I'm not an authority on this by any means, but since you have normal sexual thoughts and urges, and your fetishes don't seem to impair you on a social or emotional level, I'd say that they're fetishes, not paraphilia. But others may have another opinion or outlook on this, so don't take my word for it. (:

Best Wishes,
