Andrea Dworkin, dans « Femme qui déteste », traite le sujet de la nécrophilie comme un trait important des fantasmes sexuels patriarcaux. Les femmes vives ne sont pas sexy, ils sont ennuyeux, ennuyeux, stressant. A woman should shut up and listen or shut up and become a sexual object. Dworkin makes an analysis of some fairy tales and comes to the conclusion that dead women are the sexiest in patriarchal male imagery. Snow-white is the main example. Because dead women don’t talk, don’t oppose horrible sexual practices, they just don’t move and are quiet. Submissive small, weak Asian women are very well represented in pornography and not only.
The new industry of BDSM satisfies male necrophilia. See this women transforming into a sexy corpse. There are men who get excited by accidents, natural disasters, wars, torture. This is patriarchal necrophilia. And it is not about some pathological cases, but normal men we can encounter on the street. Orhan Pamuk, in “Istanbul: Memories and the City” talks in a very neutral manner about the pleasure of watching arson among young people, surtout les hommes, reading about torture methods and disasters. Men like destruction and death in patriarchy. Men like dead, inactive, inert, catatonic women. But why would a woman enjoy such things? An accurate study would provide an answer.
