Talk:List of paraphilias

A revert I'm unhappy with

edit

I added the following at the outset: Recently-coined names for paraphilias (abasiophilia, algolagnia, etc.) typically have a Greek origin.

This was reverted by EvergreenFir because it was not documented.

Documentation is not required for items easily verifiable. Anyone who goes to a dictionary can see these terms are coined from Greek. Is a source saying so really required?

Fictophilia is not considered a paraphilia, according to the source cited.

edit

The source does not specify that fictoromanticism or fictophilia is considered a psychological paraphilia. In fact, it states that it is currently not listed as one of these, and that not enough is known to consider it one. This entry should be removed from the list of paraphilias.

Source text: "Second, the present intention is not to propose fictophilia as a problem or a disorder. At the time of writing, fictophilia is not recognized or proposed as a specific diagnostic condition by the World Health Organization (ICD-11) or the American Psychiatric Association (DSM-5) (but see ‘paraphilia’ in both manuals). Our findings do not indicate a need to change the current state of affairs. GrilledSoup (talk) 20:22, 19 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

Transvestophilia

edit

The description for it shouldn't be "A cross-dressing partner", considering it redirects to "Attraction to transgender people". Cross-dressing doesnt make you trans. I think that either this should have the description changed, or make a new section thing for it Smirkjuice (talk) 01:23, 16 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

Semi-protected edit request on 4 September 2024

edit

According to the alphabetical style of this list, underneath the existing entry for "sophophilia" and above the entry for "sthenolagnia" I request the addition of "splanchnophilia." The definition of this word is "a sexual arousal in response to viscera and internal organs." While this paraphilia is very uncommon, it does exist, and was used by forensic psychiatrist "Dr. Park Dietz" in reference to Jeffrey Dahmer. Kibblecat (talk) 19:15, 4 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

Why isn't spectrophilia in the list? 2601:282:1C02:5700:0:0:0:D488 (talk) 23:13, 6 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
