Fantasy Lovers - What's Your Favorite Kind?

It seems that when it comes to lovers, the human imagination just isn't fully satisfied with the normal, everyday human being. Instead of using the ho-hum characters who constantly surround us in the real world, we endeavor to create the most fantastical creatures to titillate our mental senses. Judging from the plethora of fantasy art and TV shows out there (think Buffy, Dark Angel, even the good old Xena and Wonder Woman!) I'd say these little indulgent escapades into other sexual worlds is something most people do...even if they won't readily admit to doing it. At once there is both the feeling that you are being silly in a little-kid-daydreaming kind of way, as well as the knowledge that having a fantasy about the proverbial monster-under-your-bed coming out and having his (or her!) wicked way with you is decidedly a naughty adult thought indeed!

The variations of these lovers is astounding, and I'm sure everyone has their particular favorite...probably rooted in some strange psychological incident that happened to us when we were infants or toddlers. Ghosts, witches, fairies, angels, devils, demons, half-animal half-human things, aliens...and my all time favorite...Vampires! I am in no way ashamed to admit that the modern idea of a gorgeous man seducing me and sinking his sharp teeth into my neck at the very moment that he sinks his *ahem*...Well, you get the point. Luckily there are lots of books that center around this theme so I am clearly not alone! And while I do occasionally venture into the realm of werewolves, the particular reasons behind my addiction to vampire men will certainly be discussed in a future post.

So my wonderful readers, my question for you today is, of course, Do you ever fantasize about non-human lovers? What are they? What turns you on about them?

Ps...This picture is one of my all-time favorites! It is by a very famous artist in the erotic fantasy art world named Boris Vallejo. If you enjoy this type of art and would like to see more of his works, visit his official website here. Enjoy!
