First of all, no posting religious comments about how stuff is wrong in this thread. Of course everyone is allowed to state their opinion, but Christians and other religious people who just post about premarital sex, same sex relationships and other deviations from the standardized common norm is wrong because their biblething says so, tends to ruin the healthy discussion. So please, if you have nothing else to say, don't bother saying it. I talked with Strop about getting this topic up and running, so... I don't think I'm not allowed to, though some of you youngsters may find it offensive. Please, if weird things about sex disturbs you, stop reading now. Kthnxbai.
Now, the actual topic of this thread is pretty wide. Heavy reading about what paraphilias are: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paraphilia But to sum up (info taken from Wikipedia's article): * Exhibitionism: the recurrent urge or behavior to expose one's genitals to an unsuspecting person. (Can also be the recurrent urge or behavior to perform sexual acts in a public place, or in view of unsuspecting persons.) * Fetishism: the use of inanimate objects to gain sexual excitement. Partialism refers to fetishes specifically involving nonsexual parts of the body (for example, feet). * Frotteurism: the recurrent urges of behavior of touching or rubbing against a nonconsenting person. * Pedophilia: a psychological disorder in which an adult experiences a sexual preference for prepubescent children, or has engaged in child sexual abuse. * Sexual Masochism: the recurrent urge or behavior of wanting to be humiliated, beaten, bound, or otherwise made to suffer for sexual pleasure. * Sexual Sadism: the recurrent urge or behavior involving acts in which the pain or humiliation of a person is sexually exciting. * Transvestic fetishism: arousal from "clothing associated with members of the opposite sex." * Voyeurism: the recurrent urge or behavior to observe an unsuspecting person who is naked, disrobing or engaging in sexual activities, or may not be sexual in nature at all.
For anyone that do not "suffer" from a paraphilia, most of that can probably sound - grotesque... But many people in this world have one or more paraphilias.
Actually, just to annoy you all with a wall of text and ****s, here's the List of paraphilias as found here. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_paraphilias I think many of them are extremely gross, but most people have at least one of the listed. Personally, I have seven.

AND THERE ARE SO MANY MORE! I think it's Rule 35 that states, if it exists, someone has a fetish for it.
Also, sorry about the ****s. It's that word for having intercourse with someone without their consent, you all know it.
Let the comments roll in! As with the Homosexuality thread, there is no particular direction for this topic to take. Just share your thoughts or something. Please keep comments on-topic and lighthearted. Flaming will not be tolerated.
Two males was not a ting being looked lightly at, as the one being dominated would loose his rank
I'm impressed...the extent of most peoples' knowledge of Ancient Greek sexuality is "they loved teh gay". Furthermore, "Platonic relationship" was actually a little bit more detailed than its modern interpretation. I believe that the pinnacle of relationships was that between a grown man and a younger boy. Of course I wouldn't know why this was so.
Is it not the... philias that are the mental illnesses? Why is Strop or Zoph not here.... Oh well.
Paraphilias are by and large no longer considered a disease by definition, unless the behaviors they are associated with cause pathology in the patient themselves. This includes distress, or loss of social, mental or physical function.
For example, if one could only gain gratification from some practice, it would be pathological pretty much if they thought it was, or if they wanted to do something and they couldn't, and that bothered them. Or it caused them to do something illegal (like, say, in case of exhibitionism or pedophilia). This isn't like your typical medical condition which is generally medicalised.
That would be normal for me, wouldnt it, being 15... well, not up to 19. more like 14-16..
Yep, totally normal if you are in or around that age group. So technically you have that one. :P
Need to clarify here: age-specific 'araphilias' can only be properly applied to adults. There are a number of more specific guidelines for psych evaluation when it comes to age differences in younger relationships. In Australia, age of consent is 16 years, which means that if both parties are younger than this, an age gap of more than 2 years is an indication for intervention. However if one person is older, then that gap increases to four years. At least I think.
I would say pedophilia is waaaay easier, because thats actually like... uh... natural.
...to each their own I guess! Speaking of which...
sexual arousal from the breasts of a woman
uh, isnt that normal? or do you mean "woman", like a middle aged woman or something...?
I'm guessing that the definition is such that this term is applied to somebody who has an attraction discernably above and beyond the norm.
I would say if you dont like tits, you just dont want to admit your gay. Honestly, what kind of straight man DOESNT love tits? Unless they are really bad tits, of course. Thats disgusting.
The best explanation for this is that you are young and confused, no offence intended.
Don't worry, the confusion should settle with time and experience =)
[quote]Heh, pedophilia is actually one of the fetishes I find it extremely hard to relate to, at least when it involves human children. The bodies are not developed yet, no base for sex... (By saying human before, I mean that there are certain made up species (I draw critters, go away) where pedophilia can be brought to a level where it makes sense - but it still disturbs me a little..)
But you could still be having sex with a puppy as a beastialitist, or whatever the word would be for that. And it just goes against nature completely. Plus, pedophilia doesnt have to be with someone so young they haven't developed at all. It could still be with someone in their teens. [/quote]Eck, I knew I had forgotten something in my post. Alright, pedophilia with any real specie is ick to me. Admitted. And preteens, yeah... When it comes to those, they're still not fully developed either. One 12 year old was enough in my life. *was fourteen myself at that time* Btw, careful with the goes against nature statement. Who can really claim to know what goes against nature.
I would say if you dont like tits, you just dont want to admit your gay. Honestly, what kind of straight man DOESNT love tits? Unless they are really bad tits, of course. Thats disgusting.
Again, their are other components of women. We're not all about tits. Why should a straight guy be?
Oh, and thank yous to Strop for delivering one of his usual solid posts and covering up the stuff I missed by accidents~
What, like he stares at every clothed set of tits he sees? Thats not a paraphilia, thats just being a loser and never having had the chance to have a pair to call your own.
Probably more like focusing exaggeratedly on them. Always fondling his/her girlfriends breasts, paying special attention to them during sex, perhaps enjoying the - French sex a bit more than other kinds. (Ya know, appendage rubbing between breasts - I'm past the line now, right...? Is that the French anyway? *has forgotten*)
Gross. But 14 still is pedophilia, so you could be at that or maybe even 15, I'm not so sure about that though.
In Denmark, the legal age for sex and stuff is 15... We never went that far at all, it was my first relationship ever, and was a complete failure... Just pointing out why I don't see the attraction to preteens either... Their mindsets...
Well, I havent heard of a cow having sex with a horse, or anything of that sort, so...
But zebras with horses and horses with donkeys and wolves or foxes with dogs and so on... As long as it's the same group of animals, interspecies mating happens.
Not all about tits, but at least somewhat. I myself often prefer a nice butt.
My (ex)girlfriend does too. Personally I do very much like the mammary area, but oh well. I guess it's good I have a pair myself then, since she... Ah, too personal now.
*level of serious Zoph falls relatively equal to level of tired Zoph rising*
More because butts were the thing attrating males - once upon a time. Later, when human stood, and sex were happening face to face, the breast became larger to atract the males.
yep, it's nature. Men find boobs attractive, and in order to get a mate, the body makes 'em larger. Also, I found that, in a way, nature made it work too. Males may not look for bigger boobs because they have more milk for a child, but it does make sense in a naturalist kind of way.
I hate to slap people, but sometimes I have to, because I can't be bothered holding their hand through every little correction...
45Grave, you talk like you know everything.
Guess what: you don't. Mouthing off and making aggressive statements may work in some places but so God help me, it won't here: it makes you look like a knob.
Cenere, thoad, I wouldn't say you're wrong but I would be careful when talking about evolutionary and anthropological theories. It is improper to talk about causation of physiological changes:
Men find boobs attractive, and in order to get a mate, the body makes 'em larger.
-and-
the breast became larger to atract the males.
Both imply that the body somehow "knew" that breasts were the new in thing and therefore "made them larger", when properly speaking, the body doesn't know any such thing. Possibly you could say that assuming there was a transition from crawling to standing erect, larger breasts were naturally (and gradually) selected and therefore became prevalent. Contributing factors may include no longer being a hindrance to mobility and their site becoming more prominent.
Also note here (this is to everybody who thinks breasts are the only thing that matter), that phenomenon would exist as a trend within population groups, not necessarily a rule applied to the species.
Getting the wording right when discussing evolution is actually very tricky!
Gross, I dont want to see what that looks like. Animals are screwed up. But, thats still nothing like a person and a dog... Those are two entirely different groups...
Human with a chimp, then? Horse with a donkey is actually quite common. The offspring is called a mule, and was very commonly used for work...
[quote]My (ex)girlfriend does too. Personally I do very much like the mammary area, but oh well. I guess it's good I have a pair myself then, since she... Ah, too personal now.
That sounds very strange[/quote]If I say I'm a lesbian, does it then sound less strange?
If you are really...awesome you will know where that is from.
I am not, so I will just be curious now...
Hmm, wondering if guys liking butts are more primitive than breast guys?
That's what our primate relatives still go for, right? Oh the colourful buttses~
More because butts were the thing attrating males - once upon a time. Later, when human stood, and sex were happening face to face, the breast became larger to atract the males.
Where do you have your info from? I believe it, just finding it interesting enough to want to know in detail, as well as taking the things Strop posted into thought as well. And I haven't bumped into anything about it on Wikipedia, so help finding it please?
yep, it's nature. Men find boobs attractive, and in order to get a mate, the body makes 'em larger.
That's not the body, that's women who get plastic surgeries. At least with the way you described it.
I was unable to figure out which search word to use, dammit... Also I asked where did you get your info from? Finding some myself wouldn't exactly answer that, would it? You just don't care because I said in another thread that I sometimes don't want to search, or what? If you didn't want to say anything other than I should ask around, you shouldn't have posted it on this thread...
ah.......ummmm ok , well , i dont understand why people would be attracted to half that stuff but yea well.. humans will be humans ( inquesiive in finding sexual pleasure =p)
