So I don't know how other people feel about this, but I usually cannot get into stories that involve already existing male characters. An example I can use is if I were to find a story with Ann and Ryuji, when it gets to the actual smut, I don't want to imagine Ryuji and his cock fucking Ann. I want my mind to focus on Ann, but the image is basically tainted by having my mind picture Ryuji as well haha.

I personally ship Ann and Ryuji together so I can read fluff with those two characters or stuff similar to that, but when it comes to pure smut, especially ones that deal with domination and the like, I just can't lol. 

I cannot tell you how many times I have searched for a My Hero Academia hypnosis fic (which isn't THAT hard) only to then find that it's a story revolving around DEKU with a hypnosis quirk. The ONE thing I DON'T want to picture is Deku and especially Deku's dick of all things fucking a bunch of different female characters. Just describing that right now is VERY unsexy to me and would make me not enjoy the fic.

I also had the same problem with finding a few hypnosis fics with Cynthia from Pokemon BUT it involves ASH! Like WHAT!!? EW! No, THANK you!

With an OC, I can create that distance of not having to vividly picture an exact character. Plus, even though I will describe how a male character looks, when picturing the events of the fic, I can view the character in my head as vaguely as I want.

I'm fine with F/F pairings in smut like Haru and Makoto, which...well, I don't think I really have to explain why lol, but again, when it comes to picturing existing male characters, I just can't haha. This usually isn't a problem since I mostly write and read F/F anyways, but as you all know, you can't always count on finding the exact fic you want.

This might just be a me thing lol. I don't know how other people feel about this. I know everyone has their own preferences when it comes to fan fiction and smut. Some of you might think that's a weird hang up to have while others might go "oh my god! yes! I thought I was the only one!"

With posting writing prompts recently, I've started thinking about this more and I thought this would be an interesting thing to share to my $5 patrons haha. But I'm super curious what you guys think! Again, do you think this is a weird thing? Or does it make sense? On top of that, what are some weird quirks/turnoffs YOU all have when it comes to reading fan fiction or smut? I would be super curious to know!

When it comes to smut, I just don't like anal, or 'unclean' play in general. It's hard for me to pin down anything else concrete 'cause my tastes are quite varied, and I won't know whether I like or dislike something until I get into it.

I'm not usually quite that offput by an existing male character in my smut EXCEPT in my mind control/Ntr smut. I want it to be a character who is an in universe perv/bully/general awful person. Either that or an OC. None of this "charactar loses all morals just so the smut plot can happen" BS. (Think Kostas Kingdom. That is a perfect example of how I like my pre-existing male characters in my MC harem fics. Thats why I'm here after all.)

I agree, actually! At least when it comes to M/F mind control smut, I'm generally more into the "awful person" archetype, though of course, it depends on the fic. That dynamic is usually a lot of fun, and a lot of my favorite mind control smut revolves around that dynamic as well. I also agree that it CAN be an existing character that fits that archetype, while I am really never into the character that loses all their morals as well, which A LOT of existing MC fics revolve around. Like, I am way more into say Kamoshida using mind control than Ryuji, even though I would probably still write an OC. But again, not opposed. So I guess I shouldn't say ONLY, just 90% of the time lol. Though I guess a lot of the time, it can be hard to find an existing character like that that I would also be interested in writing for, though again, it depends. Honestly, if I had written the concept for Kostas Kingdom, I probably would have written an OC because Kostas is such an afterthought villain in Three Houses that I definitely would have forgotten about him lol. HOWEVER, I think that's why the concept of Kostas Kingdom works so so well BECAUSE he is such a nothing, pathetic character who luckily finds himself in this perfect situation. What a great idea, honestly lol. And F/F, of course, is an entirely different can of worms. I definitely like my female characters in MC fics a bit differently, as I'm sure many of you have already picked up on lol.
