Nymph & Satyriasis Greek Myths to Words of Today
From Nymph to Nymphomania • The word Nymph comes from Greek mythology. Nymphs were females spirits typically associated with specific parts of nature such as the woods or water and bound to those areas as well. In Greek mythology Nymphs were free to associate sexually with whomever they pleased and were not bound by any sort of laws. The term "Nymphomania" was created in modern psychology in reference to a "desire to engage in human sexual behavior at a level high enough to be considered clinically significant. Another term known as "Nymphomaniac" is considered to be the person suffering from this disorder. Today in popular culture the term has been shortened to Nympho.
