ʻO ka Gerontophilia kahi moe kolohe ʻoi aʻe a liʻiliʻi paha. ʻO kāna mālama ʻana he psychotherapeutic a / a lāʻau lapaʻau paha. 

ʻO Gerontophilia he paraphilia (ʻano ʻē aʻe (para) o ka mea e huki ai i ke kumuhana (philia) e like me ka pedophilia, bestiality, necrophilia… ʻO Gerontophilia kahi hoʻohihi moe kolohe no ka poʻe kahiko loa.

Ua wehewehe ka Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM) i nā paraphilias "he manaʻo hoʻokamakama, manaʻo noʻonoʻo e hoʻoulu i ka moe kolohe, a me nā ʻano hana maʻamau e pili ana i nā mea ola ʻole; ka ʻeha a i ʻole ka hoʻohaʻahaʻa ʻana iā ia iho a i ʻole ka hoa; nā keiki a i ʻole nā ​​​​mea ʻae ʻole ʻē aʻe, a e hoʻolōʻihi ʻia ma kahi o ʻeono mahina. Aia kēia ʻano ma ke kumu o ka ʻeha a i ʻole ka hoʻololi ʻana i ka hana kaiapili. ʻOi aku ka nui a i ʻole ka liʻiliʻi o ka paraphilia i ka hiki i ka poʻe maʻi ke komo i ka hana moekolohe e pili ana i ke aloha a me ka pānaʻi. 

ʻOi aku a emi iki paha ka paraphilia. ʻO ke kiʻekiʻe o ka paʻakikī e pili ana i ka hana a me kona pinepine. 

ʻO kēia nā maʻi i kapa ʻia ma mua he hoʻomāinoino. 

E like me nā paraphilias ʻē aʻe, ma waho o ka masochism, ʻaʻole i pili ka gerontophilia i nā wahine. ʻO ka lakio kāne he 20 kāne no 1 wahine (1 gerontophile wahine no 20 kāne). ʻO ka hōʻailona o ka gerontopophilia wale nō ke kū mai i ka wā e hana ai ke kanaka gerontophile i ka hana a i ʻole e hoʻopilikia nui ʻia e kāna mau manaʻo. Hiki ke hoʻomaka ʻo Gerontophilia e like me nā paraphilia ʻē aʻe i ka wā ʻōpio a i ʻole ka wā makua. Hiki ke paʻa nā koho Gerontophilic (pono nā manaʻo noʻonoʻo a i ʻole nā ​​mea hoʻoulu paraphilic i mea e hoʻoulu ai i ka erotic arousal a he ʻāpana mau nō ia o ka hana moe kolohe) a i ʻole e ʻike ʻia i ka episodically, i ka wā o ke kaumaha. 

E like me nā paraphilia ʻē aʻe, he maʻi maʻamau ka gerontophilia. No laila pono ke kākoʻo. 

Nui nā lāʻau lapaʻau no ka gerontophilia, e like me nā paraphilia ʻē aʻe. 

ʻO nā ʻāpana nui ʻelua o ka mālama ʻana he psychotherapies (cognitive-behavioral therapy, sexological care, etc.) a me ka mālama ʻana i ka lāʻau, ʻo ia hoʻi, ka mālama ʻana i nā mea kōkua hoʻokele (kekahi mau antidepressants kiʻekiʻe a me nā lāʻau hormonal antiandrogens, hiki ke lawe wale ʻia me ka ʻae o ka maʻi).

Hiki ke hoʻohui ʻia ka hoʻokele psychotherapeutic a me ka hoʻokele pharmacological. 

Ke manaʻo nei kēia mau lapaʻau e hoʻomalu i nā moemoeā paraphilic a me nā ʻano a kōkua i ka poʻe paraphilic me nā gerontophiles e noʻonoʻo ʻokoʻa e pili ana i kā lākou moekolohe. 

Ke moe ka gerontophilia me ka ʻelemakule ʻae, he kūlana kānāwai ia, aʻo nā paraphilia ʻē aʻe, e like me ka pedophilia a i ʻole voyeurism ʻaʻole kānāwai.
