Exhibitionism is a behavior done to attract attention.[1] In everyday life, extroverts may be exhibitionists.

As a histrionic personality disorder,[2] exhibitionism is the pleasure a person feels by showing their breasts, genitals or buttocks to strangers to shock or frighten them.

Less severe forms of exhibitionism are streaking, mooning, and flashing.
