Final Answer :
E
Explanation :
Gender dysphoria is not considered a paraphilic disorder in DSM-5. It is a condition in which an individual experiences significant distress or discomfort due to a mismatch between their gender identity and their biological sex, which is now classified as a gender dysphoria, not a paraphilic disorder.
