List of paraphilias

This list of paraphilias is inspired by the Wikipedia paraphilia list and includes content from several sources that were previously used by members of paraphiliac communities. This list is meant to respond to a need for a resource that is inclusive of nonsexual paraphilias and free of medicalizing and stigmatizing language. Paraphilias are divided into kinks (attractions to activities), fetishes (attractions to objects and body parts), and attractions to beings. All other divisions and categories, given in this article, are approximate and made up by the author for simplicity of classification.

Kinks
This category includes attractions to activities.

Fetishes
This category includes attractions to nonsexual body parts (partialism) and inanimate objects (objectophilia).

Attractions To Beings
This category includes attractions to human and nonhuman beings.

Incest
This category includes preferences for different kinds of relatives. These terms should be regarded as inclusive of both blood relatives and chosen relatives.

Mixed Category
Paraphilias in this group include attractions to atypical beings with additional preference for objects, body parts, and activities.
