More quotes by 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
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
Some 95 percent of all sexual contact still occurs in permanent relationships. That's an impressive number.
Volkmar Sigusch
There are many options in a marriage. If the couple has been together for a certain amount of time and has a certain amount of liberalism or life experience, it could be the kind of relationship in which one partner ventures into the occasional affair, which is then forgiven. This only happens every 13 years on average, but it obviously does occur.

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.

When it comes to sexuality, people like to tell lies. It's only when it comes to money that they lie more.

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

Most pornographic images are simply too repulsive.
Volkmar Sigusch
Exaggerated portrayals apparently destroy desire more effectively than any repression.
Volkmar Sigusch
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
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
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
Sexual desire declines after four to seven years. That's been proven.
Volkmar Sigusch
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
Internet sexuality shows that we're becoming more and more self-involved. I'm talking about self-sex.
Volkmar Sigusch
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.
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
There are young men who want thrills but no longer value sex, so they do completely different things, including aggressive things.
Volkmar Sigusch
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.

There are pedosexuals who, even if the court forces them to go into treatment, do not pursue it or cannot pursue it.
