First of all, no posting religious comments about how stuff is wrong in this thread. Of course everyone is allowed to state their opinion, but Christians and other religious people who just post about premarital sex, same sex relationships and other deviations from the standardized common norm is wrong because their biblething says so, tends to ruin the healthy discussion. So please, if you have nothing else to say, don't bother saying it. I talked with Strop about getting this topic up and running, so... I don't think I'm not allowed to, though some of you youngsters may find it offensive. Please, if weird things about sex disturbs you, stop reading now. Kthnxbai.
Now, the actual topic of this thread is pretty wide. Heavy reading about what paraphilias are: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paraphilia But to sum up (info taken from Wikipedia's article): * Exhibitionism: the recurrent urge or behavior to expose one's genitals to an unsuspecting person. (Can also be the recurrent urge or behavior to perform sexual acts in a public place, or in view of unsuspecting persons.) * Fetishism: the use of inanimate objects to gain sexual excitement. Partialism refers to fetishes specifically involving nonsexual parts of the body (for example, feet). * Frotteurism: the recurrent urges of behavior of touching or rubbing against a nonconsenting person. * Pedophilia: a psychological disorder in which an adult experiences a sexual preference for prepubescent children, or has engaged in child sexual abuse. * Sexual Masochism: the recurrent urge or behavior of wanting to be humiliated, beaten, bound, or otherwise made to suffer for sexual pleasure. * Sexual Sadism: the recurrent urge or behavior involving acts in which the pain or humiliation of a person is sexually exciting. * Transvestic fetishism: arousal from "clothing associated with members of the opposite sex." * Voyeurism: the recurrent urge or behavior to observe an unsuspecting person who is naked, disrobing or engaging in sexual activities, or may not be sexual in nature at all.
For anyone that do not "suffer" from a paraphilia, most of that can probably sound - grotesque... But many people in this world have one or more paraphilias.
Actually, just to annoy you all with a wall of text and ****s, here's the List of paraphilias as found here. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_paraphilias I think many of them are extremely gross, but most people have at least one of the listed. Personally, I have seven.

Also, sorry about the ****s. It's that word for having intercourse with someone without their consent, you all know it.
Let the comments roll in! As with the Homosexuality thread, there is no particular direction for this topic to take. Just share your thoughts or something. Please keep comments on-topic and lighthearted. Flaming will not be tolerated.
How does anyone get to know about Thor? But yeah, you, Klaushouse and me probably knows due to old connections to the furry fandom... *wants to know how millahnna knows too*
Wee, link to more or less interesting wall of text on the subject~
Btw, am I the only one who have noticed how a wall-of-text thread starter reduces the amount of spam resembling posts?
I think I was the one who told Klaushouse about Thor, to be honest...
...yeah. I probably did. How I found out about it is for me to know and for you to speculate
On that note, this thread is safe from spam due to something I call the tl;dr phenomenon.
Your link appears to be to a summary of the Merck Manual's summary of the matter which would be a summary of the DSM-IV TR's guidelines. Note how limited its scope is. A number of people are interested in rectifying this...I'm one of them.
I know about Thor due to entirely too much time spent on the internet since about 1993 or so. I'm 32 and a chick nerd. That equals many, many years of time googling (and I guess pre-googling) things I really wish I hadn't.
Voyeurism involves the act of spying upon or covertly watching subjects in ordinarily private situations. Insisting on peering with binoculars through the window at the girl across the street while she's changing is voyeurism.
Strop that is right in an extent, but I wouldn't go that far ._.
Voyeurism, just plainly means member of opposite sex undressing. Every single person is turned on by it, the fact that a guy would go to lengths to use binoculars across the street would be called a pervert.
ShintetsuWA, I'm of course referring to voyeurism as the pathology, here. I'm not sure it'd be called voyeurism if it weren't for that. I mean sure a sneak peek here and there is probably common, yeah. I mean to say that I doubt that you would be properly called a voyeur for wanting to take a second look.
In case no one has pointed it out, you're looking for rule 34:
Already quoted and moved on.
Hmm. I need to google tl;dr...
tl;dr means "Too long; didn't read". Fairly self-explanatory.
@ millahnna: How could you regret looking up the magnificent thor!? Maybe you got it from Encyclopedia Dramatica?
lol who doesn't have fetishes or wat ever that long word is lol.... It's just a way of giving yourself pleasure... so to speak. LOL anyone watch 2 girls one cup... that has to do with stuff like this... My friend showed it to me and i almost barfed.. But if your in the mood for something like that, thats a good place to look. XD
Anyways nowadays i think fedishes go a lil bit to far. I understand the feeling of like "Dammm her legs are nice", or " I love her feet".... Just the feeling of parts of the body making you feel "turned on" (oops i though i could go through this with out saying a rlly naughty word XD) Anyways these days, people have taken these "thoughts" into a whole world that seems to keep going deeper. Its gotten to the point where if you search up feet on google, it comes up with sum chick licking someone elses foot. (Most likely it will be way worse than that, im just trying to give an example that won't make to many yung uns disgusted).
Beastiality, i can see where it comes from, just cant see how ppl can do it. No offense or anything its just the way i feel.
Interesting comments, nonconformist, I have the following responses:
* Two girls one cup is a terrible example! At least for the purposes of this thread. I do know people who are into that kind of stuff but I honestly don't know how they would react because the presentation was just so dramatised...
* ...which has me wondering about the statement "I can see where it comes from, just can't see how people can do it", or vice-versa. What is it about the distinction between doing something and understanding how one can do something? Others seem to be unable to do this...because they can't imagine themselves doing something they can't imagine anybody else doing something either.
If you've read about Hume's ethics, you might see what I'm getting at.
