Abstract
This paper critiques changes in the diagnositic criteria for the paraphilias as set out in the DSM-5. In addition to general areas of concern, five specific problem areas are identified. This includes: definitions by exclusion; culturally based criteria; ignoring etiology; minimizing consent issues; and lack of field trials. A suggestion to improve the diagnostic criteria is offered.Entities:
