The term for images displaying acts of Vorarephilia or literature/roleplaying written about this is Vore. There are two main types of this: Soft Vore and Hard Vore, which are frequently shorted to SV and HV respectively. Soft Vore involves acts in which the party or parties being devoured are swallowed whole, while Hard Vore depicts prey being eaten by having bites taken out of their body or being eviscerated. Many Vorarephiles have a preference for one particular type, and may not be excited by the other type at all. Regardless of how the parties are consumed, digestion may or may not play as an element, and can sometimes tie in with Sitophilia or Emetophilia. | The term for images displaying acts of Vorarephilia or literature/roleplaying written about this is Vore.

"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').
