For people who are desperate and searching, sexuality on the Internet offers an incredible release.
Volkmar Sigusch
Image
I will always be referred to as a theorist, but I was only a fellow traveller with a degree.

Image
Good sex can be anything, including dirty.

Image
While the Internet generally tends to have a stress-relieving function for adults - as long as they aren't inclined toward sex addiction - I don't see this being the case for adolescents.
Volkmar Sigusch
Image
Sexuality is pushed back more and more and people try to replace what they've lost with other forms of excitement.

Image
Just go to an auto show, and you'll see all the signs of sexual arousal in the men: shiny eyes, tremors, sex flush. An acute example of the need for professional sex research.

You're married to a woman who has no objection to another woman joining the couple. Then she brings in her boyfriend. Suddenly you realize - my God! - you can love more than one person. In fact, you can love several people at the same time.

Image
I'm reminded of a female patient who was particularly aroused by the shape of her husband's shoulder. And this hint of perversion should ideally remain a secret for both partners.

The social problem is that we haven't come up with any alternative models. Our culture hasn't developed an ars erotica. Think, for example, of conditions in India or in Japanese culture and of how the erotic has been cultivated there. They're not as clinical and rabbit-like as we are.

I have the utmost respect for people who are asexual. I didn't believe that they existed at first. But they do exist, and their numbers are growing.
Volkmar Sigusch
Image
Fantasies have to remain dirty. Cleanliness, scrupulousness and rationality are poison for eroticism.

Image
Exaggerated portrayals apparently destroy desire more effectively than any repression.
Volkmar Sigusch
Image
I maintain that we are still a largely ignorant society when it comes to sex. We speak incorrectly and superficially about sexuality. And when you talk about it too much, you run the risk of destroying its mystery.

The sexual revolution of the 1960s was mostly a movement of young people. I felt that the so-called free relationships were overrated.

Image
There are young men who want thrills but no longer value sex, so they do completely different things, including aggressive things.
Volkmar Sigusch
Image
Most young people seem to be behaving very intelligently: They look at things once in a while, but then they find it so idiotic and uncool that they just look away again. That is, provided they're not growing up in a family in which a drunk father is already watching pornos in the morning.

Sexual desire declines after four to seven years. That's been proven.Because it's the most compatible with our spiritual origins. Father, mother, small family - that's the way we've developed our souls, the way we've become, and the way we feel safe, protected and loved.

Image
The things that could be derived from the sexual sphere - happiness, endless fun and the end of capitalism - were grossly overestimated. The symbolic overglorification was downright unbearable.
Volkmar Sigusch
Image
It's important for a couple to talk about their sexual preferences. On the other hand, the aura of the mysterious should be preserved.
Volkmar Sigusch
Image
Key feature of sexual revolution is the large-scale publication and commercialization of details that were once secret. Sexuality has been trivialized. The interesting thing about this is that exaggerated portrayals apparently destroy desire more effectively than any repression.
