For me, it’s anal sex with a woman. There’s a hole right next to it that evolution has literally designed for your penis that doesn’t require extra prep and comes pre-lubed. Why choose the one where the poo comes out?

    I don’t get any of it. Many of these things seem like they should be discussed with a therapist and not harboured and defended as a kink

    Strong disagree. Kinks are not mental illnesses. People like what they like, people have fun in their own ways. Expressing that is not inherently wrong. Illegal stuff is different but if everyone is on board and having harmless fun then it’s all good.

    People can express mental illness via weird kinks, but weird kinks are not mentally ill.

      I used to think the same thing. But then I found out about extreme kinks or fetishes like Guro, self mutilation, etc.

      Can one be sexually attracted to forms of mutilation and still claim mental stability?

        I don’t think you need to look at it any differently than we do other types of human behavior. Generally a behavior is not considered mental illness unless it causes significant distress for the patient or those around them.

        Do those kinks cross that line? Well, it depends on how they are acted upon to some extent. If they are only fantasies or you explore them in a safe way (role-playing, etc.), I’d have to say no. But in some cases they certainly could qualify.

      I find it a hard line to walk. As I said, I can’t judge people as I don’t know what they like or why they like it. As you said, if it’s harmless fun, that’s fine…

      But if your kink of that you want to fuck one of your parents or hurt someone, or piss yourself while pretending to be a baby… I feel like you should probably go talk to a therapist about it, as it’s possible these things come from a traumatic past.

      But then, if your therapist says you’re all cool and it’s just a safe harmless fantasy, go watch all the incest porn and be a baby because you’re all good and having fun in your own way!

      Again, that’s how I perceive it, and I’m sorry if anyone takes offence. There are some pretty wild kinks out there that are completely alien to my understanding of the world, let alone my sexuality. I’m quite happy to be wrong or re-educated because it’s not something I know a ton about and this is all just my brain thinkings being typed out with no basis in fact or research. I’m dumb all the time and this might be one of those times.
