     Not really much to say about me, really....for all intents and purposes I actually qualify as a hyper, I suppose. I'm a 3ft 7in tall mousie that has to wear baggy pants just to walk about in public, and even then my..erm...luggage still shows a little. n.n; Though they've been known to get bigger under certain circumstances....sometimes uncontrollably.

     So we have come to a conclusion. Since the definition of "hyper" shouldn't just mean "big genitals" it should cover the whole spectrum of the body. Whether it's muscle or whatever one thinks is hyper. Hyper doesn't have one set meaning and we believe people deserve to have entitlement to share their sonas of hyper anything and not just by their crotch or chest but by their body itself. So with that hyper muscle and anything that defines "hyper" is welcome to be shared and faved or posted here. We want furs to be comfortable here and flaunt their massive anatomy. Thanks for listening and here's to hyper!]

     While most men may love big bouncy breasts, the hyper fetish goes beyond what is natural. Breasts and other parts will be exaggerated beyond a normal range. Implants are often used to create the body parts, whether in the chest or butt or penis.

     To be plain, I'm a cum whore. If I could get it thermos big enough I'd carry a gallon of semen around with me with the word "Spooge" stenciled on the side in big bold letters. I love big hyper gigantic genitalia, I've more than once imagined causing an earth quake by humping a hole in the ground with a building sizedd penis however, more than huge penises I like enormous cumloads. The juicier and more impossible to contain the better.
