Narcissistic Perversion is a psychoanalytical term resulting from the association of two Freudian notions: perversion and narcissism.[1] It is a behavioural disorder characterised by an organised way of defending oneself from all the internal pain or contraindications and expelling them elsewhere, while at the same time overrating oneself with enjoyment.[2]
The concept of narcissistic perversion was first known in the works of psychoanalyst Marie-France Hirigoyen, called Moral harassment (La Découverte & Syros, 1998).[3] According to Marie-France Hirigoyen, the narcissistic pervert hates noble sentiments, generosity, or any moral qualities. They are interested in hurting the other person's morality, perverting them, and breaking the law.The difference between it and sexual perversions is that it idealises oral sadistic urges but not erogenous pleasures.[4]
