Eroticized Rage and Other Sexualized Feelings: Courtship, Compulsion and Cybersex
Each of us has an "arousal template" that governs our sexual attraction and relationships. Developmental problems, trauma and abuse, family messages, and life experiences can significantly damage that template. Key to understanding how that template works is eroticized feelings such as anger, fear, and shame. By focusing only on behavior and cognitive distortions, therapists will miss key factors in courtship and sexual compulsion. No place is that better illustrated than in cybersex addiction, which is sometimes call the crack-cocaine of sex addiction.
