The hobby has radically expanded and otherwise altered my tastes in major ways. For example:
- I hardly even looked at Asian civilians until last year, when I decided that I wanted to expand my horizons and learn why so many white men find Asian women so appealing. I accordingly began trying Asian providers and now regularly session with them. I now find Asian civilians increasingly attractive as well.
- I had a degree of interest in Latinas before I began mongering, but the hobby has made them my preferred ethnic group by far. My hobby experiences with Latinas have also greatly increased my interest in Latin America and Latin culture in general - to the point that I have now learned Spanish and traveled to Latin America for hobby purposes. Learning Spanish has also given me a marketable job skill and increased my salary.
- I have historically been a "tits & ass" kind of guy and will probably prefer voluptuous, thicker women for the rest of my life. The hobby has nonetheless given me a greater appreciation of petite spinners and other thinner/smaller women, in whom my interest has increased recently due to sessions with such providers.
- In my pre-hobby days, when I was younger (early-mid 20s), I had a very strong preference for civilian MILFs and cougars, e.g. like Mrs. Robinson or Samantha on Sex and the City. I preferred their greater erotic skills and often heightened libidos enough that any impact of their age on their appearance did not bother me much or at all. The hobby has since exposed me to younger women with equally impressive erotic skills and sensuality, and I have also grown more sensitive to the impact of age on women's appearances. MILFs remain a key element of my mongering diet, but my interest in them has been gradually declining, and I now lean increasingly toward younger providers and toward MILFs at the younger end of the MILF age bracket.
