The Behaviorist

Behaviorist Arousal TypeThe ‘sexual adventurer’ of the arousal types. Sex starts in the head. Most of the sexual charge comes from the thought or imaginings of specific sexual acts (or roles). The Behaviorist is drawn to the visual and/or imagination to boost sexual arousal.

A Behaviorist knows exactly what they like and have a unique erotic map that centers around visualizing and experimenting with those acts (roles). They are aroused by thinking about, talking about or watching — enjoying looking at sexy images or talking dirty to explore that particular act. Imaginative, impatient and spontaneous, the Behaviorist seeks something specific.

  • Sexual style: Behaviorists can be quite focused on a specific act or turn-on and get a tremendous sexual energy from thinking about and doing that particular act.

  • Starters: A Behaviorist will love to watch, plan for or talk about their specific act or role.

  • Tools: Sex toys and porn are popular items for this type.

  • Partner: A fellow sexual adventurer, or someone who gets excited, shares or at very least is non-judgemental about what act (or role) turns them on.

  • Turn-offs: The biggest way to turn off a Behaviorist is to not like (or judge) their particular sexy imagining.
