Abstract
It is still unclear whether some abnormalities of sexual function are true disorders or reflections of societal views. Paraphilias, particul arly those involving harm to others (e.g. paedophilia), are best treat ed by seeing how the sexual preference reflects more pervasive persona lity disturbance. The main advances have been in treatments for male e rectile dysfunction and the integration of treatment methods.
