Genophobia

[Twilight_Roxas]

When I notice Genophobia I was suspecting the fear of the puppet Geno but I guess wrong.

Ignoring the orignial posters request and the restatement of that quest by budthedog, I will make comments even though I do not have Genophobia.

I personally believe an anonymous poll would be a better way to ask this question as it would give you a rough Idea of the proportion of people affected with this affectation.

It seems that at least some of the individuals who are genophobic are vocal in their commentary whenever an image that is blatantly sexual is posted. Similarly it seems that when a piece of process containing other lesser followed fetishes (guro, vore, etc.) the general community is up in outrage.

Your assumption is that if someone is Genophobic that they are afraid of posting or even viewing sexual material. What I meant is that if someone is Genophobic wouldn't they be too afraid to post in this thread?


P.S.

If you can't find enough sexual images in the fetish sections most of the threads in this section contain some kind of sex:

I find that much of the material here on this site is in fact relatively non-sexual in nature, merely erotic or titillating, not legitimate acts of intercourse. I was curious to know if this is because of a prevalent condition of genophobia among members. I am aware that this doesn't necessarily apply to everyone on this board, and please restrain yourself from posting if you do not feel this applies to you.

Basically, Are you afraid of sex? Does the thought of you having actual intercourse uproot a feeling of general anxiety?

It is for anybody who's not ready and they know they're not.

While I'm sure such a poll would generate more responses, they wouldn't be verifiable in any way. I'm sure tons of people would vote just for the heck of it.

At the other people: people who visit the general section are already perfectly capable of expressing their feelings about sex. They're quite vocal. The people who are afraid of being on this site (for whatever reason, more likely underage than any actual sex hangups) don't actually post here in the general section.

At Sweeney Todd: genophobia has nothing to do with whether a person is genuinely ready to have sex or not. It is an aversion to sex usually generated from consistent and pervasive negative imagery or attitudes towards sex or sexual abuse as a child. My hypothesis here is that at least some of the people here are circumventing an ingrained aversion to sexuality through paraphilias that allow them to express themselves sexually and gain sexual release in the absence of the disturbing imagery of actual sex acts.

This isn't a bad thing. No, It's something you can't really decide to have, like natural hair color. You can get past this, given a supportive partner and therapy and whatnot.

I am going to have to say a resounding maybe. I do know that I don't like explicit porn. I'm not experienced enough to know for certain about the real thing. This may in itself be telling...

Maybe they all saw that movie "Teeth" and are now scared of vaginas.

That was a wonderful movie. I loved the omnipresent nuclear cooling towers.

I think they were there to say "zomg radiation mutates pussies!" or something..

The user posts? Yes.
The actual listed material? NO.

Honestly, though, I believe I could subscribe to this. However, it's not a fear so much as disintrest and, in particularly over-exagerated works, disgust.
