This is a totally unusual activity, which consists of practicing sexual intercourse with a corpse of a human being or an animal, an act that turns out to be totally illegal in all countries of the world. Most necrophiles practice this activity to satisfy their sexual needs.
It turns out to be a totally penalized act at the level of all current societies in the world, since the people who died may not have given their consent for such acts to be performed on their bodies after death, due to this it is considered as a lack of serious respect, and that in turn has its legal consequences.
Necrophilia is not a behavior that is only found in some human minds, there have also been cases in which animals have copulated with other dead animals.
What really is necrophilia?
Necrophilia is a totally psychological state, to which it is evident that traits and characteristics of a disease can be rooted, due to the unusual acts that are practiced in it.
It is a kind of paraphilia in which sexual attraction is strongly related to corpses both animals (in which zoophilia is related), and human beings. The word comes from two Greek terms that are "nekros" which means dead or corpse, and "filia" which translates as attraction or love.
Paraphilias are patterns of psychological behavior in which the individual's points of sexual attraction are strongly related to objects, animals, plants, among other things.
Even if the two Greek terms are specifically translated, it could be said that necrophilia is an attraction towards death and all its aspects, not only in the sexual sphere, but in all kinds of relationships that it could have, being its strongest desire.
According to several studies that have been carried out on individuals suffering from this sexual disorder, it has been determined that it arises in a certain time at any age, lasting approximately 6 months, in which the person undergoes totally negative social changes that they affect your life for the rest of your life.
Features
Paraphilias can end up damaging the individual totally since they imply that they only feel sexual desires through objects or living beings that are related to the disorder.
Between normality and disorders there is a line that could be said not to be very thick, since various behaviors of the same can be seen in anyone, but there comes a point where it can become a disorder, for example: a person he likes and is excited by video sex conferences, in which two individuals who are in different places have virtual sex, but if one of the people only got sexually excited by this activity, he would already be taking himself as a paraphilia.
Among the most common characteristics that can be observed in people who suffer from these disorders such as necrophilia are the following.
- People with these types of disorders suffer from totally unusual behaviors such as strange sexual desires, pain or fantasies with things out of the ordinary.
- There are drugs and psychotherapies capable of stabilizing and calming the sexual desires of people who suffer from these disorders, which you should go to before committing an act that affects you legally.
- All types of paraphilia, including necrophilia, are disorders that affect the person for a period of six months, so their duration should be monitored to determine what their actions are due to.
- In all the existing paraphilias, individuals have sexual relations in completely strange situations and with unusual sexual partners such as objects, animals, plants, corpses, among others, which can also be noticed if they have fantasies with any of the aforementioned.
Society and necrophilia
On the part of all societies and cultures worldwide, a resounding rejection of the practitioners of necrophilia can be noted.
Necrophiles can feel apathy and even resentment against all the people around them, coming to focus their activities on acts involved with the sexual desires towards the dead.
In history there have been cases so gruesome and horrifying that they seem to be taken from fictional movies, such as even doctors who have desecrated the graves of their patients in order to have sex with their corpses without their consent.
In some cases it can be observed that the person has established a normal life with another person, but when he dies he wants to continue copulating with him, so it would already be becoming this strange disorder. Although there are also people who have declined in such a profound way that they have been able to have sex with more than 100 corpses throughout their lives, which has totally serious consequences not only on a social level, but also on a legal level. that no country accepts these behaviors as normal.
The laws regarding this condition
As has been observed throughout the article, necrophilia causes great social rejection, as legal and this is because the people who practice this activity, normally commit a series of serious crimes.
There are infinities of charges that can be associated with a necrophiliac person such as desecration of graves, rape of people, because they may not have given their consent for such acts, murder, since cases have been seen in which individuals murder and they even mutilate people while they are practicing sex, and kidnapping, since they are practically stealing the bodies of the deceased.
Treatment for necrophilia
This disorder is treated like most disorders, through psychiatric therapies that can become individual or group in which the person shares experiences with other individuals accepting their condition and seeking to improve among all.
Added to this is treatment with really strong drugs, which calm people's concerns and sexual desires towards corpses, which could in turn save you from committing horrible crimes like those seen in the history of necrophilia.
As one of the most chilling cases that was of Dr. Carl Tanzler who became obsessed with one of his patients who died in 1931 at the age of 21, who with the consent of his parents had a mausoleum built so that his body would not decompose, which he visited every night, until he kidnapped him and took him home, where he had even bought a complete wardrobe of clothes to dress her in different ways.
Necrophilia has long been a topic of social debate, seen even in the most well-known places in society, from doctors to actors to musicians.
In the history of mankind it has been seen how this activity is practiced even by Egyptian deities who in their stories say that some gods had sexual relations with the corpses of others in order to give birth to new entities.
Even in several musical themes, an attempt has been made to raise awareness regarding this mental disorder, although in most genres that can be observed it is in branches of rock, metal and the like.
