| Inspired by a deep and meaning conversation with my good friend Chelsey. Do you believe that all readers of guro (which by definition is essentially grotesque pornography, more common in hentai and Go Nagai anime) are future serial killers? Obviously this isn't true, so please provide reasons to why you enjoy guro that wouldn't lead others to think that you're a budding serial killer. Furthermore in extreme cases guro could potentially lead to the death of the sexual partner mid intercourse, do you believe that they would continue the act? Or do you believe that being a budding serial killer would prevent you from becoming a necrophiliac through means such as the emotional trauma of dead bodies, do you think there are any other factors that would prevent necrophilia in this case? |

| Nay! Guro is all about giving love in your own special way. |
 |
| Not at all, you would have to be dumb to think otherwise |
 |
| Well not sure ive ever heard that before. |
 |
| Lets call this a mature convo, lets generalize all guro readers. |
| Of course we are |
 |
| This could all definitely happen. It could also not happen, or happen with someone who doesn't read that sort of thing. I feel like your questions are less of questions then they are telling us what could happen in the form of a question. And, them becoming serial killers is an entirely different question than that of them presumably accidentally killing their partners and possibly becoming necrophiliacs, which I think is more than likely to happen as their mind would still be hazy from pleasure and they probably wouldn't comprehend the significance of what they had done. In fact their brains might trick them into thinking that their lover is still alive. Either way, it wouldn't end well, so I'd like to think this would never happen and go on with my life. PS. I don't really think grotesque porn really messes up with your brain. There isn't any thing wrong with S&M as long as two partners are willing, and you know what your doing (like try not to loose too much blood if you rip the skin during anal or if you want to mark them, or even stuff like figging or using wax torture, just make sure to have consent and a safe word) If you read something like Shin Gendai Ryoukiden and enjoyed it than you were messed up in the head to begin with. |

| Well sure some would be potential psychopaths but not all with anti social personality disorder become killers. Also not everyone who likes guro is a psychopath or sociopath. I just like the art of only some guro but most i cant stand to look at since sometimes it just really gets to me. |
| No. It's possible that readers could end up becoming serial killers in the future, but I'm doubtful that most cases would have their serial killing directly linked to their reading of guro. |
| We need as much lewdness as we can possibly get. ~ Komine Sachi |
| I'd believe that most are just morbidly curious. |
 |
| I believe that anyone can develop a fetish or preference for pretty much anything - just because they develop a fetish for something violent doesn't mean they want to experience it or have it happen in real life. Normal people can separate reality from fantasy. Maybe a few people who aren't mentally stable may latch onto it and let it propel them to become a serial killer, but that's not due to the media consumed - that's due to their brain not functioning properly. |
| No, serial killers kill small animals and pets for fun before killing people. |
 |
| OP, please don't use "Go Nagai" as a prime example of guro. Yes, I know he has done some really violent, grotesque stuff like "Violence Jack," but he also created plenty of non-violent stuff he is more famous for, like "Mazinger Z." Go Nagai also created the great "Cutey Honey," and "Dream Dimension Hunter Fandora." |
 |
| No. Most read it because of morbid curiosity and the horror aspect. There's a difference between fiction and reality. A person like that would initially have some type of disorder. I'm sure there are some like that who enjoy it. |
 I can see you |
| Cannibals and Sadists maybe. |
| Yes, there is no difference between fiction and reality. Personally I have committed so many murders and genocides in games I'm worse than Hitler, Stalin and all US and Israeli presidents combined. |
| Most people are capable of separating fiction from reality. If a guro reader feels compelled to become a serial killer because of guro and their attraction to gore and violence they were not mentally stable to begin with. |
| I hope you weren't talking about me |

| Everyone who has ever watched a ghost movie is a budding ghostbuster Everyone who has ever walked past a game shop with call of duty playing in the window is going to be a serial killer. Anyone born ever is going to become a serial killer. Everyone on MAL will at some point draw a shitty version of an anime character on their pillow and rape it. |

| Does everyone who plays GTA go on killings sprees? Well it's the highest selling game of all time and crime rates are at an all time low so. In fact when crime rates were at their peak video games weren't near as popular as they are now. |
| I have really funny thoughts that no one will get to hear. |
| That is why I don't look at gore. I don't want to look at evil things. There is an old saying... ""Do no evil, speak no evil, see no evil."" You are breaking the "see no evil" commandment by looking at guro aka gore. I may be somewhat perverted. But I would never look at f'ing gore, let alone fap to it. Because if you look at it too much, you will eventually be densensitized to it. And if you hang out with other sickos that promote gore/snuff videos, you will (very likely) act it out aka murder someone. I hope that answers your question! |
| Fact Japan doesn't really have a huge rate of serial killers let alone even murderers shows that isn't likely the case. Maybe would be serial killers would have a higher percentage into it than the general public but the same might also be true of detectives and criminal forensic experts and doctors. |
| I'm not a serial killer because killing people isn't really that fun to do tbh. |

| Doesn't matter because it can never be proved they would become one, the same applies to practically every other "thought crime" in existence. People can jack off to whatever crazy shit they wanna think about, as long as it doesn't cause any real harm to others, it's nobody else's business. That said, I don't watch nor read any guro stuff, so I can't provide the reasons you asked for. |
This dance is the pinnacle of human achievement. |
| I'd take the guess that people who would violently murder someone would disproportionately like guro, while it's possibly also true that the existence of that kind of material sates the desires of such people enough to reduce murder. |
| A lot of the people I've met online who were into guro as a fetish, were in fact masochists who enjoyed self-inserting as the victim. |
| Real life interests rarely intersect with fiction. Maniacs just watch torture live streams nowdays, and torturing humans has quite steep learning curve, so they typically start with animals. Guro is too close to a pinnacle, it can't be used as a learning material. |
| Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. |
| Pretty sure most guro enthusiasts can separate fantasy from reality. Hopefully. |
| "Are guro readers budding serial killers?" Not really. |
