Abstract
Sexual dysfunctions and paraphilias, or sexual deviations, are seen as two different types of problems, and are separately classified in dia gnostic schemes. This paper points out the links between the two. Para philias are related to sexual dysfunctions in several ways. These link s are explored and illustrated The implications of these links for sex ual dysfunction treatment are discussed.
