Definitions

Disorders that include recurrent, intense sexually arousing fantasies, sexual urges, or behaviors generally involving nonhuman objects, suffering of oneself or partners, or children or other nonconsenting partners. The American Psychiatric Association notes that most atypical sexual interests, while possibly considered paraphilic, do not constitute a mental health problem and thus are not considered paraphilic disorders. For example, in a paraphilic disorder, the psychological distress one feels about their paraphilic desire must be distinct from the general societal or cultural disapproval of such a desire.
