I mean, I am 100% comfortable with saying I like "toxic/bad stuff" in fiction because it's interesting and/or hot and because it's fictional. Do you go interrogate people who write detective novels about why they are into crime?

I'm on your side, I don't agree with the secret, but this^ is an apples to oranges scenario and it never stops being an apples to oranges scenario no matter how many times people trot it out.

If the person writing detective novels was sexually titillated by the sections where the crime was committed, then yes, I have absolutely zero doubt that OP would think the author (and like-minded readers) ought to think about why depictions of crime appealed to them sexually.

I think you just proved that you missed AYRT's point, which is, Why is enjoyment of any kind of fiction so much more likely to be questioned when it's sexual?

THIS

People act as though sexual arousal has some kind of unique supernatural power to warp minds that other forms of excitement don't. It's just not true.

NAYRT

I honestly do not understand why people think enjoying something sexually is so fundamentally different from enjoying it any other way. It's really, really not. All enjoyment of media comes from emotions and brain chemicals. If you enjoy car chases in films because they arouse adrenaline, are you more likely to be a reckless driver in real life because you want to chase that thrill? If you enjoy crime in fiction because of the excitement and tension it arouses, that is really not significantly different from emotional excitement that involves genitals.
