Paraphilia is a condition in which the sexual excitement relies on fantasizing and/or participating in unusual sexual behaviors although the line between “normal” and “abnormal” has been disputed. The project aimed to explore which sexual fantasies and behaviors are common and uncommon in the general population. Furthermore, the relationship between sexual fantasies, sexual behaviors, and problematic pornography consumption was examined. Finally, the impact of gender was assessed. Analyses were conducted on a sample of 139 participants. Correlations were found between fantasies, behaviors, and problematic pornography consumption. Furthermore, gender differences were found for both sexual fantasies and problematic pornography consumption. Finally, multiple regression revealed that age, gender [Men], fantasies, and behaviors were significant predictor of problematic pornography consumption. Those findings are in-line with previous studies which highlighted that the threshold to consider a sexual practice as being abnormal needs to be reconsidered on the basis of self-reported fantasies and behaviors in the general population.

性欲倒错是一种性兴奋依赖于幻想和/或参与不寻常性行为的病症，尽管“正常”和“异常”之间的界限一直存在争议。该项目旨在探索哪些性幻想和行为在普通人群中常见和不常见。此外，还研究了性幻想、性行为和有问题的色情消费之间的关系。最后，评估了性别的影响。对 139 名参与者的样本进行了分析。研究人员发现幻想、行为和有问题的色情消费之间存在相关性。此外，在性幻想和有问题的色情消费方面也存在性别差异。最后，多元回归显示，年龄、性别[男性]、幻想和行为是有问题的色情消费的重要预测因素。这些发现与之前的研究一致，这些研究强调，需要根据普通人群自我报告的幻想和行为，重新考虑将性行为视为异常的门槛。
