I found a few credible references to the term, but the meaning is slightly different (i.e., arousal in a situation where the partner pretends to struggle). [1] OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 05:25, 19 October 2006 (UTC)

I've come across other variations on the above, where the arousal is generated by pretending to argue or get hostile with one's partner. Overall, these interpretations of "arousal by pretending to struggle" or "arousal by pretending to confront one's partner" seem more like types of foreplay rather than a true paraphilia, which is what the term seems to be describing (getting aroused by seeing someone fight, or being involved in a fight, or fetishizing fight-related accoutrements).
