The Anime Reality

I guess I should start by letting everybody know that Guro turns me on. I’ve been into it since I first saw it about two years ago, but outside of sexuality, I am a perfectly normal human being. Yes, HUMAN BEING.

Anyways, I was looking online for some guro when I found this little gem of a discussion. Now, I wanted to respond directly to the thread and not freshly throw myself out like I am now, but it was closed:

Actually the question is very simple and direct. How can a human be turned on by guro? It’s just that simple. I mean turned on in a sexual way. It does not matter if you are just looking at it or performing the act. How can anyone with an once of moral or even respect for life and others be turned on by such acts or pictures. I guess I was raised in a different world. I can not fathom the idea of a HUMAN being aroused by such acts or pictures. I can not even conceive calling such a person a human if they indeed can get aroused by such acts or pictures. To me, guro goes beyond a fetish and borders on a disorder. Also for the record, guro is a stand alone genre it is not really a subgenre of hentai. At least that is how I see it. Lolicon, scat, BDSM and water sports are all fetishes and even people who like pain and torture could be fetishes. But guro goes beyond pain and most always results in the death of the character it is being performed on. I mean seriously. Roasted woman, drowning women, women impaled on sticks, women with open skulls getting screwed in the brain, or even screwed in the eye socket which by the way is a physical impossibility unless your are a very small man. How can any of these things arouse a human of normal mind set. What is normal you ask? Well thats a good question. Normal would be the average Joe who fits and the box and conforms to society. I know most of us like to hide behind our monitors and act all rebellious and in a rage against morals and conformity, but when it comes down to it and we all leave our computers to goto work or school we are in fact just like all the other conforming cookie cutter people we pass daily. This is the normal person I speak of.

I just pose a simple question. Can anyone here honestly say they would be aroused watching a friend or loved one or even a total stranger being torn apart and having strangers walk up and screw the opening left in the body from various parts being removed? That is what guro is and that is what I can not fathom being aroused by. The thought of even sticking my manhood in an opening other then a living mouth, vagina, or back door makes me sick and most certainly prevents me from getting aroused to even perform such an act.

So the fact I am not aroused by this kind of stuff, does that make me abnormal since everyone seems to thinks its just a fetish and normal to be aroused by a fetish.

I am not talking about be made happy or being excited. I am talking about being purely sexually aroused by the topic. Is there anyone who can masturbate and climax to the site of a person being shredded or ripped apart and cut up? Of course I would be crazy to think someone would seriously confess such a thing.

I just can’t believe human minds can distort something so horrible into something arousing.”

I also need to add this response from the same fellow to one of the comments in the thread:

“Why the FUK do you keep bringing up Loli? This question is about one topic and one topic only. As I said if you would have bothered to read. Non of the other fetishes result in the death of the character or person. Guro is about a person being killed in a horrible way and somebody getting aroused by it. Guro is not a genre of hentai either. It is its own genre. To me Guro only covers one thing and that is death in a horrible way. Mutations and things like that where the participants don’t die is not guro. Guro should only include acts that result in death. At least that is my interpretation of it. There are other things that are lumped into it but that is due to poor interpretation of the poster.

If the person does not die then it is not guro. It is simply torture which is yet another fetish.

This discussion is not about any other topic then guro. SO DO NOT compare it to or bring other topics into it. Also loli discussions that start using the “P” word will get you banned. So refrain from using the “P” word.

You people are all trying to rationalize this as just another fetish which it might could be but I think this is why you miss the reasoning behind my question. So lets try it from another approach.

How can anyone get aroused by watching another person get horribly murdered and killed? How can a person get aroused by sticking their manhood in to holes from a freshly removed body part? How can a man get aroused by wrapping warm intestines around his manhood?

I am not talking about just a fantasy world here, I am talking in real life as well. I believe and you would be stupid to not believe it yourself that for many of these fantasy taboo and forbidden acts that we all see all the time that could be physically possible that there are people out there really performing them. It is these people that I am asking about.”

Well, I believe that I can put this question to rest. Firstly, I think that so many people were bringing in loli and beastiality because it is less of a question about the acts in guro and more of a question regarding the psychology of sick sex. Personally, the thought of a little kid having sex disgusts me, and i couldn’t see how that could turn somebody on, so I am throwing that out there for any loli freaks to answer.

Back to my point. I guess the best way to answer your question is to start with a few disclaimers. I should start by saying that I have no desire to “Stick it to the man” as was mentioned in the thread. The fact that it is taboo has absolutely nothing to do with why I look it up on those “lonely” nights. I am also not some murderous psychotic. Pretty much the main reason I look at guro is so that I don’t do it in real life. It’s a great venting tool, and I am very much aware what commiting these acts in real life mean to the families of the victims, and I would never wish that on somebody. Finally, I was raised in the same world as solarenemy. In fact, I feel very blessed to have the parents that I have. I pretty much gre up in a very calm home, with no fights, drunks, or deviancy of any kind. I was really born this way.

To explain how this all came about, I should start off with a little history of my life before I realized that I was into death. The first time that I had sex, I found myself very aroused by the sounds of my partner’s voice. Later on, she started to get a bit louder, and it turned me on even more. Now, I’m not sure if this may have contributed in any way, but I listen to mostly rock, metal, that kind of stuff, so I have grown accoustomed to screaming. The only deal is that I am heterosexual, and hearing men scream had done nothing for me, but a couple of weeks later, I had scared my friend (who’s a girl) as part of a prank. She reacted to me jumping out from a corner by screaming, and she did so as if she had been stabbed. Before then, I had never heard it mainly because I don’t really watch slasher flicks. I don’t know if you’ve ever heard it, but the sound of a woman screaming, and I mean truly screaming, is something that really gets your adrenaline pumping. For me, the sound was the scratch to my itch. It seemed that I could only reach maximum arousal if A woman screamed with all she had. Later that night, I watched a couple of scenes from some slasher flicks, and had the same result as earlier. Not long after, I found the band named torsof**k. They use a lot of inspiration from guro, and use samples of horror films’ audio for their music. I hadn’t seen guro yet, but I started masturbating to the audio samples from the music. I had already seen a lot of bondage, and would start associating the samples with bondage. After a while, though, It seemed unrealistic to me. I started thinking about the women getting stretched a bit further than they should have been, or having objects that were a bit too large being inserted into them, and like pieces to a puzzle, it made sense. I guess I always knew I was a sadist, but it wasn’t until two years ago did I realize the extent.

I was looking online for a gas mask, when I accidentally stumbled upon a guro site. I found the pictures fascinating, but not because of the huge amounts of blood used in the drawings. It was their faces. I really compliment the artists who draw guro, because the faces of the women seemed dead on to how it would really be. The anguish, the feeling of hopelessness in their eyes, I saw that and felt the most exiting erection I had ever experienced.

I think that (and I can’t really speak for every guro fan) I’m turned on by the energy that is spent on death and dying. I heard somewhere that when a body is killed, half of the energy it used to sustain life is immediately dispersed into its surroundings. I feel as if I am given some of this energy, even if I’m only a witness.
