My First Cricket Crush (Patreon)

**This is live insect crush, please skip if you do not wish to see this content**

It's a difficult balance with insect crush because there are strong feelings about the content. I fully understand that some of you have an aversion to this sort of content, but at the same time there's also a passionate desire for it and few worthwhile sources.

I researched the subject painstakingly and feel confident that feeder crickets, bred for the purpose of a productive death and often stored in conditions that contribute to maiming and cannibalism, are not necessarily worse off being crushed under my shoes. Their deaths are essentially the same as being crushed in the mouths of reptiles, and pain studies on locusts (the closest thing to crickets that have been studied) show them to be very unlikely to even experience pain, let alone actual suffering.

This decidedly unsexy explanation seems worthwhile because I've come to feel like there is a place for responsible live crush in this community and I'm now a willing participant. It's entirely possible to step on bugs for fun and pleasure and be a good person, just like you should enjoy videos like this without a hint of guilt.

Thank you for encouraging me to try new things

With love,

Miss K
