Since ancient times, society has been aware of the existence of all kinds of sexual disorders that are present in people with mental disorders. These include exhibitionism and voyeurism. These symptoms are polar opposite. If an exhibitionist seeks to demonstrate his own body to others, then the voyeur is extremely necessary to spy on someone naked.
In many countries they can be held accountable for such behavior, for example, accused of petty hooliganism. This is absolutely justified, because no one wants to be watched in the shower, restroom, locker room or even during intimacy. A person who peeps is not always a voyeur, but about everything in order.
Description
Voyeur is a person who has an irresistible desire to constantly spy on naked people. As a rule, the voyeur is ashamed of what he is doing, and tries to stay away from prying eyes, unnoticed. People with such a disorder get tremendous pleasure from peeping at sex, changing clothes, etc. Only in this way they achieve sexual arousal and are able to get discharge.
This behavior is common to some men and adolescents who have experience spying on girls. However, to consider them voyeurs is wrong. The diagnosis is made only when such a method of obtaining discharge becomes the preferred type of sexual activity. Voyeur, spying on the girls, can wait hours for his "victim". Very rarely there are women with a similar diagnosis.
Symptoms
Voyeur - this is the one who takes possession of the mania of spying on the intimate, as a rule, sexual actions of strangers. They are tormented by obsessive thoughts that make them regularly look for a new object for observation in order to enjoy the highest degree. Voyeurs are urgently required to look at naked people in an intimate setting. They spend a lot of time watching pornographic films, and also read relevant literature, communicate in all kinds of video chats. Voyeurism is often accompanied by high anxiety, an obsessive guilt. This can provoke inappropriate behavior, for example, a tendency to masochism.
Causes of the disease
Voyeur is a person who has mental health problems. The development of the disease can trigger three main factors:
- Serious psychological trauma that was inflicted in childhood. Often, voyeurs are people who have lost contact with their mother aged 0 to 2 years.
- Congenital hypercatexis of visual function.
- Postnatal experiences, for example, if the mother died during childbirth or left the baby in the hospital.
- Bad sexual experience. As a rule, this is some kind of stress after the first contact with the genitals of a partner of the opposite sex.
- Excellent visual imagination.
Are such people dangerous?
As we already know, a voyeur is a person who has an irresistible desire to regularly spy on naked people. Previously, voyeurs suffering from a mild stage of the disease did not represent any danger, but it was almost impossible to find out what was being spied on. However, the use of modern technologies makes them extremely dangerous. At the moment, you can purchase various equipment for video surveillance and install it in any place of interest. To do this, you don’t even need to connect a lot of wires and configure complex equipment, everything is done quite simply, and the image is transmitted to the computer in the form of radio waves, which are converted into a video signal.
Voyeur can not only establish remote peeping for girls through a hidden camera, but also save any video you like. But worst of all, if such videos appear on the Internet, and your friends or relatives accidentally stumble upon them.
In addition to visual contact, there is a great danger that the voyeur will be hungry for intimacy and will attack the object of his observation. According to official statistics provided by human rights defenders, every third sexual maniac suffered from this disease, which developed to a moderate and severe form.
The most famous voyeur
There are quite a lot of people suffering from this ailment. But the most famous, perhaps, is Giacomo Casanova, who lived in the XVIII century. In his memoirs, he described his own experience of sex peeping. He told in colors about a certain nun who was his lover. About how she spied on how she entered into intimacy with a French diplomat.
After the publication of the memoirs, most people were indignant and did not understand how Casanova could behave this way. However, the aristocrats were not at all surprised at the man’s act, because they regularly arranged orgies that had an extremely perverse form.
