eMedicine: Paraphilias - Paraphilia is a means for some people to
release sexual energy or frustration. The act commonly is followed by
arousal and orgasm, usually achieved by masturbation and fantasy.
-
Exhibitionism - Involves intense, recurrent and sexually arousing

in turn, translate into putting this fantasy into action and engaging in
these behaviors. However, a key feature of this need is that the
individual be a stranger or unsuspecting. PsychNet.UK.
-
Fetishism - Fetishism is the use of an inanimate object or a specific
part of the body for physical or mental sexual stimulation. This sexual
behavior is widespread and takes many forms, from benign (a preference for
the partner's wearing of lingerie before sex) to vicious (a rapist cutting
a lock of hair from the victim for use in masturbation). PsychNet.UK.

Frotteurism - Frotteurism involves intense, recurrent fantasies of,
and/or actual touching and rubbing the genitalia against a non-consenting
