The online paraphilia community sometimes resorts to using various codes to represent paraphiliac identities. This is both an aesthetic choice and a way to avoid censorship.

The codes, presented in this article, may seem inconsistent or overlapping, because they were created by different people who were not aware of each other. The information is gathered both from resources that are supportive of all these identities[1] and the ones that are prejudiced against some[2] and may require further correction. 

History

It is highly likely that the first example of such code is the zoophile ζ, which predates all known zoophile flags, going back to at least early 2001[3]. Map μ and general paraphiliac πφ appeared in 2019. 2020 saw the "map emoji of the month" trend, and creating emoji codes for paraphilias became widespread since 2022.

  3. Zetapin.de via Wayback Machine, a stylized zeta logo can be seen in the top left corner.

  12. umbrella term, reclaimed.
