A what fetish?

It's like whumpo, y'know the study of whumpology.

A whump fetish is where one person gets off to a character being badly hurt.

According to TV Tropes, "There is a genre of fanfiction called "whump", which almost exclusively involves having the bad guys kidnapping one of the guys and doing painful things to them, often leaving them emotionally scarred, all so that they will be saved in the end."

So I guess... that as a fetish...?

I think the thing that they get off to is the savior element of it all. Like, "Look at me, I'm so amazing, I can save a completely helpless person from a completely ruthless enemy, and then that person needs comfort, so I can do that, too." There's usually no small amount of healing cock/pussy involved as well. So, the reader can get off on the character getting hurt and can still feel proud because the character is in a good position at the end despite all the crap that happened at the beginning.

I always thought that was hurt/comfort. Dagnab all these newfangled names for things...

Well, it is hurt/comfort, but more extreme and almost entirely physical. (For me angst would be emotional hurt without much resolution, hurt/comfort would be physical and/or emotional hurt with resolution, and whump is a subcategory of hurt/comfort with extreme physical and possibly emotional hurt with a resolution.)

Also, I like your icon.

Ah, more physical than emotional, I didn't think about that, now things are clearing up.

Thanks! I quite like yours too. :)

Aw for some reason I thought getting off on whump was specifically getting off on the abuse of douchey/evil/full-of-themselves characters.

Guess I need a new word.

In my experience, whump is all about getting off on the abuse of characters whose suffering provokes sympathy in the reader. "Aw, poor Character X, all these horrible things are happening to him, and he's in so much pain! I just want to cuddle him better. Beat up on him some more, Author!"

(Anonymous) 2013-03-26 01:57 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, what I was talking about was more of a "sadism gets me off but I like it more when bad things happen to bad (or at least arrogant) people." Missed the mark with that one.

I used to think one's bosom was one's bum, though. So it ain't the first time. (And that's a word with a dictionary definition)

(Anonymous) 2013-03-26 03:33 pm (UTC)(link)
And here I thought whump was mostly about the visual appeal of attractive guys with bruises and bloody lips and stuff.
