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?

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.

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)

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.

Ailurophilia links to an article about the platonic love of cats

Also, a potential sexual attraction to cats would be covered under zoophilia. 217.180.201.235 (talk) 03:49, 8 December 2023 (UTC)

Ray Blanchard's typology

I feel like autogynephilia and autoandrophilia are a poor fit for this page. They are, I would argue, pseudo-scientific concepts invented by Ray Blanchard to explain the existence of transgender people. I do not think they are legitimate paraphilias in and of themselves. 217.180.201.235 (talk) 16:46, 5 April 2024 (UTC)
