A "Saimin Complex". This is a person who is turned on solely by surrealistic and serene influences of the psyche such as hypnosis and/or mind control. This is not to be confused with a hypno-fetishist who may have multiple other fetishes in addition to hypnosis. A psymicon is aroused only by hypnosis itself and is not even turned on by things like graphic nudity, genitalia, and sexual intercourse; though such things may be incidental in their content. The term is a sort of play on words derived from the Japanese word “saimin” (written 催眠 in kanji) which means "hypnotism" in that language and the word "psyche" which means "mind" in the English language. By replacing the beginning syllable "sai-"with the prefix "psy-" the word "psymicon" or "psymi-con" becomes an effort to emphasize the fact that psymicon are interested in the occurrences of the mind rather than that of the body. The suffix, "-con", follows the same convention of words like lolicon, brocon, and siscon, meaning "complex". Psymicon content does not require any sexually explicit imagery to be portrayed at all. The only thing required in psymicon content is tasteful and creative portrayals of various alternative psychological influences such as hypnotism.
