Interesting piece, judicious editing may be in order. However, I don’t agree with the premise of this article. The sample set of AGP discussion about these men are ones who have emotional issues of sufficient degree that they require help, either psychological or “Reddit” chat. That prevents generalization to a larger audience.

There are many logical contradictions in the text - for instance the AGP inevitably presents as slutty, yet it is spoken of as a maternal (e.g. non-slutty) feeling. Therefore, they don’t present as maternal to themselves. The analysis of the situation isn’t illuminating to me.

Most people embedded in Western European cultural contexts have shame over sex - anyone not accustomed to public sex displays will be feel “shamed”, AGP no different. That’s not differentiating in the experience, not explanatory.

One unique aspect of AGP presentation is non-consensual induction of others into the sex fantasy, similar to other types of exhibitionism, which is what I believe we all respond badly to, particularly women. It’s a particularly acute part of the game - not just autoerotic masturbatory fantasies. Aside from rage, that’s not touched on.

Presenting as a slutty woman, intentionally creating a situation to irritate others, narcissistic rage at intentionally evoked rejection, isolated masturbatory fantasy replay, these are content that, were we to read AGP porn (which I have in curiosity) form the narrative.

I would also counter with considering Auto-androphilia, men who derive erotic satisfaction from presenting to themselves and others as sex-stereotyped caricatures - enormously muscular, highly aggressive, militaristic, sporting, etc.

I think these are eerily similar variations on underlying drive to gain sexual satisfaction by creating and controlling responses of others through authoritarian exhibitionism, providing fodder for later sexual masturbatory replay.

AGP is easy to see, because it’s unexpected. AAP is difficult to discern because the behaviors are expected, even lauded, and others don’t see the sexual part
