Quote from: Barbijuana on May 29, 2013, 06:24 pmI'm not sure where I read it. It might of been here or some other dim lit corner of the darknet. It was some anonymous confessions of a serial rapist. What I found so intriguingly sick, yet captivating and enthralling was that he had done a self analysis upon his actions and seemed fairly competent in doing such. Besides the whole concept of rape and the abuse of another human being, his general thought process, while extremely sick, didn't seem very far off kilter. I just spent the last 10 minutes typing up a long synopsis of what I remember reading, but it kind of made me disturbed and slightly afraid I may end up agreeing with some of the points. In order to cease that mentality or at least curtail its inevitable fruition, I've decided to delete it all. I could just delete this whole shit post, but then how will I ever become a Hero Member.On the other note, does anyone else find themselves glued to reading that kind of shit? Not in a way where you discover a new spectrum of thinking, but as a nose dive into another human beings psyche. For me, the more disturbing and "holy shit" the better. Curiosity... or solace :-\It has a certain degree of satisfaction to reading you're not the most messed up one out there. It is like those people who have weird pleasures. My ex-girlfriend was one for example, if she seen somebody with any type of pimple, she just wants to pop the thing and you can see her almost drooling when she seen somebody with a huge pimple, it was weird.I think the nose dive into another realm of the psyche opens your mind, we are too narrow in our thinking, even for those who consider themselves pretty open. For example, I often say picture yourself in the shoes of a paedophile, and they'll say something such as "Oh I'd just shoot myself". No they wouldn't. Paedophilia is horrific in my point of view, I'm sure most people will agree with me on that, but how is it different to homosexuality, or bestiality for the matter, or even necrophilia? How far is one willing to go into the realms of how unusual the human psyche can go.What I do find interesting however is the unusual occurrence of single "dysfunctions". For example, a paedophile often has multiple types of socially unacceptable or illegal material on their computer, necrophiliacs also are social recluses according to a news story I read a while ago, they never seem to be "just x", there seems to be a deeper issue at hand with multiple distortions of what we perceive as normal behaviour. Whether this is a causal link or coincidence I don't know, just as how we can't really establish does the first cause the second or are they somehow complementary in forming the overall distortion of "normal" behaviour.
