Here's an interesting perspective from Professor John Money:

Chaper 4, p. 126:

Lovemaps and Paraphilia


p. 127:

2 NORMOPHILIC AND PARAPHILIC LOVEMAPS

A lovemap is defined as a personalized, developmental representation or template in the mind and in the brain that depicts the idealized lover and the idealized program of sexuoerotic activity with that lover as projected in imagery and ideation, or actually engaged in with that lover (Money, 1983, 1986a).









By John Money, pp. 126-128 in Gay, Straight and In-Between: The Sexology of Erotic Orientation. New York, NY: Oxford University Press. 1988.
