Talk:Autoeroticism

message: Would narcissism be considered a form of autoeroticism? Perhaps it's a stretch, but it seems to fit... Of course, I would have to add the explicit clarification that narcissism would be a sub group of the various types of autoeroticisms.--BlackGriffen
:I don't know if it's a form of autoeroticism, but it's certainly related. Maybe a mention and a link. --Dmerrill
You're thinking of autophilia.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:C7D:1FC6:1A00:F48B:B160:CE4C:D3E2 (talk) 16:20, 11 July 2016 (UTC)

message: * Don't Merge: Autoeroticism and autosexuality are entirely different things.  Autoeroticism can occurs in a homo-, hetero-, bisexual orientation, etc.  Autosexuality is usually (but not always) a orientation parallel to those aforementioned. --Zippanova 19:29, 29 July 2005 (UTC)
thread_title: Merger

message: Hi folks. I have undone this old merge, which seems to have been carried out without consensus.
Autoeroticism is stimulating yourself sexually. Almost everyone does this, and almost none of the people who do it are subject to the unusual paraphilia of autosexuality, which means being attracted to yourself sexually. Your average teenage boy thinks about a girl, feels attracted to her, and then beats off. He doesn't say "Oh my dear right hand, I love you so!" except in dirty jokes!

thread_title: Undoing this consensus-free merge

message: Late last month somebody put up another merge template thing, though did not mention it here. Well...
* Don't merge: They are different things. It would be like merging fruit and apple.
This doesn't appear very active though, and considering it's been debated before, I don't think anybody should be merging this. Cheers, Rothery 08:57, 2 May 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Merge status as of May 2007

message: Intro, para 4, line 3: The potential for injury or even death that exists while engaging in the partnered versions of these fetishes (the erotic asphyxiation and bondage, respectively) becomes drastically increased due to the isolation and lack of assistance...." How does having a partner increase risk of "injury or even death"?  From all that I have read, quite the opposite is true: a partner will prevent injury if the play goes beyond the bounds of safety, and will prevent death if the play is injury. The linked ref (}does not point to anything specific so I cannot argue against it just on language. 71.234.215.133 (talk) 13:14, 22 August 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Not quite a double negative 

message: Look at the end of the roman catholic church deal. After explaining that the Catholic Church believes masturbation to be immoral, it suddenly cuts to saying that women can masturbate using different means, and then the paragraph ends abruptly. Delete?
