Science of Sex #5: “Sexual desire and sexual activities of women with psychosis.”
Are psychotic girls “hot” ? Follow @sex-info if you like Sex and Sciences !
Hi everybody ! Here are some news from the scientific literature devoted to the science of sexuality.
Psychosis is an abnormal condition of the mind that involves a "loss of contact with reality". People experiencing psychosis may exhibit personality changes and thought disorder.
In fictions psychotic girls are often shown being "hot" and extroverted. But is it really the case? Swiss researchers have asked the question and have studied the subject in this article published in 2015 in the Community mental health journal.
Here is a part of their results: “women with psychosis featured more sexual alterations, with a lesser sexual-esteem (impaired sexual self-esteem for 65 % of women with psychosis vs. 29 % of healthy control); lesser sexual-motivation (impaired sexual motivation: 59 vs. 19 %); greater sexual-anxiety (pathological sexual-anxiety for 18 vs. 0 %); greater sexual-depression, defined as the experience of feelings of sadness, unhappiness, and depression regarding one’s sex life (pathological sexual-depression for 12 vs. 0 %)”
Finally it seems logical that people with a serious mental pathology have a less enjoyable sex life than the rest of the population. The image of the girl "crazy but warm" is a cliché that hurts patients with psychosis. They are not fantasies but sick women.

lol, I think it is about balance, a bit of crazy can turn me on, but too much crazy and I will run away. It also depends how much physical attraction I have. ;)
Hahaha but there is a difference between an "extrovert" girl and a real psychotic girl... And in films there is a trend to show us psychotic girls as "hot chicks"...
yes, them tricky movie makers want to make us believe that all psycho girls are hot haha
Maybe because many of them are on antipsychotics, more aptly called neuroleptics because they "lyse" the brain. Or more aptly called major tranquilizers because they shut your body down. You can imagine what these do to a person. Make them sleep 16 hours per day, make them gain huge amounts of weight by wrecking the metabolism, shut down the thinking, and destroy the libido. Not fun.
agreed like eating and the bathroom and the desire
and it is there for several reasons and love that bad guy hero movie
