Futanari is a fantasy fetish rooted in Japanese manga and anime porn (hentai). In it, the characters, so-called 'futas' –usually have two or (more!) sex characteristics. Victoria Blisse guides you through the magical world of futa fetish...

 

Fantasy is a safe space to explore what turns us on, and it can come in many forms, including films, cartoons, video games and comics. Many of our fetishes start from the media we consume – and as the world becomes all the more connected, we find more intriguing aspects of foreign cultures we've never experienced before. This is part of the reason why the world of futanari and futa is becoming more well-known and accessible to us kinksters. 

 

What is futanari and what is a futa?

Japanese for 'two forms,' the word futanari refers to someone with a mix of two sex characteristics. Usually this is breasts and a penis, and sometimes also a vulva as well. Most commonly seen in futanari hentai (anime porn) and sometimes called ‘futas,’ they're known for having overly exaggerated features. Think Jessica Rabbit with a dick, and that's the kind of thing you'll see.

Futanari is on the whole an animation and comic-based medium now, though before the '90s, the term was often used to refer to intersex people within real life. Nowadays it is connected only to hentai.

 

So, is futanari trans?

No, the characters, or 'futas' in futanari hentai are highly sexualized images of intersex characters that center the focus of the story on their inhumanly huge breasts and penises. A number of trans men and trans women have found their understanding of their gender growing from these kinds of hentai comics, videos and cartoons, but primarily they exist for the consumption of cis people, mostly men. And predominantly heterosexual men too.

Is futanari problematic, then?

Fetish and fantasy are both healthy. Here at fetish.com and FET, we encourage both with great enthusiasm – futanari is a fantasy fetish rooted in Japanese porn characters. It's perfectly fine to enjoy it within that particular context.

 

“What is futa? Japanese for 'two forms,' the word futanari refers to someone with a mix of two sex characteristics. Usually this is breasts and a penis, and sometimes also a vulva as well.”


Some of the themes in futanari can represent the characters as 'traps' where they portray as one sex (generally female) and then reveal they have other sex characteristics, i.e., a penis, once the sexual action has started. While this is OK to explore as a fictional thing, this kind of rhetoric around real trans and intersex people is damaging and unrealistic. Indeed, it is the kind of slur that can be very damaging to the trans community.

We want to be responsible kinksters, and placing uncomfortable expectations on trans and intersex people or misrepresenting them because of made-up media is very wrong. So, our advice is to keep the futa fetish purely fictional and not try to seek out real life futanari themed experiences.

Why is futa hentai gaining in popularity?

Generally, Japanese anime has grown in popularity over the last decades, with people reading and watching far more from Japanese sources overall. The popularity of series such as Pokémon brought interest from countries such as the US and the UK in more Japanese media.

 

“Futa hentai and futa porn tends to explore risqué subjects such as non-consent and incest. And as people are fascinated with taboos, the popularity of futanari has risen.”


Hentai is known for its fantastical exploration of adult themes. This type of Japanese porn can range from vanilla themes to the more risqué, and futa hentai and futa porn tends to explore more taboo subjects such as non-consent and incest. And as people are fascinated with extremes and taboos, the popularity of futanari has risen. It gives a way to explore these themes in a totally exotic way.

Do futas really exist?

Not at all; they are make-believe characters that exaggerate certain aspects of a person with more than one sex characteristic – they are not based on any real transgender or intersex people and futas come from the creators' imagination. It's essential to realize this and keep fantasy separate from reality. If you are struggling with this or your futa fetish is causing you any concern, you should contact a medical professional.
