A - Acrotomophilia  


11/7/2006 6:08 pm
An acrotomophile, is a person who is aroused either by having sex with an amputee, or fantasizing about it.

Acrotomophiles sometimes can convince a consenting partner to wrap a hand or foot in bandages.

People may become attracted to amputees for a variety of reasons. Those include vicarious sadism, low self-esteem, a legitimate excuse for poor performance, a need to rescue………and fear.

Clubs exist that provide introductions or referrals for amputees, and literature exists that provides written materials and photos.

Fascination magazine features only photos and stories about female amputees.
