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)

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)

Autohomoeroticism and Autosapphoeroticism

These are usually paired up with AAP and AGP, but they're extremely prevalent in the modern age and I believe they should be added to the master list. 2804:14D:9081:8545:40BF:6785:4E:D9FF (talk) 14:48, 13 May 2023 (UTC)
