Dr Tiger is sought out by media as expert in NYC’s ‘cannibal cop’ case:
from the Associated Press Article:
Tiger Howard Devore, a psychologist and certified sex therapist who specializes in dealing with sexual dysfunction and fetishes, said the cannibalism fetish known as voreaphilia isn’t common.
“For most laymen, they’re going to think about it as cannibalism,” Devore told The Associated Press on Monday. “But what it really is, is an obsession about consuming the flesh of the other, and this can have a whole range of expressions. … It is mostly played out in fantasy, mostly played out in role-playing.”
There are well-known criminal extremes like Jeffrey Dahmer, who saved pieces of his victims’ body parts and ate the flesh, Devore said, though “the instances of this kind of violence are extremely rare.”
