    Could you link yours? I’d rather not go digging though that stuff right now.

    I’d compare it more to a fetish.

        But this doesn’t mitivate the urges then if you want to put it that way.

          Why not? I obviously don’t have first hand experience, but AFAIK it’s essentially porn for those with the condition. Like any other porn, you watch it, get your rocks off, and forget about it until your hormones recharge. It’s a harmless and victimless outlet for them, probably the only one I can think of.

            You don’t get desensitized to porn over time?

              Not to the point it becomes entirely ineffective. The point here is that we don’t have a better way of dealing with or treating people with this issue. It’s the least-worst option we have available to us.

                I still don’t think feeding/appeasing the problem is better than treating it and cutting it out.

                  I would agree with you, if we had any plausible way of treating and cutting it out. Unfortunately we don’t, short of chemical castration.

                    You think counseling or therapy is entirely ineffective?
