First of all, here is the definition of necrophilia:
"Necrophilia is a paraphilia which involves an individual sexually aroused by fantasies of or actual sexual contact with a deceased person. Contact between the necrophile and the corpse may range from penile-vaginal intercourse to anal intercourse, oral sex, or masturbation in the presence of a corpse."
"Officially, one must experience at least six months of intense, recurring urges or fantasies involving sexual contact with corpses to be diagnosed with necrophilia, and these feelings must alter one’s behavior or cause one significant distress."

My theory is that necrophilia stems from some form of insecurity or fear and there are many articles I've read online that seem to agree with me, but some necrophiles here have claimed that theory is wrong.
According to the article in the source mentioned above:
"A desire to have sex with dead people may stem from an intense fear of interacting with potential living partners. Necrophiliacs may view corpses as emotionally or physically non-threatening. Some necrophiliacs may be attracted to the fact that corpses cannot reject, disagree, manipulate or abuse them. They may also enjoy the feeling of being completely in control."
What I don't understand from those who disagree with that opinion is, if you really don't have any insecurities or fears related to living people and you can maintain healthy relationships with them, why would you be attracted to dead people? What could a dead person possibly offer you that a living person can't?
I'm curious how some of you developed your initial attraction to the dead. When did you begin to realize that you are sexually attracted to dead people?
Do you enjoy sex with living people?
Why are living people not enough to satisfy your sexual desires?
Does being a necrophile cause you distress? If yes, why?
And finally, were you raised in a healthy, stable environment?
