Quote from this book "The subject will, through the devices of the Institute and the services offered, be enabled to explore all avenues of sexual release that tantalize him, but which, for one reason or other, he cannot enact in the'real world'. Included for instance, might be such practices as homosexuality, bestiality, pedophilia, generalized sodomy, specialized sodomy, necrophilia or rape. These processes will also enable the subject to 'unblock' buried or unconscious fetishes which, once discovered, will be similarly gratified. Since all of the experiences are inducted, [needless to say!] through hypno-therapy, and do not impinge upon 'reality', the subject will be shielded at all times from the very serious consequences that he might incur if he were to perform such acts in the public domain. The hypno-therapeutically induced experiences will be no less vivid or satisfying, however, than their actual counterparts, and the guidance of experienced and specially-trained Institute personnel will be available at all times to lead the subject through these diverse avenues in order to bring hiim to a fuller understand of his drives and their fulfillment.
