Paraphilia examples

The list given in the article has poor grammar but its main issue is the seemingly-random selection of paraphilias and other terms. Should another section be created for some examples of paraphilias, or is this not necessary? There's no such section in the enWiki article on paraphilias, but probably only because it has its own article [1].

In addition, fetishism is in the list of terms but it's said in the enWiki article that "there is no broad scientific consensus for definitive boundaries between what are considered "unconventional sexual interests", kinks, fetishes, and paraphilias" - in my opinion, this should be mentioned earlier and they shouldn't simply be lumped into an examples list at the end of the article.

I am quite pessimistic about the prospect of improving these articles as well, when there seems to be a huge shortage of specialised editors who could carry out the work. Steven1991 (talk) 02:11, 4 February 2025 (UTC)Reply
