Although not physically harmful, the behavior is socially atypical, could disrupt relationships, and could be an insult to others, so it would be considered a sexual disorder. c. An action is or isn't a sexual disorder depending on applicable local laws, so whether this meets the definition of a sexual disorder depends on the laws where he behaves this way. d.
