Sexual preference disorder

Classification according to ICD-10
F65.8 Sexual preference disorder
ICD-10 online (WHO version 2019)

The term is often used in the sense of "anonymous and discreet rubbing in public places" such as in a crowded subway . However, this is not mandatory. If it often happens without the will of the other person, or if it develops into a preference that suppresses other behavior, it is considered paraphilia . In this case, frotteurism is classified in the ICD-10 under the code F65.8 as a disorder of sexual preference .

In Japan, it has grown to a noticeable size as a sexual harassment in the subway and is called a chikan . At rush hour there are already women's wagons. In Japan it is a topic that is chosen again and again for erotic role-playing games . It is also re-enacted with prostitutes in replica compartments of local trains in brothels.

Sexual practice

Pictorial representation of two men facing each other frontally who press their erect penises against each other. The man depicted on the right holds both penises with one hand. The excitement can be increased by moving this hand up and down or by rubbing the penises in some other way; this sexual practice is known as frot or (in a broader sense) frottage.

Frotteurism is sometimes referred to as frottage , also as a form of safer sex between people of the same sex or of the same sex, dressed or practiced naked. Direct rubbing without lubricant can cause skin irritation after a while and, in extreme cases, cause minor injuries, which limits absolute safety.

When two men rub their penises and / or testicles together, this sexual practice can be described by the abbreviation Frot . This specific expression is most popular in the English-speaking world, where it was also known as frictation . Due to the not small number of AIDS cases and out of concern over the death of his friend in 1995, the activist Bill Weintraub started an initiative in 1999 against the “cultural death grip” and the “cultural tyranny of anal intercourse ”, which is partly from the social point of view shows that non- penetrative sexual behavior is often not viewed as “real sex”. To this end, he published the article Frot: The Next Sexual Revolution in 2000 , where he propagated Frot as an antidote, created The Man2Man Alliance - Frot Men and another website under the name Heroic Homosex with reference to masculinity and heroic figures.

In the case of two women, the corresponding sexual practice is called tribady .
