What is tentacle rape?

Tentacle rape is a subgenre of pornography that typically involves fictional or fantastical creatures with tentacles engaging in sexually explicit acts with human characters. This genre originated in Japanese erotica, known as hentai, and has since become popular in various forms of adult content.

Tentacle rape usually depicts non-consensual sexual encounters, often with a focus on domination and power dynamics. The tentacles are often portrayed as aggressive and overpowering, binding and penetrating the human characters in various ways.

While tentacle rape is a fantasy trope and not based in reality, it has garnered criticism for its depiction of sexual violence and lack of consent. Some argue that it can perpetuate harmful stereotypes and attitudes towards sexuality.

Despite its controversial nature, tentacle rape remains a popular theme in adult entertainment and has inspired a wide range of media, including anime, manga, and video games.
