Paraphilias

[SilentScream213]

I have them, some of you have them too. Paraphilias are sexually deviant desires not accepted by society. So I have a question for all of you with these: How do you plan on dealing with it? Are you going to try to suppress it your whole life? Do you think at some point you might give in to it? Just curious, thanks for responses.

I have told all of my closest friends they all think its cool :) I'm a macrophile and a vorarephile... But as I was saying, they kept pushing me and pushing me to tell them everything about myself so... I told them its quite a relief and who knows maybe there's someone out there with the same 'feelings' and they're sitting right behind you in a class...

I can answer your question with two parts:

(1) Fetishes and paraphilias tend to come in two "flavors"....those that involve thoughts and those that involve actions. For the first; feel free to think or feel anything you want; it's not something you can control anyway. If it involves actions...then yes....if it's something that is illegal or harmful to you or to others...then you must prepare to abstain...forever.

(2) I think that in nearly all cases...the person afflicted with a fetish or paraphilia tends to think that it is horrible or embarrassing or disgusting.....but that another person who's told about it will respond "eh; oh yeah"....

That said; proceed carefully when deciding to talk to others; some things are better left unsaid. There's no reason why; even a friend, needs to know **everything** about you. Especially if you're talking about something that is illegal. And; especially on a public forum like this one.

All my closest friends know about my sexual desires as well. They don't think it's "cool", but they don't see me any different.
Obviously I don't plan on acting on my desires, because they are all illegal, but who knows. There's always those moment when your just not thinking clearly.
