Libidomania (1979) - full transcript
"And the rib, which the Lord God
had taken from man...
And Adam said: 'This is now bone
of my bones, and flesh of my flesh.'
She shall be called Woman,
because she was taken out of Man.
Therefore shall a man
leave his father and his mother...
and shall cleave unto his wife:
and they shall be one flesh."
And thus was sensuality born,
and sexual desire.
But when desire and invention intertwine,
perversity ensues.
The psychiatrist
Krafft-Ebing wrote:
A sexual impulse that defies nature
is perverse...
and will lead further
in this direction.
So each person should explore
the reaches of his natural sexuality...
and find fulfillment there.
This film will attempt
to illustrate sexual aberrations...
help us to cure them and help
to understand others that are prey to them.
THIS FILM IS FREELY ADAPTED FROM:
Krafft-Ebing
refers in his work...
to the sexual connotations in ceremonies
practiced by primitive peoples.
The spectrum of perversion is just as broad
for fantasy knows no limits.
When I meet a woman I feel absolutely
no desire to sleep normally with her.
I just want to
subject myself to her.
I only seek contact with the body parts
that excite me.
She must tread on me, no rush,
for minutes on end.
Tread on my chest, my stomach,
my thighs, and finally my penis.
I like having my throat stepped on,
like she was strangling me with her foot.
During my climax, I like her to block
my sperm, first with the heel then the sole...
to prolong my pleasure.
Then something
strange happens:
I imagine that she's doing this to me
to punish me because I treated her bad.
Sometimes I get trodden on so hard
I'm marked for days afterwards.
This is Melinda,
24 years old.
She lives in New York.
Melinda is a so-called "transsexual".
She accepts her condition
and makes the most of it.
Melinda either does it for free
or she charges $50,000.00 a shot...
explains her manager
David Vogner.
Who is this strange
creature Melinda?
A lot of men
come after me.
They never have a hang-up -
quite the opposite.
The fact I'm a she-man
seems to be a big turn-on.
A loaded Mexican paid $50,000.00
to sleep with me.
What did we do?
Just guess.
Besides, I don't just play
the passive homosexual role.
Melinda, 24 years old, transsexual,
a real hermaphrodite.
She - or he - claims quite candidly
to be happy...
in her dual
male/female personality.
We are in the Onbangisciari tribal area
of Guinea in Equatorial Africa.
This man was caught in the act
with the medicine man's wife.
Adultery is punished in Guinea with
the most brutal penalty: emasculation.
Tokyo. Professor Shimada's team
performs a sex-change operation.
Thousands of individuals
throughout the world...
have recovered their true sexual identity
through this treatment...
and have become
fit for loving.
Singapore.
A business-wise Japanese tradesman...
has re-opened an old-established
brothel for enterprising tourists...
in which traditional sex fare
is on the menu.
For those seeking
the sexual specialties of Asia...
our host offers
arrangements a la carte:
Wild duck flying upside down,
moaning monkey clinging to the tree...
seasoned with love cries,
tender slaps and love bites...
and the dish of the day, a titbit,
the red snapper:
A palette of Asia's
alt of love.
Don't think the things we're showing you
jumped out of a sci-fi writer's head.
All of it goes on
right around us...
and more people are into it
than you may think.
One could say that sexual perversion
is as old as Man himself.
Otesia relates that Artaxerxes,
the ruler of Babylon...
liked dressing up
in women's clothes.
Helia wrote about the young Athenian
who fell in love with the statue of Aphrodite:
After embracing her ardently he would
run around in a frenzy whilst aroused.
Not to mention
the myth of Narcissus...
who fell in love with his own reflection
in a mirror, and perished for it.
To punish him for this frivolous iniquity,
the gods turned him into a daffodil.
And a second century chronicler describes
how the philosopher Peregrinus Proteus...
would masturbate in public, and then,
as castigation, thrash his own bottom.
From Greek mythology comes the legend
of Pasiphae, who was smitten by a bull...
and had him mount her
whilst ensconced in a portable wooden cow.
There are countless reports
of necrophilia.
Periander, a Corinthian king,
ravished his wife Melissa after she expired.
There were myriad practices
in ancient times to prolong erections.
There were expedients to repeat intercourse
as often and as long as one wished.
Recipes included
paprika seeds...
old wine spiced with ground herbs,
allium onion, eggs and wild honey.
Tigers' testicles were
ingested in China 4000 years ago.
Indian priests proposed the glans
of sacrificial beasts to increase potency.
Prosperous patriarchs
in ancient Rome...
sucked the breath
from young maidens for invigoration.
New Caledonia, Melanesia.
These aborigines are preparing for a
fertility ceremony that takes place each year.
The fertility rite
is a real marathon of love...
an endurance contest that goes on
for three days and three nights.
On the eve of the festivities
the participants...
prepare themselves for their
performances with copious bloodletting...
convinced that this will increase
both sexual prowess and endurance.
Professor, when does human sexuality
first manifest itself?
I would say that it already occurs
in the uterus...
with the initial contact
with the embryo's genitalia.
No one today denies this exchange
between mother and child.
This reciprocal attachment is perhaps
the most important contribution to life itself...
and establishes the conditions for a future
cohabitation and later sexual relationships.
In this respect man and monkey
have a lot in common...
as Harlow's experiments
demonstrated.
A rhesus monkey was nurtured
by its mother through a dummy...
thus denying the offspring
direct contact and natural affection.
Character disorders and sexual irregularity
in adulthood resulted.
Taking this a step further
we can examine our own sex life...
which is basically
a reproductive mechanism.
This law of nature has its anatomical attribute,
the development of our glands...
which measure the sexual maturity
of an individual.
The time it takes to come to maturity,
and the intensity...
varies from person to person
and community to community.
It is one of mankind's
most deep-rooted mysteries...
and every individual must come to terms
with his own maturity...
though this can have
tragic consequences for his sex life...
if he harbors
any illusions about it.
Cognizance of the maturity
of one's sexual awareness...
in the exchange of giving and taking
makes for the enrichment of life.
Each individual must find
this knowledge for himself.
This is Kandisababa,
a village in Papua.
They believe a virgin is unclean -
a sacrosanct belief amongst these people.
The task of deflowering
the village girls...
is given to a neighboring tribe,
the Okuboku, known as the Purifiers.
They have just arrived to work
on these curious and expectant maidens.
Afterwards the girls will be handed over
to the men of their own tribe...
who are grateful
and content.
The ceremony takes place in a long house
called "The Temple of Purification".
The girls, the youngest are 8 years old,
have picked their purifiers...
and can't wait for the act that will
make them women to be consummated -
which will concurrently make cuckolds
of their future husbands.
An obsession with a particular part
of a partner's body...
All that turns me on
is a woman's breasts and buttocks.
Even if I just brush against them
I have to get away and jerk off.
As far as I'm concerned, breasts and asses
are all super, even if they're a little flabby.
Coitus was never a big deal,
I never fancied it.
It strikes me
as a pointless waste of energy.
When summer comes,
I feel the pull of the French Riviera...
where there's
tits and ass all over.
Professor Krafft-Ebing researched
this form of sexual aberration exhaustively...
and described it
in great detail.
The fetishist isn't interested
if a woman is dressed or undressed.
His sexual interest centers on
a particular item of a woman's clothing.
He believes he can possess
the whole woman via this item.
We call this psycho-pathology
clothes fetishism.
Body parts can also enter
into this fetishism, not only genitalia:
The hand, the foot,
a part of the thigh and so on.
Fetishism also includes
sexual excitement through breast sucking...
without any further sexual elucidation,
which alone prompts an ejaculation.
Another interesting manifestation
elevates death to a fetish.
I prefer
not to reveal my name.
I'm 32 and what the experts
call a fetishist.
I only turn on when
I see a woman lying in a coffin.
I pay a prostitute lots of money
just to lie in my coffin and play dead.
I strew her
with lace and flowers.
Myself I dress up as a priest
or a kid off the street.
The scent of incense makes me horny.
I swear I never wanted to sleep with it.
It never crossed my mind.
You'll want to know why I don't look
for real corpses instead of paying a whore.
Well, I'd rather pick up a slut in a bar
to do it, but that wouldn't work.
They'd turn me in right away,
and I'd probably end up in a mad house.
And real dead bodies?
No, too scaly.
I need to work out
my fantasy to get off.
The scent of incense,
the smell of the woman, my priest's rig...
it all comes together to give me
an incredible high, like I'm about to explode.
And my coffin has a specially
designed contraption for that.
When those white buttocks
loom up before my eyes...
just a couple of seconds
and I come and come!
Another interesting aspect
regards pseudo fetishes...
where the fetish isn't a body part
but a bodily disorder.
Krafft-Ebing relates
the case of Andreas H., 44...
who finds excitement
beholding women with pustules...
pimples and
other skin eruptions.
The person is of no interest to him,
it is the affliction that matters.
Once alone, he only needs to conjure up
these pustules and eczemas...
to excite himself
all over again.
It can be excluded that
he would ever sleep with these persons.
Wagner chronicles a case
of old-age fetishism.
A patient, K.R., tells him
in a psychiatric session...
that he seeks sexual contact
only with old women.
He relates that his first sexual experience
at age 17 was with an older lady...
and he has since
entertained no desire for anything less.
Krafft-Ebing cites
the case of V., age 30...
who comes from a family
suffering multiple disorders.
She is highly neurotic.
Since her 17th birthday she has only been
attracted by men with bodily afflictions.
The patient has no idea
of the origin of her aberration...
nor her morbid attraction
to cripples.
She is so excited
by these individuals...
that it doesn't matter to her
if they are attractive or ugly.
Another Krafft-Ebing case study concerns X.,
age 28, the daughter of disturbed parents.
A girl with a neurotic,
hypersensitive character.
When she was 7, she was attached
to a backward school friend.
At 12, she was past puberty and had
her first sexual experience with her friend.
As a result of this experience she can only
get satisfaction with handicapped partners.
A man with her childhood friend's affliction
became her fetish.
A further Krafft-Ebing case study
concerns P., age 25...
who just yearns sex
with hunchbacks.
She feels an overwhelming desire for these
individuals, who bring her to a powerful climax.
The patient confesses
she is lascivious...
and only regrets that her sexual needs
cannot be fulfilled.
She had her first sexual relations at age 22
and since then only five further experiences.
Were she to find
a hunchback...
she would marry him
and make him a happy slouch.
There are of course other variations
on the fetish theme...
and also combinations,
for example together with sado-masochism.
When I sense a crisis approaching
I have a room prepared in a clinic.
Then I put an ad in a men's magazine
for an available couple.
They have to be
young and good-looking.
They have to turn each other on
but they mustn't touch one another.
At the same time,
I have to smother myself with cream...
and I come 4 or 5 times
in an hour.
Let us consider another
interesting case of fetishism.
It doesn't centre on an object, but on
the need to be bound in a particular situation.
M.R. was found
in an attic...
suffocated with a plastic bag
drawn over his head...
whilst fettered by a painful
and ingenious mesh of chains.
M.S. committed suicide
after appalling self-punishment...
by shackling
and constricting his arteries.
B.Z. also hanged
and castrated himself.
He dressed in a garish woman's wig,
ladies underwear...
and a cassock
open in the front.
Krafft-Ebing coined
the term "masochism"...
after the famous
Austrian writer Sacher-Masoch.
As masochism, Krafft-Ebing
defines sexual perversions...
determined by a partner's
particular sexual choice.
Into this category falls the desire
to humiliate, degrade and subjugate oneself.
There follows the predilection
for suffering and pain.
The borderline between pain and pleasure
is blurred and equivocal.
Whenever I feel the urge
I hole up in a flat I've specially rented.
I call for three whores whom I've trained
to treat me the way I want.
It's always the same scene:
the three girls take a bath together...
the water gives the idea
it's boiling hot.
I make out I want to join them
in the tub.
I first ask them nicely,
then I plead and finally threaten them.
They mustn't give in to me,
but beat me up instead...
until I collapse
on the bathroom floor.
Then they climb out of the tub
and walk over me.
I want them to wipe their feet on my back
like I was a bathmat.
As soon as they've all left the tub
I plunge my head into it...
slurp the water
and come to a climax, totally satisfied.
Is it true that there is
a fetish called pygmalionism...
in which one has sex
with statues and other icons?
Even if many such sexual actions
can be involved...
one shouldn't forget that the concept
is close to religious practices.
Pygmalionism is
an interesting phenomenon...
even if less significant
than other perversions.
We know from antiquity
of Sisyphus of Samos...
who abused statues of goddesses
investing their organs with flesh-like matter.
This legend illustrates the fact that
inventiveness will always find a path...
to satisfy sexual desires.
We gather that such usage is practiced
even today amongst primitive peoples.
North Cameroon.
Our crew filmed modern pygmalionism.
The natives celebrate Kaala,
a fertility and conception fetish.
They hope to reward themselves
with countless children...
and a bumper harvest
from the parched fields.
There are brothels
that cater to this perversion.
Certain prostitutes pose as statues
for congruous customers.
As a child I was deeply impressed
by the story of Pygmalion...
who fell in love with a statue
that he himself had sculpted.
Aphrodite took pity on the hopeless lover
and brought his statue to life...
so he could fulfill
his desire.
I go through this torture
every Wednesday.
For the first couple of hours
he spreads plaster all over me...
and as soon as it dries
I can't move a muscle.
Every Wednesday,
when I visit my statue...
I feel this excitement come
all over me again, like it was the first time.
The object of my deepest veneration
is there before me...
motionless and marvelously shaped,
but unapproachable.
It's always the same:
he gets down on his knees...
and spouts away
for half an hour.
I get a bit of cramp
because I have to lie stock-still.
How happily would I bind you with silk ribbons
and entwine you with fragrant flowers...
strew your body with jewels
and make offerings to you.
If all the punters I come across
behaved like him, I'd quit tomorrow.
When I've had my fill of her marble form,
I'm overwhelmed by the desire to penetrate.
There we go, there's beds
everywhere in this establishment...
but only this guy
has to do it standing up!
What is narcissism?
A narcissist is someone
who loves himself above all others...
who is excited by his self-esteem
and achieves sexual satisfaction...
through the consummation
of his amour-propre.
It is a reciprocal love
for oneself.
Rohleder reports the following case:
X., 35, is very successful in his work...
but extremely repressed
in the company of his colleagues.
He displays no homosexual tendencies
but shows no interest in women.
He is tidy, well-groomed
and smartly dressed.
His favorite sight is of himself in a mirror,
his hair is permanently wavy...
he uses a lot of cologne
and other cosmetics.
I first started to love myself,
body and soul, when I was 14...
my thoughts,
my ways, everything.
I was so in love with myself
that I kept kissing myself in a mirror...
which often brought me
to an orgasm.
The sight of my penis so aroused me
that it staid stiff after an ejaculation...
without even touching it.
Such cases of amour-propre
are often associated with homosexuality...
but do not presuppose it.
Nor on the other hand is onanism
necessarily a symptom of narcissism.
I got more and more excited
looking at my body in the mirror...
I kissed myself and grasped my penis
and began to masturbate.
I loved this second self, which grew
more and more real and physical.
That's how I preserved
my identity.
Professor, how would you define
autoeroticism?
To understand it one must first of all recognize
that onanism begins in early childhood.
This means that even a baby
has sexual perception...
and this sexual awakening
will be long remembered.
In this phase playful mutual touching or
mouth contact with genitalia is not abnormal.
This comportment will disappear
during development...
only to return
for brief or longer periods.
It is a phase
of sexual development.
Self-gratification is an important stimulant
that makes us aware of our own ascendancy.
It shields us from risks and disappointments
without having to forgo sexual satisfaction.
Many newly wed women
complain to sex therapists...
that they only reach orgasm
through masturbation.
You can't imagine
what comes out in these sessions.
Krafft-Ebing, the renowned psychiatrist
and forensic doctor in Austria and Germany...
was of the opinion that masturbation
not only led to perversion...
but that it was
the source of all dissolution.
In Victorian times no measure
was too drastic to condemn self-gratification.
Women caught in the act
had a hot iron pressed to their clitoris...
and men were displayed in a cage
studded with spiked nails...
with their members exposed.
There was torture, the scare of disease,
the threat of hellfire...
a general damnation
of masturbation prevailed.
Millions of masturbators fell prey
to panic and despair.
It is to Professor Havelock-Ellis' credit
that this superstition was laid bare.
European and American statistics reveal
that 95% of all adolescents masturbate...
so that one could well maintain
that only the remaining 5% are aberrant.
Are there different techniques
of masturbation?
Apart from manual means
there are numerous aids for men and women.
The market offers many gadgets
from simple vibrators to high tech products.
From France, for example,
we have the "King-size Comforter"...
a plastic penis with an electric drive
that is introduced into the vagina.
It takes over all the functions
of a natural penis right up to the climax.
Rubber dolls for men have replicas
of all of a woman's attributes.
The plastic woman
can be filled with warm water...
to give the illusion
of body heat...
and can be manipulated
into any position the user wants.
The intimate passage can be lubricated
with oils or creams to make it slick...
to simulate
vaginal secretion.
The artificial partner offers everything a man
could desire for satisfactory intercourse.
Women in Japan practiced
an age-old method of masturbation...
which is apparently
very effective.
It consists of two metal balls
both about the size of a plum.
One is hollow and the other
is filled with quicksilver.
The balls are slid into the vagina,
the hollow one first.
The movement of the hips
causes the quicksilver filled ball...
to push
the hollow one upwards.
The resulting vibration is sensational
and an orgasm is guaranteed.
This technique
is called "Ben Wa".
Where would you classify
voyeurism, professor?
Moll defined voyeurism as mixoscopia
and classified it with masochism...
as a sort of voluntary resolve to refrain
from the active pursuit of pleasure.
Voyeurs are often day-dreamers
who may imagine sexual scenarios...
that go well beyond
anything conceivable.
I went down to this cellar
so I could look up women's skirts.
A very good place
to do it from.
Up above there's the shop window
of a boutique.
The women stand there
looking at the display.
When I see one without panties
I come in two seconds flat.
I'm sometimes there for hours on end.
Once the postman caught me.
He thought I was a burglar
and called the law.
I told them everything,
so as not to go inside...
but they put my name
on their list of Peeping Toms.
I've got three kids but my old lady
doesn't turn me on any more -
with her I'm impotent.
What really turns me on
is a couple fucking.
I prowl parks and parking lots
looking for them.
Then I wank myself silly
watching.
We also believe that exhibitionism
is a perversion.
Flashing my penis
is a great passion of mine.
I like showing it to very young girls
or older ladies and I enjoy shocking them.
Of course I don't want
anything else from them...
the main thing is
they get a good look.
When I'm back home,
I go over it all again in my mind...
masturbating with a vibrator.
As a child I was always told
what a lovely body I had.
Later on they said
I had breasts like marble.
I loved my body and never let
any man get his hands on me...
to preserve its beauty.
Sometimes I run around naked
with my window open...
knowing that men
are watching me from outside.
I've decided to have a plaster cast
of my bosom made...
so I can send
my admirers a copy.
From voyeurism to exhibitionism
we come to troilism.
It is the departure point for group sex,
what is called a sex orgy.
Clearly, these encounters don't only involve
hetero- but also homosexual activities.
Don't think that troilism
is so unusual.
It occurs in all strata of society,
not just the sex saturated top ten thousand.
Love is
a many splendored thing.
I always dreamt of
a threesome.
It gets boring with just one chick
in the long run.
When I'm lying in bed with two birds I feel
so good like I was back in my mother's womb.
And when the two of them get dikey,
I go potty.
Wild!
Oh, man do I get a hard-on!
I find it so groovy,
lying in bed with a girlfriend...
and suddenly
feeling a guy there too.
Anyway,
what's the big deal?
What's your opinion
of beauty contests?
Covert aberrations
can surface in these contests.
At such events very interesting
attitudes can be observed...
that can border
on the perverse.
One must attribute to the spectator
a mixture of voyeurism and fetishism...
confronted by the exhibitionistic
and narcissistic behaviour of the entrants.
To sum up, let's say the male fetishist
fails to see the woman...
the female fetishist the man
and both forget humanity.
We understand sadism
as sexual pleasure derived from abuse...
maltreatment and cruelty
towards people and animals.
The personal gain of pleasure through
pain and suffering of others, is its basis.
The term "sadism" comes from the 18th
century French author Marquis De Sade...
who wrote books
involving sadistic practises.
Sadists risk conflict
with society and the law.
To inflict pain and humility
on others...
can put one outside the borders
of socially acceptable conduct.
Nevertheless, sadism is a red thread
running through the tapestry of mankind.
Cruelty was an outlet,
in the hunt, trial by ordeal...
the treatment of slaves
or public executions.
Let's listen to the famous
Marquis de Sade himself:
To pursuant of pleasure, of every age
and gender, I dedicate my work.
Take my lessons to heart,
befitting your most intimate desire.
These passions tell you apart
from dull and wintry moralists...
even when they paint you
in the darkest of colours.
Very nature has installed you
with these wishes.
Do not heed
the moralists...
your passions alone
will lead you to true happiness.
Shameless women,
follow libidinous Serjeance...
and reject God's laws that hem your lust
and try to rule your lives.
De Sade's conception may be logical
but isn't practicable in this world.
Nevertheless, sadism flickers through to
our daily life irrespective of our education...
for why else would laws exist
to punish cruelty and violence.
Let's listen to De Sade
speak again:
Maidens, bound by the illusion of virtue
and the tastelessness of religion...
imitate
the blazing Eugenie.
Fight back with resolution and
stamp on the feet of incompetent elders.
Unbridled lovers...
don't let youth restrain your feelings
nor dictate your very needs.
Let cynical Dolmence
be your guide...
when you step out
on the glowing road to immorality.
Let us look at that
most horrendous form of sadism...
that Krafft-Ebing termed
the ultimate perversion, the sex murder.
It's stronger than me.
It's not my fault, when I squeeze
the last breath out of a woman's body.
It drives me crazy.
It's like a bloody mist
in front of my eyes.
Die, die, you bloody slut!
Most sex killings are by strangulation,
without recourse to weapons.
The sex murder is the most miserable,
gruesome sexual perversity.
Along with drug addiction
it has increased in frequency.
Aphrodisiacs, formulas to increase
sexual duration and potency...
are named after
the Greek goddess of love Aphrodite.
These products have been concocted
from seeds and roots...
since the dawn of time and increased
performance has always been a must.
If you ask me if they're effective
I must simply answer no.
In most cases they consist of extracts,
roots, hormones and drugs...
but also
stimulating literature -
all means to enable man
to realise an imaginary dream.
Some of these means
are fraught with danger...
whose effects are only evident later and
lead to self-deception and a loss of reality.
The use and misuse
of aphrodisiacs...
from harmless household remedies
to dangerous drugs...
has a long
and continuing history.
Meanwhile, the sex therapist
in his white smock and sterile surgery...
has taken over
from witches and sorcerers.
I was totally frigid.
LSD helped me
become a woman.
It sparked off my evolution and
made me experience totally new things.
A man could satisfy me at last
or I could do it alone.
Only the drug can help a person like me
to find my inner self.
I couldn't live
without acid.
It helps you...
but it can be lethal.
This is Bamana territory
in Central Africa.
A centuries old ritual combining
sex and magic is performed here.
The Niagas are powerful spirits,
who come from afar...
to rob the village girls
of their virginity.
The Bamanas believe the Niagas
are invulnerable...
because if they are threatened
they will retreat into the hereafter.
The ritual symbolises
the struggle between life and death.
The spirits have come
to deflower a maiden.
Naturally, the village witch doctor
benefits most from this custom.
Demons, sex shamans,
evil spirits, male and female...
sexual encounters
with the dead...
belong to the Middle Ages
yet they are still present in modern times.
Many sects have been founded
in America and Europe...
devoting themselves
to black magic and secret rituals.
These groups
are generally peaceful...
but sometimes
in the course of their ceremonies...
they desecrate graves
and torture innocent people.
These sects have a leader,
a sort of high priest...
who has absolute power
over his followers.
Omnipotent, he demands total submission,
which will happily be offered to him...
as self-abnegation is a precondition
of acceptance in the sect.
The leader of the sect
radiates magnetic strength.
He has a strong, though negative,
personality and is a sexual psychopath...
which may help explain
his disciples' dependence and their apathy.
Any sexual conduct is allowed
the members of this sect of Satan.
The principal ceremony at their gathering
is the reversing of holy mass in blasphemy.
An endless succession of atrocities
and perversion follows.
However one looks at it, this performance
doesn't just offend our sensibility.
These are simply criminals at loose
giving free reign to their carnal cravings.
These obscenities and sexual frolics
are examples of pathological behaviourism.
The term "coprophilia"
denotes the erotic desire...
that is appeased by the sight
or contact with excrement.
"Coprophagy" is the eating or drinking
thereof as sexual arousal.
Such cases are not rare
and ever more frequent.
All bodily excretions are palatable:
phlegm, earwax and human feces.
Cantanaro reports a case where the male
could only complete coitus...
when he bit, licked
and sucked his partner...
but only on the condition
she neither washed nor bathed.
I'm only interested
in a woman's pubic hair.
When I pull it out with my teeth,
I go crazy.
That's the only way
I come.
Sometimes I pay the hotel staff
to let me into beds in the morning...
where women have slept
so I can look for their pubic hair.
I was totally inexperienced
when I married...
and my husband
was much older.
On our first night he had me sit astride him
and pee into a goblet.
I left him the next day
and went back to my parents.
I've finally discovered
what gives me satisfaction:
When my wife sits on my chest
and vacates her bowels on my body.
That's the only way
I get a hard-on.
I spend a lot of time in bars,
restaurants and parks.
When I see a woman
go to the bathroom I follow her.
If she disappears into the toilet
I pretend to wash my hands.
Then I peep through the keyhole
to watch her doing her business.
A particular kind of coprophage
is the "renifleur" or "sniffier".
He is gratified
by the odour of excrement.
Public lavatories
hold a particular appeal for him.
As soon as she leaves the lavatory,
I run in and smell the toilet bowl...
imagining the most beautiful women
in the world and I come.
Eating someone
from one's own tribe...
has a transcendental significance
in some native societies...
and they use
the same word for coitus.
Cannibalism is only exceptionally
permitted or requested...
as it represents
the magic of reconciliation.
In addition all the members of a tribe together
form a unifying entity or single organism.
For this reason
on the death of the chief...
they must all smear themselves with the
secretion seeping from his decaying corpse...
to strengthen
their common bond with him.
To demonstrate the interaction between
cannibalism or autophagy and sexuality...
I will cite an example
from New Guinea.
It was reported that a grave
had been found desecrated.
A woman accompanied by relatives
had appeared...
and eaten the flesh
of her dead brother.
Although ritual cannibalism
was permitted...
she had shocked the clan members...
by breaking the rules...
for by consuming the corpse
she had wanted to possess the deceased.
To partake of the flesh of one's own clan
in order to bond with him...
counted as an outrageous violation
of clan customs, comparable to incest.
At this point we should return
to a very rare perversion - necrophilia.
This sort of
corpse robbery...
must be classified apart in the order of
sexual psychopathology...
as does Krafft-Ebing.
Herodotus reports that in ancient Egypt
a distinguished widower...
wouldn't bring his deceased wife
directly to the embalmers -
especially if she was
young and beautiful.
The law prescribed that a corpse should be
delivered only three days after the demise...
to prevent the crude embalmers
from taking advantage of it.
A wise law that took into account
the deplorable state of affairs.
Nevertheless, Herodus relates,
an embalmer was caught...
amusing himself
with a woman's warm corpse.
His colleagues reported him
to the council of priests.
As a child I had this terrible compulsion
to destroy anything I got hold of.
When I was 13 I wanted
to have all women sexually...
and I masturbated
whenever I had a chance.
I imagined myself in the same room
with lots of women screwing them...
and beating them up.
They seemed nothing more than living dead
and I could do what I wanted to them.
This fantasy gradually
got more and more compelling.
Since I couldn't get hold of a dead woman
I made do with dead animals...
which I carved up
and tore apart in a mad frenzy.
After that I had just one longing:
to get hold of a woman's corpse.
I was terribly afraid at first
but when I found a freshly dug grave...
I went out of control.
Excitement overwhelmed me
and I nearly passed out.
I could hardly
keep my balance.
I felt like a hunter who'd caught his prey
when I saw the coffin.
When I got the lid off
I caught sight of a beautiful body.
I had just one desire:
to possess her.
In this case we clearly see
strong sadistic traits in the necrophiliac.
Alternatively - one must treat
each case separately -
the corpse can be viewed
as a fetish.
I spent a quarter of an hour
cutting her up...
and I got more and more frenzied
as I tore her innards out.
It was even crazier
than the intercourse.
Sexual relations between man and beast-
not to be confused with a love of animals -
is called sodomy.
Can you elaborate on this, professor?
Whilst people today consider sexual relations
with animals aberrant and unacceptable...
it wasn't always so...
as Egyptian and Indian
mythology testify.
Zoophilia is possibly
quite common in China.
In Africa and the Orient, erotic exchanges
with animals aren't so covert as in the West.
They are tolerated
and not criminalized.
Healing powers and magical tutelage
are often attributed to them.
Professor, can an unhealthy and excessive
love of animals lead to sodomy...
particularly amongst
uninhibited subjects?
Of course there are people
who do feel sexual attraction to animals...
and have lost all their inhibitions.
I call them degenerates.
They seek to fulfill their desires
in this or any other way.
Krafft-Ebing called
this activity "zooerasty".
Nothing went on between me
and my husband anymore.
Whenever I got close to him he used an
excuse like he was too tired or overworked.
One day he told me he didn't feel
anything for me like that anymore.
But if I found something else
that turned him on we could stay together.
I said okay because
I didn't want to lose him.
This case is related by Sun.
B. is 27 years old and mother of eight.
Her husband requires her
to couple frequently with a sheepdog.
The stimulating factor, as we found out,
is not the animal itself...
but the singularity
of this sexual act.
Coitus occurred twice
after the woman went on all fours.
Mr. B. declares it began as simple curiosity,
to procure pleasure for his wife.
The couple's doctor testifies
to the truth of the story:
Mrs. B had to take her clothes off
in front of the dog.
Mrs. B got down
on all fours...
and the dog promptly approached her
to consummate coitus with her.
Professor, Krafft-Ebing
speaks of erotic zoophilia.
Zoophilia is described
as a situation...
in which an animal exercises
a strong force of attraction over a person.
I never reached a climax with a man.
I thought I was frigid.
Then one day
when I climbed on a horse...
I felt an incredibly pleasant sensation,
like I'd never felt before.
Two weeks later the same thing happened
on a horse, only this time I had an orgasm.
I was frightened at first and upset
but I quickly got accustomed to it.
I dreamed only of horses.
My orgasms got more and more intense
when I saw a stallion mount a mare.
I just flipped out,
I nearly went crazy.
Coitus is most fulfilling now
when I do it in a stall...
specially with
lots of horses there.
Couldn't one also define
this as voyeurism?
Absolutely, since zoophilia is a perversion
common to hypersensitive subjects.
That is why it is also coherent
that a subject with an overactive libido...
is affected
by a sort of rapture.
There is a variety of combinations
regarding deviations in sexual behaviour.
Ethnology demonstrates that homosexuality,
transvestism and oral sex...
are judged differently
by different cultures.
They are either tolerated
or criminalized as perversions.
In no other area of life is tolerance
so fundamental as in the sexual sphere...
which doesn't mean that sexual of fences
can be justified or excused.
But it leads us to consider our view
of marriage, faithfulness, virginity...
as terms of reference that let us separate
merits from demerits.
Intolerance harbours the danger that anything
that doesn't conform to set standards...
will be considered perverse,
the non-conformist judged aberrant.
How readily we call our neighbour
a satyr or his wife a nymphomaniac...
but are we fully aware
of the meaning of these terms?
Such biased behaviour often betrays a defect
in the sexual conduct of the beholder.
Intolerance has a lot in common
with falsity.
Like a worm within a fruit
it bores into the soul...
and corrupts the mind
of a healthy person.
A Chinese sage, contemplating the magic
power of sex 2000 years ago, pronounced:
The meeting of the sexes
can only be compared...
to the encounter
with the cosmos.
We wish to experience
this encounter as humans...
in a universe
that is our own.
THE END
had taken from man...
And Adam said: 'This is now bone
of my bones, and flesh of my flesh.'
She shall be called Woman,
because she was taken out of Man.
Therefore shall a man
leave his father and his mother...
and shall cleave unto his wife:
and they shall be one flesh."
And thus was sensuality born,
and sexual desire.
But when desire and invention intertwine,
perversity ensues.
The psychiatrist
Krafft-Ebing wrote:
A sexual impulse that defies nature
is perverse...
and will lead further
in this direction.
So each person should explore
the reaches of his natural sexuality...
and find fulfillment there.
This film will attempt
to illustrate sexual aberrations...
help us to cure them and help
to understand others that are prey to them.
THIS FILM IS FREELY ADAPTED FROM:
Krafft-Ebing
refers in his work...
to the sexual connotations in ceremonies
practiced by primitive peoples.
The spectrum of perversion is just as broad
for fantasy knows no limits.
When I meet a woman I feel absolutely
no desire to sleep normally with her.
I just want to
subject myself to her.
I only seek contact with the body parts
that excite me.
She must tread on me, no rush,
for minutes on end.
Tread on my chest, my stomach,
my thighs, and finally my penis.
I like having my throat stepped on,
like she was strangling me with her foot.
During my climax, I like her to block
my sperm, first with the heel then the sole...
to prolong my pleasure.
Then something
strange happens:
I imagine that she's doing this to me
to punish me because I treated her bad.
Sometimes I get trodden on so hard
I'm marked for days afterwards.
This is Melinda,
24 years old.
She lives in New York.
Melinda is a so-called "transsexual".
She accepts her condition
and makes the most of it.
Melinda either does it for free
or she charges $50,000.00 a shot...
explains her manager
David Vogner.
Who is this strange
creature Melinda?
A lot of men
come after me.
They never have a hang-up -
quite the opposite.
The fact I'm a she-man
seems to be a big turn-on.
A loaded Mexican paid $50,000.00
to sleep with me.
What did we do?
Just guess.
Besides, I don't just play
the passive homosexual role.
Melinda, 24 years old, transsexual,
a real hermaphrodite.
She - or he - claims quite candidly
to be happy...
in her dual
male/female personality.
We are in the Onbangisciari tribal area
of Guinea in Equatorial Africa.
This man was caught in the act
with the medicine man's wife.
Adultery is punished in Guinea with
the most brutal penalty: emasculation.
Tokyo. Professor Shimada's team
performs a sex-change operation.
Thousands of individuals
throughout the world...
have recovered their true sexual identity
through this treatment...
and have become
fit for loving.
Singapore.
A business-wise Japanese tradesman...
has re-opened an old-established
brothel for enterprising tourists...
in which traditional sex fare
is on the menu.
For those seeking
the sexual specialties of Asia...
our host offers
arrangements a la carte:
Wild duck flying upside down,
moaning monkey clinging to the tree...
seasoned with love cries,
tender slaps and love bites...
and the dish of the day, a titbit,
the red snapper:
A palette of Asia's
alt of love.
Don't think the things we're showing you
jumped out of a sci-fi writer's head.
All of it goes on
right around us...
and more people are into it
than you may think.
One could say that sexual perversion
is as old as Man himself.
Otesia relates that Artaxerxes,
the ruler of Babylon...
liked dressing up
in women's clothes.
Helia wrote about the young Athenian
who fell in love with the statue of Aphrodite:
After embracing her ardently he would
run around in a frenzy whilst aroused.
Not to mention
the myth of Narcissus...
who fell in love with his own reflection
in a mirror, and perished for it.
To punish him for this frivolous iniquity,
the gods turned him into a daffodil.
And a second century chronicler describes
how the philosopher Peregrinus Proteus...
would masturbate in public, and then,
as castigation, thrash his own bottom.
From Greek mythology comes the legend
of Pasiphae, who was smitten by a bull...
and had him mount her
whilst ensconced in a portable wooden cow.
There are countless reports
of necrophilia.
Periander, a Corinthian king,
ravished his wife Melissa after she expired.
There were myriad practices
in ancient times to prolong erections.
There were expedients to repeat intercourse
as often and as long as one wished.
Recipes included
paprika seeds...
old wine spiced with ground herbs,
allium onion, eggs and wild honey.
Tigers' testicles were
ingested in China 4000 years ago.
Indian priests proposed the glans
of sacrificial beasts to increase potency.
Prosperous patriarchs
in ancient Rome...
sucked the breath
from young maidens for invigoration.
New Caledonia, Melanesia.
These aborigines are preparing for a
fertility ceremony that takes place each year.
The fertility rite
is a real marathon of love...
an endurance contest that goes on
for three days and three nights.
On the eve of the festivities
the participants...
prepare themselves for their
performances with copious bloodletting...
convinced that this will increase
both sexual prowess and endurance.
Professor, when does human sexuality
first manifest itself?
I would say that it already occurs
in the uterus...
with the initial contact
with the embryo's genitalia.
No one today denies this exchange
between mother and child.
This reciprocal attachment is perhaps
the most important contribution to life itself...
and establishes the conditions for a future
cohabitation and later sexual relationships.
In this respect man and monkey
have a lot in common...
as Harlow's experiments
demonstrated.
A rhesus monkey was nurtured
by its mother through a dummy...
thus denying the offspring
direct contact and natural affection.
Character disorders and sexual irregularity
in adulthood resulted.
Taking this a step further
we can examine our own sex life...
which is basically
a reproductive mechanism.
This law of nature has its anatomical attribute,
the development of our glands...
which measure the sexual maturity
of an individual.
The time it takes to come to maturity,
and the intensity...
varies from person to person
and community to community.
It is one of mankind's
most deep-rooted mysteries...
and every individual must come to terms
with his own maturity...
though this can have
tragic consequences for his sex life...
if he harbors
any illusions about it.
Cognizance of the maturity
of one's sexual awareness...
in the exchange of giving and taking
makes for the enrichment of life.
Each individual must find
this knowledge for himself.
This is Kandisababa,
a village in Papua.
They believe a virgin is unclean -
a sacrosanct belief amongst these people.
The task of deflowering
the village girls...
is given to a neighboring tribe,
the Okuboku, known as the Purifiers.
They have just arrived to work
on these curious and expectant maidens.
Afterwards the girls will be handed over
to the men of their own tribe...
who are grateful
and content.
The ceremony takes place in a long house
called "The Temple of Purification".
The girls, the youngest are 8 years old,
have picked their purifiers...
and can't wait for the act that will
make them women to be consummated -
which will concurrently make cuckolds
of their future husbands.
An obsession with a particular part
of a partner's body...
All that turns me on
is a woman's breasts and buttocks.
Even if I just brush against them
I have to get away and jerk off.
As far as I'm concerned, breasts and asses
are all super, even if they're a little flabby.
Coitus was never a big deal,
I never fancied it.
It strikes me
as a pointless waste of energy.
When summer comes,
I feel the pull of the French Riviera...
where there's
tits and ass all over.
Professor Krafft-Ebing researched
this form of sexual aberration exhaustively...
and described it
in great detail.
The fetishist isn't interested
if a woman is dressed or undressed.
His sexual interest centers on
a particular item of a woman's clothing.
He believes he can possess
the whole woman via this item.
We call this psycho-pathology
clothes fetishism.
Body parts can also enter
into this fetishism, not only genitalia:
The hand, the foot,
a part of the thigh and so on.
Fetishism also includes
sexual excitement through breast sucking...
without any further sexual elucidation,
which alone prompts an ejaculation.
Another interesting manifestation
elevates death to a fetish.
I prefer
not to reveal my name.
I'm 32 and what the experts
call a fetishist.
I only turn on when
I see a woman lying in a coffin.
I pay a prostitute lots of money
just to lie in my coffin and play dead.
I strew her
with lace and flowers.
Myself I dress up as a priest
or a kid off the street.
The scent of incense makes me horny.
I swear I never wanted to sleep with it.
It never crossed my mind.
You'll want to know why I don't look
for real corpses instead of paying a whore.
Well, I'd rather pick up a slut in a bar
to do it, but that wouldn't work.
They'd turn me in right away,
and I'd probably end up in a mad house.
And real dead bodies?
No, too scaly.
I need to work out
my fantasy to get off.
The scent of incense,
the smell of the woman, my priest's rig...
it all comes together to give me
an incredible high, like I'm about to explode.
And my coffin has a specially
designed contraption for that.
When those white buttocks
loom up before my eyes...
just a couple of seconds
and I come and come!
Another interesting aspect
regards pseudo fetishes...
where the fetish isn't a body part
but a bodily disorder.
Krafft-Ebing relates
the case of Andreas H., 44...
who finds excitement
beholding women with pustules...
pimples and
other skin eruptions.
The person is of no interest to him,
it is the affliction that matters.
Once alone, he only needs to conjure up
these pustules and eczemas...
to excite himself
all over again.
It can be excluded that
he would ever sleep with these persons.
Wagner chronicles a case
of old-age fetishism.
A patient, K.R., tells him
in a psychiatric session...
that he seeks sexual contact
only with old women.
He relates that his first sexual experience
at age 17 was with an older lady...
and he has since
entertained no desire for anything less.
Krafft-Ebing cites
the case of V., age 30...
who comes from a family
suffering multiple disorders.
She is highly neurotic.
Since her 17th birthday she has only been
attracted by men with bodily afflictions.
The patient has no idea
of the origin of her aberration...
nor her morbid attraction
to cripples.
She is so excited
by these individuals...
that it doesn't matter to her
if they are attractive or ugly.
Another Krafft-Ebing case study concerns X.,
age 28, the daughter of disturbed parents.
A girl with a neurotic,
hypersensitive character.
When she was 7, she was attached
to a backward school friend.
At 12, she was past puberty and had
her first sexual experience with her friend.
As a result of this experience she can only
get satisfaction with handicapped partners.
A man with her childhood friend's affliction
became her fetish.
A further Krafft-Ebing case study
concerns P., age 25...
who just yearns sex
with hunchbacks.
She feels an overwhelming desire for these
individuals, who bring her to a powerful climax.
The patient confesses
she is lascivious...
and only regrets that her sexual needs
cannot be fulfilled.
She had her first sexual relations at age 22
and since then only five further experiences.
Were she to find
a hunchback...
she would marry him
and make him a happy slouch.
There are of course other variations
on the fetish theme...
and also combinations,
for example together with sado-masochism.
When I sense a crisis approaching
I have a room prepared in a clinic.
Then I put an ad in a men's magazine
for an available couple.
They have to be
young and good-looking.
They have to turn each other on
but they mustn't touch one another.
At the same time,
I have to smother myself with cream...
and I come 4 or 5 times
in an hour.
Let us consider another
interesting case of fetishism.
It doesn't centre on an object, but on
the need to be bound in a particular situation.
M.R. was found
in an attic...
suffocated with a plastic bag
drawn over his head...
whilst fettered by a painful
and ingenious mesh of chains.
M.S. committed suicide
after appalling self-punishment...
by shackling
and constricting his arteries.
B.Z. also hanged
and castrated himself.
He dressed in a garish woman's wig,
ladies underwear...
and a cassock
open in the front.
Krafft-Ebing coined
the term "masochism"...
after the famous
Austrian writer Sacher-Masoch.
As masochism, Krafft-Ebing
defines sexual perversions...
determined by a partner's
particular sexual choice.
Into this category falls the desire
to humiliate, degrade and subjugate oneself.
There follows the predilection
for suffering and pain.
The borderline between pain and pleasure
is blurred and equivocal.
Whenever I feel the urge
I hole up in a flat I've specially rented.
I call for three whores whom I've trained
to treat me the way I want.
It's always the same scene:
the three girls take a bath together...
the water gives the idea
it's boiling hot.
I make out I want to join them
in the tub.
I first ask them nicely,
then I plead and finally threaten them.
They mustn't give in to me,
but beat me up instead...
until I collapse
on the bathroom floor.
Then they climb out of the tub
and walk over me.
I want them to wipe their feet on my back
like I was a bathmat.
As soon as they've all left the tub
I plunge my head into it...
slurp the water
and come to a climax, totally satisfied.
Is it true that there is
a fetish called pygmalionism...
in which one has sex
with statues and other icons?
Even if many such sexual actions
can be involved...
one shouldn't forget that the concept
is close to religious practices.
Pygmalionism is
an interesting phenomenon...
even if less significant
than other perversions.
We know from antiquity
of Sisyphus of Samos...
who abused statues of goddesses
investing their organs with flesh-like matter.
This legend illustrates the fact that
inventiveness will always find a path...
to satisfy sexual desires.
We gather that such usage is practiced
even today amongst primitive peoples.
North Cameroon.
Our crew filmed modern pygmalionism.
The natives celebrate Kaala,
a fertility and conception fetish.
They hope to reward themselves
with countless children...
and a bumper harvest
from the parched fields.
There are brothels
that cater to this perversion.
Certain prostitutes pose as statues
for congruous customers.
As a child I was deeply impressed
by the story of Pygmalion...
who fell in love with a statue
that he himself had sculpted.
Aphrodite took pity on the hopeless lover
and brought his statue to life...
so he could fulfill
his desire.
I go through this torture
every Wednesday.
For the first couple of hours
he spreads plaster all over me...
and as soon as it dries
I can't move a muscle.
Every Wednesday,
when I visit my statue...
I feel this excitement come
all over me again, like it was the first time.
The object of my deepest veneration
is there before me...
motionless and marvelously shaped,
but unapproachable.
It's always the same:
he gets down on his knees...
and spouts away
for half an hour.
I get a bit of cramp
because I have to lie stock-still.
How happily would I bind you with silk ribbons
and entwine you with fragrant flowers...
strew your body with jewels
and make offerings to you.
If all the punters I come across
behaved like him, I'd quit tomorrow.
When I've had my fill of her marble form,
I'm overwhelmed by the desire to penetrate.
There we go, there's beds
everywhere in this establishment...
but only this guy
has to do it standing up!
What is narcissism?
A narcissist is someone
who loves himself above all others...
who is excited by his self-esteem
and achieves sexual satisfaction...
through the consummation
of his amour-propre.
It is a reciprocal love
for oneself.
Rohleder reports the following case:
X., 35, is very successful in his work...
but extremely repressed
in the company of his colleagues.
He displays no homosexual tendencies
but shows no interest in women.
He is tidy, well-groomed
and smartly dressed.
His favorite sight is of himself in a mirror,
his hair is permanently wavy...
he uses a lot of cologne
and other cosmetics.
I first started to love myself,
body and soul, when I was 14...
my thoughts,
my ways, everything.
I was so in love with myself
that I kept kissing myself in a mirror...
which often brought me
to an orgasm.
The sight of my penis so aroused me
that it staid stiff after an ejaculation...
without even touching it.
Such cases of amour-propre
are often associated with homosexuality...
but do not presuppose it.
Nor on the other hand is onanism
necessarily a symptom of narcissism.
I got more and more excited
looking at my body in the mirror...
I kissed myself and grasped my penis
and began to masturbate.
I loved this second self, which grew
more and more real and physical.
That's how I preserved
my identity.
Professor, how would you define
autoeroticism?
To understand it one must first of all recognize
that onanism begins in early childhood.
This means that even a baby
has sexual perception...
and this sexual awakening
will be long remembered.
In this phase playful mutual touching or
mouth contact with genitalia is not abnormal.
This comportment will disappear
during development...
only to return
for brief or longer periods.
It is a phase
of sexual development.
Self-gratification is an important stimulant
that makes us aware of our own ascendancy.
It shields us from risks and disappointments
without having to forgo sexual satisfaction.
Many newly wed women
complain to sex therapists...
that they only reach orgasm
through masturbation.
You can't imagine
what comes out in these sessions.
Krafft-Ebing, the renowned psychiatrist
and forensic doctor in Austria and Germany...
was of the opinion that masturbation
not only led to perversion...
but that it was
the source of all dissolution.
In Victorian times no measure
was too drastic to condemn self-gratification.
Women caught in the act
had a hot iron pressed to their clitoris...
and men were displayed in a cage
studded with spiked nails...
with their members exposed.
There was torture, the scare of disease,
the threat of hellfire...
a general damnation
of masturbation prevailed.
Millions of masturbators fell prey
to panic and despair.
It is to Professor Havelock-Ellis' credit
that this superstition was laid bare.
European and American statistics reveal
that 95% of all adolescents masturbate...
so that one could well maintain
that only the remaining 5% are aberrant.
Are there different techniques
of masturbation?
Apart from manual means
there are numerous aids for men and women.
The market offers many gadgets
from simple vibrators to high tech products.
From France, for example,
we have the "King-size Comforter"...
a plastic penis with an electric drive
that is introduced into the vagina.
It takes over all the functions
of a natural penis right up to the climax.
Rubber dolls for men have replicas
of all of a woman's attributes.
The plastic woman
can be filled with warm water...
to give the illusion
of body heat...
and can be manipulated
into any position the user wants.
The intimate passage can be lubricated
with oils or creams to make it slick...
to simulate
vaginal secretion.
The artificial partner offers everything a man
could desire for satisfactory intercourse.
Women in Japan practiced
an age-old method of masturbation...
which is apparently
very effective.
It consists of two metal balls
both about the size of a plum.
One is hollow and the other
is filled with quicksilver.
The balls are slid into the vagina,
the hollow one first.
The movement of the hips
causes the quicksilver filled ball...
to push
the hollow one upwards.
The resulting vibration is sensational
and an orgasm is guaranteed.
This technique
is called "Ben Wa".
Where would you classify
voyeurism, professor?
Moll defined voyeurism as mixoscopia
and classified it with masochism...
as a sort of voluntary resolve to refrain
from the active pursuit of pleasure.
Voyeurs are often day-dreamers
who may imagine sexual scenarios...
that go well beyond
anything conceivable.
I went down to this cellar
so I could look up women's skirts.
A very good place
to do it from.
Up above there's the shop window
of a boutique.
The women stand there
looking at the display.
When I see one without panties
I come in two seconds flat.
I'm sometimes there for hours on end.
Once the postman caught me.
He thought I was a burglar
and called the law.
I told them everything,
so as not to go inside...
but they put my name
on their list of Peeping Toms.
I've got three kids but my old lady
doesn't turn me on any more -
with her I'm impotent.
What really turns me on
is a couple fucking.
I prowl parks and parking lots
looking for them.
Then I wank myself silly
watching.
We also believe that exhibitionism
is a perversion.
Flashing my penis
is a great passion of mine.
I like showing it to very young girls
or older ladies and I enjoy shocking them.
Of course I don't want
anything else from them...
the main thing is
they get a good look.
When I'm back home,
I go over it all again in my mind...
masturbating with a vibrator.
As a child I was always told
what a lovely body I had.
Later on they said
I had breasts like marble.
I loved my body and never let
any man get his hands on me...
to preserve its beauty.
Sometimes I run around naked
with my window open...
knowing that men
are watching me from outside.
I've decided to have a plaster cast
of my bosom made...
so I can send
my admirers a copy.
From voyeurism to exhibitionism
we come to troilism.
It is the departure point for group sex,
what is called a sex orgy.
Clearly, these encounters don't only involve
hetero- but also homosexual activities.
Don't think that troilism
is so unusual.
It occurs in all strata of society,
not just the sex saturated top ten thousand.
Love is
a many splendored thing.
I always dreamt of
a threesome.
It gets boring with just one chick
in the long run.
When I'm lying in bed with two birds I feel
so good like I was back in my mother's womb.
And when the two of them get dikey,
I go potty.
Wild!
Oh, man do I get a hard-on!
I find it so groovy,
lying in bed with a girlfriend...
and suddenly
feeling a guy there too.
Anyway,
what's the big deal?
What's your opinion
of beauty contests?
Covert aberrations
can surface in these contests.
At such events very interesting
attitudes can be observed...
that can border
on the perverse.
One must attribute to the spectator
a mixture of voyeurism and fetishism...
confronted by the exhibitionistic
and narcissistic behaviour of the entrants.
To sum up, let's say the male fetishist
fails to see the woman...
the female fetishist the man
and both forget humanity.
We understand sadism
as sexual pleasure derived from abuse...
maltreatment and cruelty
towards people and animals.
The personal gain of pleasure through
pain and suffering of others, is its basis.
The term "sadism" comes from the 18th
century French author Marquis De Sade...
who wrote books
involving sadistic practises.
Sadists risk conflict
with society and the law.
To inflict pain and humility
on others...
can put one outside the borders
of socially acceptable conduct.
Nevertheless, sadism is a red thread
running through the tapestry of mankind.
Cruelty was an outlet,
in the hunt, trial by ordeal...
the treatment of slaves
or public executions.
Let's listen to the famous
Marquis de Sade himself:
To pursuant of pleasure, of every age
and gender, I dedicate my work.
Take my lessons to heart,
befitting your most intimate desire.
These passions tell you apart
from dull and wintry moralists...
even when they paint you
in the darkest of colours.
Very nature has installed you
with these wishes.
Do not heed
the moralists...
your passions alone
will lead you to true happiness.
Shameless women,
follow libidinous Serjeance...
and reject God's laws that hem your lust
and try to rule your lives.
De Sade's conception may be logical
but isn't practicable in this world.
Nevertheless, sadism flickers through to
our daily life irrespective of our education...
for why else would laws exist
to punish cruelty and violence.
Let's listen to De Sade
speak again:
Maidens, bound by the illusion of virtue
and the tastelessness of religion...
imitate
the blazing Eugenie.
Fight back with resolution and
stamp on the feet of incompetent elders.
Unbridled lovers...
don't let youth restrain your feelings
nor dictate your very needs.
Let cynical Dolmence
be your guide...
when you step out
on the glowing road to immorality.
Let us look at that
most horrendous form of sadism...
that Krafft-Ebing termed
the ultimate perversion, the sex murder.
It's stronger than me.
It's not my fault, when I squeeze
the last breath out of a woman's body.
It drives me crazy.
It's like a bloody mist
in front of my eyes.
Die, die, you bloody slut!
Most sex killings are by strangulation,
without recourse to weapons.
The sex murder is the most miserable,
gruesome sexual perversity.
Along with drug addiction
it has increased in frequency.
Aphrodisiacs, formulas to increase
sexual duration and potency...
are named after
the Greek goddess of love Aphrodite.
These products have been concocted
from seeds and roots...
since the dawn of time and increased
performance has always been a must.
If you ask me if they're effective
I must simply answer no.
In most cases they consist of extracts,
roots, hormones and drugs...
but also
stimulating literature -
all means to enable man
to realise an imaginary dream.
Some of these means
are fraught with danger...
whose effects are only evident later and
lead to self-deception and a loss of reality.
The use and misuse
of aphrodisiacs...
from harmless household remedies
to dangerous drugs...
has a long
and continuing history.
Meanwhile, the sex therapist
in his white smock and sterile surgery...
has taken over
from witches and sorcerers.
I was totally frigid.
LSD helped me
become a woman.
It sparked off my evolution and
made me experience totally new things.
A man could satisfy me at last
or I could do it alone.
Only the drug can help a person like me
to find my inner self.
I couldn't live
without acid.
It helps you...
but it can be lethal.
This is Bamana territory
in Central Africa.
A centuries old ritual combining
sex and magic is performed here.
The Niagas are powerful spirits,
who come from afar...
to rob the village girls
of their virginity.
The Bamanas believe the Niagas
are invulnerable...
because if they are threatened
they will retreat into the hereafter.
The ritual symbolises
the struggle between life and death.
The spirits have come
to deflower a maiden.
Naturally, the village witch doctor
benefits most from this custom.
Demons, sex shamans,
evil spirits, male and female...
sexual encounters
with the dead...
belong to the Middle Ages
yet they are still present in modern times.
Many sects have been founded
in America and Europe...
devoting themselves
to black magic and secret rituals.
These groups
are generally peaceful...
but sometimes
in the course of their ceremonies...
they desecrate graves
and torture innocent people.
These sects have a leader,
a sort of high priest...
who has absolute power
over his followers.
Omnipotent, he demands total submission,
which will happily be offered to him...
as self-abnegation is a precondition
of acceptance in the sect.
The leader of the sect
radiates magnetic strength.
He has a strong, though negative,
personality and is a sexual psychopath...
which may help explain
his disciples' dependence and their apathy.
Any sexual conduct is allowed
the members of this sect of Satan.
The principal ceremony at their gathering
is the reversing of holy mass in blasphemy.
An endless succession of atrocities
and perversion follows.
However one looks at it, this performance
doesn't just offend our sensibility.
These are simply criminals at loose
giving free reign to their carnal cravings.
These obscenities and sexual frolics
are examples of pathological behaviourism.
The term "coprophilia"
denotes the erotic desire...
that is appeased by the sight
or contact with excrement.
"Coprophagy" is the eating or drinking
thereof as sexual arousal.
Such cases are not rare
and ever more frequent.
All bodily excretions are palatable:
phlegm, earwax and human feces.
Cantanaro reports a case where the male
could only complete coitus...
when he bit, licked
and sucked his partner...
but only on the condition
she neither washed nor bathed.
I'm only interested
in a woman's pubic hair.
When I pull it out with my teeth,
I go crazy.
That's the only way
I come.
Sometimes I pay the hotel staff
to let me into beds in the morning...
where women have slept
so I can look for their pubic hair.
I was totally inexperienced
when I married...
and my husband
was much older.
On our first night he had me sit astride him
and pee into a goblet.
I left him the next day
and went back to my parents.
I've finally discovered
what gives me satisfaction:
When my wife sits on my chest
and vacates her bowels on my body.
That's the only way
I get a hard-on.
I spend a lot of time in bars,
restaurants and parks.
When I see a woman
go to the bathroom I follow her.
If she disappears into the toilet
I pretend to wash my hands.
Then I peep through the keyhole
to watch her doing her business.
A particular kind of coprophage
is the "renifleur" or "sniffier".
He is gratified
by the odour of excrement.
Public lavatories
hold a particular appeal for him.
As soon as she leaves the lavatory,
I run in and smell the toilet bowl...
imagining the most beautiful women
in the world and I come.
Eating someone
from one's own tribe...
has a transcendental significance
in some native societies...
and they use
the same word for coitus.
Cannibalism is only exceptionally
permitted or requested...
as it represents
the magic of reconciliation.
In addition all the members of a tribe together
form a unifying entity or single organism.
For this reason
on the death of the chief...
they must all smear themselves with the
secretion seeping from his decaying corpse...
to strengthen
their common bond with him.
To demonstrate the interaction between
cannibalism or autophagy and sexuality...
I will cite an example
from New Guinea.
It was reported that a grave
had been found desecrated.
A woman accompanied by relatives
had appeared...
and eaten the flesh
of her dead brother.
Although ritual cannibalism
was permitted...
she had shocked the clan members...
by breaking the rules...
for by consuming the corpse
she had wanted to possess the deceased.
To partake of the flesh of one's own clan
in order to bond with him...
counted as an outrageous violation
of clan customs, comparable to incest.
At this point we should return
to a very rare perversion - necrophilia.
This sort of
corpse robbery...
must be classified apart in the order of
sexual psychopathology...
as does Krafft-Ebing.
Herodotus reports that in ancient Egypt
a distinguished widower...
wouldn't bring his deceased wife
directly to the embalmers -
especially if she was
young and beautiful.
The law prescribed that a corpse should be
delivered only three days after the demise...
to prevent the crude embalmers
from taking advantage of it.
A wise law that took into account
the deplorable state of affairs.
Nevertheless, Herodus relates,
an embalmer was caught...
amusing himself
with a woman's warm corpse.
His colleagues reported him
to the council of priests.
As a child I had this terrible compulsion
to destroy anything I got hold of.
When I was 13 I wanted
to have all women sexually...
and I masturbated
whenever I had a chance.
I imagined myself in the same room
with lots of women screwing them...
and beating them up.
They seemed nothing more than living dead
and I could do what I wanted to them.
This fantasy gradually
got more and more compelling.
Since I couldn't get hold of a dead woman
I made do with dead animals...
which I carved up
and tore apart in a mad frenzy.
After that I had just one longing:
to get hold of a woman's corpse.
I was terribly afraid at first
but when I found a freshly dug grave...
I went out of control.
Excitement overwhelmed me
and I nearly passed out.
I could hardly
keep my balance.
I felt like a hunter who'd caught his prey
when I saw the coffin.
When I got the lid off
I caught sight of a beautiful body.
I had just one desire:
to possess her.
In this case we clearly see
strong sadistic traits in the necrophiliac.
Alternatively - one must treat
each case separately -
the corpse can be viewed
as a fetish.
I spent a quarter of an hour
cutting her up...
and I got more and more frenzied
as I tore her innards out.
It was even crazier
than the intercourse.
Sexual relations between man and beast-
not to be confused with a love of animals -
is called sodomy.
Can you elaborate on this, professor?
Whilst people today consider sexual relations
with animals aberrant and unacceptable...
it wasn't always so...
as Egyptian and Indian
mythology testify.
Zoophilia is possibly
quite common in China.
In Africa and the Orient, erotic exchanges
with animals aren't so covert as in the West.
They are tolerated
and not criminalized.
Healing powers and magical tutelage
are often attributed to them.
Professor, can an unhealthy and excessive
love of animals lead to sodomy...
particularly amongst
uninhibited subjects?
Of course there are people
who do feel sexual attraction to animals...
and have lost all their inhibitions.
I call them degenerates.
They seek to fulfill their desires
in this or any other way.
Krafft-Ebing called
this activity "zooerasty".
Nothing went on between me
and my husband anymore.
Whenever I got close to him he used an
excuse like he was too tired or overworked.
One day he told me he didn't feel
anything for me like that anymore.
But if I found something else
that turned him on we could stay together.
I said okay because
I didn't want to lose him.
This case is related by Sun.
B. is 27 years old and mother of eight.
Her husband requires her
to couple frequently with a sheepdog.
The stimulating factor, as we found out,
is not the animal itself...
but the singularity
of this sexual act.
Coitus occurred twice
after the woman went on all fours.
Mr. B. declares it began as simple curiosity,
to procure pleasure for his wife.
The couple's doctor testifies
to the truth of the story:
Mrs. B had to take her clothes off
in front of the dog.
Mrs. B got down
on all fours...
and the dog promptly approached her
to consummate coitus with her.
Professor, Krafft-Ebing
speaks of erotic zoophilia.
Zoophilia is described
as a situation...
in which an animal exercises
a strong force of attraction over a person.
I never reached a climax with a man.
I thought I was frigid.
Then one day
when I climbed on a horse...
I felt an incredibly pleasant sensation,
like I'd never felt before.
Two weeks later the same thing happened
on a horse, only this time I had an orgasm.
I was frightened at first and upset
but I quickly got accustomed to it.
I dreamed only of horses.
My orgasms got more and more intense
when I saw a stallion mount a mare.
I just flipped out,
I nearly went crazy.
Coitus is most fulfilling now
when I do it in a stall...
specially with
lots of horses there.
Couldn't one also define
this as voyeurism?
Absolutely, since zoophilia is a perversion
common to hypersensitive subjects.
That is why it is also coherent
that a subject with an overactive libido...
is affected
by a sort of rapture.
There is a variety of combinations
regarding deviations in sexual behaviour.
Ethnology demonstrates that homosexuality,
transvestism and oral sex...
are judged differently
by different cultures.
They are either tolerated
or criminalized as perversions.
In no other area of life is tolerance
so fundamental as in the sexual sphere...
which doesn't mean that sexual of fences
can be justified or excused.
But it leads us to consider our view
of marriage, faithfulness, virginity...
as terms of reference that let us separate
merits from demerits.
Intolerance harbours the danger that anything
that doesn't conform to set standards...
will be considered perverse,
the non-conformist judged aberrant.
How readily we call our neighbour
a satyr or his wife a nymphomaniac...
but are we fully aware
of the meaning of these terms?
Such biased behaviour often betrays a defect
in the sexual conduct of the beholder.
Intolerance has a lot in common
with falsity.
Like a worm within a fruit
it bores into the soul...
and corrupts the mind
of a healthy person.
A Chinese sage, contemplating the magic
power of sex 2000 years ago, pronounced:
The meeting of the sexes
can only be compared...
to the encounter
with the cosmos.
We wish to experience
this encounter as humans...
in a universe
that is our own.
THE END
