| Abstract: | Most authors discuss sexual deviations (often called psychosexual abnormalities or perversions*1) under the general heading of neuroses or personality disorders. There appears to be a general consensus among psychiatrists that sexual deviations are ways in which sexual gratification is obtained, mainly or exclusively, without penile-vaginal intercourse. It is felt that the primary aims of sexuality are pleasure and reproduction and that this, at some stage, ought to include coitus between a male and female. A new definition is proposed in Part II. |
