Description
Voyeuristic Disorder is characterized by recurrent and intense sexual arousal from observing an unsuspecting person who is naked, in the process of disrobing, or engaging in sexual activity. This arousal manifests in fantasies, urges, or behaviors over a period of at least 6 months, and the individual has acted on these urges with a nonconsenting person, or the urges cause clinically significant distress or impairment. It is distinct from consensual voyeurism (e.g., mutual sexual viewing) which is not pathological.
