The Sexual Paraphilias : Therapy by Hick-Farmer Sigmund Freud Wannabes

By David J. Todeschini

The Sexual Paraphilias - Therapy by Hick-Farmer Sigmund Freud Wannabes is a concise introduction to human sexual aberrations. All of the major sexual deviations are listed, with their clinical names and descriptions. The author rails the psychiatry profession for their incompetent efforts to "cure" anomalous sexual behavior, particularly the behaviors which are criminal acts, such as rape and pedophilia. The author includes a most excellent analysis of domestic violence entitled "The Battered Spouse and The Abused Child", based on the movie "Once Warriors". Also included is "There is a Way Out", a treatise targeted to victims of domestic violence, and an essay titled "Restorative Justice" that addresses the problem of criminal rehabilitation and prison reform. Extensively footnoted, and seriously humorous in places, this book sheds a whole new light on what America and the world engages in behind closed doors.

LABELS

THE STIGMATA OF SEXUAL BEHAVIOR IN PSYCHIATRY

ACROTEMNOPHILIA / ACROTOMOPHILIA Erotic attraction to disabled people.

APOTEMNOPHILIA A sexual attraction to amputated limbs, or the (sexually-motivated) desire to become an amputee.

AUTOEROTIC ASPHYXIA Becoming sexually aroused by (near) suffocation.

BESTIALITY Having sexual contact or sexual intercourse with an animal. Surprisingly, (to most of us) bestiality seems to have quite a following – see: www.bestiality.com (I’m not kidding!). Sometimes I wonder about the people at PETA⁴³ who recently objected to Japanese Sushi bars because (they say) the Sushi fish is intelligent. My question is how intelligent can a fish be, if it ends up as sushi?⁴⁴

BISEXUALITY Having both male and female sex partners, without a clear preference for either sex – or an affinity for both sexes.

COPROPHAGIA The consumption of feces, from the Greek copros (feces) and phagein (eat). Many animal species have evolved to practice coprophagia; other species do not normally consume feces but may do so under unusual conditions. Only in rare cases is it practiced by humans.

COPROPHILIA Sexual arousal by contact with, or arousal by olfactory⁴⁵ stimulation with feces or bodily wastes. Nobody on Fear Factor⁴⁶ was ever made to eat shit.(What a turn-on, eh? ☺).

DON-JUAN-ISM Excessive sexual behavior (frequency / duration) in men. See: Hypersexuality, Nymphomania.

EPHEBOPHILIA The attraction of an adult towards adolescents, regardless of sex.

EXHIBITIONISM (Flashers) Exposing oneself in public, or to an unsuspecting person. (This behavior may or may not be sexually motivated). Exhibitionism is a tendency to expose ones genitalia to others. For example, a man’s behavior is exhibitionistic when he exposes part of his naked body, usually his genitals, to a total stranger. The sexual behavior is usually limited to genital exposure, and the exhibitionist usually makes no physically harmful advances toward the person. Exhibitionism usually begins during adolescence and continues into adulthood.

FETISHISM People with a fetish experience sexual urges and engage in behavior that is sexually associated with inanimate objects or a fixation upon a particular part of another’s body (usually notthe sexual organs). For example, the object of the fetish could be an article of female clothing such as panties, shoes, or underwear. The fetish behavior usually begins in adolescence and tends to escalate into an obsession or chronic behavior later in adult life.

FROTTEURISM This paraphilia is usually confined to men. Frotteurism is a behavior that focuses a person’s sexual urges onto the touching or rubbing of their body against a non-consenting, unfamiliar woman. Usually the male rubs his genitals against the female. Most commonly, the behavior occurs in a crowded public location – such as a subway car, and then he disappears into the crowd of people. Statistically, frotteurism usually begins in adolescence and the abnormal behavior tends to decrease when the man reaches his late twenties. Note: every normal male high school student is guilty.☺

GENDER IDENTITY DISORDER The DSM-IV catalog of mental disorders identifies Gender Identity Disorder as a persistent, strong cross-gender identification accompanied with a persistent unease with ones sex. According to the DSM-IV, gender identity disorder can occur in childhood, adolescence, or adulthood. Sexually mature individuals may be heterosexual, homosexual, bisexual, or may feel little sexual attraction to either men or women.⁴⁷ Gender Identity Disorder is often confused with transvestism.

HOMOSEXUALITY Sexual attraction to members of one’s own sex. Under political pressure from gay activist groups who demonstrated quite flagrantly at their conventions, the American Psychiatric Association (APA) voted⁴⁸ to delete homosexuality (male), lesbianism (female), and bi-sexuality (promiscuity without gender preference) from their catalog of mental disorders– the Diagnostic Statistical Manual (DSM) – in the early 1980’s. These aberrations are now (unfortunately) considered normal (even by some Episcopalian churches), and the behaviors are taught in public schools as an alternative lifestyle.

HYPER SEXUALITY Nymphomania (in women), Satyriasis or Don-Juan-ism (in men) – an intense, compulsive sex drive which does not result in satisfaction, despite multiple copulations with multiple partners. This condition leads to compulsive promiscuity. It also leads to great relationships if you’re never satisfied, and your significant other is always looking for a toss in the sack. ☺

KLISMAPHILIA Arousal and gratification by being given an enema,⁴⁹ or by insertion of fingers or foreign objects into the rectum. This condition most-often occurs in males, who are stimulated by the pressure of fluids or objects applied to the prostrate gland.

KOMOI Sexual arousal (or preference for) by group sex. The Greek word komoi literally means orgy.

MYSOPHILIA Mysophilia comes from the Greek word mysos or defilement. Mysophilia is a paraphilia wherein one achieves sexual arousal by contact with filth, dirt, dust, or an unclean environment. Does Fear Factor ring a bell? ☺

9781257392957_0011_002.jpg

In A Dirty Same, Dingy Dave (played by James Ransone) gets his kicks from cleaning the floor with his tongue, licking filthy tires, and drinking dirty water from a flower vase.Sounds like a blast, huh? However, as disgusting as that sounds,⁵⁰ it’s also a real fetish. It’s called mysophilia, and as Johnny Knoxville’s character explains in the movie, it’s an attraction to filth and/or filthy surroundings. Some experts lump mysophilia together with sploshing, since both involve deriving pleasure from the messy, but sploshing is (usually) a much more sensual activity: it’s hard to compare licking chocolate pudding off someone’s body with licking used tissues. Others see mysophilia as a cousin to coprophilia–the fetishization of shit–although, truth be told, I’d much rather chew on a cigarette butt than eat poodle poop a la Divine in Pink Flamingos.

NECROPHILIA Sexual contact or intercourse with a dead (human) body. Necrophiliacs have a sexual inclination for corpses. Most necrophiliacs work in a morgue. Wouldn’t you know it, doing a Google⁵¹ search on the word necrophilia turned up a dozen pages of links to web sites devoted to this sick shit – don’t believe it? Here’s one: www.rusnecro.com/english/welcome.htm

NYMPHOMANIA Excessive sexual behvior (frequency / duration) in women. See: Hypersexuality, Don-Juan-ism.

PANTSING The frolicsome removal of the pants of one of the members of a male adolescent group by the other boys in the group, with no attempt to expose his genitals. The presence of girls is not desired.

PEDOPHILIA Sexual contact or (rarely) sexual intercourse with prepubescent children (of either sex). A pedophile is a person, most frequently a man, who focuses his sexual fantasies and sexual behavior almost exclusively towards children. People who enjoy child pornography or kiddie porn are pedophiles.⁵² Some pedophiles are sexually attracted onlytoward children and are not at allattracted to adults. Pedophilia is usually considered a chronic condition by the psychiatry profession. When a pedophile becomes sexually active with a child he/she may:

Undress the child or have the child undress while he watches.

Encourage the child to watch him masturbate.

Touch or fondle the child’s genitals.

Forcefully perform sexual acts on the child.

Coerce or teach the child to perform sexual acts on him.

Have sexual intercourse with the child.⁵³

PEDERASTY Sexual relations between an adult man and a boy (who is usually the passive partner). Often confused with pedophila. Pederasty was widely practiced in Greece, where it often took on a teacher-mentor relationship. In modern times, pederasts usually refer to themselves as boy-lovers, and it is often claimed that the relationship is mutually beneficial, and is not harmful at all to the child involved.

PROTOPARAPHILIA An Archival Approach to Paraphilic Onset and its Chronology Discourse.⁵⁴ A term used to describe a sexual aberration encountered during childhood, most notaly prior to the onset of puberty. Protoparaphilia is a term used to describe the onset of a sexual aberration that develops in childhood, and later (post puberty) manifests itself as the unusual behaviors known as paraphilia– some of which are crimes (i.e.: pedophilia).⁵⁵

MASOCHISM Masochism is the pleasure, often sexual, from being hurt or humiliated. Sometimes masochistic acts are limited to verbal humiliation. However, masochistic behavior most often includes being bound with handcuffs or chains, and / or being beaten. Masochism is potentially physically harmful however, when a person permits another to use arm or leg restraints accompanied by acts of beating, whipping, or cutting. Masochism can also include self-infliction of pain.

SADISM Sadism is deriving sexual pleasure from the physical mistreatment or mental cruelty inflicted upon others. Some people have fantasies that are sadistic, but never act upon them. In addition, some people have sexual urges of a sadistic nature, and they find a willing partner who agrees to participate in the activity. There are those, however, who have sadistic sexual urges who force their behavior on others without their consent. Some of the activities of sexual sadism include burning, beating, stabbing, raping, sodomizing, and sometimes, even killing the partner or victim. Usually the thoughts and/or behaviors of sexual sadism begin in adolescence or early adulthood.

SALIROMAINA Satisfaction of sexual desire by soiling the clothing or other objects belonging to another person of the same or opposite sex, who serves as a sex object.

SATYRIASIS (aka: Don-Juan-ism) - See: Hypersexuality.

SCOPTOPHILIA Sexual arousal by the covert observation of other people having intercourse. Many Voyeurs (Peeping Toms) are also scoptophiliacs; the behaviors are not readily differentiated. (Often, what makes the difference between a voyeur and a scoptophiliac is what happens in the scene he is currently observing; in other words, whether he is one or the other depends on the person(s) he is observing.).

SODOMY Sodomy is actually nota paraphilia, but is often mistaken to be a paraphilia. Anal intercourse (sodomy) is an act often performed between age-appropriate heterosexual partners, and may be a part of the acts performed in other paraphilias.⁵⁶

SPLOSHING Many people confuse sploshing with mysophilia, since both involve deriving pleasure from unsanitary behaviors, but sploshing is usually much more radical and much more sensual. Mysophilia may involve licking chocolate pudding off someone’s body, while the splosher gets his rocks off by licking used tissues. (EEEyeeeeww!) ☺

STIGMATOPHILIA Sexual arousal achieved by the pain of tattooing, or by the insertion of foreign objects into the genitals (or rectum), or by body piercing (nipples, tongue, lips, or genitalia), obtaining sexual arousal and gratification by marking one’s body (tattooing) or inserting foreign objects into one’s own body.

Hurt – By Johnny Cash

I hurt myself today, to see if I still feel.

I focus on the pain – the only thing that’s real.

The needle tears a hole; the old familiar sting.

Try to kill it all away, but I remember everything.

What have I become, my sweetest friend.

Everyone I know goes away in the end.

And you could have it all – my empire of dirt.

I will let you down; I will make you hurt.

I wear this crown of thorns, upon my liar’s chair.

Full of broken thoughts I cannot repair.

Beneath the stains of time, the feelings disappear.

You are someone else; I am still right here.

If I could start again – a million miles away.

I would keep myself; I would find a way.

TELEPHONE SCATALOGIA Sexual arousal by talking (or communicating) via any remote means. This includes CB radio, Internet chat rooms, Newsgroups, or by the ubiquitous⁵⁷ 900 phone sex numbers advertised in porn magazines. Teenage (girls, particularly) are guilty of thisone – sorry, ladies; Frotteurism for the boys, Scatalogia for the ladies – you can’t say that I’ma chauvinist pig ☺.

TOMBOYISM: A girl who acts like a boy, including females who prefer (predominantly) boys as playmates, in games, etc.

TRANSSEXUALISM Taking hormones and changing one’s physical appearance (eventually by surgery), and one’s body to become the opposite sex.

TRANSVESTISM Dressing in the stereotypical clothing of the opposite sex, cross-dressing by heterosexual males is called transvestic fetishism or transvestitism. The male with this fetish usually has a collection of female clothing that he uses to cross-dress. While some males will wear only one special piece of female attire, others will fully dress as a female and use make-up, earrings, hair dyes, and perfume to achieve a completely feminine appearance. This disorder usually begins in childhood, and tends to be chronic in nature.

TROILISM Sharing a sex partner with another person, while a third party looks on. Usually done with three people, this is commonly called (in French) a menage’ a trois. In Italian, it is called Cornuto.⁵⁸

UROLAGNIA Becoming sexually aroused by fantasies about urine.

UROPHILIA Sexual arousal or gratification through urinating on a person, or being urinated upon. aka: golden shower.

VOYEURISM Observing nude (or scantily clad) people, without their knowledge or consent, aka: Peeping Tom. The behavior usually concludes with the voyeur masturbating. Voyeurism usually starts in adolescence and persists into adulthood.

ZOOPHILIA Sexual arousal / gratification via (usually) non-sexual contact with an animal (such as petting a cat). Zoophiliacs claim that the human/animal relationship goes beyond sexuality, and that they are capable of forming a loving relationship with an animal that can last several years.

ZOOSEXUALITY Human/animal sexual interaction, or simply animal sex; the term bestiality is the actual dictionary term, used especially in legal and negative contexts. Zoosexuality is often condemned as animal abuse.

TREATMENT OF SEXUAL PARAPHILIAS

By the Hick-Farmer Sigmund Freud Wannabes

A century ago, some European countries used castration as a means of treating exhibitionism,⁵⁹ pedophilia, and other paraphilias that are sexual crimes.⁶⁰ In West Germany, psychosurgery, which involved removing the nucleus ventromedialis⁶¹ of the hypothalamus, was the treatment for sex offenders. Published reports of these practices rarely provided sufficient information to determine whether this intervention was successful in eliminating the inappropriate sexual behavior.⁶² There are serious consequences to performing such extreme and permanent techniques, especially if the person is innocent.⁶³ Cognitive-behavioral therapies, such as aversion therapy, are now used to treat paraphilias. In Aversion Therapy, the arousing stimulus is paired with an aversive stimulus such as a shock or noxious odor until the behavior no longer produces sexual arousal. Relapse rates are high.⁶⁴ The behavior is repeated because of something the shrinks do not understand; or if they do understand it, they must know that if the public should learn it, it would be the end of their profession. We will get to the phenomenon of Asserted Rightness shortly.

What do quacks do when they have absolutely no clue about how to help someone? – They just pump their patients full of brain-twisting drugs – at least it seems to work – a patient cannot keep his mind on a paraphilia when he is stoned out of his freaking mind. Pharmacological interventions include hormones or other psychotropic medications. Hormones produce the pharmacological equivalent of castration. They say that SSRIs such as Prozac™ ⁶⁵ and Luvox™ ⁶⁶ are effective in reducing paraphilic arousal and may be effective in reorienting arousal to more socially acceptable scenarios.⁶⁷ SSRIs are often used to treat obsessive-compulsive disorders.⁶⁸ Sex education has been a hallmark of sex therapy since the days of Masters and Johnson.⁶⁹

Is it me, or is it just a matter of unfortunate coincidence that the start of sex education in schools during the 1960’s brought about teenage pregnancy, abortion, and STD’s out of control. Where is the cart and where is the horse in this scenario?

Now that we have a list of major categories of sexual deviance, and a brief description of the quackery that proposes to be able to cure these problems, the point I wish to make is this: I must ask the question that is begging, here. Is the treatment of each of the paraphilias different: i.e.: is the therapeutic intervention prescribed for a necrophiliac much different from the treatment for an exhibitionist?

Moreover, not to seem insensitive⁷⁰ or sarcastic, but what does psychiatry do with someone who gets his rocks off by petting a cat? Furthermore, and not-for-nothing, how is such an aberration discovered if the cat can’t tell? Is the cat offended? Does such a person turn himself in to a shrink one day, saying, Look, doc, I like to pet cats... I mean, I really dig my neighbor’s Siamese long-hair... I mean I really like to pet cats – know what I mean? Know– whaddah mean, huh? – And if they start purring, well, then I really bust a nut... Know what I mean, know-whaddah mean, huh?

With such a paraphilia, we can envision a scenario in which your friend comes over to your place one day for a party or something. He then starts petting your puddy-tat,⁷¹ and gets an erection in full view of all your other guests, whereupon you call the nice young men in the clean white coats,⁷² and they gently escort him to the local spinbin.⁷³ We could go off on a tangent here, however, allow me this brief segue’ to quote some of these Hick-Farmer Sigmund Freud Wannabes on their treatment methodology:

Question: Can you get rid of paraphilia, [or] an unwanted sexual urge in yourself?

Answer: Whether those with ‘non-aveage’ sexual fantasies and behavior will ever be ‘average’ varies. Depending on how much patients are distressed and want to work on their complaints, the treatmet can make a change. This often means that patients should learn to accept or learn how to deal with their complaints. Those with a great need to show the naked body to unsuspecting people may be helped by getting in contact with fellow-sufferers wo accept this behavior.⁷⁴ Talking about these feelings with people who recognize this can be a great relief. In many countries, there are organizations [that] can help, for example in the Netherlands The Dutch Association for Sexual Reformation (NVSH) is an association that helps with such contacts.⁷⁵ - (Brackets mine).

Fetishism: According to the DSM-IV, fetishism involves recurrent, intense sexually arousing fantasies, sexual urges, or behaviors involving the use of nonliving objects as sexual stimuli (American Psychiatric Association, 1994). Most fetishists are male and nearly one in four are homosexual. Common fetish items include shoes and lingerie and common materials include rubber and leather. Fetishists become aroused by stealing, viewing, or masturbating with the object. Most fetishists are aroused by a number of different objects.

The etiology of fetishism is not known. Two reported cases of fetishism have been associated with abnormalities in the temporal lobe. In one case, the patient had temporal lobe epilepsy and in the other the fetish behavior was linked to the development of a temporal lobe tumor.⁷⁶ Some evidence suggests that fetishism may be a learned behavior that results when a normal sexual stimulus is paired with the fetish item. Seven heterosexual males free from any prior fetish were repeatedly shown erotic stimuli paired with a slide of a black knee-length women’s boot. When the slide of the boot was later shown alone, five of the seven men demonstrated penile erection, indicating that a boot fetish had been conditioned. The conditioned fetish was shown to generalize to other types of shoes in three of the men. That is, the men also became aroused when shown a slide of a high-heeled black boot and a low-heeled black shoe. They did not become aroused to a slide of a short brown boot, a brown string sandal, or a golden sandal, suggesting that the fetish only generalized to similar types of shoes.⁷⁷ A similar study was conducted in women to determine whether women could also be conditioned to become sexually aroused to a stimulus. Subjects were randomly assigned to repeatedly view an erotic film paired with a light stimulus versus an erotic film alone. No significant differences where found in physiological sexual arousal between the experimental and control groups when a light stimulus was later presented alone.⁷⁸ Meston and Rachman (1994) tried to condition sexual arousal to the sound of a male’s voice. Even after repeated pairings of erotic video clips and the male’s voice, later presentation of the male’s voice alone did not produce sexual arousal. This suggests that sexual arousal is not readily classically conditioned in women and may explain why, like other paraphilias, fetishism occurs almost exclusively in men.

According to the DSM-IV, in order to be diagnosed with a paraphilia, one must demonstrate the following features: "Recurrent, intense sexually arousing fantasies, sexual urges, or behaviors generally involving 1) nonhuman objects, 2) the suffering or humiliation of oneself or one’s partner, or 3) children or other nonconsenting persons, that occur over a period of at least six months". The behavior, sexual urges, or fantasies cause clinically significant distress or impairment in social, occupational, or other important areas of functioning. The DSM-IV lists eight types of paraphilic disorders but in practice, individuals displaying one paraphilia very often also exhibit other paraphilic behaviors. Incarcerated pedophiles often report, for example, that they have also engaged in other paraphilic behaviors (e.g., exhibitionism, voyeurism) and that deviant sexual behaviors other than pedophilia are their primary interest. The presence of paraphilic behavior may represent an underlying sexual impulsivity disorder that is characterized by sexual compulsivity and hypersexuality, and in some cases, aggression.⁷⁹

If psychology’s therapeutic approach to each of these behaviors is different, then considering that the American Psychiatric Association is highly organized, I would very much like to see a codification⁸⁰ of the methodology, let’s say (to pick one at random) to treat klismaphilia.

Let’s see... do we use Aversion Pairing Therapy Reality Therapy, Direct Therapeutic Exposure, Logotherapy, Behavior Modification, Electro-Convulsive Therapy, Cognitive Therapy, or its cousin Associative Cognitive Therapy?⁸¹ – You might as well take your pick – or give yourself a high colonic,⁸² since none of them actually work.

However, the dime-store ice pick through the eye socket⁸³ up into the brainpan⁸⁴ always seems to work. Ice picks thrust into the Analyzer⁸⁵ and thrashed about the nucleus ventromedialis (or whatever you wish to call it), is an effective cure for paraphilias, or anya berrant behavior for that matter. Psychology has an unwritten axiom: Spare the ice pick and spoil the pervert.

One can easily see why psychiatrists hang up⁸⁶ in vastly disproportionate numbers, far above the average of any other profession.⁸⁷ Perhaps it is poetic justice for all of the harm they’ve caused – albeit some of them, quite unwittingly.

And don’t let those fancy Ph.Ds fool you or impress you – five hundred Ph.D.s were awarded on as many scholarly dissertations on the Piltdown Man fossil, which turned out to be a fraud,⁸⁸ and numerous Nobel Peace Prizes have been awarded to terrorists (such as Yassir Arafat),⁸⁹ and other genocidal maniacs. If we seek a solution, we need to cease being fooled or impressed by Ivory Tower sheepskins, and actually do what has proven itself to work in the real world. Psychology errs in this area, primarily because it is overly concerned with categorizing behaviors (giving names to every variant of an aberration), and then attempting the micro-management of every aspect of a person’s life. This is evident in the tendency to label every single behavior, and the inability to define the term normal.

A Man is only as sane as he is self-determined. Take away a person’s ability to control his or her own life, and to the degree you do this, the person will become hostile and anti-social – bordering on insanity. Compulsion and creating classic penalty situations creates a passive-aggressive personality, and if continued for considerable time, it creates criminals out of potential saints. This is why psychology-based rehabilitation programs in prisons are like pissing up a rope. Prisons and prison-based rehab programs (with a few notable exceptions) are, in fact, criminalogenic.⁹⁰

The psychiatric nosology⁹¹ is not one of healing; it is not an attempt to restore a person’s self-determinism, but instead, lacking the technology to efficably heal, psychiatry resorts to an underlying philosophy of physical control. The means by which this is accomplished, is via psychotropic drugs, electro-convulsive shock, or brain surgery⁹² of one sort or another. All of it is pure, unadulterated quackery, if not outright criminal.

The therapeutic methodology of psychiatry incorporates a combination of attempted deprivation of postulated⁹³ triggers or precipitating conditions (avoid cats and night-vision binoculars for zoophiliacs and scoptophiliacs, respectively), and the use of dangerous, mood-altering, mind-bending psychoactive drugs.

If drugs fail to work, then Vee haff vays⁹⁴ not far-removed from the methodology of Joseph Mengele⁹⁵ of Nazi infamy. If you think I jest, all of this has been meticulously and reliably documented.⁹⁶ You can search the Internet to your heart’s desire – and invariably what you’ll find is a bunch of self-styled quacks posting their Curriculum Vitae’,⁹⁷ their research, and reporting the results as either ineffective or inconclusive. Invariably, the conditions they are attempting to treat are said to be intractable. Then they have the chutzpah⁹⁸ to petition the government for more money to come up with still more hair-brained treatment protocols and methodologies that can’t work because the conditions are chronic or intractable by their own admission. Better it would be, I should think, if the money that is mindlessly squandered on this quackery were used to treat poverty and hunger around the world.

The psychiatric technology consists of calling a person by the name assigned to his unusual behavior, and then having the person go over the incident over and over, all the while, interjecting false data into the patient’s narrative. This false data is, most of the time, the therapist’s own opinion, and is called by the clinical terminology hypothesized cues. Psychiatry sees nothing wrong with this. Believing that he / she has a disorder, a patient will begin to assume the valence⁹⁹ of a person with the characteristics of the diagnosed disorder, possibly as part of an Ally Computation¹⁰⁰ for the therapist. This quickly becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy:

That thing of which a person is afraid, she will bring into actuality and existence... [She] starts creating a situation of which she can be afraid because she has to be right... If you validate an illusion, that illusion will take concrete form - that is to say, physical-energy form.¹⁰¹

The introduction of false data prevents the patient from confronting objective, empirical reality, and the case does not resolve. The fact that the person now wears the official DSM stigmata of an official diagnosis and/or legal conviction, is a major factor that actively prevents both the offender and the victim from coming to terms with what happened, and moving on with their lives. A Scientologist would call this holding a person in valence. Using hypothesized cues is expressly forbidden by the Scientology code of ethics. While the courts and thrones of men are unlikely to offer forgiveness, healing, and restoration, we know that:

If we confess our sins, He [God] is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, an to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. –1 John 1:9 (KJV).

Confess your fault to one another, and pray for one another, that ye may be healed.

–James 5:16a (KJV).

Confession of one’s sexual paraphilias is a particularly difficult thing to do, even to a spouse or significant other, never mind to a shrink, and it is tantamount to impossible in a group therapy setting, where the word confidential is a bad joke – and in prison? – That’s suicidal – Forget it!

I’ve facilitated¹⁰² a few therapy groups, and I’ve heard such marvelously and painstakingly concocted
