Just came across this (N, J :@ ). Had no idea Mr Roberts has a publishing deal.

https://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/464071526/2018-dragon-sex-calendar

I'd better not click on that in work. Does Etsy count as having a deal, or is he self-publishing/using a vanity press? Anyway, sounds like great news.

That's assuming you're not using Chrome and Google hasn't already decided to visit the link for you.

Ignoring the words "Dragon Sex" I doubt the page is likely to offend, and any tracking would probably only see the domain (unless they're doing detailed monitoring of you for some reason).

Neither. Kos sees dragons drawn having sex and assumes it must be Simon.

It's not sold by him, it's 13 images from different artists, none of which are in his style, and all of the web-visible ones are credited to people who are not Simon.

If the shipping wasn't twice the price of the calendar, I might've considered getting Kos one as a present...

Plot twist - Kos is one of the artists.

_{(not really)}

I couldn't see any artist names on mobile, and I can't say I'm that familiar with his style to spot it beyond it being sexy dragons.

And their surely can't be many more than 13 artists that do that sort of stuff, perhaps he's using a pseudonym?

I /wish/!

If there's that many, there must a name for the syndrome ____ophile.

There are 53 unique users in the first 72 results, ordered by most popular first, at Fur Affinity - giving an estimate of over sixty five thousand on just one art community - I'm not going to dedupe against other sites, but six figures wouldn't be a surprise.

Paraphilia is the general name for being aroused by unusual things.

Furry = People who like anthropomorphic creatures.
Yiff = Furry + Erotica

And if you think that's weird... https://imgur.com/a/SwYqY

(Don't follow the link if you're anywhere where you're not prepared to explain this conversation.)

I prefer my world where there are less than rugby team's worth of dragon botherers. :C

Well you'll just have to settle for less than the number of registered players, and be thankful it doesn't involve mascot activities during the intervals.

GOD DAMN

I just clicked that link.

I wish I hadn't.

Some things can't be unseen  X-O

I probably was in chrome, but it was less about the URL or being tracked, more about people seeing dragons having sex on my computer screen.

I thought the twist was Kos modelled for the calender. "Draw me like one of your French Dragons."

Er, link isn't working.
