to admit some fetiches.
More than that (way more!) gurochan is just a place where I can find art and interesting (scary) minds hidden in annonynous writting.
I'm here for the ideas... or at least that is what I'll keep saying to myself...rsrs.
