easier for children to describe abuse.

neither, but are driven by the arousal they feel at the thought of being a woman.

Attraction to both same- and opposite-sex sexual partners.
Erotophobia
Learned negative reaction to or attitude about sexual activity, perhaps developed as a result of negative
or even traumatic event, such as rape.
Exhibitionism
Refers to intentional, inappropriate exposure of the genitalia to another, usually a stranger and often a

has elicited apparent memories, especially of childhood abuse, that are disputed by family members and
often traumatic to the patient.
