Longtime subscribers will also remember the appalling story of Princess Mom, in which women who complained about a pregnancy fetishist in a Facebook Forum were silenced by its moderators. Here he is trying to organise a fake “birth” within the group.

The technical term for a lactation fetish is lactophilia, and there is an abundance of online communities and pornography centered on it. For example, Reddit, which hosts a wide range of pornographic content and requires no age verification, features a subreddit dedicated to the discussion of “HuCow”, a portmanteau of “human cow”, or the fetishisation of women as service animals for their owner, or “farmer”. 

It currently has over 87,000 members.

Yet lactophilia is not only limited to the sexualized degradation of women; men who identity as transgender can be seen online openly displaying their arousal while attempting to lactate.

A cursory search for transgender erotica on Amazon reveals “MTF transformation” erotica specifically centered on the lactophilia fetish. “The farmer I found to plow this field of mine also wanted to get a little milking done,” the summary reads. “I never thought being a woman could be this pleasurable.”

Though this self-published erotica sold through Amazon seems niche and humorous in its absurdity, it is the tip of the iceberg in a far greater sprawling mass of content posted across social media and online forums where men encourage each other in their fetishes -- which is in turn symptomatic of the even greater trend in dividing the entire experience of womanhood into consumable, sexualized parts.

In 2017, trans-identified male Dana Fried wrote an article for The Stranger describing his attempt to breastfeed his newborn daughter in which he states, “[b]Yeah, I kind of got off on it. Don’t judge,[/b]”.
