Kids playing cops and robbers is NOT kink, Lux Alptraum…
… and quoting a post-doctoral social justice psychotherapist like Witherspoon does not make your article “science.”
Leave innocent child’s play out of your sex positive self help agenda, lest you give your readers the impression that you’re inviting them to sexualize prepubescent children.
In the meantime, you’d do better to read some of Charles Moser’s writing on paraphilia and include his work in your article before you email to ask him to comment on yours. Should you wander into a library, you might discover Moser’s views on recent changes to paraphilia and paraphilic disorder codified by the APA in the DSM-5.
Allow me to summarize Moser’s conclusions: The APA guidelines on paraphilia that you cite in your article are logically inconsistent, self-contradictory, and devoid of clinical benefit to patients.
In Moser’s view, distinguishing between “fetish and a fetishistic disorder,” reveals more about the APA’s socio-political agenda than it does about the science of kink.
