Paraphilic disorders
The sexually victimized and non-sexually victimized disorders exhibit differences. Paraphillias according to DSM-IV is categorized as intense feelings of sexual arousal and suffering or humiliation of one's partner. Victimizing paraphilic disorders are more harmful because people undergoing such psychological problem are unable to control their urge. They indulge in practices that cause the victimization of others. Children are victims of such disorders. People who develop such disorders exhibit high risks of targeting other humans that include females and children. Victimizing paraphilia disorder is more common among males. The evidence suggests that victims of such disorder normally target children having ages of less than six years. The main difference is of mutual consent. The victimizing paraphilic disorders involve no mutual consent of partners.
Non-victimizing paraphilic disorders motivate individuals to fulfil their sexual urges by relying on human after obtaining their mutual consent. People who develop such disorders are unable to control their sexual urges and use mutual consent of partners for their sexual drives. This is categorized as less risky for others. Humans are not victims of such sexual aggressive behaviors because they agree on such a sexual relationship. Such disorder poses risks for other humans including women and girls. However, the behavior is risky for the person and it deteriorates the personality of people.
DSM-5 recognizes eight common types of paraphilic disorders that include; fetishistic disorder, transvestic disorder, sexual masochism, sexual sadism, pedophilic disorder, frotteuristic disorder, voyeuristic disorder and exhibitionistic disorder. Each disorder is linked to elevated sexual desires with minor changes in characteristics. These disorders undermine the mental health of the people and affect their personality development negatively. Paraphilic disorders are coercive and victimizing because people who suffer from such disease use other humans for attaining their sexual desire.
