Hypnohub Science Survey: What's your Attachment Style?
I've been thinking about how to make mind control as erotic as possible (it's for Slaver's Quest, a game I'm working on), so I've been thinking a lot about the fetish's root:
Why do we like control so much?
Why does it have to be mental control, and not physical?
How come our common tropes are things like unaware, altered perception, subconscious triggers, and mindlessness?
Where does this all come from?
--------------------------------------------
I hypothesize that for a plurality of us, our hypno-fetish stems from a dismissive-avoidant attachment style:
Dismissive avoidance can also be explained as the result of defensive deactivation of the attachment system to avoid potential rejection, or genuine disregard for interpersonal closeness...
Because of their distrust they cannot be convinced that other people have the ability to deliver emotional support. Under a high cognitive load, however, dismissive-avoidant adults appear to have a lowered ability to suppress difficult attachment-related emotions, as well difficulty maintaining positive self-representations. This suggests that hidden vulnerabilities may underlie an active denial process.

However, I want to confirm with you guys by hearing about your experiences (and if we're lucky, maybe learn a bit more about ourselves).
