Somnophilia — a common phenomenon or a perversion condemned by society
People”s sex life is full of variety, it is called endless. In this diversity we find the predisposition of some men and the predisposition to sexual satisfaction of certain kinds of situations, which seem at least a strange manifestation to others. Some fantasies (somnophilia is one of them) are fully recognized in society as perversions and can even be prosecuted by criminal law.

Manifestations of atypical sexual desire
Of course, when considering the problem of symptoms of various types of paraphilias (abnormal manifestations of sexual desire and erotic fantasies), it is worth noting that each of them is rare and most people are supporters of normal sexual intercourse.
At the same time, however, the presence of atypical (and in some cases abnormal) sexual desires should not be discounted. In such cases, what is accepted in the company about normal sexual stimulation is not enough to make a person aroused. Conventional factors of sexuality do not apply here.

Before jumping directly into the concept of somnophilia, it is necessary to consider what factors primarily influence what is considered sexual. Thus, the decisive role here, of course, is played by the media (TV shows and films, glossy magazines and newspaper covers). They are the ones who create for us ready-made images of male and female attractiveness. As they say, people are 90̽̽̽̽̽̽̽*60*90. In most cases, men listen to the generally accepted version of the relationship proposed by themselves. Sometimes this is their conscious choice, and sometimes they are driven by a purely subconscious attraction.
Thus, most members of the stronger sex are very typical with everyone and find that sexual attraction is no different. However, this is the majority, and according to the absolute majority, no one has yet abolished the presence of men in human society, according to an incredibly exciting factor.
Features of somnophilia
So, for example, a joke cannot serve its “master”—sumnophilia—too well. This is expressed in men”s open sexual attraction to sleeping partners or (what is much worse — unconscious partners). Such extremes are very different from the normal range of sexual desire. It can be safely described as an atypical, unpredictable and unexpected deviation from the usual sexual norm for most people.
Somnophilia, which most psychologists classify as a type of paraphilia, is considered a manifestation of compulsive behavior. It then finds expression in atypical and unacceptable ways of expressing the satisfaction of erotic desires.

According to psychologists, paraphilia suggests that a person requires abnormal situations to reach a peak of arousal. At the same time, he considers his behavior completely normal. The name “paraphilia” may speak for itself. Of the two words, it lives up to its definition.
- “Pair” — outside, next to, around.
In other words, paraphilia can be recognized as a purely individual tendency of psychological attitude towards stimulating factors, which manifests itself in men at a subconscious level. Fortunately, only a few representatives of the stronger half of humanity notice this feature. It is for them that the concept of sexual beauty seems at least vulgar.

Legal point of view
（ It is the unconscious state of the partner (according to the majority) that is considered immoral. Moreover, according to many state laws, this type of sexual activity is also classified as rape. The law does not permit sexual intercourse with a woman who is currently incapable of experiencing feelings of sexual desire and who at that moment cannot make an independent decision about whether or not to have sexual intercourse with a given sexual partner. Also, causing pain during sex is unacceptable.
As for somnophilia, at this time the woman’s body does not produce any special intimate lubricant. This is not surprising, since women do not achieve sexual arousal during sleep. Therefore, sex with a sleeping partner can easily harm her. Now we are talking about microcracks and perineal tears.
Somnophilia is not the only officially recognized type of paraphilia. It is even difficult to imagine a complete list of them, because clinical studies studying human behavior confidently state that the cause of sexual desire can be living or inanimate objects.
At the same time, for most ordinary people it may seem not only strange, but also frightening, that people can be aroused by the sight of wardrobe items, animals, sleeping partners, and even human bodies distorted by various types of trauma.
It has long been established that society has its own unwritten rules governing the norms of sexual behavior. This means that when there is a significant deviation from the norm, most people usually do not recognize such (in their personal opinion) tendencies towards perversion.
However, in citizens suffering from sexual misconduct, the erotic stimuli of desire, altered by the sick subconscious, are so strong that they completely displace reality and leave no room for normal sex. In especially difficult cases, they are ready to risk not only their freedom, but also their lives. And all this for unforgettable sexual satisfaction.
