::There may be some common ground, but my own idea is that the use of a different term somewhat fulfils my argument. A DSM defined paraphilia could be noted as such - even in the context of it generally being seen as a fetish, but should be kept apart from attraction to stuffed toys et cetera. Probable or demonstrable nature or nurture categories are probably better than medical classifications, at least for an encyclopedia. ] 17:12, 30 May 2008 (UTC)


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?

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.

Mukadderat and I are debating whether to include the terms ''pedohebephilia'' and ''gynandromorphophilia.'' Both appear in peer-reviewed journals, as noted below. I feel they should be included, as they meet WP criteria for mention (WP:V to an RS). Mukadderat feels that they are neologisms that do not merit mention. Anyone else have any input to provide?

:I don't have any input on the specific terms, but only a general observation. It's easy to create new words in English; words that are "real" in that the meaning can be easily understood even though they are neologisms. It's especially true for the endings -philia and -phobia where you can create new "tags" for a concept just by combining words. Some of these new words will be used in one paper and then never again, some will be reused an eventually find their way into common usage. So, in my opinion, it isn't enough that a term is mentioned in ''one'' paper. It should, still in my opinion, be used in several places, and if you can find a term in a university-level textbook it's almost certainly relevant. ] (]) 14:26, 1 July 2008 (UTC)

A revert I'm unhappy with

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.

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).

Transvestophilia

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)
