P.S. DSM-V is not due out until 2012 (but who knows when it will actually appear). Does this posting earn me the TIPSTER of the week (only kidding...I hope)? . ....Scott ________________________________ From: Beth Benoit [[email protected]] Sent: Monday, August 10, 2009 7:26 PM To: Teaching in the Psychological Sciences (TIPS) Subject: Re: [tips] weirdness Since I teach a course in Human Sexuality, I did a little follow-up search on this story, and found this story which includes a documentary about this young woman. http://www.digitaljournal.com/article/277168 "Objectum sexuality" is not unheard of apparently, but I don't see it in the DSM-IV (I don't have V yet - does anyone who has V see it there?), nor in my textbook on Human Sexuality. It seems to have some of the characteristics of fetishism, but doesn't fit comfortably in that definition either.
