Why are dragons the epitome of "FANTASY" around the world?

They aren't tho. At least not only. I think magic and non-human races like dwarfs are what makes fantasy fantasy. There are settings where dragons are barely present.

Oh my sweet summer child

First day on the internet, I see. いらっしゃいませ .

I wish I could post things to demonstrate just how endlessly wrong you are, but we're on a blue board.

Anecdotes are not evidence. The vast majority need to attach the creature to a humanoid form for it to be acceptable. This is evident in almost all media out there. IF there's a female monster that actually looks like a monster, 99% chance it is going to be killed or portrayed in a negative light.

I would fuck all four of the things you just listed, no changes necessary.

>only after she's had every evil personality trait removed
My waifu has literally committed arson multiple times, laughs when bad things happen to her friends, and once commented that she'd love to adopt a child so she could abandon it at the mall.

Well, hold on. Are we talking about romantic involvement, or just sex? Cuz that's two different things.

Actually speaking of fucking dragons I'mma drop this here pastebin.com/zy9Wg4Jg

I just went to rule34.xxx and searched "friendship is magic" and there were literally 88,507 images. Skimming through, less than half were humanized in any way from the characters as portrayed in the cartoon.

Eighty eight thousand, five hundred and seven. I'd say probably at least fifty thousand of those are at least as non-human as they are in the cartoon, and that's just what's hosted on one single site, surrounding exactly one cartoon.

well Mr user he wasn't the one to say
>Nobody ever actually wants to fuck fantasy creatures
like an absolutist nigger

They represent a primal archetype from deep within the human collective unconscious.

>There are settings where dragons are barely present.

Yeah, those are the bad ones

Because pretty much every civilisation has a myth relating to it or something similar.

Your pasta was shit the first time, and it hasn’t got better with age.

>say "nobody ever"
>immediately backpedals to "t-t-the vast majority..."
you've got no principles

I AM WILLING TO TAKE A 3-DAY VACATION (since I'll be doing Thanksgiving with the family) JUST TO PROVE YOU WRONG, FUCKWIT.

I WOULD FUCK BOTH OF THESE HORSES AND MY COCK WOULD BE MIGHTILY ERECT.

DELICIOUS MARE-PUSSY.

ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED?! IS THAT NOT WHY YOU ARE HERE?!

>Nobody ever

And you fail logic forever, you fucking shit-stain, since I am providing proof that there is one person who would fuck a fantasy creature, nullifying your claim. Git gud you fucking statist.

MY ANCESTORS ARE SMILING AT ME, NORMIE. CAN YOU SAY THE SAME!?

Oh my god shut up.
You aren't even relevant, you're just using any opportunity to talk about your shitty children's show when the topic is dragons followed by giants, lizardfolk, and demons.

>dragons
There's plenty of not-even-slightly-anthropomorphic dragon porn. Go find it on e621 if you want.
>giants
You can go to and I bet there's a thread right now.
>lizardfolk
Argonians would be my first example against these.
>demons
Succubi are one of the most common sexual subjects in fiction. Not even 10% of them are redeemed or innocent demons. Most are just evil and sexy.

I'm in no way turned on by them, but i'd fuck a dragon just for the bragging rights.

>I'm not attracted to dragons but i'd one
>

include me in the screencap

>screencapping pasta

>not wanting that soft belly and scaly hide
>not enjoying that THICC tail
>not wanting to spoon and cuddle for hours with a big, powerful, muscular creature
>not wanting to feel his hot, sultry breath upon your skin as he gently and affectionately rubs his snout against you
I bet you like girls too dont you, faggot

fuck u mang i'd let a muscular orc woman smash me

You are wrong on SOOOO many levels it ceases to be cute and doubles back around to it hurts. In games I have been married to a cursed druid who would shift between full human and animal (and in between) sporadically and had to perform my husbandly duties. Also one PC did lay a dragon. At first not knowing, then she changed back.
The fact 'a cat is fine to' exsists
The sub furry genre 'ferals' exsists
All pokeporn exsists (some are more humanoid but a LOT are not)
Giantess porn is a huge fetish, one anime had best girl as a giantess and she was jealous of other smaller girls. But she herself was enormous.

As far as dragons go they are hugely powerful beings with immense wealth. They are so beyond human and look nothing like us. But it's the idea of romancing something like that which is appealing. It's like being the boytoy of a rich CEO. You are almost nothing to her but she has taken a liking to you. Also that one writefaggotry about a dragoness tying up adventurers in her mouth like a women tying cherry stems that helps.

Now I'm curious, who's you're waifu?

I'm pretty much fond of seeing at least a human head on top of the body but spider girls are ok, as long as the bust is still there I guess.

>Not wanting to fuck or get fucked a dragon, male or female
Whats wrong with you

All of those things you listed are either niche, or very much reviled. You will never see the sort of thing in any kind of mainstream media unless said dragon has a human form that is significantly more important and on display compared to their natural form, which may as well not even exist.

They're a weirdly universal concept. Must be some racial memory or something.

>niche
From the scale of humanity as a whole, sure, essentially everything that isn't male + female heterosexual vaginal penetration is niche.
But we're not talking about that. You said nobody does that. Numerically, there are lots of people that do that, easily tens of thousands. "Niche" on the world stage, but prolific on the internet.
In short, niche is a pointless word. Every interest is niche.
>You will never see the sort of thing in any kind of mainstream media
How mainstream do you consider The Elder Scrolls, which has the Lusty Argonian Maid as a fan favorite subject matter?
How mainstream do you consider Final Fantasy, which had a massive, not-even-vaguely dragon and a woman in an explicitly sexual relationship in XIV?
Your absolute statements are empty as fuck.

>reptile is big
Yeah, weird.

(me)
Fuck I mistyped. Not-even-vaguely-human dragon for FFXIV, rather.
This guy. Fucked a hot elf. Canon.

>How mainstream do you consider The Elder Scrolls, which has the Lusty Argonian Maid as a fan favorite subject matter?
Don't forget the "Sultry Argonian Bard"

Because they're fucking awesome, and almost every culture has some sort of dragon or draconic myth to it.

You've never seen Shrek have you?

Dinosaurs aren't reptiles, user.

>Even Croissants

How mainstream is dark souls where Seath fucked Gwendolyn to make Priscilla.

Because dragons tend to come in two types: "The Apex Predator of Apex Predators" and "Avatars of the (Destructive) Forces of Nature."

That literally is not confirmed. It is far more likely that Priscilla was made via magical experimentation rather than actual sex.

It isn't.

Nice derail guys. Anyway dragons are an anthropocentric fantasy. There is no way humans before guns would stand any chance against such a creature, but that's the point. When we win, and we always do in the end, it's to show that we were victorious against such a powerful, insurmountable foe.

Dragons exist to be slain in order for us to get our egotistical rocks off while doing so.

>"Fairy tales are more than true – not because they tell us dragons exist, but because they tell us dragons can be slain"

I think more consider it canon then not. Gwendolyn is a big girl so it's not even a size thing, also it's a Nip game so the weirder thing is more likely.

Or some floofy giant worm with unfathomable mystic power who teaches you to read and farm and stuff.

They aren't.

>There is no way humans before guns would stand any chance against such a creature
Because dragons are 100 foot monsters who shoot lasers, right?

Those tend to fall under "Avatars of the Forces of Nature."

Dragons (including the already huge world serpents) have been getting bigger and bigger over the centuries. Hard to be afraid of a 10 foot super snake when we can go to a zoo and see a 17 foot one.

I really like dragons in the shadowrun setting. Fucking power brokers who hoard real wealth and power like a 1980s investment banker.

>Dragons (including the already huge world serpents) have been getting bigger and bigger over the centuries
This is flat out wrong.
The English alone have multiple dragons the size of hills in their dark/Middle Ages folklore
The idea that the manlet monk dragons were the only ones is a lie spread by the ignorant who are pissed off about the modern idea of dragons being ridiculously big by default.

>There is no way humans before guns would stand any chance against such a creature

You have little imagination if you think that so.

A dragon is a beast, no more, no less. Mankind shall always stand above the beasts

Lookup Chaoskampf. Dragons symbolize the primordial chaos of the abyssal depths tamed by the forces of order and religion. But now in the modern age order has triumphed completely and killed fantasy. It is only appropriate that the dragon of chaos is revived

What is Typhon?
What is Leviathan?
What is the kraken?

Who would win? Ancalagon or the Rudrashka?

...

>tries to fly
>wings clap together instead

A real American Dragon...

Giant flying fire-breathing lizards is a fun, simple and easily understandable monster idea. And all the pre-existing art/mythology doesn't hurt the concept either...

I read somewhere that some evolutionary psychologists have theorized that the reason why dragons are almost omnipresent in human mythos is because the idea of a serpentine, sometimes flying beasts with great destructive power is akin to an universal architype of a unknowable threat in human psyche, that stems from our ancient past, when we were tree dwelling creatures which were preyed upon by predatory birds, snakes, and cats.

In essence, a dragon is a snakebirdcat, an amalgamation of all the predatory fears our ancestors had combined into a super predator that still haunts our psyche.

so why do i want to get fucked by BDC so much?

> move all wings up at the same time

It largely depends on what kind of dragon it is. If we are talking of a dragon ripped straight out of modern fantasy, the talking, spell-casting, 50+ foot kind, then without similar fantasy benefits or outright plot/writer induced favoritism, humans would not win.

Because you are a broken wreck of a person, a product of our modern decadent age, where we no longer know where to aim our ambitions and desires, and thus turn towards hedonistic and materialistic pleasures, which we ultimately can never satisfy, forcing us to seek even stranger and more vile pleasures. You are akin to an eldar right before their fall. With no boundaries on your behavior imposed by self dicipline and a moral framework other than that of your own, you have become what you are, an underman, slave to perverted desires. The fact that your fantasies involve yourself being sodomized by the symbolic representation of destruction and chaos, is quite fitting for our age actually, given how our entire society is teetering on the edge of chaos and destruction, and the fact that the lights still work is more due to the fact that it takes a long time for a system as large as our own, to collapse under it's own weight, even though all of it's supporting pillars have already rotted away.

So in short, you lusting after dragon cock, is yet another sign of the inevitable collapse of western civilization as modernity's effects have eaten away all of that upon which our societies were build.
Ride the tiger, and enjoy the fireworks.

Seems reasonable

...

ok but... i also want to cuddle with it and be a 50's style housewife for him. what does that mean?

I cannot analyze your pathological fetishes on further detail nor do I really care. It is up to every man and woman to find some semblance of sanity in this chaotic time. If such fantasies help you, more power to you, but in time, something with the strength and conviction to force own vision to the world, will push you, and all flickering and weak candles like you, away in preparation of the rebirth of a more heroic time.

Because they make cool boss.

The sea itself with no defined shape, a whale, and huge fuck-off squid respectively.

>You are akin to an eldar right before their fall
Oh we have a LONG way to hell, friend.

It looks like a storm dragon, so that's actually fitting.

Be honest, have you EVER used one of these? What can they be used for, that you can't use a western dragon instead?

NOT THICC

Dead link

>My period of history is more different and special than other periods of history

Okie

>he thinks society can collapse
Haha, not until the food runs out. And we're making more food than we eat! We only import luxury goods. The bread and circuses have won. America is too busy laughing and Trump drinking water awkwardly to care about their rights being smashed down left right and center.
No, there will be no "more heroic time". If anything, it's just gonna be robots supporting an increasingly hedonistic and apathetic populace. There will never come a day of awakening, to speak in your ridiculously flowery prose, the sun has already set and will not rise again.

Giants, ghosts, vampires, demons and angels are plausible.
Dragons are not, and yet people found claws, theet and even whole skulls of what at the time might have looked like dragons.

>I want a Dragon waifu; but only after she polymorphs into a beautiful woman/loli
Nah provided the dragon had a sweet personality and compatible genitals I would fug a dragon
>I want a Giantess waifu; but only after she has shrunk into a beautiful 6'2" woman
I'm okay with anything up to about 15 feet tall, as long as she can still see me and we could possibly still fug.
>I want a Lizardwoman waifu; but only after she's been made completely humanoid via magic
I'm not really into lizard women except occasionally kolbolds.
>I want a demon waifu; but only after she's had every evil personality trait removed
why are all demons evil?

There the Jungian archetype for "predator" or "threat". Out ancient ancestors in trees had to worry about snakes, big cats, birds of prey, and fire.

A dragon is a snake with the wings of a bird of prey, the claws of a big cat, and the ability to breathe fire. It's part of the human psyche that is universal, which is why every culture has some version of it.
