Exhibitionism is the recurrent urge to expose the genitals to a stranger or to an unsuspecting person. Sexual excitement occurs in anticipation of the exposure, and orgasm is brought about by masturbation during or after the event. In almost 100 percent of cases, those with exhibitionism are men exposing themselves to women.

The dynamic of men with exhibitionism is to assert their masculinity by showing their penises and by watching the victims’ reactions fright, surprise, and disgust. In this situation, men unconsciously feel castrated and impotent. Wives of men with exhibitionism often substitute for the mothers to whom the men were excessively attached during childhood. In other related paraphilias, the central themes involve derivatives of looking or showing.  Be the health people now!
