>I'm betting the perpetrator was brought up in an environment where A) sex was not addressed openly and honestly, B) abstianing from real, meaningful contact was required, and maybe even C) sexual mutilation was taught as an absolute truth (if it drives you to sin, cut it off, ect.)

This is a serious question: are "snuff films" aimed at sexual gratification or at some other 'need' of curiously constructed minds? (I've never seen a "snuff film" and don't ever expect to)
