Exhibitionism:
Exhibitionism is a paraphilic disorder characterized by the recurrent and intense urge to expose one's genitals to unsuspecting others, typically in public settings. The act is driven by sexual arousal derived from the shock or distress of the observer. Those with exhibitionism may seek thrill or gratification through this behavior, often risking legal consequences. Treatment involves psychotherapy, focusing on addressing underlying factors and developing healthier coping mechanisms. Legal interventions may also be necessary to ensure public safety and prevent harm to others.
