On discovery of... fear of narcissism.

The question remains, why... a strong self-censoring moment at the occasion of self-perception that arouses something akin to erotism?

"[...T]he image is flesh of the world. It can never be fully contained."

  • Amelia Jones, SELF/IMAGE

Adoration of a woman on a photo/image.

Struggling with feelings pulling back,
forbiding the self-adoration,
as an immoral act.

Narcissism is characterized by a grandiose sense of self-importance, a lack of empathy for others, a need for excessive admiration, and the belief that one is unique and deserving of special treatment.

Excitement when addressed with female pronouns. Why.
