Talk:Sexual vampire

Another section on present-day usages?
Some people in the contemporary vampire lifestyle use the term "sexual vampire" without reference to China or van Gulik. Any WP contributors interested in adding a final section to the present article might find these references useful.

Katherine Ramsland describes a taxonomy delineating six different "races"’ of vampires: Classicals, Inheriters, Nighttimers, Genetics, PsiVamps, and sexual vampires. (1998: 534).

Sexual vampires, a.k.a. "eros vampires" or "tantric vampires", are defined as "any vampire, regardless of their feeding needs, who actively requires some sort of sexual stimuli, either produced or evoked, in order to make the act of feeding of value." (Carré and Gray 2016: 37)
