  • Themes of SM Expression Charles Moser and Peggy J
    3 Themes of SM Expression Charles Moser and Peggy J. Kleinplatz SM (also known as BDSM, i.e. Bondage and Discipline, Dominance and Submission and Sadism and Masochism) is a term used to describe a variety of sexual behaviours that have an implicit or explicit power differential as a significant aspect of the erotic interaction. Of course there are other sexual interactions or behaviours that have an implicit power differential, but that power differential is not generally eroticized in non-SM interactions. Sex partners may even disagree if a particular interaction or relationship constitutes SM, each seeing it from a different perspective. The boundaries between SM and non-SM interactions are not always clear, which is why self-definition is crucial for understanding SM phenomena. Colloquially the set of SM inclinations has been referred to deris- ively as an interest in ‘whips and chains’, but is much more complex and varied than suggested by that description. Practitioners use both numerous academic terms and jargon (e.g. S/M, B/D, WIITWD [i.e. what it is that we do], D/s, Bondage, Leather, Kink) to refer to these interests. They have been labelled controversially in the psychiatric liter- ature with diagnostic labels such as paraphilia, sadomasochism, sexual sadism, sexual masochism and fetishism. There is no evidence that the descriptions in the psychiatric literature resemble the individuals who self-identify as SM participants or that SM participants understand the implications of adopting the psychiatric terms as self-descriptors. Judging from the proliferation of SM themes in sexually explicit media, references in mainstream books, film and the news media, as well as academic studies and support groups, it is reasonable to conclude that SM is an important sexual interest for a significant number of indi- viduals.

  • Use of DSM Paraphilia Diagnoses in Sexually Violent Predator Commitment Cases
    SPECIAL ARTICLE Use of DSM Paraphilia Diagnoses in Sexually Violent Predator Commitment Cases Michael B. First, MD, and Robert L. Halon, PhD There is legitimate concern in the psychiatric community about the constitutionality of sexually violent predator (SVP) commitment statutes. Such constitutionality depends on the requirement that a sexual offender have a mental abnormality that makes him commit violent predatory sex offenses and reflects almost exclusively a concern for public safety, with little regard for notions of clinical sensibility or diagnostic accuracy. However, given that mental health experts’ diagnostic opinions are, and will continue to be, important to the triers of fact in regard to the application of the SVP statutes, we describe valid means of making a DSM-IV-TR paraphilic diagnosis. We also provide a three-step approach for the judicious application of the diagnosis in the context of SVP commitment evaluations that emphasizes the importance of not making a paraphilia diagnosis based solely on the sexual offenses themselves. Finally, we discuss the appropriate use of a paraphilia NOS diagnosis in SVP cases.

  • List of Paraphilias
    List of paraphilias Paraphilias are sexual interests in objects, situations, or individuals that are atypical. The American Psychiatric Association, in its Paraphilia Diagnostic and Statistical Manual, Fifth Edition (DSM), draws a Specialty Psychiatry distinction between paraphilias (which it describes as atypical sexual interests) and paraphilic disorders (which additionally require the experience of distress or impairment in functioning).[1][2] Some paraphilias have more than one term to describe them, and some terms overlap with others. Paraphilias without DSM codes listed come under DSM 302.9, "Paraphilia NOS (Not Otherwise Specified)". In his 2008 book on sexual pathologies, Anil Aggrawal compiled a list of 547 terms describing paraphilic sexual interests. He cautioned, however, that "not all these paraphilias have necessarily been seen in clinical setups. This may not be because they do not exist, but because they are so innocuous they are never brought to the notice of clinicians or dismissed by them. Like allergies, sexual arousal may occur from anything under the sun, including the sun."[3] Most of the following names for paraphilias, constructed in the nineteenth and especially twentieth centuries from Greek and Latin roots (see List of medical roots, suffixes and prefixes), are used in medical contexts only. Contents A · B · C · D · E · F · G · H · I · J · K · L · M · N · O · P · Q · R · S · T · U · V · W · X · Y · Z Paraphilias A Paraphilia Focus of erotic interest Abasiophilia People with impaired mobility[4] Acrotomophilia

Examples include, but are not limited to, telephone scatolo­ gia (obscene phone calls), necro philia (corpses), partialism (exclusive foclls on part of body), zoophilia (animals), coprophilia (feces), kUsmaphilia (enemas), and urophilia (u rine) . Gender Identity Disorders Gender Identity Disorder Diagnost ic Feat ures There are tw o com ponents o f Gender Iden ti ty Disorder, both of which must be presen t to make the d iagnosis. There must be evidence o f a strong and persistent cross-gender iden tification, which is the desire to be, or the insistence that one is, of the other sex (Criterion A). This cross-gend er id entifica tion must not merely be a de­ sire for any perceived cultural advantages of being the other sex. There mus t also be evid ence of persistent d isco mfort about one's assigned sex or a sense of inappropri­ ateness in the gender role of that sex (Cri terion B). The diagnosis is not mad e if the individual has a concu rrent physical intersex condition (e.g., partial androgen insen­ sitivity syndrome or congenital adrenal hyperplasia) (Criterion C). To make the diag­ nosis, there must be evid ence of clinically significant d istress or impairment in social, occupational, or other import<1nt areas o f functioning (Criterion D). In boys, the cross-gender id entific ation is manifested by a marked p reoccu pation with traditionally fem inine activities.
