Compuphilia is the [sexual attraction] to computers. Hammersley and Kendick8 (2005) theorized that either of the following situations could be antecedents to compuphilia(pp. 161): 1. The compuphile develops poor self-esteem (a) He (usually male) is very fearful of rejection by women and he desires a [sexual partner] who is incapable of rejecting him 2. He develops an exciting fantasy of sex with a computer, sometimes after prolonged exposure to a computer. The authors also reported that, of their sample of 'compuphiliacs,' 68 percent were motivated by a desire for an unresisting and unrejecting partner; 21 percent by a want for union with machinery; 15 percent by [sexual attraction] to computers; 15 percent by a desire for comfort or to overcome feelings of isolation; and 12 percent by a desire to remedy low self-esteem by expressing power over a computer (pp. 159).
