What other authors would I potentially enjoy if I'm deeply attracted to the idea of death as the ultimate erotic concept?

>>25202100
Probably Bataille.

Crash by JG Ballard is probably up your ally.

>He was hanging on a gallows or a high branch--in any case, at a great height--the sun was shining, yet this posture, though certainly uncomfortable, did not seem to involve any immediate inconvenience, since he was taking particular pleasure in contemplating the sun-flooded landscape and the globed treetops far below. But the heart of the sensual joy that filled him was much nearer: beneath him--so close that at times his bare feet almost brushed against her blond hair--a thin cord suspended Mona by the neck from his ankles. The wind swung both of them gently through the balmy, pleasant air, and from the rope that was strangling Mona, especially when she was shaken by faint convulsions that raised her shoulders, he received--at his bound ankles and also at his neck where the cord took another turn--so exquisite a communication of her naked living weight searching, stretching, piecing his body, that he experienced a physical pleasure he had never known before, this ending in the final indecency attributed to hanged men.

is cumming a known response to being hanged?
>>
>>25202142
Yes, part of why autoerotic asphyxiation is a thing.
>>
>>25202142
You've never heard of auto erotic asphyxiation?
>>
>>25202145
>>25202146
yeah, but I thought it was a fetish thing, specific to the people who like being choked. Didn't realize it was a physiological reaction.

I wonder what happens in a person's brain to have a deep fascination with death since, to most people, death is the most horrifying concept, so much so that we spend a lot of energy ignoring it and pushing it out of our minds
>>
>>25202341
It's an attempt to adapt to an unavoidable stressor. Like stockholm syndrome.
>>
>>25202341
What happens in a person's brain to cause them to spend their lives acting like the inevitable will never happen?
>>
>>25202341
Have you seen death? Not distant death, close intimate death. Something alive, then broken forever, entirely seperate from what it was, as well as the transition between normal, then maimed. You see that shit young enough and you'll be fascinated with it too.

>>25202427
there was an accident right in front of my house between a truck and a guy on a bike
I was a little kid, probably younger than 8. My parents closed every window and looked the door so I couldn't see or go outside. Later I caught them talking about it. How his body had been completely destroy and there was bits all over the road and they saw one of his boots with a foot inside. This story and that image of the boot with his foot inside always stuck in my head.

Also, I was a very outdoorsy kid so I would always get bruises and cuts on me and every time I get a cut i'd just stare at it for long stretches of time. Sometimes I'd try to spread it open cause it just fascinated me. I wanted to look inside. One time I got a cut on my thumb and I had to stop spreading it open cause it was getting bad.

I also enjoy guro art but I never enjoyed gore. At least most gore. There is nothing appealing to me bout people killing each other with chainsaws or common murders. The average thing you'd see on liveleak and so on.

Neat. See, something similar happened to me. I was 14 or so and at an intersection in a fairly normal suburb. SUV turning left, another car ran the red light going and smashed directly into the driver's side, flipping the SUV on top of it because of the low profile. When cars are hit with enough force they naturally have crumple zones, but they also flip and roll to try and diffuse some of the inertia. Well wouldnt you know, the SUV absolutely obliterated the car that hit it. I'd describe it like getting sheered, but it was mostly flattened. Just like you described, chunks of human everywhere. The driver of the car was pulverized in the wreckage. But in the SUV there was a mom and her kids.

I was right at the intersection where the guy ran the red light, right at the corner, and almost exactly where the SUV stopped rolling. It was immediately obvious no one was going to survive, but they hadnt quite died yet. The mom was in fragments, like gurgling, begging me to help her kids. Her window was down and she had her arm out the window when she was hit. I didnt look at the back seat but apparently none of the kids were wearing a seatbelt. I only found out about that after. The fuck was I going to do? Scoop up the chunks and staple them together? I just stood there in shock, talked to the police when they showed up, and since everyone died there was no point going to court. I didn't even tell my parents it happened, but I was obviously fucked up afterwards.

Anyways, dramatic story aside, I got over it, but things were dark for a while. There's a sense of duty to see something like that, to witness it, and I consider it an honor. You can look away. I figure most people would and probably should. Maybe I cant, I don't feel like sad or glad or excited about it, moreso obligated. Not for me, but for whatever is dying, and I guess I'd rather a beautiful and dramatic end then rotting to death in a nursing home.

>Now you must listen. The point is that you cannot imagine that I, the head of the household, so to speak, can behave in this fashion; you cannot believe that a life as rich as yours, as sensual as yours, as honored, can suddenly be reduced inexplicably to fear, grief, skid marks, a few shards of broken glass; you simply do not know that as a child I divided my furtive time quite equally between those periodicals depicting the most brutal and uncanny destructions of human flesh (the elbow locked inside the mouth, the head half buried inside the chest, the statuary of severed legs, dangling hands) and those other periodicals depicting the attractions of young women living partially or totally in the nude.
>Spare me, you cry. Spare me. But the lack of knowledge and lack of imagination are yours, not mine. And it will not be against a tree. There you are even more grossly mistaken.

You would immediately read DH Lawrence's short story "The Prussian Officer." Then you would start reading the rest of Lawrence.
