The link between Compulsive Sexual Behavior (CSB) and atypical sexual interests is
elusive. This study aimed to provide preliminary insights into the relationship between
both aspects. The study sample comprised 61 self-identified straight men. CSB was
measured through a composite self-report index assessing symptoms of CSB, whereas
sexual interests –atypical and normophilic– were assessed objectively through penile
plethysmography. The CSB index had small, non-significant correlation with greater
sexual response to different sexual stimuli (rgeneral sexual responsiveness=.127 [95% CI: -.137,
.384]). In terms of overall sexual interest, increased scores on the CSB index had small,
non-significant correlation with a higher preference for younger sexual stimuli (r=-.098
[95% CI: -.499, .215]) and persuasive sex (r=.10 [95% CI: -.168, .316]). Finally, CSB
had a moderate correlation with sexual response when presented with stimuli depicting
“female toddler coercive” (r=.27 [95% CI: -.083, .544]). We conclude that our findings
do not support the hypotheses that CSB is significantly related to an increased
arousability across sexual stimuli. The study findings also suggest that CSB may be, to
a small degree, predisposed to experience sexual attraction toward children. Given the
preliminary nature of the study, these conclusions warrant further research. Alternative
explanations for the study findings related to the particular components of CSB that
may be related to typical and atypical sexual interests are also considered [-]
