], regarding and , what makes you think that drmarkgriffiths source from ] passes ]? It does not. In fact, it does not even pass ]. You stated, "''As it is an infrequent fetish, it is difficult to find direct academic studies pertaining to it.''" That should tell you something. Furthermore, as made clear at the ] article, women fantasizing about being sexual with giants is rare. Macrophilia is rare and doesn't have much in the way of academic sources either. Do stop adding microphilia to the list. ] (]) 16:56, 16 December 2017 (UTC)
According to the alphabetical style of this list, underneath the existing entry for "sophophilia" and above the entry for "sthenolagnia" I request the addition of "splanchnophilia."

While this paraphilia is very uncommon, it does exist, and was used by forensic psychiatrist "Dr. Park Dietz" in reference to Jeffrey Dahmer. ] (]) 19:15, 4 September 2024 (UTC)

How would you call the fetish involving striped clothes? (not "stripper" related, I mean keeping the clothes on and these clothes have say, black and white stripes). It would be easier to find a partner if I could google this by its name if the name exists of course. <!-- Template:Unsigned IP --><small class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding ] comment added by ] (]) 15:13, 24 May 2018 (UTC)</small> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

I see you did include hebephilia, but, as indicated by what I stated above, it's not on the list for a reason.

:], no problem, I figured it out. I went back and looked for other sources. However, I am noticing that others on the list are using sources such as articles from The Guardian (Oculophilia). I also noticed one did not leave a source but did link another Misplaced Pages article (Pyrophilia), is this sufficient? ] (]) 05:21, 13 June 2018 (UTC)

:::] I'm a little bit confused, I looked at the ] page. Both of those sources I used were found in published journals, and were listed as peer-reviewed, so not original research.

::::], ] is not the same thing as ]. See what WP:MEDRS states about primary sources, secondary sources and literature reviews. Also, I don't work in "what about" terms. If something on the list is only sourced to the '']'', then remove it. ] (]) 05:39, 13 June 2018 (UTC)

A revert I'm unhappy with

I added the following at the outset: Recently-coined names for paraphilias (abasiophilia, algolagnia, etc.) typically have a Greek origin.

This was reverted by EvergreenFir because it was not documented.

Documentation is not required for items easily verifiable. Anyone who goes to a dictionary can see these terms are coined from Greek. Is a source saying so really required?

According to the alphabetical style of this list, underneath the existing entry for "sophophilia" and above the entry for "sthenolagnia" I request the addition of "splanchnophilia." The definition of this word is "a sexual arousal in response to viscera and internal organs."

Spectrophilia

Why isn't spectrophilia in the list? 2601:282:1C02:5700:0:0:0:D488 (talk) 23:13, 6 September 2024 (UTC)

"Focus of erotic interest" is listed, but no corresponding paraphilia name.

Under the S section, a paraphilia is described as being a fetish for "Nonliving objects." However, the corresponding paraphilia name is only listed as the broad "Sexual fetishism," and redirects to that page. The correct name might be "objectophilia."
