Tertiary paraphilias are non-sexual and non-romantic paraphilias. I personally find it a very interesting topic.

Mine are blood, gore, extracted teeth, mold, bones, corpses, abandoned buildings, and probably some more that I’m forgetting. I can’t really explain why my attraction to those things feel paraphilic, but it does. It’s arousing, but not in a sexual way like my other paraphilias are. I do not posess romantic attraction towards anything.

    Technically my biastophilia is both, which, most people do not understand to begin with! Being a sex-repulsed (ace) biastophile is just very awkward and hard to explain. I’m also sensually into lace, silk, latex, and such, but I don’t know the paraphilic terms for them!!! Also my lipophila is physical but not sexual.

      Very cool :D

      Latex is Kommiphilia and Hypephilia is a paraphilia for fabrics, which you could use for silk and lace perhaps! I cannot find more specific ones.

      Lace is literally so pretty asadgfkjfaldfkl.

      Also I hadn’t considered a paraphilia could be both tertiary and sexual/romantic at the same time, but now that I think about it, it makes a lot of sense, and there are tertiary aspects to probably all of my paraphilias now that I think about it. Cool!

        Well, when I say ‘is both’ I did mean both non-romantic and non-sexual. I find it frustrating having my biastophilia being assumed as sexual, but nobody seems to understand how my mind has deconstructed it so that the acts of rape and sa are not being desired through the lens of sexuality. My lack of sexual attraction means any ‘visualization’ of this act is blurry, just two black ‘humanoid’ shapes interacting, or maybe more ‘audible’ at times. Although yes, my other paraphilias tend to go hand in hand with me being romance favorable and hypersensual.

          Oh I’m sorry 😳. I got confused by you saying both, because both non-sexual and non-romantic is what I was talking about initially as well. So that’s why I figured you meant both tertiary and sexual and/or romantic.

          But thank you for clarifying!
