Paraphilic Disorders 

If they committed the crime though then they should be locked up

@@christianciv1998 what kind of crime when a person does not know that whatever hes doing is not acceptable by the law but is also outside the norm

@dickmcstiff it depends on the situation this is paraphilic DISORDER they cant act normally do you get that compare to someone who planned to kill someone or rob someone

yes, these are mental health problems.

If you're aroused by the idea of talking with a phone sex line operator specifically for the fact that it's a phone sex line operator, then probably yes. Paraphilias in themselves are not disordered but can become disordered if they cause distress, financial and social ruin, or harm to others. Paraphilias cannot be cured but the disorder stemming from the paraphilia can be treated. Often times, what appeara to be sex addiction is not sex addiction. Males masturbate for stress relief, so I would try to see what's stressing you out, if there's something you're procastinating on, a family member that you lost, or some other stressor in your life. Masturbation is perfectly healthy, and paraphilias most times are harmless. But if you're spending lots of money on phone sex operators and that's the only way you're able to become aroused, I would seek some help.

@kelly Kelly paraphilia /ˌparəˈfɪlɪə/ nounPsychiatry noun: paraphilia a condition characterized by abnormal sexual desires, typically involving extreme or dangerous activities.

no

Yeh

I'm guessing it can be if it causes so much distress the person stops enjoying life

Really?

It's simple. If a man puts on woman's clothing he has a disorder. If he puts on woman's clothing and says he's a woman then it's not a disorder. Politically correct psychiatry...

@@emitizmo7456 yes only if it's sexualized and made kinky it's a disorder. Cross dressing is ok when wholesome.

@@unclemurphy3552 Transvestism is not disordered. Paraphilias are not inherently disordered. Stop spreading misinformation.

@@GalaxyGal- then why they called disorders

No, as far as i m aware homosexuality is not included or even seen as a dissorder

@@liv7611 human cleverness. Biological parameters manipulation. Even physiological rise of blood pressure and sugar levels are considered disease and trated with elaborate proscription and medical tests. Lack of moral values.

No because paraphillias include things that are harmful.
