How do sexual kinks/fetishes develop?
In: 369
As /u/sylverbound noted, it’s never a case of nurture ***vs*** nature, but instead, nature ***with*** nurture. Epigentics is starting to take off as a field of research and I suspect in most cases, that preferred behavior (whether that’s kink-related or simply routine and habitual behaviors) is a result of nature (e.g., genetic predispositions, generational trauma [which is oddly significant in regards to sexual activities], etc.) and nurture (upbringing, socioeconomic status, etc.). The two are inter-related; changes in one’s nurture can arouse changes in one’s nature (epigentics).
