Sexual deviance is in some way a socially constructed phenomenon that shifts over time with public opinion. The various forms of sexual deviancy are grouped and defined utilizing the DSM-IV descriptions (American Psychitric Association, 1994), because this clasification it is the most frequently used in forensic settings. Adult sexual assault is an essential focus of forensic psychology, variously diagnosed as sexual sadism, paraphilia NOS (not otherwise specified), or undiagnosed. Other forms of sexual deviance presented here include voyeurism, exhibitionism, frotteurism, sexual sadism, rape and pedophilia. Each category is briefly explored through its etiology, course, epidemiology, assessment and treatment (Sbraga, 2004). Sexual sadism is said to be a disorder in which sexual satisfaction is reached and causing another suffering, psysical or mental pain through humiliation. In this article, its about addressing some theoretical aspects regarding the sexual deviance, but also the exemplification of a parafilic category, namely sexual sadism.

Hypoactive sexual desire disorder in men may occur in the context of poor sexual functioning, secondary to sexual dysfunction or a state of sexual dissatisfaction, or may may correspond to poor functioning of the couple. Thus, these multiple factors can generate a hypoactive sexual desire issue. The disorder of desire may also mean cognitions and / or persistently or recurrently reduced(absent) sexual/ erotic fantasies. Worldwide prevalence of sexual desire disorder in men is occasionally 6% for those 8-24 years old; significantly 41% for those 66-74 years old, and persistently 1,8% for those 16-44 years old. The disorder may emerge from the beginning of the sexual life or begin after a period of relatively normal sexual function. Keywords: hypoactive sexual desire disorder, s-on, therapy, testing, evaluation, sexual disorders.

Vaginismus is a hidden problem because it is not discussed enough among professionals or inside the family. Consequently, the treatment of this problem is done secretly and by people who are not professionals, not to mention that they do not know what vaginismus really is. Vaginismus causes a woman’s pelvic floor muscles to contract at the attempt of vaginal penetration, making the vagina narrower and tighter. These muscle spasms are involuntary, and women with vaginismus often have trouble with any type of vaginal penetration, such as vaginal intercourse, tampon insertion, and gynecological exams. Penetration, when possible, is usually quite painful and causes great anxiety. For some women, intercourse is impossible. We present series of three cases treated in our Institute after a long-time treatment by others. All of them came et our Institute after a long period of time seeking alternative help and hiding the problem. Much work needs to be done on the sex education of the population in order to make them aware that they can discuss sexual problems freely. Physicians and other health personnel should also include a sexual history as an equal part of the medical examination.

Frotteurism disorder or frotteurism is one of the paraphilic disorders that cause sexual arousal. It is the act of touching or rubbing the genitals against a person in a sexual manner, without their consent, to obtain sexual pleasure or to reach orgasm. Those who practice frotteurism find pleasure in having a private sexual experience in a public setting.

The first physiological response to effective sexual stimulation, produced by a source of physical or mental stimulation, is the erection of the penis. Erection usually occurs within 3-8 seconds of the onset of arousal. When sexual tension and erection reach a certain level in the presence of the partner, the need for interference appears. The intensity of the erection may increase or decrease until it disappears, whether the arousal is prolonged or not. The complicated anatomical apparatus is regulated by a nervous mechanism, just as complex, being dependent to a remarkable extent on psychic influences. By the strong interweaving of these two components - psychological and functional - the sexual function is subject to changes. Erectile dysfunction, when it occurs, is obvious because, although there may be libido, the lack of an erection makes it impossible to perform sexual intercourse. Erectile dysfunction should not be confused with isolated or occasional failures to obtain or maintain a penile erection. They do not constitute a condition or disease that justifies medical attention and should be perceived as absolutely normal. The vast majority of men face such an episode at some point in their lives. One can speak of erectile dysfunction in the case of a recurrent or persistent inability to obtain an erection or to maintain it long enough to complete sexual intercourse, which lasts at least three months. It is especially important because in a normal activity, without erection, intercourse, ejaculation and orgasm cannot take place. (Pathologically, premature ejaculation can occur, without an erection, in the form of pollution!)
