"this model as follows: The ""psychohydraulic model of sexuality"" has been formulated most definitely in psychoanalysis: After a certain time, the same process begins anew. Such an approach assumes sexual arousal to be a spontaneous desire that appears periodically like sensations of hunger and thirst. Drawing a parallel between these sensations and sexual excitation is widely accepted now: ""Everyone must experience sexuality in some way to survive. ... In this sense sex is a necessity of life, just as air, food, and warmth."" And yet there is no empirical evidence in support of such a parallel, Imieliński says. Sensations of"

Erotophilia Erotophilia is a personality trait which assesses an individual's disposition to respond to sexual cues in either a positive or negative manner. It is measured on a continuous scale, ranging from ""erotophobia"" to ""erotophilia"". Erotophobes tend to score higher on authoritarianism and need for achievement, have more traditional sex roles, experience more sex guilt and have more negative reactions to masturbation and homosexuality than erotophiles.

"Salirophilia Salirophilia is a sexual fetish or paraphilia that involves deriving erotic pleasure from soiling or disheveling the object of one's desire, usually an attractive person. It may involve tearing or damaging their clothing, covering them in mud or filth, or messing their hair or makeup. The fetish does not involve harming or injuring the subject, only their appearance. It is related to wet and messy fetishism, bukkake (ejaculating semen on someone), cum shot, gokkun (drinking semen of someone), facial, omorashi (preventing urination), mysophilia (ex. fetishism of used underwear), urolagnia (urinating on someone),and coprophilia, etc. Salirophilia also extends to other"

When sexual arousal is achieved by or dependent on the use of objects, it is referred to as sexual fetishism, or in some instances a paraphilia. There is a common belief that women need more time to achieve arousal. However, recent scientific research has shown that there is no considerable difference for the time men and women require to become fully aroused.

"Pyrophilia Pyrophilia is a relatively uncommon paraphilia in which a subject derives gratification from fire and fire-starting activity. It is distinguished from pyromania by the gratification being of a sexual nature. While the erotic focus immediately raises the diagnostic issue of pyromania, the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders IV classifies this disorder as an impulse-control disorder, with nothing to indicate or suggest an overlap between this disorder and the paraphilias. Other than the purposeful act of fire-setting itself, there is no mention of the possibility that the tension or affective arousal experienced before the act; the fascination with,"

The term ""klismaphilia"" was coined in 1973 by Dr. Joanne Denko, an early investigator in this field, to describe the activities of some of her patients, whom she referred to as ""klismaphiliacs"". The term ""klismaphile"" is also in use for describing a person with klismaphilia, and is considered synonymous with klismaphiliac. Klismaphiles can gain satisfaction of enemas through fantasies, by actually receiving or giving one, or through the process of eliminating steps to"

The term is derived from the Greek word ὑβρίζειν ""hubrizein"", meaning ""to commit an outrage against someone"" (ultimately derived from ὕβρις ""hubris"" ""hubris""), and ""philo"", meaning ""having a strong affinity/preference for"".

Some emetophiles practice the fetish by having their partner vomit from performing deep-throat oral sex. The penis pushed deep into the fellators throat can trigger their gag reflex and eventually make them vomit. This is becoming an increasingly popular trend in internet pornography for its shock effect and as a form of erotic humiliation or degradation.

"Erotic asphyxiation Erotic asphyxiation (variously called asphyxiophilia, hypoxyphilia or breath control play) is the intentional restriction of oxygen to the brain for the purposes of sexual arousal. The term autoerotic asphyxiation is used when the act is done by a person to him- or herself. Colloquially, a person engaging in the activity is sometimes called a ""gasper"". The erotic interest in asphyxiation is classified as a paraphilia in the ""Diagnostic and Statistical Manual"" of the American Psychiatric Association. Author John Curra wrote, ""The carotid arteries (on either side of the neck) carry oxygen-rich blood from the heart to the brain."

Usually arousal takes place while watching, touching, caressing, nibbling, licking or gentle beating partner's earlobe. Love can be expressed throughout varied ways, but scientists find that it can be simplified into three elements – desire, attractiveness and affection. Now, researchers want to identify parts of the brain responsible of our experiences perception. Earlobes are rich in neurons and thus for certain people are an erogenous zone.

As an expression of sexuality, it refers to sexual pleasure derived from looking at erotic objects: erotic photographs, pornography, naked bodies, etc. The term was introduced to translate Freud's , or pleasure in looking. Freud considered pleasure in looking to be a regular partial instinct in childhood, which might be sublimated into interest in art, or alternatively become fixated into what the Rat Man called ""a burning and tormenting curiosity to see the female body"".

It is a counterpart to ""apotemnophilia"", the sexual interest in ""being"" an amputee. Acrotomophiles may be attracted to amputees because they like the way they look or they may view the amputee’s stump as a phallic object which can be used for sexual pleasure.

It carries the theme where a person (often a Top in a BDSM relationship) induces another (the bottom) to cry, or otherwise show a strong emotion. Dacryphilia may be a form of humiliation in the 'pain/restriction/servitude/humiliation' spectrum of BDSM; for example, a dominant may verbally abuse the submissive in order to elicit a tearful response.

"Sexual arousal Sexual arousal (also sexual excitement) is the arousal of sexual desire, during or in anticipation of sexual activity. A number of physiological responses occur in the body and mind as preparation for sexual intercourse and continue during it.
