Talk:automonosexualism

RFV discussion: April–November 2016
Seems to be a mention-only term except for one use on Google Books Chuck Entz (talk) 15:35, 3 April 2016 (UTC)


 * The German translation Automonosexualismus seems to exist. So why shouldn't the English term exist too? Examples I found by a Google books search:
 * Usages:
 * Understanding Asexuality: "Automonosexualism is rare and has sometimes been associated with transgendered individuals ([..]). For example, the phenomenon of autogynephilia ([...]) is a type of automonosexualism ([..])".
 * Gender Dysphoria: "Narcissism may occur in at least two ways: (1) as an erotic arousal and admiration of oneself dressed in female attire, involving no other person but themselves (automonosexualism); and (2) [...]"
 * Counseling the Homosexual, cited in Guild of Catholic Psychiatrists and Counseling the Invert: "More common than this automonosexualism are the cases of homosexuality, in which [...]"
 * A Critical Digest of Some of the Newer Work Upon Homosexuality in Man and Woman (?): "Some transvestites seem to satisfy their sexual longings in making up as women or men respectively (automonosexualism)."
 * Mentionings:
 * Campbell's Psychiatric Dictionary: "automonosexualism  Rare. Narcissism (q.v.)."
 * Unsure:
 * Studies in the Psychology of Sex: "Rohleder, who confers upon this condition the ponderous name of automonosexualism" ["name of", could be a mentioning]
 * The Transgender Studies Reader: "belongs in the area of what Havelock Ellis calls autoeroticism, that Hermann Rohleder has described as automonosexualism" ["calls" and then "described as", could be a mentioning]
 * Sexual Strands: "Aroused by own body (automonosexualism)" [usage, but no complete sentence]
 * Variant Sexuality: Research and Theory: "If the object is homosexual, we get a variation called 'narcissism' or 'automonosexualism' [...]" ["called", could be a mentioning]
 * So the English term seems to exist. -Ikiaika (talk) 06:04, 15 July 2016 (UTC)

 * McDougallin his Abnormal Psychology, while most sympathetic towards Freud's general conceptions, gives but small space to Narcissism. Rohleder, indeed, places it preferably with the awkward name of automonosexualism.


 * I've gone through the citations in the entry and removed the ones that are mentions, leaving three uses. Unfortunately, two of the three are by Anthony F. Bogaert, so we still need one more to keep the entry. —Mr. Granger (talk • contribs) 16:23, 17 September 2016 (UTC)
