Sexual inclination


One of the levels of sexual inclination - this is psycho-sexual orientation. The only factor, which in this plan can cause avoidance tendencies, is the aggression, whose level is assigned by the balance of the sexual hormones: by estrogen, by testosterone. Aggression can be manifested in the form of rivalry, hierarchy of domination, hostile interrelations. (See: Instincts and reflexes.)

Let us place different types of behavior according to the sign of aggressiveness in the ascending order from below - upward.

man's, aggressive
man's, weakly aggressive (paternal)
female (maternal)
without interaction (solitude)

Normal sexual (sexual) orientation in men, beginning from the early childhood, is formed via the avoidance of the extreme manifestations of man aggression (but from other side - solitude) and with tendency toward the female (maternal) interaction mode (without the explicit spirit of rivalry), and therefore to gravity to the women.

Interaction between the men according to the type "weakly aggressive" is characteristic for the business, friendly and play (in the childhood) relations, and also - for the relations in the family.

For molding of the psycho-sexual orientation of women important is also the aggressive type of interrelation between the men. Aggressive manifestations - rivalry, domination - are received (unconsciously) by women as the sign of force, the ability to protect. And this becomes the main reason for gravity to the men.

The final fastening of the outlined orientation occurs, when sexual ripening begins, and when is strengthened between the representatives different floors mutual empathy (see: Attractiveness, the phenomenon of beauty.).

The influence of family (strict father, good mother) does not have, apparently, decisive importance in the formation of sexual orientation, since relation in the family, as a rule, are more formal are smoothed than out of the family.

Consequently, interaction from the early childhood in the groups of the contemporaries mixed according to the sexual sign, where will occur both some aggressive and nonagressive manifestations, will consider standard.

Asymmetry of the normal sexual orientation, man and female, svyazanna with the asymmetry of manifestation and perception of aggression in men and women. With the deviations (homosexuality, lesbiyanstvo), the asymmetry of orientations becomes more noticeable. Arise deviations can both for the biological reasons (for example, a change in the hormonal balance) and on the social (different isolations).

Another level of sexual inclination is connected with the genital sensations (which projectively are extended also to the representatives of opposite floor). It is at first glance, the sequence of events appears as follows: the state of sexual (sexual) excitation, accompanied by the erection of sex organ, impels to the sexual proximity. However, excitation cannot be primary (in the sense of onto- and phylogenesis) in this the turn of events, since originally "not known" what signals must it start, also, for what purpose. The situation of avoidance, created with internal, physiological mechanisms, can give correct orientator only. This situation creates the mechanism of the erection initially independent from the external signals: in men - sexual term, in women - clitoris.

The fact is that the erection can appear spontaneously, and not only during the intimate relations. And another important observation, which escapes from the first: erection in the majority of the cases is not accompanied by the sexual excitation (i.e., it appears only genital excitation). For example, during the rapid phase of sleep, in the mornings after sleep, but sometimes also in the daytime, the spontaneous erection, which does not pass into the sexual excitation, can have obtrusive nature and cause the state of overall discomfort, frustration, or the discomfort of overcrowding and irritation (during the sleep - unconscious) directly in the sex organs. This is the biologically programmed state, the internal situation, which causes the reaction of avoidance. The appearing then (stimulated by imagination or during the sexual contact) pleasant sensations in the sex organs (see: Inversion of emotions - base shielding mechanism.) and pleasant sexual excitation - are second and they only indicate the direction, following which weakening internal stress (lightening the state of discomfort), occurs, which in the final analysis determines the model of sexual behavior.

During the rapid phase of sleep not only "is accumulated" internal stress in connection with the erection, but also appear situational conditional reactions (which, apparently, rapidly are braked) to the situational signals in the subjects of dreams. Many conditional connections to the situation, possibly, explain that, with what ease the erection in the appropriate situations passes into the sexual excitation. I.e., two factors: from one side, the pressure of unconditional reaction (state of discomfort to the erection), and with another, the "accumulation" of conditional connections to the situation, they balance in the close one to the position of equilibrium (this it is determined, apparently, by the relationship of a quantity of sleeps and by the duration of erection during the rapid phase of sleep), which gives the common picture of the "distance of unpleasant stimulus". This increases the probability of inversion - the passage of the negative emotion of discomfort into the positive emotion - pleasant genital sensations. (See: Reflexes, emotions, motives.)

Generally, under the action of sexual inclination the wide circle of all possible inversions occurs. Thus, the smells or the visual means, in other cases which cause aversion, in the intimate interrelations can acquire the property of the additional exciting factor. (See: Displacement, inversion, sublimation - stages of process.)

The culmination moment of sexual behavior is orgasm - experience of strong sexual satisfaction, which coincides with the sharp weakening of nervous and muscular tension, in men connected with the ejaculation. Physiological sensations and psychological experiences of orgasm are third component of the phenomenon of sexual inclination.

Commentaries

Reconstruction from the site: Peace of Psychology. (Ru)
Theme: Sexual orientation, inclination, spontaneous erection.


V.I.

The following diagram of the formation of sexual orientation and sexual inclination is assumed.

The appearing spontaneous erection (in men - sexual term, in women - clitoris) causes first discomfort, negative emotions. Then, in proportion to habituation (braking the conditioned reflexes to the situation) occurs inversion, i.e., negative emotions from one case to the next begin to be converted into the positive. Appear the pleasant sensations in the sex organs, which pass into the prevailing positive emotion (general sexual excitation, euphoria), on the basis of which appears the prevailing motivation - sexual inclination. Inclination to the opposite floor is formed by the mechanism of projection, i.e., sensations in the sex organs are projected on the persons of opposite floor.
The direction of sexual orientation is assigned by interaction in the groups. The men have correct sexual orientation (inclination to the women) - the result of aggressive interaction in the man medium (rivalry, hostile relations causes rejection). In women - this is the unconscious estimation of the aggressive behavior of men (hardness, self-confidence, domination, the ability to protect) as attractive.



Leon

You will excuse, but delirium complete....

Quotation:
Inclination to the opposite floor is formed by the mechanism of projection, i.e., sensations in the sex organs are projected on the persons of opposite floor.

i.e., in the sexual inclination is primary erection? Steeply...

Quotation:
The men have correct sexual orientation (inclination to the women) - the result of aggressive interaction in the man medium (rivalry, hostile relations causes rejection).

I.e., if not there is sopernnichestva, then homosexuality is decided beforehand?

Quotation:
Inclination to the opposite floor is formed by the mechanism of projection, i.e., sensations in the sex organs are projected on the persons of the opposite floor

you generally do remember, in what the designation of sex?



V.I.

Quotation:
i.e., in the sexual inclination is primary erection?

It is similar, yes...
As ejaculation occurs without the orgasm, so also spontaneous erection (observing from the early childhood) first it appears without the general sexual excitation.
Let us represent on the contrary, that the sexual excitation is primary. But what signal must it start? Cannot be genetically programmed similar that any specific means would cause excitation (for example, with the imprinting it is programmed only mechanism itself, but not visual means).
It is analogous, as a result of injury first appears the pain, excitation, and then pleasant skin itch of the healing wound. Here pain is primary, the general excitation and euphoria - are second.

Quotation:
I.e., if not there is sopernnichestva, then homosexuality is decided beforehand?

Such in nature it does not occur so that not there would be rivalry. If rarely and it occurs (for example, as a result of isolation), then yes, are possible deviations.

Projection - this conditional connection it shows, what signal (for example, visual means) must cause the conditional reaction (excitation and erection), which, as is known, it is constructed on the basis of unconditional (spontaneous erection and reaction to it). I.e., man his sensations in the sex organs first projects to the sex organs of woman, and then, at the sight the more or less exposed woman operates conditional reaction, appear the same sensations and motives, but strengthened to the level of the prevailing motivation.

Here are well-known facts.
With alcoholism, addiction, method of tranquilizers, soporific is disrupted the structure of sleep, in particular, rapid phase. Is disturbed the spontaneous erection, which within the standard is observed during this phase. As a result the level of sexual inclination is reduced, impotence can develop. Here, of course, is possible the influence and of other factors.



Without the difference

In order to be dismantled at this situation, it is necessary to compulsorily read the book on zoopsychology K.Z. Fabry about the instincts and different forms of instruction from the generation are further. To further read a little Vilyunasa V.K. about the mechanisms of mental obuslavlivaniya and mediation.
In the sum correct picture will come out.



Semion

as feels herself woman I do not know. but in my view of women barely interests sex to woman more important man arm - combination of the mind and of force which is caused then can interest concerning men takeing into account their force that they usually they want from the women of sex this correctly.
well and dinner on the table of tasty and faithfulness so that the child would be precise the husband and not of uncle - the neighbor



Mar'yn

Yes, here Semion completely rights nashchet sex also. For some reason sex is the basis of good relations, can so must be. Repair me, if I not rights.



Semion

if woman feels that man promising and it will be with it that it already can it will be weakened think about the sex.
in the first place from the man this to be im. to toyest' to earn money and not to offend to be also accurate but for the man this so not importantly and importantly so that the woman would feel that it they will not throw especially with the child



Leks

Quotation:
as feels herself the woman I do not know. but the sex barely interests in my view of women

Khm... Daring assertion... About I do not correctly said know that the women feel, but if their sex (girl, you prostite) and really does not interest, then they hide this in any case very skillfully...

Which to the arms, umishcha and other prospects, then it seems objects this excite women by themselves, is much more rapid than it manages to be weakened

But good, features take, a question... It seems, it stands that b to become separate theme.



ThE

You will better explain to me as it works the complex of elektry, and why generally small girls withstand their "amorous inclination" to the father if for them and for the boys the first love - this is mother.



Semion

Freud wrote that boy and father they receive each other as rivals both girls and mothers also also quarrel

therefore always mother suppress sexuality of girls and the fathers of the boys

and attraction occurs along the channels of reciprocity and friendship - different floor



Andrey Bulatovas

Women are capricious - with the men to frequently more easily agree! Therefore in people, which cannot GOVERN their reflexes, is formed sexual orientation by means of smaller resistance.



Semion

yes are better whims than the aggression of men.



Hector

ThE:
You will better explain to me as it works the complex of elektry, and why generally small girls withstand their "amorous inclination" to the father if for them and for the boys the first love - this is mother.

They transfer it because the disappointment in the mother, whom is considered "castrated", is tested.



Archetype

...Freudism at every turn   ;)



V.I.

ThE, the quotation:
You will better explain to me as it works the complex of elektry, and why generally small girls withstand their "amorous inclination" to the father if for them and for the boys the first love - this is mother.

The fact that they assume as the complexes of Edipa and Elektry, can be connected also with the social-welfare reasons. For example, fathers are less demanding to the daughters than to the sons. But mothers, daughters are more frequently than they assign sons on the work on the house.
