The Ultimate Vampire Resource and Directory

I took this driectly from Wikipedia.

I noticed a new member saying he was into "blood lusting" and recently "did it" with his girl friend. Thought I'd shed some light on the topic for newbies or anyone interested. After all, we wuoldn't wan't our members running around killing each other, aye?

Bloodlust redirects here. For sexual attraction to blood, see hematolagnia.
Killer instinct, in human behavior, is a reference to the human propensity to kill, murder. It may also refer to killing an opponent in a less literal sense.

This instinct can either be a natural inclination, or a programmed response. In the case of inclination, one feels the inner need or desire to harm or kill another for no apparent reason (otherwise perfectly calm and lucid).
A blood fetish is a sexual fetish for blood. Blood fetishists are most often aroused by blood on nude or semi-nude individuals (or indeed their sexual partner). Other blood fetishists are aroused simply by the sight of blood. witnessing accidental or intentional cuts or blood donating are good examples. Only extreme cases are turned on while viewing an extremely gruesome scene. blood fetishism is often accompanied by some licking or drinking blood through bloodletting. This is sometimes done by biting (referred to as "love-bites" though they are technically not) however this is not the norm due to the potential for damage from bruising or infection. Most often a razor blade is used. As well as being a sexual fetish, it is often considered an expression of intimacy or bonding.

There is a substantial community centered around the fetish, however it is mostly "underground" due to its controversial nature. It is partly linked with the vampire subculture, however most blood fetishists do not consider themselves "vampires", though some may have a vampire fetish - blood fetishism has a history of being referred to as "vampirism" in psychiatric literature and articles.

Bloodsports or bloodplay are general terms used for any sexual or BDSM play involving blood. It is considered edgeplay due to its nature of being able to easily spread blood borne diseases. It is also possible, although rare, for the uncareful to cut the person too deeply and cause them to bleed excessively.

There is also menstrual fetish, which focuses on menstruating women, either having their periods without blocking the flow of blood, or even focusing on used tampons. Some enjoy performing cunnilingus on their menstruating partners. The same can be said for the female; the genital area is often more arousable during menstration and orgasms can be more intense.


Any other related facts or myth you can share? Thoughts?

your research is great and the article is well structured. you have said the most of my points...grr... but still thank you for posting, I will keep a close eye on this one for sure, since it is very educational

While this is true for me its also a addiction. If I go wihout blood for more then a few months I go through a stage similar to smokers who have gone without a cig. Probly just me but I though I should post it.

am im preety new to this whole vampire thing and well i have only been awakend for almost 8 months now and it is driving me crazy i have now fead from nothing and in fact i am all three types of vampire sang sexual and energy i am weak all the time and i sleep threw the whole day it is driving me mad is there anyway someone can teach me to fead at least threw energy cause all of you may think i am cute on here but trust me i have not gotten laid for about 5 months now so i know i will not fead that way....

Very interesting post. I do have a profound interest in blood, both a blood lust (violent) and hematolagnia (as you so forth put it). Blood turns me on sexually and I also desire violence, although I am normally a very calm person. Thanks for posting.

It's something of an outside in view of things. Obviously, the lack of scientificly defineable evidence will forever scew the mainstream world. Still, one can never see an event from too many points of view.

Good post, I think that it can be a fetish for some but for others it is a true need.

Although women are more turned on during their menstration..a nerve thing..just thought I'd mention that the incidence of cervical and uterine cancer is highest in women who have sex during this time.

Nice to see the bloodplay here....makes me all warm and cozy just thinking about it.... now I just need a partner that likes it... hehe

Im actualy supprised for once here. there are few that would go to any lengths for newcomers (online in general not exclusive to here) but to actually go ahead and explain that is totaly awesome! (I know generalizations are typicaly bad but there are times when you forget or take for granted, accidents do happen!)

"Hematolagnia" is a nice word, new to me, but clear enough. Another important word is "CAUTION." Anybody involved with erotic blood play has to take the same precautions one takes with sperm or vaginal fluids in any kind of sex play -- or as IV users sharing needles.

Drinking or exposing oneself to another's blood can spread HIV, hepatitis, syphillis or other diseases. If you must share any sharps (needles, scalpels, anything that breaks skin) be sure to clean your tools and toys THOROUGHLY. Usually a good rubdown with bleach or rubbing alcohol or peroxide is good. Anybody sharing needles should draw bleach through the needles and then sterile water.

Blood sports can be a major turn-on, but even the info I've offered here is only scratching the surface (so to speak). Be sure to educate yourself thoroughly in safety techniques and sterile fields when you do any piercing and cutting in your play.

Sounds interesting enough....I might actually have to try it. No worries, she is in the med field so all precautions are to be held.

Thanks for the information. As with any encounter, the best thing to do is take precautions, and know your partner very well.

and my mom said "there is nothing educational about anything to do with vampires!" LOL! Maybe she should read this thread....
:)

Greeting's to All:

Very good post.

Some fall under fetish, while others, true need.
Thank you also for the added commentary of the possibility of spreading HIV ect..
While this in itself should be a concern, some simply have no fear of thier Convictions or Beliefs chosen.

I think it is a very arousing thought, to have one's mate enjoy such begavior; I don't think I would be interested in feeding, but to be on the other end, a turn-on!

I thank you for starting this thread for the newcomers and such to broaden their horizons so to speak. Now we can only hope those who are badly misinformed shall read and learn ;)

I have removed over 10 posts that contained NO discussion merit. Yes this is an interesting post- no need to say that.

If you can not add to the discussion your postings will be removed.

Personally, I want to say Kudos to Vlad for his posting, although HONESTLY, why even attempt to sterilize your tools unless they are expensive. Get a sharps container and dispose of them after use. That guarantees no disease if the item was sterile to begin with.

If you have "expensive toys" then invest in an auto clave. You will still have to use a bleach solution but between that and autoclaving it, you are less likely to infect someone.

I have noticed that while in some siduations shareing blood with some one is intimate but not sexual at all.
Although i do seem to find my self attracted sexualy to id say 80% of previous partners..(BTW i was , am and always will be sd safe as one can be ), as to the biteing and fetish part.. that takes a back seat fo me..i crave the taste, the feelings ect.
