How do you define/measure “weird” (and strength of “want”, for that matter)?
I don’t have anything more concrete than “seemingly not in the category of things humans tend to intrinsically want”. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
To try to give a concrete answer, I’d say suicide by an otherwise-healthy human is the weirdest desire I know of.
Yeah, that’s a good example and brought to my mind obvious-in-retrospect [body integrity dysphoria]/xenomelia where (otherwise seemingly psychologically normal?) people want to get rid of some part of their body. (I haven’t looked into it that much but AFAIR it’s probably something going somewhat precisely wrong with the body schema?)
