Necrophilia seems to me to hold the same appeal as rape.
It is essentially selfishness reduced to its 'purest' form.
No thought is devoted to the partner, because there is no partner there. (Not in the traditional sense, anyway.)
This in turn means the rapist/necro-ist can devote ALL of his mental faculties to pleasing ONLY himself.
So it can be seen as just a more elaborate form of masterbation, if examined through this lens.
Personally, i am all for polyamory. (Consenting adults and all that.)
The difficulty arrises when kids and property is thrown in the mix.
As for the 'ICK' factor in general, ther are really only a couple of social tabboos that are nearly universal.
1: Cannibalism
2: Rape
3: Murder
4: Incest
And even then, -aside from rape- you could argue exceptions to all of them. But as a generalization, i think these things will always be illeagal, and therefore not openly practiced. Everything else, is open to modification as advertisers see fit.
