Don't Worship Your Body!

Religion (body as a shrine), cannibalism, religious prostitution, sex work (conform to stereotypes like big boobs), human sacrifice. In narcissism, the body is either idealized or devalued, but considered in both cases a persecutory object (aging, disease, disability and death) that needs to be placated (sacrifices) or maintained/renovated. This ambivalence and existential angst (dread) are anxiogenic (hypochondriasis). They lead to OCD (e.g., injurious, ritualistic exercise regime) and a dissociated body (estrangement). Seat of trauma (body keeps score) and of healing. Somatization, somatoform disorders, and conversion. Solution: objectified but fluid body (e.g, makeup, plastic surgery). Objectifying body as bait and a strategy to elicit narcissistic supply. The somatic leverages his body to obtain narcissistic supply via: Flagellation or mortification (Christian saints, Diogenes, Gandhi, endurance sports). Autoerotic gratification (confirmatory sex). Nudity and sex: sexual narcissists is wrong, it is somatic. Narcissism is somatized not only via sex. Signaling: palimpsest of hidden and over texts. Tattoes: externalizing one’s essence and recording one’s personal history, milestones, mnemonics. Tattoos signal rank, in-group affiliation (gangs). Bodybuilding (compensatory, rewriting body by rewiring musculature emphases). Martial arts (philosophy and worldview). Sports (extreme). Sartorial attire: Normcore vs. ostentatious clothing. Othering: recognizing and accepting the externality and separateness of other people. Child others himself via mother's gaze: first body (Freud's psychosexual stages), then mind (early form of neutral splitting). Then child others mother and transitions to object relations (from autoerotic narcissistic libido to other-directed object libido). Narcissism is a failure of othering, so the child remains stuck in the othered body (somatic-solipsistic) phase or othered mind (cerebral-solipsistic) phase.
