"Vore" redirects here. For the term relating to feeding, see -vore.

Vorarephilia (often misspelled voreaphilia or voraphilia, or shortened to vore), is a sexual fetish and paraphilia where arousal occurs from the idea of being eaten, eating another, or watching this process. The fantasy may include digestion.

The word vorarephilia is derived from the Latin vorare (to 'swallow' or 'devour') and Ancient Greek φιλία (philia, 'love'), while phagophilia comes from φάγειν (phagein, to 'chew' or 'gnaw').

Unbirthing is a specific subtype of Vorarephilia concerned with the sexual fantasy of being swallowed alive by female genitalia and taken into the womb.
