It's important for a couple to talk about their sexual preferences. On the other hand, the aura of the mysterious should be preserved.

More quotes by Volkmar Sigusch
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
Some 95 percent of all sexual contact still occurs in permanent relationships. That's an impressive number.
Volkmar Sigusch
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.
Volkmar Sigusch
There will be other forms in addition to our classic marriage. One is already looming on the horizon: polyamory, or having more than one intimate partner.
Volkmar Sigusch
Sexual desire declines after four to seven years. That's been proven.
Volkmar Sigusch
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.
Volkmar Sigusch
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.

I will always be referred to as a theorist, but I was only a fellow traveller with a degree.
Volkmar Sigusch
Most pornographic images are simply too repulsive.

Exaggerated portrayals apparently destroy desire more effectively than any repression.

It's very important to approach pedophiles and pedosexuals and offer them therapy. It's been my experience that you can reach your objective with what I would call kind-hearted, informed and enlightened patients - in the sense that they don't lose their desire, but that they no longer have physical contact with children. That would be the goal.
Volkmar Sigusch
The sexual revolution of the 1960s was mostly a movement of young people. I felt that the so-called free relationships were overrated.
Volkmar Sigusch
There are pedosexuals who, even if the court forces them to go into treatment, do not pursue it or cannot pursue it.
Volkmar Sigusch
Aura of the mysterious is a minor perversion that a couple shares. A fetish that one of the two partners finds arousing, or a particular sexual scenario. Fantasies have to remain dirty. Cleanliness, scrupulousness and rationality are poison for eroticism.
Volkmar Sigusch
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.
Volkmar Sigusch
There are young men who want thrills but no longer value sex, so they do completely different things, including aggressive things.

Fantasies have to remain dirty. Cleanliness, scrupulousness and rationality are poison for eroticism.

Perhaps the couple got married at 25 and now they're 45 and this is an option. And if a couple is still together, or perhaps finds its way back together, I like to say that it's forever. They belong together, it's a good fit, it's the right pairing. It almost gives me goose bumps.
Volkmar Sigusch
The sexual revolution produced cultural convulsions that were unparalleled in the 20th century.
Volkmar Sigusch
Good sex can be anything, including dirty.
