A lot of paraphilias listed here are autosexual modifiers on existing orientations/paraphilias (zoophilia vs autozoophilia, acrotomophilia vs apotemnophilia, etc). Maybe it would be helpful to have a more exhaustive list of autosexualities and erotic target identity inversions (ETIIs) in an article dedicated to them. ] (]) 08:14, 26 November 2023 (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?

Attraction towards trans people is not a paraphilia

Stating that attraction towards trans men or trans women is a paraphilia is pretty obviously transphobic. Attraction towards, say, intersex people isn’t included which suggests that attraction towards trans people is some sort of fetish, which is very transphobic rhetoric. 89.190.193.149 (talk) 03:07, 16 January 2023 (UTC)

@89.190.193.149 I think "androphilia" (attraction to males) and "gynephilia" (attraction to females) should be added in order to make it clear that the attraction to trans people is not necessarily different to attraction to cis people. 2804:14D:9081:4084:40BF:6785:4E:D9FF (talk) 14:29, 13 May 2023 (UTC)
Paraphilia are atypical (irregular) sexual interests. Would you call transsexuals typical or atypical? Considering they actually usually don't wish to be transsexual but have to become this by surgery because they wish to become of the other (typical) gender. And considering this. What would you call people attracted to transgenders (instead of the man or woman this transgender wishes be), typical or atypical? 163.158.1.136 (talk) 19:37, 30 July 2023 (UTC)
Contrary to what is asserted in this article, paraphilias are not necessarily atypical (sexual partialism for women's bare breasts is very common indeed, but it's still a paraphilia), what they are is acquired: that is, not innate (a person isn't born with any particular paraphilia, they acquire it over time; even if the acquisition occurs very early in their life). Now, if a person came into the world with a sexual predisposition to find all genders attractive, and then subsequently found that their attraction specialised in trans people only, the initial attraction would have been innate, but the specialisation would have been the acquired part of their specific sexuality. There is nothing atypical in this, nor is there any sense in which the paraphilia is abnormal simply by virtue of being a paraphilia. Nuttyskin (talk) 02:45, 2 August 2023 (UTC)

Autohybistropyilia

autohybistropyilia is the attraction to oneself as a serial killer. This should be added in order to make it a more complete list. 2804:14D:9081:4084:40BF:6785:4E:D9FF (talk) 14:27, 13 May 2023 (UTC)

If you're going to clutter the place up with jawbreakers, at least learn how to spell them properly. The word you mean is autohybistrophilia; though I dispute if anyone actually has this as a paraphilia: simply fancying yourself in the mirror, wearing dark clothes and a ski mask isn't quite the same. It might help you feel aroused; but not even a Death Row inmate considers that to be their principal sexual identity.
Nuttyskin (talk) 02:54, 2 August 2023 (UTC)
I'm an autohybistrophile. It's real.
If "hybistrophilia" is on the list, why not autohybistrophilia? I'd argue that few people consider being hybistrophiles their primary sexual identity, yet it's still a real thing. AutohybistrophileFan (talk) 10:38, 30 October 2023 (UTC)

Suggestions

Why the following one aren't here or did i missed them?

"Inflation/Expansion" - pleasure: Imagining body parts growing at incredible size (generally breasts, belly, rear, genitalia)

"Hyperpregnancy" - pleasure: Imagining it is possible to fill infinitely with semem in order to get gigantic belly and larhe amount of embryos.

"Furry/animal roleplay" - pleasure: Wearing a fur suit looking like an animal and having an interest into being and acting like an animal.

"Slime" - pleasure: having sex with a slime woman or men.

"Fantasy" - pleasure: loving and wanting a relationship with fantasy or surrealist beings like succubus, elves, dwarves, angels, trolls, demons, monsters... 2A01:E0A:8DF:C080:FD53:61DD:D167:2FBB (talk) 17:36, 13 June 2023 (UTC)

Your first two suggestions are covered by macrophilia; your third by plushophilia (or autozoophilia); your fourth by wet and messy fetishism; and your fifth by teratophilia.

What are paedophilia and zoosadism doing in these lists

Paedophilia and zoosadism are sexual desires aimed at real non-consensual sex. In this sense they rank as sexual disorders and not as paraphilia!163.158.1.136 (talk) 19:40, 30 July 2023 (UTC)

Paraphilias are capable of manifesting as serious psychosexual disorders, they're not all completely innocuous: it depends on the pathology of the particular individual.
Nuttyskin (talk) 03:00, 2 August 2023 (UTC)

ETII article?

A lot of paraphilias listed here are autosexual modifiers on existing orientations/paraphilias (zoophilia vs autozoophilia, acrotomophilia vs apotemnophilia, etc). Maybe it would be helpful to have a more exhaustive list of autosexualities and erotic target identity inversions (ETIIs) in an article dedicated to them.
