I would be if the person I lived with did not constantly remind me to eat by cooking stuff that smells delicious.

I’m torn about it to be honest. I’d be way less fat and more attractive if I was left to “unhealthily” naturally skip meals. That said, home cooked food is tasty.

I mean, if someone explicitly states in their will that they’re OK with their body being turned into a sex toy (or even that its one of their wishes) that complicates things but there are still good reasons to deny it anyway.

If it were purely for utilitarian safety and educational purposes, that would imply a much smaller footprint of their time spent consuming that information than is typical of those that listen/watch to these podcasts and shows.

Most people if they want to stay safe/live-long just need to socialize frequently, eat healthy, get enough sleep, and look both ways when crossing the street/drive safely. Because people don’t do those things and they end up dead more often as a result of those things than axe murderers.

There other reasons other than the dead person themselves to keep a taboo on necrophilia:

1. As stated, the dead person has survivors who likely would find that psychologically distressing/traumatic.
2. Normalization of necrophilia has other unsettling implications directly and indirectly related on a societal level.
3. Disease.

Probably some stuff I’m forgetting.

No it wouldn’t.

Yeah, its insensitive to the survivors. That’s definitely another issue, and pestering them for “juicy information” is pretty gross and callous.

(The dead person doesn’t care though, they’re dead.)

I feel torn. On one hand, whatever floats your boat.

One the other, I think my biggest issue is that this stuff makes people more afraid of their fellow human beings because of incidents that make up like 0.0001% of all deaths.

You’re more likely to die early if you are constantly alone/asocial for a number of causes. Worrying about being murdered and chopped up into pieces by some nutcase is an extremely irrational fear to cultivate. And I know that these shows do that: They do it to me every time I watch/listen to one.
